Fire and Ice Tour
The Madison Theater – Covington, KY
3/9/2012

Concert time again!!! In light of my recent dive into the hardcore/metalcore genre, a few friends of mine took a liking to a band called Woe, is Me. We had been looking for an opportunity to catch them live, and were able to do that this past weekend as part of the Fire and Ice tour headlined by We Came as Romans.

I have to admit when I first saw this tour, I was a bit surprised that WCAR had the fan support to merit a headlining tour. I actually enjoyed both of their albums, but just didn’t necessarily feel like they stood out among other players that are active in the genre right now, and so the headlining slot surprised me a bit. So, I intended on going to this show to see Woe, is Me, and be a casual observer of WCAR to see what all the fuss was about. Once again, the free market proved me wrong – the WCAR show was really excellent, and once again showed me why going to see unknown bands is a great idea. You never know when a band like this will come out of nowhere and blow you away.
