Evanescence brought a powerful mix of emotion, intensity, and musicianship to Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre, delivering a performance that reminded fans why the band continues to stand among rock’s most enduring acts. I don’t say this lightly. It feels like they’re better live now than they’ve ever been. We’ve had the chance to see them multiple times, and this show stood out. Balancing beloved classics with a healthy selection of newer material, the evening showcased a group that isn’t content to simply relive the past. Instead, Evanescence embraced every era of its catalog, creating a show that felt both nostalgic and refreshingly current.

Muse brought the U.S. leg of their Will Of The People Tour to a close right here in Salt Lake City on Thursday April 20. I’ve seen tour openers many times. Often, they’ll have some sound issues, or other technical kinks to work out, but they usually go over pretty well. I’m sure behind the scenes they’re seeing a lot more going on than we do in the crowd. I haven’t seen a lot of tour closers but when I have the band seems a little road weary, or mentally already on vacation. This was not the case with Muse, Evanescence, or Highly Suspect. You would think they were all in mid tour mode with how well this tour flowed.
