Astoria is full up with hot/sweaty metal fans
for tonight’s Taste Of Chaos. A lot of people
have been seen wandering around in Story Of The
Year tees as they’re the next band to perform.
A roar of screams from the crowd as the stage
crew change back drops for Story Of The Year who
take to the stage moments later with opener ‘And
The Hero Will Drown’.
There’s an outstanding atmosphere here tonight
as it’s such a big venue people on the balcony’s
upstairs are still having as much fun as the people
getting crushed in the mosh pit. Vocalist Dan
Marsala jumps into the crowd while singing ‘Falling
Down’ as he moves backwards and forwards
on innocent crowd members, not for long though
as the security is quick to move in and save him.
Moving onto some new songs from their debut album
“The Black Swan”, everyone sings along
to favourite “Wake Up” as Dan instructs
the crowd to open up a huge circle pit. The band
are determined to put on a good show as there’s
so much energy pumping off the stage for another
new song “Choose Your Fate” with guitarist
Philip Sneed and bassist Adam Russell jumping
around encouraging the crowd to jump and sing
along. The crowd take in every second of this
moment they are on stage as a few members from
the front row head bang along.
Playing a mix of old and new songs Story Of The
Year finish off their set with an old favourite
‘Is This My Fate He Asked Them’ as
the circle pit get’s going one last time!
