Coverage for: Rockstar Culture 10/24/2024

Kaonashi were first to the stage and opened up the moshpits with no hesitation! Kaonashi picked “You’ll understand when you’re older” as the first track. Attendees were smacked in the face with the energy and charisma that Kaonashi brings to the venue! Mid-way through the set the band played their most recent single “Straycations” and preceded to play multiple fan favorites before closing out with their biggest track “I Hate the Sound of Car Keys”

When ‘68 took the stage, you felt right away you were in the presence of musical talent. The noise rock duo from Atlanta put on an instrumental masterclass of a performance. Josh and Nikko showcased technical riffs and performed drum stick flips. They orchestrated a perfectly curated setlist for the audience. It included fan favorite tracks from the projects “Yes, and…” & “Two parts viper”. They closed out the show with a creative closer of “TRACK 1 R.”

Protest The Hero graced the stage with the hometown crowd’s loving and open embrace! The Ontario natives started their headlining set with track “Clarity.” They brought out Jadea Kelly for some guest vocals. She also pops up later on in the night during “Plato’s Triparite.” The band continued to play through the “Volition” project. Many stories and laughs came along with it. Most of all, many thanks came from the band themselves. Front-man Rody Walker express enough how grateful the rest of the Protest boys were, along with himself. They were thankful for the wonderful journey that the fans have brought them on throughout the band’s life. The fans also crowdfunded the album 10 years ago during its creation process. After the full play through of Volition ended, Protest the Hero delivered a heavy encore. They played the anticipated “Sequoia Throne” and “Bloodmeat.”
