Ĭarrying on with “Hold On ‘Til May”, a fan favorite track off of Collide With The Sky, Vic Fuentes let everyone in attendance really take the lead on the performance, the crowd singing the majority of the song while the musicians onstage stared back with both smiles and looks of humility on their faces. With a mix of strong percussion breakdowns from drummer Mike Fuentes and heavy guitar riffs played by both Vic Fuentes and Tony Perry, “The Divine Zero” was a highlight of the night, the song showing off each of the musician’s ability with their given instruments and also the quality of songwriting that is to come with the new set of songs featured on Misadventures. Playing an energy filled performance of “Bulls In The Bronx”, from their 2012 release Collide With The Sky, that left the crowd singing over frontman Vic Fuentes, the band kicked in with “The Divine Zero”, another track off of Misadventures that was released back in June to tie over their eager fans until the album release.
