22 photos and a glowing review. Utah, you are mediocre.

Very good show. Like a Storm sounded like lots of other rock/punk bands out there, but I was impressed that they were in the hall after their set signing autographs. Staind absolutely brought it tonight. Aaron Lewis is the man. Creed was awesome. I love Tremonti, Phillips, and Marshall (I'm a major Alter Bridge fan), but Stapp seemed more humble and less bombastic than before and right after the breakup. Maybe he has matured. Nevertheless, I thought it was a great rock show.

The concert was a real crowd pleaser. Each band put on a fantastic show. Creed deserves more credit than this reviewer gives them. The concert was high energy and there was great stage presence from all three bands. Creed was appreciative of the smaller crowd and we were given an intimate show with a huge spectacle. Good for them!

Absolutely great show! Like a Storm was really great for an upcoming band. Staind was good, not really my type of music though. Still they gave it a lot of energy. Creed, wow! The review didn't do this concert justice. I came in worried Stapp might not be that great, but he definitely surprised me! He had some great energy and he really knows how to work a crowd. Mark, Scott, Brian, and EROCK (touring guitarist) were solid! The little guitar jam during "What If" was pretty dang sweet! The two new songs, "Overcome" and "A Thousand Faces" were great! The new album should be pretty dang good! I think my only complaint was the lack of a real GA section on the floor! Grrrrrr! Other than that the concert was amazing!!! It's going to be great having Creed and Alter Bridge around at the same time!

I must say that Like a Storm was pretty good for an upcoming band. Staind... Not my type of music really but still did a good job on the songs I recognize from the radio. Now Creed. They came out to please and they delivered. It seems the this reviewer is not much of a Creed fan to begin with. I think they have all matured a great deal and sounded just as good as I remember them when they were here about 7 years ago. Their pyrotechnics were fantastic and they seemed very humble and actually appreciative of the fans. I hope to see and hear more of them in the future. Loved this show!!!
