- The Tribute to TOOL was absolutely amazing and a must-see! We loved the whole concept - hearing the music in a candlelit setting made for such a unique experience. The musicians were incredible, and we enjoyed it so much that we immediately bought tickets for the Queen and Beatles tributes too. Highly recommend, not just TOOL but any Candlelight show!
- Hearing Tool music on the strings was breathtaking.
- Loved the show.Very well done.Staff was courteous and helpful.Recommended
- Truly an amazing show! My boyfriend is a huge TOOL fan and was so impressed by the show!
- I really feel like they did the music of Tool justice
- It was an amazing night from the moment we walked into the theater. The music of Tool has always been special to me, but reimagining it into what was presented by some very talented artists was the highlight.
- Phenomenal. Please release this on vinyl :).
- What awesome show! Bought tickets as a birthday present for my husband, a huge TOOL fan, and he had a great time. It was so fun to watch these talented musicians take on the complexity of TOOL and you could tell they were having a blast! Highly recommend
- Amazing performance by all four . I’ve never heard anything like that in my entire life. Acoustically perfect the candles effect phenomenal.

- Do more metal
- My hubs and I are huge Tool fans, we really loved the tribute show they put on, as well as our performers who were not only incredibly talented, but we also very funny and personable. The stage was beautiful, the candles created a beautiful ambience that was easy to lose yourself in the music in. Can't rave about it enough
