Falling In Reverse @ Warped Tour 2011

After being kicked out his first band and sent to jail for 3 years Ronnie Radke is back with a new outlook on life and back in the music scene with a new band Falling In Reverse. After getting released from jail in December, Radke got straight to work on recording his first album by the end of April 2011. Just in time for the band to jump on the end of Warped Tour.

While Asking Alexandrea was finishing off the night back at the main stage, Falling in Reverse were on the opposite side the Hillsboro Fair Grounds finishing off the night at the Advent stage. The atmosphere was intense. It had to have been maybe the 5th time the band had preformed in front of the crowd as a new band. Since the Advent stage is a lot longer then the other stages Radke paced back and forth along the front of the stage for first song before jumping down into the pit and soon enough into the crowd. But the space between the stage and crowd was not close enough. Lifting himself up over the barricade on top of the audience Radke began to walk on the hands of all the enthusiastic fans to about 10 feet to the middle of the crowd. Then finishing the rest of the song before walking back to the stage over the crowd. It was quiet a sight seeing a man walk over the top of so many people. Even though their album had just been out for a few short weeks many of the fans were still able to sing back most of the words. If you were a fan of the early Escape the Fate and not a fan of the later Escape the Fate then Falling in Reverse is a band to check out. Expect similar music to what Radke was producing with Escape the Fate in their early years that was heavily influenced by Ronnie Radke.
