I wish I would have read the first review before we attended a show at the Tulalip Amphitheater. We went to see Tower of Power in August. For those who do not know this band it is a very fun, lively funk/soul/dance band. We figured since it was outdoors on a summer night and such a fun band it was a perfect fit. Boy, were we wrong! The staff continually harrassed the fans, removing some from their seat for .....get this....standing up and dancing to a funk band!!!! It got so bad the vocalist of the band, Larry Braggs, had to tell the staff REPEATEDLY to leave their fans alone and let them dance! It was horrible. The other reviewer called this a militant venue....and it sure as heck is. If you're looking to have a good time avoid this venue at all costs. Or, you *will* be sorry. It is simply not worth the bother.
Cons: Lousey sound system - you can't hear the band from the bleacher seats. Disrespectful staff. Militant venue.
