Tonight three great bands are playing at the Worcester Palladium tonight in Massachusetts. Will I be there? No. Will I sit at home thinking about how much I want to be there? More than you could possibly imagine. Wondering why? Three main reasons: Rise Against, Alkaline Trio and Thrice. To add a fourth reason, the openers, The Gaslight Anthem. Now I myself cannot admit to listening to the Gaslight Anthem but even if they were to be the worst band ever (they are not, I can almost guarantee I have heard worst) the three headliners would more than make up for it. If you are a fan of any of these bands, you need to be at this show because the lineup is just impeccable.
To give a brief synopsis of what this concert is going to be like tonight, the show will open with The Gaslight Anthem, a New Jersey punk band who have toured with fellow punk band, Against Me!, and are known for their love of Bruce Springsteen. Then Thrice will take the stage. Thrice is a band once know solely as being a hardcore band who has since transformed themselves into highly respected musicians, due to the release of their third album, The Artist in the Ambulance. Alkaline Trio will then take over, providing the audience with music of a darker theme while retaining a catchy chorus. Finally Rise Against’s politically driven lyrics delivered by the phenomenal Tim McIlrath is sure to blow you away.
This show is set up to be a memorable one from opening through to the final chord. If you plan to attend, prepare yourself for some amazing punk music with a real message. Don’t be that guy and remember that I will be envious of you beyond belief tomorrow. Tickets are available at the door.
