This review will probably be different than a lot of the others because of the artist I saw but it says something about the overall venue for hosting the event & the acoustics of the building don't change. Just got back from seeing a 3 night Tipper run at the Fillmore. Perfect sound, decent security, good food and a variety of viewing areas for everybody to enjoy. Rich history is photographed all over the walls. Really this place has a lot going for it. The chandeliers are stunning & for one night, they ran no visuals or lasers & let those chandeliers shine. Also a disco ball. Just wow. The crowd was pleasant to be around. Pro tip - the downstairs bathrooms go a lot faster than upstairs. Get the Pepperoni pizza bc the cheese is lacking flavor. The drinks in the upstairs bar are strong. Check out the upstairs btw its got a cool lounge.

The size and layout is decent enough and the prices are typical venue prices for drinks and what not (my Red Bull was seven dollars). They have outdoor smoking that’s easily accessible and I did see disability seating there.My issue is with the sound in the mix. I have to wear earplugs to shows. This particular venue is way too bass heavy, especially either stage left or right. I tried to find a spot in the center, but had to move because they are very lax with their indoor marijuana smoking. The other issue is there are no other places to sit except for one bench that was the de facto ‘ I did too many drugs’ bench. I am in my early 50s I need a break. I can’t stand at these venues for 6 hrs without a place to sit otherwise my back starts to hurt. I think overall it was just way too loud even towards the exit.My tickets were $65 and I got them at the box office an hour and a half before Showtime for the psychedelic furs and the Jesus and Mary chain not having to pay the Ticketmaster charge. The backing stage lighting was actually really cool.

Here's the gist , we went to see Tate Mcray on Sept 6, bought tickets through Ticket master ( the very name makes me furious after Taylor disaster) took a 13 and 17 year old! As an extra i am sent a email to buy VIP upgrade from the venue for 35 dollars extra , for VIP lounge, restaurants, early shopping etc.... What a crock ! When we got there the front of the building had 3 lines already started and around the side had a huge line the only sign to be seen said GA so having the VIP upgrade I assumed there would be a line for that and a line for sound check /meet and greet etc, not one sign anywhere and when we asked someone with a badge on they snipped at us and said im not sure what you work here !!!!! There ended up to be 10 or so employees standing there totally clueless !!! needless to say doors open 1 hour early no 515 before we got in and nobody coming around with wristbands ! we stood in aline till 610 and darn near died running down the stairs ! Best part two security guards and 2 bartenders in VIP lounge ! Long story short NEVER buy VIP upgrade from the fillmore!!!! Buy Meet and greet or sound check when you buy tickets! Or buy GENERAL ADMISSION and get there early !!!!! Lesson learned !!!!!Never Again !

Got screwed out of $500 bucks last night, this venue did not return my calls to confirm that our 15 year old son would not be admitted into the Amon Amarth show which was 16+. Why can a 16 year old get in but not a 15 year old, was told some BS about liquors license rules. You can smoke dope here but can't take your kid to a concert, your customer service sucks.

...but small enough to provide a more intimate concert experience. Not exactly sparkly, but cleaner than most similarly sized venues in Denver.
