Joe Satriani Tickets

Amazing performance by an incredible musician with a phenomenal catalogue to play from.

An evening with Joe has always been magical! This recent show, the first in Toronto post pandemic, was a return to the normal Satch fans are used to. Great show, great band, great chemistry on stage, and same old wonderful GTA crowd. Thank you Joe, all the best, and see you soon.

It was my fourth time seeing Satriani live and prior to last Saturday, had never been disappointed. But this time around, the sound was just awful. Not sure if it was the venue, the sound engineer, the musicians, or a mix of all the above? But I could hardly distinguish Joe’s virtuoso guitar playing, amongst the noise and distortion. I could go on, but in a nutshell, a show to forget. That said, I will still try to catch my favourite guitarist next time he’s around.

An amazing performance despite the sound engineering. The volume was far too loud for the size of the venue, which spoiled the overall effect of the concert and took away from Joe's amazing guitar technique and performance. We were also frustrated that the information that came with the on-line purchase made it appear that the show was starting at 8, and we arrived an hour early to pick up our tickets and get seated and have dinner. As it turned out, the doors didn't open until 8 and the show didn't start until 9. It was very misleading and lead to a frustrating experience right from the start.

Joe Satriani is an unbelievably great guitarist. His show is amazing - great lights and fantastic bandmates. He keeps getting better and better. I'm already looking forward to seeing him next time.

Joe Satriani is one of a kind. He plays with enthusiasm and doesn’t miss a beat. The energy he omits is amazing and tranquil. His fingers are machine driven so the music was perfect... It made my heart smile!!!

That was an awesome show!!! Wicked guitarist! Can't wait to see him again...

An amazing guitarist like Joe Satriani is not someone you get to witness up close and personal too often. An amazing evening with a jaw dropping performance like no other I've seen. Joe Satriani is truly a showman. The venue was amazing and the energy was five star. Great food and service too. All and all an unforgettable evening for everyone there I'm sure!!

Always a good experience at the commodore. Joe Satriani never disappointed.

Satriani is always great. He was engaged as always and played most of the songs from his new album which was great.

I waited almost 20 years to see Joe Satriani live, so I would totally go again and experience a show like this. The only negative review would be regarding the seating and the acoustics of the venue (something very important because it was a music concert) It would have been nice a more theatrical venue in order to enjoy the show more comfortably. And regarding the acoustics, at some point I needed to move to the back of the crowd because the low frequencies’ feedback was too loud and overwhelmed some of the middle and high ranges. Nothing truly major, but for a music lover that was important.

Great show! Great venue! Vancouver wasn't on the tour shirt though.

The show was amazing , beyond expectation. My only complaint is that the show should have been longer !

Good venue. Joe was excellent as usual! Staff was very pleasant and courteous.

Concert was first class. Satriani started on time, played for about 2 hours, and took one 15 min break only

This was my 5th time seeing Joe in over 12 years or so. With him, I find it's a bit of a hit or miss depending on what you're looking for. It's not a 'typical' concert, and I'll explain that below, so make sure this is exactly what you want. 1. The show was for 8pm, and Joe was on stage, performing at 8:00PM! No openers, stage and sound check already done, the show (after the encore) was done by 10:05PM. Don't show up an hour after the time on your ticket, expecting him to just be setting up the stage as you'll miss half the show. 2. Setlist: I'd consider myself to be a big Satch fan. I have a good 40-50 of his songs on my playlist at any given time. He played maybe 3 or 4 of those. It was an album tour, but even then he only played 3-4 songs of the new album. The rest were rare songs ranging from unpopular to unheard of. If you expect him to play the fan favorites or at least a good number of them, you may be disappointed. I say "may" because in some of his other shows I've been to, he has played fan favorites. It's been 50/50 in my experience. I've been to shows where half the audience walked out before the show was over. I was a bit disappointed myself not because I'm against hearing new/different/unpopular songs. But they frankly weren't that good. Nowhere close to his level - many lacked melody, buildup, highs and lows, climaxes. He could have been improvising the entire set for all I know, and I'm a trained musician with good familiarity with music theory, and Satch's style overall. 3. Bring Ear Plugs: I'm not an old man, and I go to rock/metal shows regularly. While you probably should wear ear plugs at most concerts, Satch is the only one I'd say that this is a must. His highs are set REALLY (and I mean at an eardrum-piercing level) high, probably in order to catch all of his pinch harmonics. 4. Improvisation/jamming: Usually, you get a lot of drum solos, bass solos, and the band just jamming together on the spot at a very high level which is great. Again, this is a hit or miss with Satch. I've been to shows where they've killed it. This last time, they just had a drum solo and a bit of back and forth between the guitars. 5. It seemed like work. Between the extremely early start/end times, minimal talk with the crowd between songs, little to no jamming, and the setlist, it seemed like he did not want to be there and it was just another day at the office for him counting down the minutes until he's done. It shows, and it rubs off on the rest of the band and the crowd. It happens with every artist though.

I've been listinening to Joe Satriani's music for over 20 years and the show was absolutely great!

You can't expect something different than an amazing show. I've seen Satriani multiple times and he and his crew always share the most to make it a great experience.

An excellent show! High energy, interactive and brilliant - go & see them when you can.

Seen the Legend 3 times in 3 different Venues in 2 Continents.... Mesmerizing guitaring .... Will Pay to watch Satch anywhere in the World !!!
