Halestorm / Chevelle a Family Affair
at first I didn’t think these two bands would exactly go together on the same bill.. I would classify Halestorm to be more Heavy Metal while Chevelle I would say was alternative.

Finally, the band came out blazing! “Why Go” Yay Eddie! Yay Stone! OMG Pearl Jam! Woo hoo! 3 rows from the stage yet I still couldn’t see! Plus the crowd was getting violent! People were losing their minds all around me, and I was losing my footing!
Incubus takes the stage with Brandon Boyd, the bands front man wearing a black button down shirt that was buttoned almost to the top and sporting the cutest preppiest haircut ever. Girls all around me were squealing in delight!
I even turned into Wayne Campbell from Wayne’s world at some point. You know the scene in the club when he see’s Tia Carrere for the first time up on stage and she goes all soft focus with stars everywhere!!
This band sorta came from nowhere and sky rocketed to fame. Could it be due to the fact that some celebs including Drew Barrymore were seen watching them play? Or maybe the TV show Gossip Girl is to blame/thank for this? Their music was featured in an episode.. next thing you know.. boom Madison Square Garden!
In my humble opinion, this band is a force to be reckoned with. Their sound is right up my alley. It’s like old school Cure with a grittier Nine Inch Nails flare. True Alternative Rock that has been missing from the music scene for way too long.
