Forbidden Dallas Concert reviews
Excellent Set at a Pretty Good Venue
Phoenix's performance was absolutely wonderful. They have a sort of sheepish swagger to them that is quiet. The setlist was incredible, and I thought they did an amazing job. The show was well-paced, and it's amazing to see how much fun they're having onstage and just how much they enjoy what they're doing. Even though Forbidden wasn't able to make it, the stand-in from Two Door Cinema Club didn't miss a beat (pun intended).
The vocals were generally good, and I thought the sound mixing wasn't bad. Things sounded a little mushy when the band let loose into some of their louder crescendos, especially guitar and bass. The venue wasn't bad. The only major complaint I have was the amount of smoking going on around me. I was surprised there wasn't any security action taken to put them out. To be honest, it just smelled bad and was a distraction from the show.
