Date of Concert: 8/7/2010 | Location: Marymoor Park, WA, USA
Michael Franti and Spearhead put on one of the of the most fun, energetic, interactive shows I've seen in a very long and I have been to MANY shows in my lifetime. I would highly recommend you bring your kids as well as the kids all rocked out at the end on stage with MF, with huge beach balls being thrown all over the air- like a gigantic outdoor summer party. Looking at their schedule, they have a LOT of shows to do still, yet I am confident their energy will remain high. DO NOT MISS THI SHOW IF IT'S COMING NEAR YOU. That is, only if you want to come away with a huge grin and good feelings. :-)

REVIEW: Michael Franti & Spearhead @ the Cuthbert Amphitheater (Eugene, OR - - 5/24/08) WOW! Fantastic show at the Cuthbert Amphitheater in Eugene, OR, last night… it was beautiful day, then it rained for the show… but it was a BLAST! Openers: Lilla D’Mone Trio with My G - great musicianship in a hip-hop, funk soul rock realm. The lyrics were a little lacking in my opinion… they seemed to mean well but fall short. Alas, it’s probably why I gravitate to more instrumental bands anyway. Good pop lyricists are too few and far between. If I had to grade ‘em… a B. Blue Scholars - a DJ & MC duo from Seattle. They were good, but I spent most of their set in the long and slow coffee line. Hmph. What I heard, I enjoyed (B+). The Coup - they were a very good act. Sort of a rap funk rock thing going on. Played for an hour, very enjoyable (solid A). Too many openers for my taste, but they were pretty good (all things considered). Michael Franti and Spearhead put on a GREAT show. I had never heard them outside of their samples on MySpace, but my wife (and her boss) wanted to go… and the vibe I heard was good; so what the heck. Anyway, amazing show… good mix of rock, reggae, and hip-hop. I didn’t know the names of the songs, but I liked ‘em… and even in the rain, it didn’t stop people from dancing in the aisles (and on the chairs). Oh, he did play a song I knew… Nirvana’s “Come As You Are.” FULL REVIEW at: http://jazzsick.wordpress.com/2008/05/25/review-michael-franti-spearhead-eugene/ ~Dan

As a radio guy, I see a lot of shows. I had a chance to get down to Missoula and catch MF & Spearhead. From the get, this was one of the best shows I have ever seen. For anyone who saw the show the new tune he did was "Everythings Changed But My Name", and it was awesome. If Michael is ever even close to your location, I highly recommend this concert. It is two and a half hours of feel good!!! He played a great mix of older tunes as well as tons of tunes from his latest album "Yell Fire". The bottom line....I'll never miss Spearhead again....EVER!! Jonny Knight KPND Radio
