I'm assuming someone here went to see them Thursday at Hard Rock Biloxi...I've missed so many great concerts there due to traveling for my kid's karate tournaments. Saw Myles Kennedy with Slash there a while back, and it pains me to have missed Alter Bridge in a perfect venue like that.

They were excellent. They have better chemistry than most on stage, and you can tell they really enjoy playing. Tremonti stole the show, but that wasn't a surprise. The set was about an hour and forty five minutes.

For me, they've always been in my second tier of bands. I have enjoyed all four albums, but they just never quite cracked the top 5 or 6 for me. However, their live performance was one of the best I've seen.

And you're right about the venue. Good sound and not a bad spot in there.

Saw them in Atlanta last night and the show was amazing. Played about 17 songs, pulled One Day Remains out of nowhere, and we all sang happy birthday to Mark Tremonti. Sold out the Tabernacle and the crowd was high energy all the way through. Definitely rivaled one of the European shows.

Fantastic. They're pretty much perfect on stage and Myles has super human lungs and conditioning to hit those sustained high notes night after night.

About 18 great songs with a good mix from their four albums. One of the best shows I've been to.

It's a cool venue and I had fun, but it wasn't as good as when I saw them 9 or 10 years ago at the Varsity.

However, I was sitting in the balcony so I probably missed out on a lot of the energy that comes with being on the ground floor. My mistake.

Those guys are tremendously talented though, no doubt.
