Ballyhoo! (Photo by John Krebs)

Ballyhoo! are currently on their Shellshock Tour 2024 with support from The Harbor Boys and they stopped to perform at Tally Ho Theater on 2/10/2024. The reggae/beach rock band from Baltimore, MD played a sold out show and everyone in attendance had an amazing time! I first discovered Ballyhoo! when they opened for Reel Big Fish and Less Than Jake back in 2015 and when I saw they were coming to Tally Ho, I immediately jumped to cover the show! Ballyhoo! rocked Tally Ho and all in attendance had a night to remember!

Anyway, continue reading below for more photos of Ballyhoo! and my full review of the show. Be sure to check out Ballyhoo!’s website for music, videos, news, and tickets for all upcoming tour dates. All images copyright and courtesy of John Krebs.

Story of the Year (Photo by John Krebs)

Story of the Year are currently on the second leg of their Page Avenue 20th anniversary tour and stopped to perform at Rams Head Live! in Baltimore, MD. They are touring till the end of January with support from Youth Fountain and We The Kings. I was very excited to cover this show because I have been a fan of Story of the Year since they opened for Linkin Park back in 2004 and they have been one of my favorites since then. The 20th anniversary show was a phenomenal evening consisting of belted ballads, entertaining stage presence, and non-stop energy!

August Burns Red finished their Rescue & Restore 10 year anniversary tour with their annual Christmas Burns Red festival, held in their hometown of Lancaster, PA. Christmas Burns Red is a two day show with different bands and setlists each night! I was able to catch night two of this event and it was definitely an astonishing finale. August Burns Red had support from Kaonashi, Signs of the Swarm, Galactic Empire, Kublai Khan TX, and Between the Buried and Me. Between catchy riffs, brutal growls, mic spinning, and over 3000 people jumping to “White Washed,” it was definitely a night to remember!

The Devil Wears Prada stopped to perform at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, MD on 9/27/2023. The band is currently on their “Metalcore Dropouts” tour with Landmvrks, Counterparts, and Fit For A King. Earlier this year I photographed TDWP as an opener for August Burns Red, but it was amazing to see them as the headliner!

Parkway Drive are currently on their “Monsters of OZ” tour with support from Make Them Suffer, Northlane, and The Amity Affliction. This monstrous tour stopped to perform at Jacobs Pavilion in Cleveland, OH on 9/22/2023. Parkway Drive has a special place in my heart because they were the band I discovered in high school and they opened the doors for me into heavier music. When I heard the song “Flesh, Bone, and Weakness” I was not prepared for double bass pedal intro and I’ve been hooked ever since. Being able to photograph Parkway Drive has been a dream of mine and what originally prompted me to become a concert photographer and I am extremely happy with how these photos turned out!

Asking Alexandria stopped to perform at Rams Head Live! in Baltimore, MD on 9/7/2023. The band is currently on their “Psycho Thunder Tour” with support from Zero 9:36 and The Hu. One of the major sounds of my freshman year in college was Danny Worsnop screaming the words “Oh my God!” followed by heavy and insane guitar riffs. I have been a fan of Asking Alexandria for years and this was my first time seeing them perform live. This concert was an amazing spectacle and the crowd never stopped moving!

Mr. Bungle recently announced a short fall tour with several shows hitting the east coast. The avant-garde thrash metal martyr’s will be kicking off the tour at Rams Head Live in Baltimore, MD on September 5th. This is a dream show for me and anyone that calls themselves a “metalhead.” The band’s lineup consists of original members Mike Patton, Trevor Dunn, and Trey Spruance alongside Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian and Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo. Wow. That’s incredible.

Anyway, tickets for the show at Rams Head Live are available HERE. Tickets for all other shows on the fall tour are available HERE. Be sure to buy your tickets asap. I expect sold out venues and frenzied crowds. This tour will be historic. Come join us!
