Concert Review ~ Nothing More, From Ashes to New, Set it Off and Post Profit
This past weekend, Nothing More, From Ashes to New and Post Profit performed at the House of Blues in Orlando. The show was sold out and the capacity of that HoB is 1500 people. That's a lot of folks.
Post Profit opened the show. Post Profit is a really new band. They only have one album out as of today. The band consists of Matt Jackson (vocals and guitar), Nick Hawner (Vocals and guitar), Zack Hicks (drums and vocals) and Jordan Conley (bass guitar). They hail from Texas. They came out blazing and blew the crowd away. They played songs like Cancer Culture, Drug Emporium and more.
The crowd really took to Post Profit.
Next up was From Ashes to New. Matt Brandyberry, Danny Case, Lance Dowdle and Maty Madiro put on a helluva show in front of the sold out crowd. Many folks were complaining that their set wasn't long enough. People have to remember that openers will not have the same amount of songs in their set as the headliner. Brandyberry, as usual, poured his heart out to the crowd.
Next up was Set it Off. Never experiencing Set it Off, made this extra special. Set if Off consists of Cody Carson, Zach DeWall and Maxx Danziger. Their set was very entertaining and they even played a cover of Points of Authority by Linkin Park. They did the song justice. Their set was a slight bit longer than Post Profit and From Ashes to New, but they have been in the business a bit longer than them.
Finally, it was time for Nothing More. Of course, they started off their set with the amazing Alan Watts and came out with a bang performing House on Sand. Hawkins was impressive covering Eric Vanlerberghe's featured part on the song. Nothing More's set consisted of six songs off their new album, Carnal, as well as plenty of their best hits, including Don't Stop, Let Em Burn, and fan favorite, Jenny.
Guitarist Mark Vollelunga blew everyone away performing Sinizter's featured part of Stuck, as well. Daniel Oliver was entertaining as always. Ben Anderson and Hawkins continuously blows their crowds away with their dual drumming during Tired of Winning, which sits directly at the middle of their set.
If you have never experienced the House of Blues Orlando or any of these bands, this is a highly recommend. House of Blues Orlando gets four out of five stars and the show itself gets five stars!
