Dawes Tickets

I was fortunate enough to see Dawes perform two shows at different venues in the same week and both were terrific. What was really great is how they adapted to the audience with a more relaxed (but still rocking vibe) at the first and harder at the second. At both shows they performed for around two hours and there was minimal overlap between the two set lists. Audience engagement was tight and sincere at both shows and both offered a variety of configurations - full band, Taylor & Griff duo and Taylor solo. The set lists were intelligently structured and superbly delivered.

I felt like the band was in a hurry to leave. Played too many songs with LA theme and from the latest album. Should have played more of the older tunes. Lead singer butchered the lyrics on A Little Bit of Everything. Good jams, however.

Incredible show by Dawes. Just incredible! Great seats too!

The entire experience was amazing from my entry into the venue to the end of the great concert.

We never miss an opportunity to attend a Dawes performance at the Fillmore. They always deliver a great show and the songs and fellow fans fill our hearts with love and understanding. The concert vibe is mildly reminiscent of Grateful Dead shows.

So glad live music is back. Dawes is easily in my top two shows of 2024. Right up there with Rise Against. And both those shows Were a shared experience with my 24 year old son who share a common interest in attending concerts. We don’t share the same tastes in music and that’s how it should be. I do believe he left the Dawes performance as a new fan of Dawes. I have always been. Connecting with my son through live music is a beautiful thing

Really good performance and great seating in the suite. Really great service from the staff there as well. Wonderful experience

One of the best bands to see live imo they really rock out with their own sound and keep you in the moment , very underrated but understand why if you don't see them perform Live a must see once band

I have seen Taylor solo(Grand Rapids) and Dawes outdoors at Evanston golf course previously. Dawes put on great full show at the Salt Shed and the venue was amazing.

5th time seeing Dawes. They were great, as usual. Lead singer started getting a bug just before the show and was beginning to get some voice issues. He asked the crowd to step up more. Dawes is really skilled at building a communal vibe out of every audience, so this should have made it even better. Much of the audience gave back and Taylor did an admirable job pushing through and overcoming his vocal issues. He even took on an intimate song with just him alone onstage with an acoustic guitar. (A Little Bit of Everything). The problem was the venue. The Salt Shed is a massive open space with limited seating way at the back. It's a new venue and is Chicago's see and be seen venue right now. Admittedly, we ended up in a tough crowd spot with a few real drunk groups who were more interested in talking to each other and barely knew the show was going on. No paying attention to what the band was laying down, cheering only on the cue of the crowd's applause. It outright ruined the emotional centerpiece of the show with the crowd filling in the quiet of Taylor's acoustic masterpiece with their own babbling. Could we have moved? Yes. But the problem seemed to exist throughout the crowd. This was the most tepid response from an audience I have ever seen for Dawes and that's why. They are a band that draws the audience in and then gives back to the crowd 5-fold to create magic night-by-night. Unfortunately, too many in the crowd seemed to be there to say they were at The Salt Shed, instead of being there to hear Dawes. What had all the makings and opportunity for a show of the year kind of night, carelessly sloshed away.

This was my first highly anticipated show at the Salt Shed. I absolutely loved the venue from the drink selection to the food to the atmosphere and the design. I have been a big fan of Dawes for many years, but I’ve never had a chance to see them. So happily, I finally did! Taylor’s voice was out for the night, but he made up for it and still sounded great! I swear he put a little extra energy behind his guitar work to make up for it and boy, did it shine. The rest of the band was absolutely killer as well and that rhythm guitar player really surprised me.

My 4th time to see DAWES at The Taft Theater in Cincinnati (5th overall) and each time they take it to a new level. With a new bassist, keyboardist and percussionist, the stage presentation seemed more subdued, but not in a bad way. To me, they were a tight unit, the proverbial well-oiled machine who displayed incredible musicianship in a no-nonsense manner. The nice thing about their concerts at the Taft is that the vast majority of fans are there to listen and not talk through the show. We were sitting in the balcony box seats because fans end up standing in the lower-level seating area in front of the stage. Can't blame them, being that close and being drawn in to the show, but I prefer being able to hear among folks with the same intentions. The volume was loud but not overbearing, and just "warm"enough to really feel the groove. I left the show with a full heart that comes from hearing a magical, inspirational performance and a longing for the next time they tour in my area. Well, well done!!!

went for the the opener, Winnetka Bowling League, but Dawes was great! the venue was a beautiful, intricate, traditional theatre and provided a unique atmosphere for a rock concert. audience energy was mid at the beginning…but we got em grooving!

One of the best bands touring. Love them and will see them anytime they are in town

Dawes put on an amazing show! That was my first time and they far exceeded my expectations. What a talented group of guys. Wow! Just Wow!

Beautiful venue but unfortunately Dawes was sick which resulted in lower energy than usual

Always fabulous performances from this great group! I’ve seen them many times and even in this small not sold out venue they gave a great performance. Loved the new material and can’t wait to hear entire new album. Taylor is a marvelous singer songwriter who constantly inspires me to keep writing my own songs. I hope to see them again soon!! May they stay together!!!

The band did not disappoint. They played everything we wanted to hear and gave us some new tune to love

This was my second time seeing Dawes at this venue. The show was great, as usual. This is the nicest venue I am fortunate to live next to. Beautiful setting with awesome sound. Staff is nice and helpful.

Fantastic show tonight! Taylor and brother Griffin were spectacular as usual. I was a bit concerned know they had lost two members, bass and keys, but the new members were terrific and filled in admirably. Also, Lucius provide great harmonies on Dawes songs, and they played awesome songs as well. Now a Lucius fan too. What's more, the band played some lesser songs, perhaps ones that would benefit from the added female harmony of Lucius. Missed songs like, Somewhere along the Way, Things Happen, We're All Gonna Die, and A Little Bit of Everything to name a few. I loved the opening and closer being cover songs. That Floyd, Sine on You Crazy Diamond song really popped, drums came in perfectly, and the end song of Cocker version of With A Little Help from my friends was life affirming. I can't wait to see if/when Taylor and Griffin get new members and the next album. Hopefully won't be too long. I actually purchase CD and vinyl of all their albums, not a bad record in the lot.
