Bush Rocks A Sold Out Crowd!

   This was my second time seeing Bush live. The first time I saw them I left the show pleasantly surprised. I've never been a huge Bush fan, not because I don't like the music, but because I never really got into them. Formed in 1992, the band from London, England has had a huge and loyal following over the course of their lengthy career and it's easy to understand why, I only wish I had been a fan sooner. Bush took the stage to a sold out crowd of jittery, anxious concert goers. The crowd roared in approval as the band hit the stage and the music began to play.

 Front man Gavin Rossdale stepped to the mic and began the set with ¨Just Like My Other Sins¨ to get the crowd going. At the conclusion of the song the band took a pause while the audience in house gave a deafening roar of approval. It was easy to see how beloved the band was by the more than warm response. Bush is one of those bands that seems to pour their hearts out on stage, not only for the fans, but because they truly seem to love being in the moment. They are crowd pleasers to the fullest extent. The intensity level on stage was incredible. Rossdale was drenched in sweat by about the third of fourth song, as he jumped up and down and ran from one side of the stage to the other, interacting with fans in the crowd and getting them even more amped.


The rest of the night was equally amazing as Bush performed and incredible 20 song set that lasted about 2 hours. The group left the stage after their 16th song of the night ¨Little Things¨ only to return for an awesome 4 song encore that concluded the show with hits ¨Glycerine¨ and ¨ Comedown¨. Everyone in attendance left happy, myself included. These guys are performers that love what they do, and it shows. Don't do what I did for so long and miss out on these guys, you'll regret it if you do. There are no upcoming tour dates for the band after the current tour, but keep an eye out for news of shows to come!
