She also sent in her experience/review from the show, which you can read below. Enjoy!
100 Monkeys first European tour ever started in Sweden November 28, 2011. There was about 100 fans attending. The band came out and gave everything you could ever want of a band. They played songs from their new album and also brought a 100 Monkeys classic and let the audience chose a word which a song would be based on. The band played for about 2 hours and had a great time on the stage. They laughed and played around and just had fun. A funny twist on the concert was that every member of the band played all the instruments on stage and all took turns on the different instruments. A cool touch that I have never seen before. After the concert the band quickly moved out towards the exit and sat down and wrote autographs for everyone in the audience, which is something very unusual for concerts today but an amazing gift to fans. They really gave their fans everything they could ever want and more!
Big thanks to Jana for translating this 100 Monkeys review from their show in Hamburg.
The vampire actor came with his band from California to the Elbe (the river in Hamburg). For their funk rock the five musicians switched permanently their instruments.
At Knust more than 400 people push towards the stage. The overrun of girls is highly visible, the mood is full of expectations. You could almost think they all just came to be only once near their Twilight star Jackson Rathbone. The actor known as Jasper Hale from the vampire saga is currently on world tour with his band 100 Monkeys. On Thursday night the Californian quintet played in Hamburg for the first time.
The lovely Crystal sent in her stellar photos from the Marquis Theatre and Black Sheep shows and you can view them all in the gallery! (Also added, are two shots from The Marquis Theatre show by Elizabeth!) She also took the time to write her experience from the shows, which you can also read below!
Hi my name is crystal, i attended the 100 monkeys show in Colorado, I took my cousin who never seen them before. so this was her first time. we went to both shows, and she won meet and greets for both shows, I got to say it was very different seeing in another place. Im from california so its alway packed and crowded. She Enjoyed every min of it. we meet some cool people there and got to see the kissing club and Bleeding horse express. it was every cool that at the end they had a signing. the show in Denver they were stricked and you couldn’t go up to the guys, but the second show we were able to after the show and signing. which is where we took picture with Jared and Uncle Larry and we waited around for Jackson. We had a great time enjoyed both shows and my cousin can wait to see them again she is now a monkey junkie lol. I cant wait till i see them again in LA.
Love that her cousin ended up being a monkey junkie after seeing the guys live for the first time!
Thanks to the lovely Janet for taking the time to write up her experience from the New Orleans shows!
Oh wow how can I ever quickly sum up my experience of the show last night? So we got to meet the guys for a few minutes at the CD signing at Peach Records in New Orleans, Louisiana on Aug.4. Oh my gosh! I still can’t believe I got to meet “The Jackson Rathbone” in the flesh. Swoon lol. The guys are all super Awesome. I will say this, that until last week; I had never heard the name of or checked out the band. Although, I knew a band did exist, I just hadn’t checked them out until then. I started following this site on Facebook a few months ago, because I’m a huge Twilight fan. Anyway after talking to a friend I checked them out. I liked the band pretty well, but not my normal music taste, but enjoyable. Then the day before the concert a friend asked if I wanted to go to a concert. I asked her who would be playing. She said, “100 Monkeys”. I said or practically screamed, “As is like Jackson Rathbone’s 100 Monkeys!” Long story short we headed to New Orleans the next morning. The Guys put on a, well I do use curse words so I’ll just say “A FREAKING FANTASTIC SHOW”. I mean sure my toes were numb and my feet hurt with the six plus hours we stood between waiting to get in, and then finally waiting for the guys on stage and then the Main event. I will say they had some amazing opening acts, but I couldn’t tell you how exciting it was with the building anticipation to know they would be coming out. By the time they came out I didn’t even care about my feet anymore. I had a blast as my first ever experience at any rock style concert. I can say 24 hours later and I still don’t have a voice from the screaming. I didn’t know many of the lyrics before, but that didn’t stop me from trying to follow and singing my heart out with the rest of the crowd. I will admit that I am now a huge fan and can’t wait for more concerts to come near again. It was great that I came with a few friends and standing in the crowd I meet other huge fans of the show gaining more friends. Some that had been to six shows for this tour alone. I got a few pictures before my phone died and I couldn’t get anymore. So sad but the best thing for me is I had an experience that I will remember forever. They say a picture paints a thousand words, but it’s the pictures that my camera didn’t get that mean more. I don’t think any camera could capture the excitement and energy along with the joy that I experienced last night at the concert. I will definitely be spreading some Monkey love to my other friends. As I said it was my very first experience at any rock type of concert, and I will say this, any other group has a lot to live up to for my first experience. I’m not sure if it can be topped as one of the best times I’ve ever had. You guys rocked and can’t wait to see you again. So to sum it up I went there not really sure who the 100 Monkeys were, but left not only a bigger Jackson Rathbone 8-> day dreaming (aka Jasper Cullen) fan, but a huge 100 Monkeys Fan as well. PEACE OUT AND KEEP ON ROCKING!!!!!! lovestruck
You can also check out a few photos she managed to snap at the House of Blues show in the gallery. Thanks again, Janet!
You can also check out what she had to say about the show over at BreakingDawnMovie.Org, plus see a few more photos she took from the show as well!
Once again I have to thank you all at Breakingdawnmovie.org for giving us the best leads to meet our favorite vamps! I learned about Jackson Rathbone touring with his band, 100 Monkeys, several months ago, prompting me to buy tickets for the nearest show which happened to be just over two hours away in Toronto, Canada. So this is how I found myself and my barely willing husband standing outside the Mod Club on Saturday, July 9th waiting for the doors to open.
As we were making conversation with a handful of people who were also waiting, who walks up to stand at the end of the line? Jackson Rathbone in all his casual-sexified glory! He made easy conversation with us even mocking ‘these guys’ [the band], for making us wait outside. He made a quick departure inside a few minutes later. It was a very wonderful precursor for the night.
The lovely Rachel sent in her photos she took at the Toronto show and you can check them out in the gallery! You can read her adorable experience at the show below as well. Thanks Rachel!
The show overall was beyond amazing! I was front row, and Jackson came down and held my hand at one point. Then after the show, the entire band signed autographs and such. It’s my second Monkey’s show, and I loved every second of it
Thanks to Crystal for sending in her photos, videos and for taking the time to write up a quick review from the El Rey Theatre show! Read her review from Saturday’s show below.
I recently went to see 100 monkeys show at the El ray theater. I won a meet and greet and pizza party with the band. It was from a contest that they were having called all about the Benjamin’s. Which i thought was if you bring people to the show who havent been to one. And you would get monkey money to spend on 100 monkeys items. But then i won the meet and great and pizza party. It was amazing, me and my firends actually got to hang out with the band and talk with them about their music other things, not to mention the prediction of the end of the world which was supposed to happen. What better way then to rock out with 100 monkeys. Over all the show was great as always, they played for an hour then had Paul McDonald from Americal Idol come on for 20 min which he was supposed to play the after party so that was a surprise for people. Then came back on and did another set. Over all another memerable show. Had a great time and cant wait to see them again.
Rockstar Weekly reviewed the recent 100 Monkeys show at the Venue in Vancouver. You can check out a bit of it below.
After arriving at the solely women populated Venue, my skepticism for the loyal Monkey fan base, and why they were really there, was still not in the bands favour. With split press between their talent and their easy road to success due to Rathbone’s popularity as an actor, I was wondering where I would stand after the concert.
Prior to the show, their publicist told me Rathbone would not be attending as there was problems on the set of Twilight in Squamish and he was running behind. I was curious to see how the room would take the news as Graupner nervously grabbed the mic and told the fans he had both good and bad news: “The good news is, you are getting TWO shows tonight”, and the room erupted, “the bad news is, Jackson is stuck on set so he won’t be joining us until the second show”. To my surprise, there were no boos, no one left, and as each member took the stage one by one, the cheers got louder and louder. Interesting.
They opened the show with Graupner on vocals and played a song off their album Grape, “Wings on Fire”. The guys immediately won the crowd over with their charismatic performance; their energy and enthusiasm were definitely commendable. 100 Monkeys lived up to their trademark “monkey switcheroo” changing instruments and vocals nearly every other song during their sets. They definitely were swinging around the stage with a passion for their music, and the love and happiness they deliver to their fans via their tracks was certainly contagious. The fans were also taking part in the switcheroo as lead vocalists, as at times their sing-a-longs were louder than the whole band. They were actively involved with all the elements of the show and were extremely familiar with most of the material. They chanted and sang along with what seemed to be even the most obscure tracks from the 100 Monkey catalogue all while pushing closer and closer to the stage, they really wanted to be a part of the show.
Jamie sent in a quick write up + her photo with the boys from the recent show at the Roxy. You can check out her photo with the band in the gallery! Thanks Jamie!
This was hands down one of the most epic night of my life thus far. The meet and greet was phenomenal. All the guys are gorgeous in person, as well as sweet and funny. I know many of you have seen them play and I now agree that they are amazing recorded but even better live. Everyone who has seen them kept telling me there’s no comparison to seeing Jackson in pictures vs. seeing him in person. I didn’t think that was possible for him to be more handsome than he is in pictures and film but I’m here to tell you that it definitely is. I’m so thankful to popzine for giving me the opportunity to meet my favorite band.
Recent birthday girl, Crystal, sent in her own photos, videos and a nice review from the show on Saturday. You can read her review and watch her videos below! Her photos have also been added to the gallery. Thanks Crystal, and happy belated birthday!
OK so i was very excited that 100monkeys came back to LA for one night, we missed them so much. And i could tell they missed LA as well. that was the first thing Ben G said when they started. I was also excited that they were playing on my birthday with to me made it extra special. And to add the cherry on top of the cake, they had a twitter contest to promote the show and i won a meet and greet with the band. I can honestly say it was the best birthday ever. THe band was amazing and so much fun to meet. They are all really great guys. And I got birthday hugs from the band and had them sign a birthday sash and my friends got their ties signed. That night that band was really great, they played a few songs from their up coming album. But still played alot of favorites. They also gave a shout out to the birthday people. Over all amazing show they never disapoint and always top themselves over and over. will miss them while they are away but counting down the days till they come back to LA and their new cd comes out
