Adelitas Way
This is a band I could watch over and over again. Lead vocalist, Rick DeJesus is the driving force behind this band he has a huge personality on stage and finds every opportunity to engage the fans. Whether it is handing out drum sticks or coaxing people to get up and crowd surf for a high five he definitely keeps the energy up. Another guy I love to watch is guitarist, Robert Zakaryan. He too has a huge persona on stage, he is constantly bouncing around the stage and throwing his guitar up in your face. All around a fun band whether you’re familiar with their music or not. I have seen Adelitas Way may times before and while I think they are a fantastic live band I definitely prefer them in a festival setting. I think they feed so well off the large diverse crowds.
Flyleaf
When I heard that Flyleaf was going to be on snocore tour, I was surprised, I haven’t heard anything from them since before their former vocalist Lacey Sturm left the band in 2012. Though I was very interested to see how their new vocalist, Kristen May would preform. As soon as Flyleaf hit the stage everyone went running in separate directions. Kristen grabbed her mic ran to the top of the stage and kicked off their set with, “Set me on Fire.” One of the first things I noticed was just how much Kristen sounded like Lacey. None the less, Flyleaf put on an incredible show from start to finish. Im interested to see what their next move is, if they decide to continue to go in a completely different direction with their music or stick to the same sound they had established for themselves.
