Sevendust's 'All I See is War' Tour

August 16, 2019

A year after it’s release Sevendust has continued to tour on the release of ‘All I See is War’ – one of the strongest albums the band has released in it’s two decade existence. 

This tour has Sevendust branching out to new fans as they’ve joined a co-headline run with Skillet opening them to many new faces who may have never normally come to a Sevendust concert.


Though the show was on a Wednesdasy night the crowd was clearly in the weekend state of mind as the beer lines wrapped the Freedom Hall Convention at one point in the night before the band’s set. After a supporting set from Pop Evil the stage was set and many of the fans wearing Sevendust shirts grew with anticipation for the set that was going to come. The band had been in the area last a bit over a year ago down the street at the iconic Chameleon Club and many of the same faces packed the crowd of the much larger Freedom Hall Convention Center for Sevendust’s return.



In typical Sevendust fashion the stage was a wash of dramatic color and strobes as Lajon Witherspoon grabbed the microphone to start the night off with a powerful version of “Dirty” from ‘All I See Is War’ that got the crowd moving early. While the band was focused on their new album Sevendust is a band rooted with history and they didn’t shy away from that as they gave the crowd “Denial” as second song of the set – one of their biggest/well known songs.

Sevendust has evolved over the years they have remained very self aware as to what their core sound is and their setlist continues to display this. While the band closed the set with a slower and heartfelt “Thank You” it wasn’t lacking on the heavier side of things as “Face to Face,” “Praise,” and “Pieces” all lead up to the closing number. The crowd remained engaged through the entire set and the band did a great job of feeding off their energy as they rotated around the stage all set.


Across a 14 song set Sevendust why they are touring mainstay and why the deserve to be known as one of the best live bands in metal. The diversity of the set made for a well paced show and the mixture of new content and old content gave all of the fans something to enjoy. Not to mention the fact that the set was accessible enough for the fans in attendance who may have never been to a Sevendust show before. The mosh pit is for everyone and Sevendust welcomed the Lancaster crowd with open arms on a Wednesday night for a show that won’t be soon forgotten in the local scene.

Stone Temple Pilots return to Pennsylvania to headline RockFest

By Matt Christine • September 16, 2025
Stone Temple Pilots’ return to Pennsylvania for RockFest was more than just another stop on tour as the band isn't on the road promoting a new album or anything particular at the moment making this one off show truly special. Their festival headline slot was a true celebration of a band that has not only endured but continues to thrive. After more than twenty years of music, their headline performance in Grantville showed that Stone Temple Pilots are still writing their best chapters. When Jeff Gutt first stepped in as lead singer, fans were curious about how he would fill the shoes of such an iconic role of those who came before him. A few years and countless shows later, there’s no longer any question. Gutt has evolved into the frontman the band always seemed to be waiting for - powerful, confident, and endlessly engaging. His vocals are as sharp and reliable as ever, but his presence has grown into something magnetic. Whether pacing the stage with fiery energy or locking eyes with fans in the crowd, Gutt now owns every moment in the spotlight. It has reached a point where it is harder to imagine Stone Temple Pilots without Gutt versus any version prior to his arrival with the band. As always, Robert and Dean DeLeo provided the backbone of STP’s unmistakable sound. Their tight musicianship and playful energy were the perfect counterbalance to Gutt’s intensity as he sprinted around the stage (and even jump off into the crowd at one point). The brothers looked like they were having just as much fun as the crowd, trading riffs, smiles, and moments of pure musical joy throughout the night. It was a reminder that their chemistry is the true heartbeat of this band, and it’s never sounded stronger. The night was a journey through the full scope of Stone Temple Pilots’ career. Fans were treated to a perfect balance of old favorites, deeper cuts, and fresh material. “Big Bang Baby” was a standout moment of the set early on, soaring with Gutt’s vocals. Hearing the classics re-energized while newer songs slid in seamlessly made the set feel both nostalgic and fresh at the same time. If this RockFest performance was any indication, Stone Temple Pilots are in the middle of an exciting new era. For long-time listeners and new fans alike, that means one thing: it’s time to get ready for more shows, more songs, and more unforgettable nights like this one. What is next for Stone Temple Pilots may be up in the air but one thing is for certain, they remain one of the tightest live bands in the genre.
