About GWAR
Blood. Spectacle. Lifestyle. Mythology. Costumes. And more blood. When you think of beloved shock-metal outfit GWAR, those words are likely the first that come to mind. And with good reason. Since forming in Richmond, Virginia in 1985, GWAR have not only managed to endure through various lineup changes, but have become one of the most beloved bands in all of metal. The only thing as sharp as their over-the-top lyrics is their mesmerizing live show which continues to make them one of the must-see, and most memorable, acts today. At a time when bands have become bland, GWAR stands out for their performances and the intimate connection with their fans. Once the lights dim and the curtain rises, fans know what they’re in for: a night of theatrics, storytelling and humor that’s more Devo than KISS. Their iconic, signature barbaric interplanetary warriors costumes may be what the wider world knows them for, but it’s their shows that continues to resonate with their devoted following. The push-and-pull between GWAR and their fans creates a visceral experience that continues to add to the band’s legend and legacy, one new tour at a time. Few, if any band, can break down a physical barrier with their audience quite like GWAR. Fluids fly, substances spray and the lust for copious amounts of fake blood [and cutting heads off, of course] leaves audiences thirsty for more. The mythological nature of their live shows may be at the forefront of people’s minds, but it is GWAR's meticulously crafted songs blend (ING) satire, chaos and violence, made them cultural icons.

Bravo GWAR!! That’s some of the best audio I’ve ever heard! Perfect tone, crisp, but not painful. Stage was busy and crazy detailed, excellent job painting the place red, too!! The crowd... aggressive, energetic, and... ORGANIZED?! Everyone in attendance was in a great mood and I don’t think a single fan or slave left the show with anything but complete satisfaction.

Good, informative interesting movie but not quite as much fun as I had expected going in. A story with a lot of tragedy and conflict, but a lot of love as well. Getting to honestly know the people behind the band is like getting to know any human, truth is the only way to go but sometimes it's gonna hurt.

I fucking love Gwar, they’re from Richmond Virginia and they played in Richmond. They’ve always been so much fun to see live, I always leave the concert dirty and stained. And the special gas that they have and the things that they do on stage is so cool and get me pumped every time I see them.

They literally had the best performance that I've ever seen in a concert before the skits,the stage set up and even the music all combined into one made me so glad that I chose to get free tickets for the show and the supporting acts were excellent too I can't wait until they come back to Cleveland.

GWAR - The Stone Aged Tour Everything was epically awesome!! Did the "Meet and Beat" prior to the show, met some amazing fans, and rode the rail the entire night. The Revolution Concert House is a great venue, with plenty of area, limitless libations (fast and plentiful lines) and FREE PARKING!!

I have been to many concerts and this was the best concert/show I have ever been to. I can't believe I only paid $25 a pop for the tickets. They are such amazing entertainers and I loved the blood spewing into the crowd! I would most definitely see them again hands down!!!

Top gig as always from GWAR played a mix of old and new and even though they were limited with stage space, they stilm managed a fantasticly theatrical performance. Always reccomend an artist like GWAR they covered punk, mental and thrash through the years amongst others and managed the same during their show
