How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
Hey all. A newb here to TABN, but not to Alter Bridge. Original fan since One Day Remains. Just curious how many shows folks have gone to?
I've managed to catch them on every tour, except for One Day Remains (they didn't play near me, and I couldn't travel at the time).
Nov. 10, 2007 - Spokane
Jan. 1, 2011 - Seattle
April 24, 2011 - San Francisco
Oct. 25, 2014 - San Francisco
Dec. 16, 2017 - Spokane
>>>Looking forward to adding a couple more on the Walk the Sky tour!

10-17-2007 Hartford, CT. Webster Theater
7-29-2008 Providence, RI. Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel
9-5-2011 Worcester, MA. The Palladium
4-22-2014 Boston, MA. Royale Boston
10-9-2014 Worcester, MA. The Palladium
5-3-2017 Providence, RI. Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel
There is nothing like my first time seeing them. It was also my first concert ever. It was one of the best days of my life. Hearing a few hundred people sing the OYE chorus was incredible. I was 15 and it was like watching a Youtube video come to life. I was completely mesmerized. Myles was singing like he had something to prove. He kept locking eyes with me and smiling. I was shook. That was a great night. I'd do anything to relive that.

Fortress Tour - Wembley Arena, London
TLH Tour - O2 Arena, London
W/ Parallax Orchestra - Royal Albert Hall, London
Not many, but the ones I've been to were pretty big ones. I would have loved to have seen them before then, but I didn't really have any disposable income at the time.

Re: How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
Sadly, only one. Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles - October 26th, 2014. Was the final show of the Fortress tour.
I'm going to change that pretty soon and add two more to the tally in September. One at the Album Listening Party in Orlando and then their show at the Ritz in Raleigh, NC, two days later.

Re: How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
Only 3 but I count it as one since the 2nd time they were opening and I missed most of their set and Myles was sick and the 3rd time I missed most of their set (they were part of a summer festival).
1st time- October 9,2004- Electric Factory, Philadelphia,Pa -Amazing show in a small venue
2nd time-October 25, 2005-Bryce Jordan Center- opened for 3 Doors Down & Shinedown
3rd time- May 22, 2011- Camden for the 2011 MMRBQ- only really remember 1 song just looked at the setlist and I guess I caught half of it
I really want to see them when they come to Philly this year but haven't got tickets yet

Re: How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
Only 1, unfortunately. Nashville in 2016. But moving closer to Spokane in a few days so i'll be able to catch more shows whenever they tour that area.
Re: How Many AB Shows Have You Attended?
I think I attended 5 shows so far with number 6 coming in November. I'm really fortunate to live in Berlin where they play every tour.
I don't know the exact dates anymore, but must be sth. like this:
2010 (?) Berlin as support for 3 Doors Down (How AB stole 3DD the show was amazing, even though they only played 6 or 7 songs)
2011 Berlin AB III tour cycle
2013 Berlin Fortress
2016 Berlin TLH
2017 Leipzig TLH
I love this band so much.
What still bugs me though is that the sound at AB concerts in Germany seems to be almost always rather bad. I keep wondering why that is. If you have a look at eventim and the German reviews you find many with 1 star and it's all about the sound, never about the band or performance. Is it similar in other cities/countries? They went down to a 3.86 rating on eventim just because of the sound.

Lisbon 2013 Fortress
Lisbon 2017 TLH
The sound must be a general problem, not just in Germany. The few comments I read on the internet about the sound of their concerts were not positive at all. The two shows I went to were easily the worst. It was really bad but in terms of performance were excellent!

That was such a cool show in an amazing venue.. love the special setlist they used in that show, bringing back some older songs since it was the first time they played Portigal...Silvercreed wrote:Lisbon 2013 Fortress
