Songs from the band’s HopE.P.assion EP and the recently released split with Handguns filled the set, with Last Call’s Austin Jeffers joining the band on vocals for “Front Porch Sunrise.” ...

Ten years since helping to launch a new wave of pop punk to the mainstream, New Found Glory finds itself on a tour to prove that Pop Punk’s Not Dead. The sentiment was obviously well-received in Las Vegas, as the tour’s November 19th stop at the Hard Rock Café on the Strip sold out completely, finding the venue more packed than I have ever seen it before with fans of the subgenre. ...

Bayside has long used “is a cult” as their band slogan (the amps on their current tour even spell out the four letter word) but looking out at the sea of kids in Bayside hoodies and tees (kudos to whoever designed the “It’s Always Sunny” parody shirt) on the packed House of Blues floor last Friday, it’s clear that they’re much more than that now. ...
