Took my 2 sons and brother in law. Youngest son’s first concert and what a show it was. Rock at its finest. Brilliant set list and flawless performances. Good mix of new and older songs. Ash were great support act too. We all really enjoyed ourselves. Youngest son’s first concert kept saying “I k ew they’d be good, but I didn’t think they’d be that good!” We weren’t disappointed at all and hope the new album is a great success. Fantastic, good job guys.

I was right up front despite my arthritic legs, and never felt any pain until the next day. I've been a fan of The Darkness since their first album, and they don't disappoint live. Terrific live shows! Justin gave me his last pick near the end of the show, and his hands were as soft as a baby's butt! I'll go to see them again anytime they come to Kansas City and I'm still alive.....I love 💕 those guys.

Phenomenal!!! The best live band I've ever seen (and I've seen some amazing big acts in my time). Justin's voice is just perfect and the guitar playing from Justin, Frankie, Dan and Rufus was hard, glorious and rocked us to the core!! I woke up the next morning with my long lost mo-jo!! I was finally raring to go after 5 yrs of being low. Absolutely recommend seeing The Darkness live ❤️ thank you guys ❤️ xxx

Been wanting to see these guys for the last 20 odd years, finally the stars aligned and I was not disappointed. Having watched plenty of videos of them performing live on YouTube I had an idea what to expect and despite the smaller venue and crowd the guys brought the same energy they'd give at an audience of 100,000. Would absolutely recommend going to see them even if you only know the hits 👍

These guys always kick ass. All the charisma and prowess of the best. If only the Foo Fighters could have someone up front who could capture an audience this well, they might be as large. Gigs should be overblown, they should be epic and they shouldn't ever take the thing too seriously. In a world that seems to have forgotten how to collectively enjoy themselves, we have The Darkness to remind us all once more.

The Darkness puts on a fantastic show. They are extremely talented artists and they have a powerful sound that screams rock and roll. It’s evident how much effort they put into preparation because the songs sound great and they are very engaged with the crowd. They make it a really fun and satisfying experience. I was smiling throughout the show! St. Andrew’s is also an awesome venue.

Great show - short but sweet, as I've heard people say. Six songs from the new album, a bit of banter with the crowd, and a try out of some segues and dance sequences. The venue is a great place to get very close to the band - if you get in early and to the front. Audience area is narrow and has lots of view obscuring pillars.

Bloody magnificent! Nonstop face melting rock that pleases the ears and rocks you to the core of your soul. Justin Hawkins is the ULTIMATE frontman! He’s energetic, charismatic and sounds every bit as good, if not even better, live as he does on the records! 10 out of 10 these guys are 100%. I would highly recommend everyone who likes music to see them live! Viva The Darkness!

Brilliant, pure enjoyment and great entertainment. Great venue too as everyone had an uninterrupted view. Loved the fact there was a change of roles for one song and Rufus was excellent at singing. This is what makes this band unusual - they are all great entertainers and obviously love being together and playing together. Makes for a fabulous evening. Thanks guys x

They did not disappoint, I was entertained the whole way through. It was a great set list with a good mix of some of the oldies and the new stuff. What a fantastic night, I loved it. Ash were excellent too, a great opening gig. I’m looking forward to getting my hands on Dreams on Toast at the end of March.
