As far as being out on the road with BUCKCHERRY, the group felt as though the crew had really taken them under their wing and given them full support. Bassist Josh Mouser talked about how touring with BUCKCHERRY was really their first chance to show audiences what they are capable of on a much broader scale. As far as future plans, you can catch them touring with BUCKCHERRY through next month, playing the Aftershock Festival in Sacramento, and hitting the road once again this fall.

GIRL ON FIRE hit the stage with their new single “The Takedown” from their upcoming Century Media Records release. The crowd was into it right from the beginning. Their performance was tight and the show went on without any hiccups. The set was musically diverse; showing that GIRL ON FIRE is not some one-trick-pony. From heavy rockers to melodic ballads and everything in between, the band lived up to the hype and kept the part rolling.

BUCKCHERRY served up a great set that incorporated plenty of new songs from their latest release, Confessions, as well as the usual suspects of hits that encompass their entire career. With a tambourine in one hand and the microphone in the other, Josh Todd commanded the audience’s attention. I don’t think he hit a flat note all night…just sounded perfect vocally. The group just looked like they were having a great time on stage and the crowd was eating it up.

The show was rounded out by “Crazy Bitch”. “Do you have pussy control?” -asked Josh Todd before kicking off their huge hit song. For an encore, BUCKCHERRY returned to play two songs off of their new album - “Greed” and “Wrath” finished off an amazing night of rock n’ roll and partying. Afterwards BUCKCHERRY came out to their merch table to sign copies of Confessions.
