    In 11 years this was my 3rd time seeing the band. Every performance is incredible, this show was transcendent.

    Thank you so much! From the moment we entered the hall the atmosphere was electric. Suspense and excitement just saturated the room! The first vocal pierced the air with such beautiful precision. The sound was perfectly balanced and high quality. That note Jonsi held during Festival was sooo damn impressive :) The light show as well, phenomenal!! It built and built during the set into a glorious crescendo that, without wanting to sound cliche, literally blew my mind. A bewildering bombardment of fluorescent colour and bright, bright strobes, a complete sensory overload in the best possible way. Treated to some new tracks too, naturally they were incredible. A perfect evening.
    Thank you!!

    This is the second time I’ve seen Sigur Ros and it’s always a pleasure!

    Unapologetically mesmerising in music & the staging, I hope to see them again!

    Takk!!

    First saw Sigur Rós at The Astoria, London (now gone) in 2000…have seen them in UK, Europe and in Iceland since. Last night at Apollo was jaw – dropping. Takk Sigur Rós- I’m coming to catch you in Copenhagen and I’ll make sure I stand at the front….X

    One of those once-in-a-lifetime evenings that demanded to be experienced wholly. I sat in the fourth row, having had the foresight to wear waterproof mascara and glitter under my eyes. Sparkle-tears all night.

    I haven’t seen anything like that in my life. Your show is not excellent, is from outer Space and is at the top of my favourites.
    HOWEVER, I bought 2 besta packages (besta expensives!) which were supposed to grant you great locations and an exclusive booklet signed by you, and instead I got delivered, at the very last minute, 2 tickets worth £50 each without any of the VIP elements. Have contacted you through all possible channels and still waiting for your response.

    For all Besta buyers, I got a response to my case! The boocklet has to be pick up from the venue.

    This is the third time I have seen Sigur rod live and it just keeps getting better the new music is mesmerising; I seriously cannot wait for the new album. Thank you guys. Next up Glasgow, Monday night.

    It was completely phenomenal, almost perfect! The only thing that would make it better is if we finally got to see hoppipolla play again. I’d definitely book tickets immediately if hoppipolla was in the set list! Putting that aside, I sincerely doubt any other artist can outperform Sigur Ros when it comes to live concerts and so it’s very probable that this will remain my all time favourite concert. Truly was a night to remember.

    And then the band played Festival, Jonsi held the high note, I dreamt of meeting my unborn child, & all was momentarily well with the world. Takk feyrir.

    says:

    Absolutely every element of the show was amazing! Incredible musicians exploring sound in so much depth combined with an amazing visual show that tied perfectly to the sounds. Loved it so much! Takk for such a great show :)

    When I was 8, my Dad gave me Takk… on CD as a present. I’d listen to it every night and absolutely fell in love with it. Every song meant something to me. After his sudden death when I was 14, my love for Sigur Ros grew even more – I took all of the CDs he owned by them, and quickly I became emotionally attached to the band.
    I’m now 19. Last night was the second time I’d seen them – after Sziget Festival in Budapest where they blew me away. However, this time I saw them with my Mum in a perfect setting and we both cried our eyes out. It was the best gig I’d ever witnessed in my life – every song sent me back to being young. The entire set was so comforting yet so incredibly powerful.
    Thank you for such an unbelievable experience for my mum and I. We’re both counting down the days until we can be there again.

    Absolutely sublime gig. As always come away feeling an intimate connection with the concert as if the crowd wasn’t there. Love love loved it and can’t wait for the new album to come out, as the new songs were wonderful!

    I am 11years old and this was my first gig ( apart from festivals ). I went with my dad who absolutely loves you guys and it was an amazing concert and it absolutely blew my mind away. I thought that orri drumming gorges base and jonsis vocals and the lighting were out of this world

    says:

    Third time seeing you all live and was wonderful. Rough couple of months and it was something I told myself to took forward to and focus on.
    Was just as amazing as expected, great show and loved the new songs that were played.
    Good luck for rest of the tour and a well deserved rest at the end of this! Thank you.

    Once again – spectacular. Preferred the sound here to Manchester, what a show, cannot fault it. The insanely long note was back (One of my favourite bits) and Popp as always is a thing of beauty to witness! Next stop Harpa for 2 more nights with the best band on the planet :)

    The gig just blew me away and I have spent the time ever since looking for more live shows. Would love to see them in Iceland
