Acacia Strain was absolutely bad ass!
by randomchibi13 on 11/3/10Altar Bar - PittsburghRating: 4 out of 5We were late coming to the show because parking down in the Strip District was slightly difficult, but we were able to see Gaza, the Red Chord, The Terror and the Acacia Strain. Whoever was in charge of the sound system was right one, nothing over powered anything. Each band had a ton of energy up on the stage, played to the crowd and incorporated the crowd (and sometimes the city and sports teams) into the songs and conversations. The energy kept building all the way up to the Terror when the crowd went crazy with stage divers, circle pits and random mosh pits. By the time the Acacia Strain came on, people were continuously launching themselves from the stage, diving onto people and covering the entire 1st floor with a massive circle pit. I left with a few bruises and my ears ringing, but it was totally worth it.
