A Flock of Seagulls Tickets

The sound for Flock of Seagulls was awful. You physical felt the base beat in your heart.

We loved the Spoons and Men Without Hats. Flock of Seagulls had no band and did not engage audience. Otherwise a great night with lots of memories!

Caught the Spoons, Men Without Hats and Flock (?) of Seagulls at the River Cree Casino. Spoons were a very pleasant surprise and Men Without Hats were fun to watch. Flock of Seagulls pretty much sucked any energy developed by the first 2 bands. Sound was absolutely horrible and Flock of Seagulls consisted of Mike Score and Gord from the Spoons. Many people left early into the Flocks set. Don't bands do a sound check before their shows? Felt ripped off.

I don't like to complain to much but, The lead up presentation "80's theme" could have been presented better from start to finnish. Casino Rama needs to organize and present all shows a lot better then they they have been. The bands were good but introductions were not organized at all. Intermissions between bands was just people racing to get more alcohol. People that did get up and dance in the aisles were told to sit down for safety reasons. I grew up in the 80's and liked to dance more so then today's generation. I realized that I remember all 3 band from their hit singles like most of the 80's bands, no fault of the band, that's just the way it was back then. Like I said it was just ok. And I LOVE the 80's music:)

Concert was excellent. All 3 bands were really good. We sat in our preferred spot near the soundboard. We really like the venue and the easy parking access. Here are the problems: A-It would have been nice to know "approximately" when the concert ended. It was the longest one of the 8 we have been to in the last 4 years. We missed our shuttle. B-The lineups for drinks inside the venue are ridiculously Long and Slow. I missed most of Men without Hats just standing in line.

We thought this band was extremely tight and still very good. A lot of the songs did sound similar, but nonetheless amazing. The drummer was fantastic too. He looked like he could do it in his sleep, and loved the spinning of the drumsticks (amazing)! We loved it, however couldn't get to see "I Ran", had to catch the bus. Loved it!

Spoons were great wished they had closed the show instead of being opening act. Would have much preferred to have flock of seagulls open. First time back to the venue since they have puts bars in the theatre. Not impressed with that move at all, constant disruptions from people getting up and down to get drinks. Made the overall experience less than great.

Spoons and Men without Hats were awesome. Very disappointed with Flock of Seagulls. No energy and sound was terrible.

Spoons: Last saw them up close beside the stage at "The Key in Bala" many years ago. Still sounding great! Minor take away is that the current keyboard player is challenged to duplicate the original sound, though he is very talented doing good job at recreating most of it. Tough position to fill in for. I thought that the base sound was a little too dominant at times. Attended concert with my newspaper friend from Burlington, ON (he lives across the street from Aldershot High School, former school of band members). In 2015, he interviewed them at a reunion event. Men Without Hats: Very surprising how good they still are. Even their "new" song is good. It was obvious how dedicated the lead singer is to staying "fit" enough in order to supply much energy on stage. Excellent job by keyboard player and rest of group. A Flock of Seagulls: A mixed review from me. If I had looked at earlier concert footage from the past couple of years, I would have understood my disappointment: that the vocals seem different than the original vocals. Seems to a combination of the lead's vocal abilities? and the fact that all of the other vocals are replacement members. So, the overall "lower?" sound of the vocals, especially on their biggest hit, is understandable. Big fan of their cataloge of songs, probably underrated in the past. A complete surprise on Spoons' lead vocalist appearance in the group (my fault in not keeping up to date).

Everything was great this night. Only complaint from me would have to be for the sound for The Seagulls. It could have been much better. Some people were leaving during the SEAGULLS set. Mind you besides the sound not being good they didnt come on until 10;:45pm. Othe than that, the show was great. 70% of the crowd was up dancing throughout the night. Each setlist from each band was perfect.

While the Spoons and Men without Hats were excellent, uplifting and a joy to see Flock of Seagulls were a big disappointment. They played 90% of their melancholy unpopular songs people didn't recognize (they weren't from a new album) and played only 2 of their popular songs! Many people walked out. I don't understand groups not playing their most popular songs to fans when touring it just doesn't make sense why they make this mistake.

The Spoons and Men without Hats were fabulous!! Great energy and really fun! When the Flock took the stage you could feel all of the energy getting sucked out of the auditorium. Almost left the building at that point. Too bad because up until that point the evening was a lot of fun.

Well ...... The Spoons were fantastic and should have been the headliner. Sometime you go to these shows and think “that’s their song?!!!” I didn’t know they sang that. Well not this show. Men without hats and Flock of seagulls were disappointing. Had to leave before I RAN was even played.

Right of the bat, the Spoons were great but I was hoping for more tunes. Men without Hats were great as well and again I was hoping for more. Flock of Seagulls however disappointed me with the song selections for most of the performance except for the last few...clearly there was something going on with Mike's voice, didn't seem clear and in tune. Great job Gord on guitar. Many people left during the last act, never seen this happen before.

Spoons came out flying, with a high energy and great sounding performance. Men Without Hats continued the energy and fun to sing along with for sure! Very disappointed with Flock of Seagulls, perhaps I wasn't as big of a fan as I thought. Had to wait until the very end for the 2 most popular songs, and with 3 bands, that was 3 hours after start. Gordon Deppe playing with them was the highlight in my eyes, great job by him playing with both bands!

I think you should have made the Spoons the main act. They were awesome. Men without hats were also great but i fount the Flock of Seaguls were unprepared, and unorganized. the only reason i stayed to watch them was because of Gordon Deppe. And i still left early because i felt like it dragged on. Maybe they should have opened and kept the good stuff for at the end.

The openers - Spoons & Men without hats were awesome. We were up singing & dancing! These guys needed to be on after Flock as they were by far the better groups. Flock of Seagulls were boring - I just wanted to leave. Really don’t have the same vocals but their incessant keyboarding was cringe worthy.

The Spoons & Men Without Hats were awesome. Both bands were entertaining & spot on. Flock of Seagulls was rather disappointing. The drummer had fun and was entertaining to watch. Gord Deppe was good. Frankly, it’s time for Mike to retire. 😬

The Flock of Seagulls should have been the opening act. The music was ok but the vocals were horrible. They have very little material to be deemed a headliner. The Spoons were top notch. Men without Hats is a one hit wonder.

Spoons, Men Without Hats and A Flocks of Seagulls put on a great show. Great sounds and lighting at Casino Rama. I have seen each of these bands 2 or more times and they still put on a great show!! A Flock of Seagulls was bit less energetic this show -- but hey we're all getting older. :)
