Train - Cleveland 2026

Train brought their “Drops of Jupiter: 25 Years in the Atmosphere” tour to cleveland in 2026, with Barenaked Ladies and Matt Nathanson on the bill. The anniversary focus gave the show a strong nostalgic pull, but the band delivered much more than a trip back to the early 2000s.

Pat Monahan and the band moved through a crowd-pleasing set featuring “Calling All Angels,” “If It's Love,” “Meet Virginia,” “Marry Me,” “Save Me, San Francisco,” “50 Ways to Say Goodbye,” “Hey, Soul Sister,” “Drive By” and “Drops of Jupiter.” The combination of huge choruses and familiar melodies made for plenty of audience participation.

“Hey, Soul Sister” and “Drops of Jupiter” were obvious highlights, but the performance worked because Train didn't treat their biggest songs like museum pieces. They sounded energetic and comfortable, with Monahan remaining an engaging frontman throughout.

Blossom was a perfect setting for the show, giving Train a large summer crowd and plenty of room for the band's polished pop-rock sound. After 25 years, Train proved that their biggest songs still have plenty of life left in them.
