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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.

Hi there, I enjoy reading through your article post.
I wanted to write a little comment to support you. Annual servicing for reach trucks
like the **Toyota 8FBRE** and the **Raymond 7400 Series**
should typically be performed **once a year**. However, the exact
frequency can depend on several factors:
### Recommended Servicing Frequency
1. **Operational Intensity:**
– If the truck is used heavily or in demanding environments (e.g., high-volume
warehouses), more frequent servicing (every 6-8 months) may
be advisable.
2. **Manufacturer Recommendations:**
– Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific servicing intervals
tailored to the model and its intended use.
3. **Condition Monitoring:**
– Regularly monitor the truck’s performance and wear.
If you notice signs of wear or performance issues, more frequent servicing may be necessary.
4. **Compliance and Safety:**
– Some industries may have regulatory requirements mandating more frequent inspections and servicing to ensure safety standards are met.
### Summary
While annual servicing is standard, consider the operational demands and manufacturer recommendations to determine
if more frequent maintenance is necessary.
Regular servicing helps ensure the equipment operates efficiently and safely, reducing the risk of costly breakdowns.

Excellent write-up. I certainly love this site. Keep it
up! Maintaining aerial platforms properly is essential to
ensure their safety, reliability, and longevity. Here are some best practices for effective maintenance:
### 1. **Regular Inspections**
– **Scheduled Inspections**: Conduct thorough inspections before and after each use,
as well as regular comprehensive checks based on the
manufacturers recommendations.
– **Detailed Checklists**: Use detailed checklists to ensure all critical components,
such as hydraulic systems, electrical systems, and safety features, are thoroughly inspected.
### 2. **Preventive Maintenance Program**
– **Establish a Routine**: Create a preventive maintenance schedule that includes routine tasks
like lubrication, tightening bolts, and checking fluid levels.
– **Document Maintenance**: Keep detailed records of
all maintenance activities, repairs, and inspections to track the platforms condition over time.
### 3. **Hydraulic System Care**
– **Check for Leaks**: Regularly inspect hydraulic hoses and connections for signs of
leaks or wear.
– **Fluid Levels**: Monitor hydraulic fluid levels and replace fluids as needed to ensure optimal performance.
### 4. **Electrical System Maintenance**
– **Inspect Wiring**: Regularly check electrical connections for corrosion, fraying, or damage.
– **Battery Maintenance**: Keep batteries charged and terminals clean; replace batteries as recommended
to avoid power issues.
### 5. **Tire Maintenance**
– **Inspect Tires Regularly**: Check for proper inflation, wear, and damage to ensure safe operation.
– **Replace Worn Tires**: Replace tires that show significant
wear or damage to maintain stability and control.
### 6. **Cleaning Procedures**
– **Regular Cleaning**: Keep the platform clean to prevent debris buildup,
which can affect operation and safety.
– **Remove Corrosion**: Clean and treat any areas showing signs of rust or corrosion to prevent further
degradation.
### 7. **Safety Feature Testing**
– **Functionality Checks**: Regularly test all safety features, such as emergency
stop buttons, guardrails, and tilt indicators, to
ensure they are operational.
– **Replace Malfunctioning Parts**: Promptly address any issues with safety features to maintain a safe working environment.
### 8. **Training and Compliance**
– **Operator Training**: Provide ongoing training for operators on safe practices, equipment use,
and maintenance procedures.
– **PPE Compliance**: Ensure that all operators wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) while using the
aerial platform.
### 9. **Environmental Considerations**
– **Avoid Adverse Conditions**: Do not operate aerial platforms in severe weather conditions or on unstable surfaces.
– **Store Properly**: When not in use, store aerial platforms in a clean, dry environment to
protect them from the elements.
### 10. **Engage Professionals for Major Repairs**
– **Expert Maintenance**: For significant repairs or maintenance tasks beyond routine checks, consult
qualified technicians to ensure work is performed
correctly and safely.
### Conclusion
Implementing these best practices for maintaining aerial platforms can significantly reduce the likelihood of common issues and
enhance safety and efficiency. Regular inspections, preventive maintenance, and
proper operator training are key components of a successful maintenance strategy.
By prioritizing maintenance, organizations can extend the lifespan of their aerial platforms and ensure safe operations.
