Powerman5000

Friday night we headed out to The Boardwalk in Orangevale to catch Powerman5000 and it was a damn good night for music! They had some great opening bands and a killer set by 9Electric. One thing is for sure Powerman5000 = ENERGY. These five guys come out on stage and just bleed energy and feed the crowd with their electronic metal rock. Even with the soundstage technical difficulties they had to deal with, didn’t break this band from delivering an adrenaline filled set. Check out this tribute video that Rockin Ryan made which includes live footage of their set:

In addition to playing fan favorites, they treated us to several of their new songs and really got everyone pumped for the release of their new album, Builders of the Future which is out later this week on May 27th. Check out Rockin Ryan’s photos from their set here:

The crowd went wild for their new track, How To Be A Human as well as their new song, Invade.Destroy. Repeat. It was great to see the crowd so fueled and fired up. They did away with the typical boring walk off for the encore and instead, came at us heavy with a couple more songs! It was awesome. The night ended with everyone pumped up and singing along to When Worlds Collide. The set list for the night was:

Invade. Destroy. Repeat
Supervillain
Nobody’s Real
Hey, That’s right
How To Be A Human
You’re Gonna Love It
Show Me What You Got
We Want It All
City of The Dead
Horror Show
Bombshell
Supernova Goes Pop
Stars Revolt
When Worlds Collide

If you happen to be in the Southern California area, make sure to head over to the Viper Room for their Album Release Show on May 27th. You can get more details and tickets here: http://bit.ly/PM5K_AlbumReleaseShow
