A Day To Remember: The Least Anticipated Album Tour 

ADTR Puts on a Show to Remember 

A Day To Remember, easily one of the most popular mainstream metal bands, took the stage at Red Hat Amphitheater in Raleigh, NC, this past Tuesday (7/2/24). True to their name, they put on “A Show to Remember.” Accompanied by Pain of Truth, Four Year Strong, and The Story So Far, ADTR wowed not only me but also the thousands of people in attendance with their iconic songs and a party-like atmosphere. My first experience seeing ADTR was in 2021 at the Blue Ridge Rock Festival. At the time, I was not a fan of the metal scene, yet I discovered that just about anyone can have a good time at an ADTR show. From commanding rhythms and beats to CO2 cannons, pyrotechnics, and even beach balls, the show was an intoxicating euphoria. Now, three years later, I am such a big fan of the metal scene and genre that I am volunteering as a mixed media concert journalist just so I can attend more shows. I can’t help but feel that my initial experience with ADTR played a large part in that development.

While ADTR may lean slightly more towards mainstream/pop metal, they definitely showcase an affinity for the heavier side, as evidenced by the first band of the night. Opening the show was Pain of Truth, a band quickly making a name for itself in the hardcore scene. Led by frontman Michael Smith, their set was a visceral, adrenaline-fueled display of anger, attitude, energy, and rage. The lineup includes Nik Hansen and Ridge Rhine on guitars, Chris Rini on drums, and Zach Stachura on bass. POT-2 If you’re curious about their pedigree, just look through their features; with names like Terror, Bad Seed, King Nine, Billy Club Sandwich, and many others, it’s evident that this band is destined to leave a mark on the scene. It was clear from the start of their set that those who had arrived in time for the opener were there specifically for Pain of Truth, not just to secure a good spot for the main event. In terms of moshing and reckless engagement, Pain of Truth undoubtedly ignited the most activity I saw in the audience all night.

FYS-9

Taking the stage next was Four Year Strong, a band technically categorized as American easycore/pop-punk from Worcester, Massachusetts. The four-man band consists of Alan Day and Dan O’Connor on guitars and vocals, Joe Weiss on bass, and Jake Massucco on drums. Their most recent album, “Brain Pain,” was released by Pure Noise Records on February 28th, 2020.

FYS-1

They kicked off their set with the title track “Brain Pain,” and proceeded to play a variety of their tracks, including the song” uncooked” from their not-yet-released album “Analysis Paralysis,” due out on August 9th, 2024. The crowd responded energetically to the new material, showcasing the band’s ability to blend catchy pop-punk melodies with hardcore intensity. 

TSSF-1

The Story So Far, hailing from Walnut Creek, California, took the stage after Four Year Strong. Named after a 2002 song by New Found Glory, with whom they later toured in 2012, the band has gained recognition in the pop-punk realm. Their LP “Under Soil and Dirt” was ranked in Rock Sound’s list of The 51 Most Essential Pop Punk Albums of All Time, alongside other iconic bands like Simple Plan, All American Rejects, Green Day, and The Offspring. However, I found their performance to be lackluster and unenergetic, a sentiment echoed by many fans post-show. Lead vocalist Parker Cannon spent the majority of the set with a subdued demeanor, clutching the microphone and his pants, showing little emotion. This was further reflected in my photographs from the event, where he appeared detached throughout the performance.

ADTR-8

ADTR was everything I remembered and everything I hoped for. The audience was thrilled with anticipation, and the energy was palpable. Just like the last two times I saw them, they kicked off with a bang, literally. Confetti cannons fired during their opening song “Sticks & Bricks,” setting the tone for the exhilarating show to come. ADTR’s history is as rich as its discography. They signed what many called a deal with the devil with Victory Records in 2007, and were notoriously mistreated by the label’s owner, Tony Brummel. Credited with ending this mistreatment, they won their lawsuit against Victory, which eventually forced Brummel to sell the company. They continued to release music independently, proving with their album “Common Courtesy” and hits like “Right Back At It Again” that they didn’t need major label backing to succeed. Recent legal troubles led to Josh Woodard’s departure from the band, and he has been replaced by an unnamed and unidentifiable guitarist for their “Least Anticipated Album Tour.” Despite my searches on the band’s Instagram, website, and the internet, I couldn’t find any information about this mysterious guitarist who appears in all the show photos.

ADTR-7

After my three songs were up and I was permitted to re-enter the venue, I was eager to recapture the euphoria I had felt previously, now as a more committed fan of the scene. It was upon re-entering that I noticed the venue’s segregation. For me, concerts are a place of equality—especially rock, metal, and hardcore shows—and it didn’t sit right with me that the majority of the audience was excluded from “The Pit” where moshing and crowd surfing take place, simply because they didn’t purchase upgrade tickets. Perhaps I’m more accustomed to bands at festivals or smaller venues, but being unable to get close to the action and feel the energy seemed unfair. While I stayed and enjoyed ADTR from a distance, I found myself constantly on my tiptoes, trying to peer over into the VIP area to gauge the size of the mosh pit or catch some cool crowd surfing. Speaking of which, if you’ve never been to an ADTR concert, they have a unique bit where they encourage the audience to stand/surf on top of someone who is already crowd surfing—a staple of their performances. I believe this division in the crowd is likely a venue regulation, not a tour ploy to make more money.

ADTR-12

In the end, this night with A Day To Remember and the rest of the lineup at Red Hat Amphitheater was a full-throttle blast from start to finish, reminding me why I fell in love with the metal and hardcore scene. Despite the slight disappointment with the venue’s segregated sections, the concerts showed that music—especially the kind with guitars cranked up and drums that hit hard—still has the power to unite us. Each band brought something unique to the stage, from Pain of Truth’s raw ferocity to ADTR’s anthemic bangers that had us all reaching for the sky, even if from a distance. And while the mysterious new guitarist for ADTR added an element of intrigue, the night was ultimately about the music and the community it fosters. As the lights went down and the final echoes of the encore faded, I walked away with my ears ringing, my heart full, and a renewed sense of connection to this wildly pulsating world of metal and hardcore music. No matter the barriers, the spirit of the pit—unyielding and wild—lives on in every chord struck and every lyric belted. Tonight, just like that first time at Blue Ridge, I was reminded why this music, this scene, is a relentless force in my life.

    Awesome blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?

    Would you propose starting with a free platform
    like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed ..

    Any recommendations? Bless you!

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and
    was curious what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having
    a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100%
    positive. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks

    Users can choose to register using their phone number, email, or social media

    your currency during this step to avoid any conversion fees later
    on.

    Once you’ve selected your preferred method of registration, you’ll be prompted to fill in some basic details.
    It’s crucial to provide accurate information to avoid any issues with
    account verification or withdrawals in the future.

    Look for the padlock symbol in the browser’s address bar, indicating a secure connection. Once on the site, enter your credentials—email or username and password.

    For enhanced security, it’s advisable to enable 2FA, which requires a secondary verification step via SMS or
    an authenticator app. This extra layer significantly reduces the risk of account breaches.

    Here’s a quick comparison of features for Pakistani users:

    communication for Pakistani users. Additionally, keeping software and browsers updated will

    Engage in Wagering Through Most Bet Live Betting
    Engaging in wagering through Most Bet Live Betting offers an exhilarating experience for punters in Pakistan. This platform
    stands out for its user-friendly interface and a wide array
    of live betting options, making it a top choice for both
    seasoned bettors and newcomers. With the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) as a supported currency, users can seamlessly deposit and withdraw funds
    without the hassle of currency conversion.

    Most Bet provides an extensive selection of sports to
    bet on, including cricket, football, and horse racing, which are particularly
    popular among Pakistani bettors. The thrill of live betting lies in its dynamic nature, allowing users to
    place bets as the action unfolds. This means you can make informed decisions based on real-time events rather than relying

    something for every sports enthusiast.

    Live Streaming: Watch the action live and make more informed betting decisions.

    Strategies to Enhance Your Earnings on Mostbet Live Betting
    For bettors in Pakistan looking to enhance their earnings on Mostbet Live Betting, employing effective strategies is crucial.
    One of the primary tactics is to stay informed about the teams and players
    involved. By understanding the form, injuries,
    and historical performances, bettors can make more educated decisions.
    Additionally, keeping an eye on live statistics during
    matches can provide insights into potential shifts in momentum, allowing for timely bets that capitalize on changing odds.

    Another effective strategy is to manage your bankroll wisely.
    Setting a budget in PKR and sticking to it helps prevent impulsive betting decisions that could lead to significant losses.
    Bettors should consider using a staking plan, such as the Kelly Criterion or flat betting, which helps in optimizing bet sizes based on confidence levels
    and available capital. This disciplined approach ensures long-term sustainability
    and reduces the risk of depleting one’s bankroll prematurely.

    Leveraging Mostbet’s features can also significantly boost earnings.
    The platform offers various bonuses and promotions that can be
    utilized strategically. For instance, taking advantage of deposit bonuses or free bets
    can provide additional funds to wager without risking personal capital.

    It’s important to read the terms and conditions associated with these offers to maximize their benefits effectively.

    Lastly, diversifying bets across different sports or markets can enhance potential returns.

    Instead of focusing solely on popular sports like cricket or football, exploring other
    options such as tennis or eSports might present valuable opportunities with less competition from other bettors.
    This diversification not only spreads risk but also increases the chances of finding
    favorable odds and outcomes. By implementing these strategies,
    Pakistani bettors can optimize their experience on Mostbet Live Betting and potentially increase their earnings significantly.

    Get the Most Bet App for Seamless Mobile Wagering
    For punters in Pakistan seeking a top-notch mobile wagering experience, the Most Bet app stands out as a premier choice.

    simplifies the betting process.

    mind while they enjoy their betting activities. Additionally, the app provides multiple
