Yellowcard brought serious energy to Sandy, Utah, on May 21 as the “Up Up Down Down Tour” stopped at The Plaza at America First Field. With Plain White T’s and New Found Glory kicking off the night, the crowd was already fired up before Yellowcard even hit the stage.
I first heard about Plain White T’s coming to St. George back in December and I was so stoked! Northern Utah has plenty of concerts. I’d say year-round. Southern Utah doesn’t get a lot of love in that department. To say that the people of St. George were just as excited as I was is an understatement. As I pulled into the parking lot at the Cox Performing Arts Center at Dixie State University fifteen minutes before the concert started, I realized how packed it was going to be due to the lack of parking. As I picked up my tickets and headed in to snap photos, I barely managed to get past the crowded merch table lines. Walking by I heard so much excitement and buzzing. People anxiously waiting to get their merch in time to see the opening band.
