We had a chance to speak with the guy from Nothing More at Dirt Fest 2014 and found out the inspiration behind their songs 'Jenny' and 'The Matthew Effect.'
Last weekend during Dirt Fest you may have noticed a tent where there were a bunch of people jumping around and rocking out with some inflatables. Well that was the Ourtunez tent and now we know why folks were acting all goofy in there.
It was no secret to anyone that knows me or listens to my show, that Powerman 5000 was the band I was most excited to see at Dirt Fest 2014. What you might not know is the bands futuristic front man, Spider One, is also an artist.
Another Dirt Fest has come and gone. It was killer, wasn't it? More than 50 bands rocked six stages at this year's Dirt Fest, and while the temps were hot, the performances were even hotter.
When it comes to metal, Battlecross were the kings of Dirt Fest 2014. It started with the fans chanting Battlecross then they started chanting Kaleb which is frontman Gumby's son (coolest thing I saw all day), and then the metal started. It truly was a badass band to watch from start to finish.
Nonpoint enforced something known as the "Nonpoint Rule" at Dirt Fest 2014, meaning everyone had to bounce while they rocked the stage. Judging from this video, I'd say no one disobeyed. This is easily one of the best moments we captured on film this year.
There's no doubt that Nonpoint put on one of the best performances at Dirt Fest this past weekend. Elias had that crowd jumping around like nobody else, reminding all of us how important they still are to the rock world. In my opinion, they simply killed it!
Wow, is all I can really say about Killswitch Engage's performance over the weekend at Dirt Fest 2014. The band just looked and sounded larger than life as they headlined the entire event.
We had a lengthy convo with Nothing More at Dirt Fest 2014, where we touched on just about everything from the band's past, present and future -- see the full interview here!
Obviously this was fueled by this guy's hunger for metal and Killswitch Engage. Watch as this crazy Dirt Fester climbs a light pole with hopes of getting the best seat in the house... I think he did.
It's hard for us to catch and deliver all of the action at Dirt Fest every year, it's a good thing we have you and you have a camera. This is a compilation of bands that performed this year including Powerman 5000, Nothing More, Like a Storm, Nonpoint and Killswitch Engage.
