Four Year Strong | Madison, TN
Kicking the night off to a sold-out show at Eastside Bowl, Canadian pop-punk band, Youth Fountain caught the attention of the crowd with “My Mental Health”. Bouncing between their two albums before ending with the crowd favorite, “Blooms”, the band set the foundation for the rest of the evening.
Next was Microwave, coming out swinging with “Mirrors”. They continued their set playing some of their best hits including “Dull”, “Vomit”, and even a little snip of their cover of “Santeria”. In between songs the band mentioned how much they enjoy playing in Nashville and how it feels like a second home to them.
Knuckle Puck continued the momentum with a nearly 45 minute set of fan favorites spread across all of their albums and EPs, along with their newest single, “Groundhog Day”. Despite being a supporting act on the tour, the band brought the same energy that they would as a headliner, which is something that’s not often seen.
It was finally time for Four Year Strong to throw it back to 2010. Performing Enemy of the World in full nearly front-to-back brought back a kind of nostalgia that even the youngest fan would be able to understand. From the first chorus of the opening song until the closing note, fans were crowdsurfing and moshing as if this was Warped Tour in its prime rather than a venue in a bowling alley. Even after the blast from the past, Four Year Strong had a few more jams to play from their other albums including “We All Float Down Here”, “Go Down in History”, and “Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die”.
