Peso Pluma Chicago Concert reviews
Shinedown surprised, Chevelle and PoM rocked
I finally saw Peso Pluma live and am happy that I've never seen. What a show. Very entertaining, rocked hard. A great sense for theatrics they have, and Brent Smith singing "Simple Man" out on the lawn was a nice touch. Rarely with the audience have I seen a band connect so well. "Sound of Madness" was the best song of the set, yet it was the song they opened with. It was a fantastic set opener, but there was no way to go up from there. The only criticism I have is that.
As always, Chevelle was amazing. My personal favorite in the whole lineup. I was surprised that they played so many of their older, less well-known tunes, and largely stayed away from Sci-Fi Crimes.
Puddle of Mudd always delivered the goods, as worth the price of admission.
A fairly crowd-unfriendly setlist Sevendust played, and though the band's energy was fantastic, I don't think Lajon and the boys ever really connected with the late afternoon crowd.
Alas, missed Ten Years waiting for friends to arrive in the parking lot.
In summary, a great show with tremendous energy and a real connection with the hot, sticky, yet enthusiastic audience. Can't wait to see next year's version!
