what a fantastic gig. definitely in my top 3 of all time. it was full of raw energy, the atmosphere was electric. the crowd was terrific. it never flagged at any stage and the band gave it 100% the whole way through. The Avetts are talented musicians, songwriters and put their heart and soul into the performance.

Honest, energetic, and moving. A great set list and wonderful show. They sounded strong and clearly are musically talented (especially the standing cellist). Fantastic!

One of the if not the best live shows i`ve been to, From their slow emotionally charged ballads to their high tempo room rocking songs.. Great vocals from both brothers, Seth`s voice is like honey dripping from a pine cone... The ballad of love and hate had the room in complete silence.. One of the only bands that surpass every expectation.. A show full of life,Energy from start to finish..

Amazing concert! Both bands were stellar and put on an awesome show. Great venue, too. Loved the lady at the back yelling at the crowd to shut their mouths during Ballad of Love and Hate. Great experience.

This was the second time I've seen these guys live and they earn every single penny of your ticket price. They are extraordinary live, a beautifully crafted set which will entertain you and leave you needing more. A beautiful message, beautifully delivered. Go see them.

Well, what a night! Not only did we get treated to an amazing double bill of Grace Potter and the Avett Brothers but every performer gave everything they had. If you know about these artists, you'll probably be as perplexed as I am that they are not better known. Grace Potter opened the show and she has such a beautiful voice which is as perfect live as on any studio recording. She seemed to be enjoying her set and I think only a small percentage of the audience knew much about her but after a couple of songs, she was winning people over big time, not least because of the quality of the musicians in the Nocturnals (Graces' band). Her performance was polished and appreciated. She promised that they would be back and I will certainly hope so. She kicked off with Never go back and her set also included Stars, Apologies, Medicine, Paris, Goodbye Kiss, Water pt1, the Lion the beat the beast - Great set Grace, thanks!
When the Avett's took to the stage, the place was buzzing. They didn't disappoint and the energy they were putting in and personality was as enjoyable as the music. It felt friendly and I felt part of it rather than just an observer and a band running through the motions. As a long time Avett fan, I was hoping they would play a good mix of old and new stuff and they did just that - Kicking off with Laundry Room and running through a real mix of old & new, fast and slow stuff...a really great collection of songs. I was really pleased when they played Paranoia and then also Talk on Indolence (after Scott had announced they were slowing stuff down - ha ha). When Seth played Ballad of Love and Hate, the audience gave him massive respect and you could have heard a pin drop - Most unusual and I was Nothing short of thankful for that (sorry for the Avett pun). Another great moment was when the 2 brothers sang unaccompanied 'Backwards with time'. It was one of those moments where you felt you were in a room with just them, just hanging out....and that's kind of how they made us feel the whole show. The guys had no massive egos getting in the way, they just seemed to be as happy as all the beaming faces I could see that we were all having some fun together. 'We would play all night if we could' said Scott 'we would stay all night if we could too' said a guy behind me and I echo that sentiment. The guys came back for an encore but with a 10pm curfew at the venue and a 2 hour set list, time ran out. So now all we can do is remember that night as one of the best ever and hope that Scott and Seth come back to see us again.

Following on from the Koko in 2010 and Shepherd's Bush Empire in 2011 I was the Avett's twice this past week - London Forum and Manchester Ritz. Both shows were brilliant - simply the best performers I've ever seen live ... tight, passionate, energetic, totally committed. That a country / folk / whatever you want to call it band can out rock most rock bands pretty much sums up where they're at.

Mumford & Sons can only dream of being this good ...

Right now let me explain, I think that the modern sound man seems to think that the kick drum and bass have to be so prominent in the mix and that every other sound being produced is struggling to get a look in, well I've found this to be the case at a large number of gigs. with some being completely ruined as a result.
I noticed this at last years Hard Rock Calling, where the big american acts who I suppose have there own soundman were outstanding in comparison to the others!
So the Avetts best numbers and the ones that got the best audience response were the quieter ones and those were minus bass and drums, these guys should be bigger than they are, thats for sure

This is the second time I have seen the Avett brothers and although their songs are excellent, they seem to have moved towards the Mumford and Sons camp and feel that there is a need for a more raucous approach to their songs. In effect their songs are much better than this and the moments when just the two of them sang together were spell binding. The vocal sound was not good through the mikes and for a band like The Avett brothers where the harmonies are superb, this is a little unforgiveable. The reaction of the crowd was amazingly supportive, but for me, not as good as last time.

I wouldn't call us hard core Avett Brother fans, but because they play so few dates in the UK, we had to go and see them. We discovered them via Dermot O'Leary's Saturday show. They were superb from the start. Thing I love about them - the diversity of their music.

Also need to say it's not often the support is right up there with the headliner, but Grace Potter and the Nocturnals deserve 5 stars of their own too.

Just a tip, upstairs at the Forum is unreserved seating and standing so you need to get there relatively early to be sure of a seat.
