Falling In Reverse in Birmingham the night after Papa Roach
in Mobile? Don’t mind if I do. At first, I debated going to this show because
of all of the Ronnie drama. Then I reminded myself, “It’s not about the drama.
It’s about the music.” So I bought my ticket. I did not have to work that day
so I left immediately after school and got there around 4:45. I got inside a
little after seven, so luckily it was not too hot outside. There had to have
been less than a hundred people there the entire night, which made the show
really awesome because I was in the front on the barricade! The first band of
the night was from Nashville. They were called Voodoo Prophets. They were not
my favorite and they were very out of place. They covered an Iron Maiden song
and a Lamb of God song. The next band was American Fang. They were from Texas
and they were a lot better than the previous band. They were a little more in
place than the first band. Then it was time for Falling In Reverse. Before they
started, the whole crowd started a “RONNIE RONNIE RONNIE” chant. It made me
feel bad for the other people in the band, but they are probably used to it.
They played
I'm Not a Vampire
Sink or Swim
Good Girls Bad Guys (Yes!)
Rolling Stone (New song)
Raised By Wolves
Born To Lead (New song)
Tragic Magic (My favorite. The whole crowd sang the
LA-LA-LALALA part and it was awesome. )
Goodbye Graceful (Yes!)
Situations (OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! Ronnie walked out
and said this is a song called Situations and me, and everyone else in the room,
freaked out. I have wanted to hear this song live for a long time.)
The Drug In Me Is You (Some young girls threw their bras on
stage and Ronnie said “No wonder everyone thinks I’m a fucking pedophile!” and
he threw the bras back to them)
This
show was definitely fun and I am so glad that I went. As far as all the drama
is concerned, I think everyone underestimates Ronnie. He is a great,
charismatic person and I really hope more people can realize that. Props to
you, Mr. Radke.
