Blessed with good weather and the band that I grew up with! Acoustics were great and the music, legendary!
Crowded house sounded incredible. Played all the songs we wanted to hear. Great show !
Great concert, great seats and great performance by Neil Finn: My one and only big complaint is that persons sitting in the seats immediately in front of the gap between section 101 and the section in front of the stage, MUST be made to be seated! The entire front row was standing most of the show, forcing our entire section to be standing too, as the sight line to the stage was fully obstructed by the inconsiderate and selfish first row audience.
One of the best Alternative bands of the 90s with a good live presence
This is a band I've been dying to see for a very, very long time... and the wait was over as I had the privilege to see Crowded House at what is becoming one of my favorite venues in Toronto. They played most of their best songs, and even a few earlier songs from Neil's earlier days with Split Enz which was a pleasant surprise. It was a great show at a great venue... and it was a very memorable night.
Fantastic show. We love their songs, old and new. Wish there was time for more of Neil's solo music, but hoping he can return for another solo show soon. So many beautiful songs, such a fun show. Don't miss these guys if you ever have the opportunity to see them live. Finn's gorgeous music, and his voice sounds as great as it did when we first saw him 40 (gasp!) years ago. Was nice to see him do a few on the piano, as well. What a great evening. Big thanks!
The opening act was Spirit of the Bear. Well, worth adding to your playlist. Great energy and sound. Crowded House? How can you possibly say enough about this amazing band. Fantastic music, voices, harmonies, audience interaction. They are the entire package. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Please come back to Toronto!!!!!🙏🙏❤️
The only reason it is not rated as great were the sound issues with a couple of songs. I understand this is an issue at this venue, where the vocals get drowned out by the instruments. Crowd was into it, singing a long to most songs and it was generally a wonderful vibe. Would love to see Crowded House return and play a smaller, indoor venue.
Neil Finn and Crowded House were amazing as always. One of the best bands to see live. Neil Finn is one of the most under-appreciated songwriters and performers out there. Beautiful, haunting lyrics, beautiful melodies. So much fun to watch on stage as well with interaction with the others in the band. Thanks to the Toronto curfew they had to cut off the show after 2 hours. Never long enough!!! Hope Finn returns to Toronto soon. Venue was great, security was professional and exit was well organised. Thank you, Neil and the band for a fantastic evening! Too many highlights to mention.
Brought me back! Love summer concerts at the venue. Parking insane though to costly
You should not pay a premium for front row seats. They should really be sold as obstructed view seats because you are too close to see half the band. The camera man standing in front is us was also a bummer. Five stars for the band minus two for the crappy $eat$.
Crowded House was a bucket list for my husband and I! Amazing performance and a great band! Totally exceeded our expectations!
seats too close together and entry and exit from venue was long and tedious and funneling a crowd across a narrow bridge a problem.
So great to see Crowded House in Toronto this past weekend. I haven’t seen them live since ~1996 and was so excited to hear them play live once again. Awesome show, love Neil’s voice and lots of nostalgia from my high school days ❤️❤️
Great show, although there was a bit of a lull when they played their new material. Sound was terrible for the 1st song, but they fixed their mix right after. Overall a great concert.
Venue is amazing! Sunset, CN tower a perfect backdrop for the visiting artists. Only one sour note are the concession prices. I understand its Toronto but geez $14-$17 for a bud? At least make it a nice craft beer for that price. I guess we're all just tourists paying tourist prices aye?
Crowded house never disappoints - Neal’s voice - Nicks skills and jokes - and amazing band of sons and brothers. The set list was perfect - it really took me back to special times here and in Oz - thank for a great experience that I will add to the list! Loving the new songs as well! Welcome back!!
Great performance. Neil Finn was in great voice and his sons have injected some youthful energy to the band. Also, they played most of the hits, which was great. A wonderful evening of music, entertainment and memories. Great job Crowded House.
Venue is great! Great view lots of leg room I opening act was really enjoyable Crowded House put on an amazing show all the hits and great songs. Couldn’t b we liege how long the show was Had a fabulous time!
A great setlist, and the gents are still fun, goofy, and energetic after all these years.
