A Day To Remember Reassembled Acoustic Theatre Tour
A Day To Remember (ADTR) announced another phenomenal tour back in October also featuring Wage War as opening support. ADTR stated that they “are slowing it down” for this tour. The band named this tour after a song from their sixth studio album Bad Vibrations. ADTR always puts on an amazing show with their use of pyrotechnics, confetti cannons & giant beach balls. I can’t wait to see what they have in store for this acoustic tour.
Wage War is also a metalcore band native to Ocala, Florida. The band has been signed to Fearless Records since 2015, they have released 4 studio albums. The most recent album came out in 2021 called Manic. The band was very interactive with the crowd. Chris Gaylord (guitarist) personally thanked each person that was able to make this tour actually happen from their guitar tuner to the soundboard tech. Each member of the band expressed how grateful and thankful they were for the fans and all the support they have had since becoming a band. The band played a variety of songs, some they played slow. Once they started playing “Prison”, they picked up the tempo and made this song more upbeat for the fans compared to the first few songs they played. Briton Bond (singer) & Cody Quistad switched things up for this next song called “Hurt”. Cody jumped on the keyboard, while Briton grabbed a guitar, before the band even started playing they had to crack a little fun over at Chris. On one of the bands previous tours, they stated that Chris had played this entire song wrong but didn’t give up and kept going until it was over. I really enjoyed this set from Wage War, it show cases raw emotion and a side of them we normally don’t get to see.

A Day To Remember is an American rock band from Ocala, Florida. They are known for their unusual amalgamation of metal core and pop punk. The band has released seven studio albums to date, Their first album released is called And Their Name Was Treason, and their most recent album is called You’re Welcome. For this particular tour the band brought on extra members to play the keyboard, bass, sound mixer & sing. A Day To Remember debuted songs they never played before this tour, such as “I Surrender”, to make this song extra special Jeremy McKinnon (singer) pulled out a guitar to play along. Kevin Skaff (guitarist) had to have a guitar change on every single song except for the first two. The band made a joke saying that we have to take a shot every time we see Cowboy (guitar tech) switch guitars for Kevin. By the time they started playing “I'm Made of Wax, Larry, What Are You Made Of?” fans started dancing up and down the isles to get the band to notice them, during this song there was also an acoustic guitar solo. I don’t want to spoil all the surprises that A Day To Remember has in store. Check out the rest of the tour to see what else the band has in store for your date.
