Last night we went to the Nickelback concert at the FedEx Forum in Memphis. Puddle of Mudd opened the show, followed by Chris Daughtry.
The show started at 7 p.m. and we arrived around 7:15 or so. As you can see, there was a long line, but we were able to bypass all of that heh.
Once inside and seated, we caught the last few songs from Puddle of Mudd. I am not terribly familiar with their music, but I did know the last couple of songs they performed. They seemed to put on a good show and had the crowd going.
After the set change, Daughtry came out and put on a good show. I had seen him at Beale Street Music Fest and honestly thought his show there was better, but I guess it could have been the crowd too.
Next up was Nickelback. This was my first time seeing them live and WOW did they put on a show! I’ve been to my share of concerts but this performance totally blew anything else (Disturbed, Godsmack, Hinder, etc.) totally out of the water. I don’t want to spoil anything for those who may be going to a show on their current tour, but you won’t be disappointed. The music / drum bass was absolutely insane, pyro’s rocked and they played the crowd very well, even hurling probably 100 or so cups of beer to the crowd.
Overall a great show. If you are a Nickelback fan, I’d highly suggest checking out their show if they come to a city near you!
