Relentless...All Time Low

The quintessential place to dance around like a tit like a fake ID-wielding, alco-pop guzzling teen. Ahhh, those were the days! Yet while the others on the bill had no choice but to embrace the mosh pits that smashed the crowds, Baltimore's own pop-punkers All Time Low had to request one. This speed bump didn't stand in the way of the energetic quartet giving the Duracell bunny a run for his money though with entertainment from start to finish in the form of guitar solos, fashion tips, glow in the dark graffiti back drops and "gratitude from the top to the tip of his (Alex's) penis" kept the crowd bouncing. Alex Gaskarth's "love the energy in here, it's very Welsh...I have a little Welsh in me" followed by Jack Dawson's quick witted "You all have a little Alex in you. If you're lucky, you could have some of myself or Rian in you later." A sweet sentiment that wasn't lost on the sweaty pits of the audience.



The banter, dicking about on stage, taking the piss out of The Blackout and fart jokes combined with classic, punchy pop punk riffs created a set that was second to none in the fun stakes. No matter where you bounced, you felt like the band were looking right at you - surely a bonus for the female dominant, 14+ crowd whose screams could be heard worldwide with an encore of Damned If I Do Ya (Damned If I Don't). All in all, a good, unclean fun show.
