Hands down: the best show i've ever seen. My friends and i got to the venue at 2:30, while the show started at 8 PM. My brother and i were squeezed up against the barricade for the entire show, and although i think i may have some bruised ribs now, i believe it was entirely worth it. I would give almost anything to relive that night last night. I also managed to grab one of Paz's waterbottles that she threw into the crowd! Maynard's A Perfect Circle underwear was so awesome....i just don't know what to say. Not only did they play every song off of Mer de Noms, but they also played Vacant, Ashes to Ashes, and a remix of 3 Libras...This show gets a ten out of ten on my chart.

Well, this was the third show I've been to and I can say I'll never get tired of watching you guys perform. Everything fit together so well, from the lighting to the set list. My friends and I stood slack jawed as Paz seductively played her violin. I have to compliment you guys as true musicians, and based on the reaction last night I think your talent will be sought after for a long time. Thanks for a great show, it will live in memory forever.

wow! that was a kick ass show. the energy that the band has was unbelievable. they were truly into the music and i could tell they wanted to be there. maynard was great--i was, and am, in awe of his performance. last night was my first time at the rave and i loved it! it's the perfect place for a concert. the crowd was cool too. everyone seemed into the band and there was no moshing by me at all-probably because i was in the back. there was one guy next to me who was dancing the whole time and just going crazy-that was cool. what a way to express himself.

I had arrived at the Concert late (which kinda made me mad, cause I wanted to see how Snake River was), Anyways..I had arrived as Snake River was playing thier last song. This was my first time in the Eagles Ballroom, I had always gone to the Rave for concerts. This was a perfect place for A Perfect Circle Concert. I had been waiting a little over a month to see A Perfect Circle, thier CD moves me so...it's so different than most rock being played today.(that was a weclcomed change for once), I waited on the floor for about 35 (I went to the concert by myself) and then the place went dark, as Josh made his entrance, then Troy, Billy, Paz and then finally Maynard. I could only watch in awe durng the whole show, I was totally taken aback by A Perfect Circle in real life. It was also nice to hear Maynard say "Thank you" at the end of every song and to have time to joke around with us and to have 3 songs called "F*ck Britney Spears", in turn one of them was really "Judith" and I could onl

The place, The Eagles Ballroom, built in the 1920's or so. Seats 3,500 people officially but more when they can get away with it. The place is a deathtrap. Large holes in the ceiling as I wait for the bass to make sheetrock start falling on our heads.
6:30 PM...Arrival, a seat at The Rave bar for a stiff .00 Captain & Coke. No Pete
7:00...Another drink, still no Pete. Dave is preturbed
7:45...Standing amongst the VERY young crowd. "Hey they must be here cuz they heard 3 Libras on the radio once and cuz that song is SO cool." Still no Pete.
8:05...Snake River Conspiracy hits the stage. Right in front of the speakers. Pretty loud. They remind me of Garbage kinda sorta. We leave a couple songs in to go piss. Hey its Pete.
9:35...APC hits the stage. Several songs through Maynard looks like he is scraming at someone who just snapped his picture. A couple songs later he tells the lively teens to put away their cameras and to join them for a change before starti

Holy Shit! That was the best concert i have seen. First off... the Renholder intro was unbeleavable. Paz was great... billys vocals were perfect and everthing just made me feal all cool and tingly... The remix of 3 libras was frekin awsome... Maynard was kind of a glowing orange color between songs that was kewl. The light show on Thinking of You and every other song was un-fuckin-believeable. Tapeworm was a sweet sweet song, as was Ashes to Ashes (which maynard called fuck britney spears) They did a sweet-ass remix of over (which maynard called 20 to go) Aftrer Fuck Britney Spears they also did Fuck Britney Spears (Judith) and Fuck Britney Spears (The Hollow) My only complaint was the security gards shining lights on the girls sitting on guys sholders... leave them alone u dicks. The crowd was also very diverse... i saw alot of APC fans, alot of TOOL fans, some hippies playing hackey sack, some goths, and behind me in the balcony was middled aged women... so i didnt really know what t

Hey. I just got home from the show. I'm tired as hell. As usual Maynard and the rest of the gang was fucking great. I'm kinda pissed though cause I didnt see much of the band due to the idiots who are under the impression that apc is moshing music (Yeah you group of 5 teenieboppers standing directly behind me, you know who you are.YOU FUCKERS!) Well because of those assholes I was near suffocating and had to be pulled out by security.
On a brighter note, I met this kick ass dude at the show. I hope you read this. Your name is Pat.(you had a friend w/ ya. grey shirt, buzz cut, named James I think) You are really fucking cool. (For all of those that care, he stayed w/ me when I lost my friend in the sea of people) Pat, if you read this I just want you to know that you didnt have to do that, and that makes you really cool. Not to mention I thought you were a cutie too. Please e-mail me if you read this.

Rather cool. They sound almost exactly the same as on the album. Great performance.
I was impressed, but the price of drinks was fucking outrageous. I suppose that's not APC's fault though.
The mosh was tame (which is good). Set up time was longer than I thought it would be. That sound guy seemed like he had a mental handicap or something.
Well worth the ticket price.
