Rise Against Show/My Upcoming Shows
I haven't been to many concerts in the last couple of years, I used to go quite a bit when I was younger. I guess I have other stuff to spend money on, and I'd rather be on stage if I can be. Last Monday, my step dad hooked me and Caitlin up with free tickets to see Rise Against at the Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho. We got out of our math class early and headed down there. We got to sit up in one of the suites, which was pretty cool, had a nice view of the stage.
The first band was Title Fight, never heard of them, we caught a few of their last songs, they weren't bad. Second, was A Day to Remember. I had just heard them on the radio earlier that day, and they sounded pretty decent. I was pretty impressed with their live show, it's amazing how creative a band can get when they've got a little bit of money. They put on a really good show, I don't know if I'd go out and buy their album, but it was a lot of fun to watch. Rise Against headlined the show, and they put on an amazing live show. Had really cool lighting and some awesome videos playing on stage. Singer, Tim McIlrath, also did a few acoustic songs, those were the first Rise Against songs I had ever heard, so that was pretty cool! It was a lot of fun.
On Saturday the 28th I did a show at Hotel Andaluz for 93.3 KOB FM to raise money for YDI. This is one the best shows I've seen here in Albuquerque for awhile, we had Todd Badolato, Sarah Kennedy, Dan Rascon, Matt Peterson, Rusty Rutherford and me. They packed a lot of people into the room, the lighting was great, too. Everybody killed it, very successful night!
