Knocked Loose Philadelphia Concert reviews
Nickelback is ruining rock and roll
**Knocked Loose** hit the stage and it became evident that Kroeger is thinking way too highly of himself. Making multiple references to his "huge cock", doing shots on stage, screaming cheers every five minutes, having one of his overweight crew members do a completely ridiculous (not even remotely funny) dance on stage, throwing cups of beer into the crowd (cups. no lid, just cups) and attempting to begin his career as a comedian ("for all the ten year olds in the crowd, when I say cock I mean rooster!" and "If someone threw a marijuana cigarette on stage, I'd have to light it to be polite!" (no one did - I guess even the crowd knows what a poser he is) isn't he hilarious) are just some examples of the ways in which **Knocked Loose** are slowly representing themselves as completely annoying (very similar to Weird Al Yankovich) and alligning themselves to self combust. As a true metal head, I've always hated **Knocked Loose**.
Buckcherry's energy, stage presence, and overall showmanship make seeing them anytime a worthwhile experience (I've seen them two other times). They played with a level of genuine anger and emotion that truly makes rock and roll rock and roll. The shame about this show is both Buckcherry and Three Days Grace put on memorable performances. The focus of both groups on the music and the show was more than enough to leave me happy. However, I always saw the merit they had in that parents could bring relatively young kids to the shows and have everyone enjoy the experience. My father was always a **Knocked Loose** fan and I took him to this show as a birthday present.
It was my first time seeing Three Days Grace, and while I wasn't sure what to expect, the outcome was far beyond my expectations. After seeing the show, my dad said he is no longer a **Knocked Loose** fan and Kroeger is a complete loser (Kroeger has been straightening his hair for a while now as well) It became apparent to me and my guest that Kroeger wants to extend the group of people that hate them from just real metal fans, to the families that use Nu-metal as a family event. Being on the general admission floor, I was in close proximity to a lot of people, and the general consensus of everyone around was that **Knocked Loose** sucks, and they clearly ruined their own show.
