If Godsmack is coming to your town, you will not want to miss it!

Five for Fighting (aka John Ondrasik) joined Barenaked Ladies on their “Last Summer on Earth” tour and performed July 5th at The Anthem, in Washington, DC. He was joined by drummer Randy Cooke, bassist Sean Hurley, and guitarist Peter Thorn. Ondrasik’s high energy performance definitely warmed up the crowd and got the fans moving.

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

The Greatest Band on Earth, the mighty Tenacious D brought their 2022 tour to the TD Pavilion at the Mann Center for the Performing Arts in Philadelphia recently. A steady rain couldn’t stop fans from filling the venue to capacity. The show was livestreamed on nugs.net to raise funds for Rock The Vote. Glad I was able to photograph this performance.

This show took place at the Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, OH on 8/23/22.

The Weekend (Photo by Andy Jillson)

The Weekend put on an out-of-this-world performance at FedEx Field in Landover, MD on 7/30/22. This was a sold-out show and my biggest show to date. This was also one of the most “high-tech” musical productions I’ve seen. I was there on the sidelines (w/ 10 other photographers) doing my best to capture some of the magic, but it was tough. So much chaotic excitement. Only had two songs to take pics and an extremely small space to stand. I had a blast, though!

The “After Hours Til Dawn Tour” is The Weekend’s first-ever stadium tour. Fans had been anxiously awaiting this show. After several delays due to COVID, concert-goers had their redemption. DC. MD, and VA residents were all in attendance. Anyway, in this photo flashback we’re viewing pics of The Weekend. Be sure to check The Weekend’s Official Website for music, news, and all upcoming tour dates. All images copyright and courtesy of Andy Jillson.
