8.24.24 Knockdown Center, Brooklyn, NY
A hot sweaty night in Queens at a former industrial manufacturing plant turned music complex known as the Knockdown Center was an ideal setting for a limited run of dates for the Power Trip reunion. I had been fortunate enough to have captured PT a handful of times when Riley Gale (RIP) was still kicking ass, so I was really looking forward to getting a chance to see this homage on the anniversary of his passing. It did not disappoint, bodies were flying over the rail left and right and I had to keep my head on a swivel. You can check out the talented @tinfoilbiter on instagram for a photo of me being courteous to a fan’s desire to sing along after coming over the barricade. It was a party and the homies came out from far and wide for this only east coast date.

It was unfortunate that Mil-Spec had to drop off the day of the show, but it was a stacked lineup from start to finish. The Final Agony started things off, featuring the drummer from Eternal Champion and Sumerlands on vocals, which thoroughly impressed me, I love finding new music live. Frozen Soul ripped, with great energy, solid riffs, and I think I made them look pretty badass in the photos.

I’m biased. I love Ceremony and I thought they had a great set. They’re an amazing band to photograph, and they often bring out the best in me. Don’t know when I’ll get a chance to see them again, so I cherish the chances I do get. This was a start-to-finish banger, I don’t know Power Trip’s plans moving forward, but I support this current incarnation and wish them the best going forward.
