Love Hate Hero

Tuesday Nov. 13
Love Hate Hero, So They Say, Tokyo Rose,
Stab the Sky and locals
Orpheum

School has been getting me down. And this night, all I wanted to do was sit in my room and sulk.

But, I had already bought a ticket to go to this show, so I dragged my ass out of bed and trudged down to Ybor.

And boy, it did me some good.


I missed the first two of the local bands, but caught Tampa's own Stab the Sky. I've seen them play several times, and they just get better and better. They've definitely come into their own, so you guys will have to look out for them.

I was most excited about Tokyo Rose. They were a high school favorite of mine. Tokyo Rose played songs off several of their albums, and I couldn't help but dance. I only wish more people would have shown up to appreciate their talent.

So They Say was next. They were pretty good, even if they were tripping balls and the treble was too loud.

Love Hate Hero finished up the night. More of a screamo type band with a hint of metal in their guitar chord progressions, Kevin "Thrasher" shredded some great guitar riffs to compliment the music of the night.



A great show reminiscent of my younger years.
