Stereophonics Tickets

Great venue with acoustics. Amazing performance by Stereophonics! Always impressed with them. They keep getting better and better:):)

Absolutely brill can’t wait for their next tour would recommend the band and venue.

I'd not seen these guys before and was blown away. Great mix of new album songs and older classics. Tight, they seem to enjoy playing with each other and the sound was great! Had a great time!!!

This was an excellent concert. 26 songs, one after another, I don't know where they get the energy. Kelly Jones was amazing. The only downside were other fans. A lot of people in the audience were talking throughout the 2 hours 15 minutes performance, others were so drunk, they were spilling their drinks onto other attendees, or pushing their way forward with no regard for others. Shame about these slobs, the venue is otherwise fantastic and you can get close to the stage if you arrive early enough. Great sound too.

Outstanding live band; a lot of energy with great varied selection of music from its many albums with reliance on last several albums.

Great show in a perfect place to see concerts, they should be playing bigger venues in the US and I don't know why.

There was about 400 people at the show which made it easy to see from anywhere in the floor. The crowd was easy going. Stereophonics played just shy of a 2 hour set. Instruments and speakers sounded great and the band played harmoniously with each other. Kelly Jones interacted well with the crowd and even posed for some of the people snapping pictures which I though was hilarious.

Every now and then I check The Fillmore calendar to see what bands are playing. I had seen Stereophonics on the list and thought that their name sounded familiar but I could think of what their big song may be. I looked them up and listened to a few songs. I still wasn’t sure what their US hit(s) might have been but thought they sounded like a band I’d enjoy seeing. Stereophonics are a rock band from Wales that formed in 1992. I was thrilled that they always said San Francisco when they did the standard crowd vamping banter – “Hello San Francisco!” and “How are you doing San Francisco?” and not San Fran as many people from the UK or Europe do. Several people around me were very familiar with Stereophonics screaming as soon as they heard the first notes of their favorite songs and singing every word. I love when the crowd is really into it. Their song titled “Have A Nice Day” is a song about San Francisco. Of course the crowd at The Fillmore screamed as soon as “San Francisco Bay” was said. Other songs that were big hits with the crowd were “Indian Summer” off of their latest album, “Local Boy in the Photograph” and “The Bartender and the Thief”. Despite my not really knowing any of their songs I enjoyed this show. Good music is always fun to see even if you don’t know the words. Opening for Stereophonics was The Wind and The Wave, a duo from Austin, Texas consisting of Dwight Baker and Patricia Lynn. I really enjoyed their set and was excited that they said San Francisco instead of San Fran. Then I went to their Facebook page to see that they typed “San Fran”. When I pointed out that we hate being called San Fran they responded with “Tough shit”. They just lost a potential fan.

The Stereophonics unique strength is in their songs and Kelly Jones' singing of them - not so much the music, with the possible exception of Dakota. However the sound balance at the Fonda seemed to be 'standard rock band' and so KJ's voice was lost in the noise of the instruments and the band came over as a bit 'ordinary'. If I didn't know them and their music so well I would have been disappointed.

Stereophonics were unbelievable! Kelly Jones has such a great voice and the band has so many amazing songs... great time!
