ASKING ALEXANDRIA AND FRIENDS SET LOS ANGELES ABLAZE AT THE BELASCO
“Do not stand in front of the cannons. You will either be burned or frozen badly," warned one of the production crew members last night as they prepped for a high-intensity show. And they weren’t kidding. The atmosphere inside The Belasco in Los Angeles was nothing short of electric and pulsating energy.
Headlined by Asking Alexandria, the concert was a powerhouse event, igniting the stage in front of a packed crowd. Memphis May Fire and The Word Alive opened with dynamic sets, each carving out their raw soundscapes that roared through the historic venue. The Word Alive set the pace, warming the audience up with heavy guitar riffs and crowd-rousing anthems that had the room throbbing. Following them, Memphis May Fire took the stage with an explosive set, tightening the grip on the audience’s attention and setting the bar even higher. Backed by those iconic smoke cannons, they took the night up slightly.
But the main act, Asking Alexandria, was what everyone came for, and they delivered with fierce energy. The synergy between the band and the crowd was unmistakable as fans shouted along with every song. Frontman Danny Worsnop engaged the crowd with his charismatic stage presence, sharing anecdotes and expressing gratitude for the fans' unwavering support.
From the blaring sound to the flickering lights and heated effects, it was a visceral, full-throttle experience that left no one untouched. Each song seemed to build on the last, escalating to an unforgettable finish that underscored why Asking Alexandria remains such a powerful presence in the rock scene. The night was a testament to the enduring passion of live music and the unbreakable bond between artists and fans.
