Together the trio delivered a powerful sound that filled with venue. The crowd grew with anticipation as the time for Pokey’s set was nearing.

  Sam Hunt was a sold out show and you could tell by the amount of traffic on the freeways and streets. Cars parked randomly to beat the rush of traffic. People leaving their Uber and Lyft drivers on the freeway to jump the fence to stamped to the amphitheater because it was stopped traffic for miles. The usual hour and half drive to Shoreline became 3 hours of standstill traffic. You could see masses of cowboy boots and country attire walking the streets along with music of Sam Hunt in the air. Once this 32 year old Georgia boy hit the stage, the crowd went into a Beatles-like frenzy. Women screaming the lyrics to each song and dancing to the every beat.

August 8, 2017

Vans Warped Tour was filled with so many great bands. The last band of the night we checked out was one of our favorites; William Control.  They were performing out on the Skullcandy Stage and it turned out to be quite a dance party! William treated the fans to all of our favorite tracks and everyone began dancing around, as the night fell on the amphitheater. Every time we have seen William Control, they seem to set the bar higher and higher, and each time they successfully exceed our expectations.  We could have stayed there enjoying hours more of William Control and were truly sad when the set ended.   We are very excited to see William Control heading out on tour with Motionless in White for the Graveyard Shift Tour.
