Equinox

Halestorm/Trapt/Shinedown Nightclub 9:30 4/20/06

I think it went a little something like this.

Halestorm's set. Titles unknown. I'd listen to them again.

Trapt's set. Stand Up, Hollowman, Made of Glass, Use Me to Use You, Echo, Disconnected, Stories, These Walls, Waiting, Stillframe, Headstrong. They played well, they just never looked at the audience. It could have been the same show if there was no audience.

Shinedown's set. Fly from the Inside, Left Out, Heroes, I Dare You, Simple Man, Begin Again, Burning Bright, Yer Majesty, 45, Atmosphere, Save Me. They played much better than expected, and were very audience friendly. Singer looked a little frightening and talked too much at times, but did not detract.

The split mosh pit then come back together trick was definitely done by Chimaira first (who funnily enough I'm seeing soon), but goodness knows who stole what from who. When I looked behind me, it looked chaotic, but yet in the front it seemed relatively calm.

Thank you.

I think Chris is the only one that actually makes eye contact with the crowd anymore. I'm debating if I want to go to the show or not when it rolls through here. Love the Trapt guys but it's on a weekday and it's 22 bucks for a ticket.:\

Oh and the split mosh pit thing, or braveheart-style... I saw the most badass one a few years back. Endfest (big radio fest). Papa Roach. Split the crow of probably more than a 1000 kids and they all charged (shockingly)... and the hugest circle pit formed. Watching it from the hill, holy crap it was intense. I'm glad I wasn't in that crowd.

I debated going to see them the last time they came here just after Someone in Control came out. I ended up not going. I probably would have skipped this one too if Shinedown wasn't on the bill. I love Trapt's songs and all, but seeing them live interests me less and less these days.

Braveheart-style. That is the perfect term for it.

yea, I saw them in november cuz I do enjoy their live show but it has gone a bit downhill. However Blindside was with them and that show did kick ass. I always end up enjoying myself at Trapt shows... then again part of it is cuz of who I go with.
