When I heard that 311 and AWOLNATION were touring together I thought it was such an unusual pairing. Would they have the same fans? I wasn’t sure the very different sounding bands would be a palate best suited for a concert. But the show was a good time. Both bands came out, did their thing and the audience loved it.

Tuesday evening punk-rock fans gathered at The Commonwealth Room in Salt Lake City to attend The Void Eternal tour by Emo-Rapper Joe Mulherin, better known as nothing, nowhere. Before his set, SeeYouSpaceCowboy performed a very intense screamo set. Frontwoman Connie Sgarbossa sang and screamed her heart out. Their music came from a place of pain as they covered songs touching on heartbreak and substance abuse/addiction. While it may not be everyone’s cup of tea the rock fans in the building were loving it! They covered songs such as “bloodstainedeyes” and “Misinterpreting Constellations”.

Chappell Roan’s concert was a captivating experience. Showcasing her unique blend of soulful vocals and compelling songwriting. The Depot buzzed with anticipation as she took the stage. I spoke to a few fans in the front row.  They told me that the night was “Space” themed. People across the general admission floor were dressed as aliens, astronauts, and everything in between. These fans also told me that I was in for a great show.  Little did they know that I had seen Chappell Roan in concert.  I got to be there at her sold-out show the Soundwell just a few blocks from The Depot.
