First up were The Last Martyr with their high energy set of Dark rock originals. They also threw in a Linkin Park cover while they were at it. Being an opening act is sometimes hard to get the crowd going but after a few songs people were moshing about to their music.
Next up were FANGZ with their punk rock all dressed up in tracksuit pants and sweatshirt. They got the crowd going with banter and alot of energy on stage also played a cover of the vines ‘Get Free’. They paved the way for the mighty RedHook to take the stage.
Redhook played a mixture of old and new in a fast past 30+ minute set including a short cover and near the end of their set they brought a friend Mason from Pridelands up on stage to perform Redhooks new single ‘Kamikaze’ to sing the vocals in place of Will King from Windwaker who couldn’t be there.
Finally for Redhooks last song of the night and the title track to their new EP ‘Bad Decisions’ they brought up all members of The Last Martyr and Fangz to sing backing vocals while in the crowd there was a mass pillow fight from pillows thrown into the crowd by the bands.
Be sure to go see them live when you can.
