Interview with Kevin and Manny of Ghost Town as they stop in San Francisco!

June 17, 2015

We recently brought you our coverage of the fantastic set by Ghost Town out on the Falling In Reverse Tour. The Ronnie Radke’s Three Ring Circus made a stop at The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco and the crowd went wild! Ghost Town created a wave of crowd surfers as they delivered an epic set. For our coverage of the night head over here: Ghost Town creates a wave of crowd surfers! Shortly before their set, we had the chance to chat with Manny and Kevin and are pleased to bring that interview to you here: Ghost Town were incredible from the second they hit the stage.  It was barely into the first song that the first wave of crowd surfers began and they seemed to keep a continuous cycle throughout their set. These guys have such energy that is displayed when they perform. Kevin even brought out an inflatable pizza slice and rode the crowd from the front to back. It brought back memories of them last year at Warped Tour and how we claimed [Read More]

Ghost Town creates a wave of crowd surfers as they make their stop in San Francisco

June 8, 2015

Falling In Reverse brought their Ronnie Radke’s Three Ring Circus Tour to The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco this past weekend. Now to open for a double dose of FIR, you need one hell of an opening band that can stand on their own. Well, Ghost Town proved to be the right band for the job as they delivered an epic set Friday night.  It was great to see so many fans in line supporting and wearing their Ghost Town merch. We had the chance to chat with Manny and Kevin before their set and will be bringing that to you later this week. Ghost Town hit the stage with intensity that soon raised through the crowd. It was barely into the first song that the first wave of crowd surfers began and they seemed to keep a continuous cycle throughout their set. These guys have such energy that is displayed when they perform. Kevin even brought out an inflatable pizza slice and rode the crowd from the front to back. It brought back memories [Read More]

Of Mice & Men deliver high energy unforgettable set in San Francisco

June 7, 2015

Of Mice & Men have been busy out on their Full Circle Tour and we have been waiting so impatiently for our turn! Well, this past Thursday they made it to San Francisco and packed The Regency Ballroom to capacity.  We had arrived quite early to the venue only to find a line around circling the block, hours before the start. Crown The Empire unfortunately had bus troubles and were unable to open but Volumes did a great job at warming up the crowd and definitely had everyone on their feet ready for an epic night. Photos from their set: As the lights dimmed, the crowd attempted to rush the stage, but honestly it was so packed, there was practically nowhere to move. As Of Mice & Men took to the stage, they were adrenaline fueled and ready raise the roof off The Regency. They put on one of the best performances that I have ever seen. The energy of each member was at full throttle and the audience tried to match it as they delivered [Read More]

CONCERT REVIEW of The Color Morale in Munich, Germany by Alexandra Bock

June 1, 2015

The Color Morale / Scream Your Name / Ash Is A Robot Munich, Feierwerk Kranhalle, May 31, 2015   This was the weekend where ‘Rockavaria’ took place in Munich. A big 3 day Rock Music festival with bands like Muse, Kiss, FFDP, Hatebreed, Metallica and many others on the set-list. We didn’t have something like that in the city for well over 10 years. It was the final night with Metallica headlining, so that was quite a competition for any other live show that night.   Nevertheless I picked that show to go to because I love club shows far more than festivals and as the night progressed my choice was proven right. It wasn’t the first time for TCM to play in Munich. According to Garret, the vocalist of the band, the first time they played here it was about a third of the people that were there yesterday, so it was an increase. I’m pretty sure without Rockavaria in town there would’ve been more people. Ticket sales for the festival started months ago [Read More]
