Venue
The Fogcutters have it all together! The drummer keeps everyone playing like a well-oiled machine! Excellent concert! We enjoyed so many different singers; it was a great mix of entertainers. The one thing we would have changed is to turn the volume down when the 3 guys played (can't remember the band's name). They were a touch beyond the sweet spot. Overall, we loved the whole concert!
A very talented ensemble over-amplified past distortion to the point of pain. Much of the audience seems not to notice. I was quite disappointed, as previous events at the State were well-presented.
Love the big band musicians!!! Sometimes their sound was too big and drowned out the singer(s). Great to hear original Christmas songs and creative interpretations of traditional Christmas songs! Was hard to understand the words with some musicians - due to position of the mic or the acoustics in the State Theater? A printed or electronic program would have been helpful so we could know the names of musicians and singers to follow beyond that show. Would have been nice to have encore include the band not just a singer - we were there to hear The Fogcutters after all.
The Fogcutters Christmas Extravaganza was Fabulous!
This is an extremely talented group of players. The problem was that the band overpowered the singers for almost every selection. Only selections using just a few instruments allowed us to hear the singers. We would recommend no amplification on any of the brass or woodwind instruments and light amplification on the keyboards and guitars
It was fantastic! Best thing about it was it was a whole family type event. Wholesome fun.
The Fogcutters Christmas show was fantastic! The musicians were all extraordinary and dressed in festive attire. Singers were outstanding. It was the perfect holiday show and they kept the audience dancing
This was an amazing show! Just WOW. All of it - their voices, the instruments.
So much fun! Absolutely an incredible show full of great music and so much cheer.
We have enjoyed the State Theatre for prior concerts. Great staff experience with entering, security, reception. This Fogcutter event was “General Admission”. Now we know how different this is from a “seated” concert. With GA audience standing blocks seated views. More of the audience are walking around or talking at the bar in the auditorium. For us this was highly distracting to the performance experience. Now we know.
