The best produced show that I have ever been to. The fun and captivating storytelling and music of Jonsi was breathtaking, and maintained the explosiveness of a Sigur Ros show. Amazing show!
I came all the way from Brazil… worth every minute of every mile… amazing, breathtaking… words can`t describe how beautiful was the show… I`m glad I`ll be in Portland and Coachella to experience this magical performance again… if you have a chance, “go do”!
This show was beyond spectacular, whatever that may be; nonstop spine chilling shivers brought on by well executed rhythms. I was at first skeptical when I read that the stage itself was going to be amazing but all I saw was what looked like a burlap sheet; however, Jonsi does not disappoint. The digital effects of weather and scenery was like nothing I’d ever seen. It felt both visually and physically like you were on top of a mountain experiencing every heart pounding beat of the drum. This event was so stunning that I’m going to go see it tomorrow as well.
A luminous and deeply felt concert that I will remember all of my life. Thank you for coming to Seattle!
WOW!!!
Luminous, stupendous, beyond gorgeous… The concert was simply breathtaking. I was left breathless and smiling, with tears in my eyes. Jonsi, thank you so much — I still have tears in my eyes thinking about some of the sequences.
An amazing concert, and a great opener. I waited for an hour and a half after the show ended to catch all of you guys and I got my wish! I guess I was the only person who thought to do this, as I got to chat with a few of you, get my CD signed, and got a picture with Jonsi! Thanks again guys. That meant a lot to me.
Truly amazing. Jonsi never ceases to amaze but last night’s show was definitely out of this world. He hits every note perfectly; they didn’t miss a beat. I caught myself closing my eyes most of the show, just letting the music take me somewhere else…
Well done.
This was an unforgettable show and a truly euphoric experience for the audience. The musicians were rock solid tight, the visuals stunning and emotional, the energy ecstatic, and the music was pure joy. Thank you, Jonsi, for sharing your musical soul with us here in Seattle. Please make another stop to visit us again at the end of your tour!!
My heart is still racing, my feet are still dancing, and my head is still reeling from the beautiful sensations that washed over us last night.
I forgot to add – “Flottur sōfi” eh? Thanks guys ;)
The photographs are stunning. I can’t wait to see him in the Bay Area
Breathtaking pictures-Can’t wait to hear the performance artist and the music.
Thanks so much for your art and the beautiful songs and amazing set production! I felt the songs thru every fiber of my being. The visual feast was amazing too. . .Really the most wonderful performance I have seen in a long time!
BEAUTIFUL show, guys! Thank you for bringing your magic to Seattle!
It was like being caught in the eye of the most tragically beautiful of hurricanes
Exquisite. I’m an old guy and I’ve seen many, many shows. My partner and I agree that it was the best thing we ever saw. We’re listening (again) to the new album the morning after the show and it brings it back. That’s the best possible outcome of any show. Thank you.
This is the most beautiful concert I have ever been too. I want to see it again.
We went to the April 9th Concert……….and WOW!!! Blew my socks off. I recently became a fan when someone introduced me to the Sigur Ros cd. Just happened to stumble upon the concert advertisement in the stranger. I would go anywhere to see another concert by them! Truly something you have to see live!
