Music good but way too loud
by Nor on 2022-04-29Commodore Ballroom - VancouverThe music was good but it was way too loud so we could not really enjoy it. Without earplugs we would have harmed our ears severely.

About
MOGWAI IN CONCERT:
Scotland-based post-rock band Mogwai have been enchanting audiences for nearly 20 years with their ambient instrumentals and guitar-driven sound. At their mesmerizing live performances they play their down-tempo hits with precision and ease, vibing off each other beneath tranquil projected images that perfectly compliment their experimental sonic environments. Whether they’re playing new tracks from their 2014 release Rave Tapes or treating fans to old classics like “Auto Rock,” Mogwai are sure to leave fans awestruck on their upcoming world tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
School friends Stuart Braithwaite, Dominic Aitchison, and Martin Bulloch got together to form Mogwai in 1995, naming their band after the furry characters in the film Gremlins. The Scotland natives released their debut album Mogwai Young Team two years later, introducing listeners to their signature instrumental sound. Since then, the post-rock band has released eight studio albums including 2014's Rave Tapes, which peaked on the Scottish charts at No. 2 -- their highest charting album yet. Mogwai are constantly expanding their repertoire with new projects -- whether they're collaborating with Gary Lightbody (Snow Patrol) or composing soundtrack music for the film Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait, they never fail to present their music in a unique way. Mogwai won't disappoint as they share their hit-filled sets with eager fans on a string of upcoming tour dates.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

by Pinseeker7 on 2022-04-23Commodore Ballroom - VancouverThere is no experience quite like a live show with this band.Mogwai encapsulates the moments of our time on this earth;with musical vocabulary that makes you really feel it beyond the cerebral fortitude.’As the Love Continues’ despite all the attempts to snuff it out in your home or in your heart. I would follow this band around like a lost puppy into Ukraine and beyond….. See you down the road……. Scotland forever 🏴
Rating: 2 out of 5 Show started much too late
by Chrism on 2022-04-22Commodore Ballroom - VancouverThe posted start time for the gig was 7:00, but the opening act didn’t hit the stage until after 9:00. It was 10:00 by the time Mogwai began. Tue band was great, but had to leave early as it was a work night. :(

Rating: 5 out of 5 They never disappoint
by Lisa on 2022-04-14The Danforth Music Hall - TorontoThey never spare their energy! They give it all on the stage :) I like their "no frills" approach, everything goes into the performance. Master of sound, they can create wonderful crescendos rich of pathos and suddenly slow into a sweet resolution. I love the emotions they give me. They played old and new songs, well balanced to warm up and involve the audience. I really appreciated Nina Nastasia, that I didn't know before this gig, I think she is amazing!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Feeling Mogwai
by Elyssa on 2022-04-14The Danforth Music Hall - TorontoI've listened to Mogwai a lot over the past five years, but this was my first time seeing them. They're cemented as one of my favourite bands and live music shows ever. The sound at the Danforth was brilliant on Monday night, and I could "feel" the music. A fully sensorial experience!

by Colin on 2022-04-14The Danforth Music Hall - TorontoCan't say enough about how good they are live. If you're a fan of post-rock - there's a reason why these guys are seen as the arguable inventors of the genre.
