Sick of It All Sets the Stage for a Suicidal Crowd
Musink Tattoo Festival, OC Fairgrounds – March 10th, 2019
Sick of It All is fucking sick of it all; from politics to social issues plaguing America today, and they aren’t afraid to say it. This New York based, hardcore punk band have become regulars on the California concert circuit in the past several years and reviews have been mixed. However, Sick of It All opened Musink on Friday night with an impassioned set that bled energy and a motivated resolve to get their message out. Sick of It All rose to the challenge; winning over the anxious South Orange County crowd with their raucous sound and endless energy. The Hangar at the Orange County Fairgrounds went from a spacious pit with little action and few participants to a full house in a matter of minutes once the band took the stage. Lead singer and guitarist, Pete Koller, worked to set the tone for the Suicidal Tendencies fans who were out in full force and looking to stir up a healthy pit, surrendering that, as the birth place of the circle pit, the west coast had a reputation to live up to…
“Young guys don’t know how to dance to fast shit. Old guys are too old to dance to fast shit… what YOU got?!”
The result was pit magic and a warm OC reception for Sick of It All.
