Opening the show was Lakeview! I have never listened to this band before, but I always say that until I hear at least one song and I'll go “OH I know this song! I didn't know it was them!” I was really shocked how good they were honestly. And they were covered in tattoos which I was not EXPECTING AT ALL! Since I never listened to them, I didn't know what songs were being played unless they stated it before they performed the song. I know “Money Where Your Mouth is” was performed because of the lyrics, but I do as a person sometimes have a difficult time understanding lyrics and trying to comprehend what they are saying, but I was able to figure that song out! They played a cover Of “Lips of an Angel” and of course I started to sing along because I love that song! As an opening band; this band had the most energy I've seen in a long time and each member was eye-catching which made it difficult because it made me want to keep shooting shots.
Next up was Daughtry! I never really got into their music before, but his live performance sounded way better than the album in my opinion. I know their two famous songs “It’s Not Over” and “Home”, but besides that I didn’t know any other songs that they performed! Chris Daughtry has one of those voices that lures you in because of the range he has. It was so hot during their set and the sun was at its brightest, so it was so hard trying to get good photos! I was trying so hard to not pass out from the heat during their set. I may have not listened to them, but I would see them again in a heartbeat! During their set; I was standing next to this woman at the barricade and she had a full face of tears while singing along to Chris! I love when music hits all the emotions inside of you and you can feel free during a show!
