Next, the band moved into “Real Thing,” “Endless” and “I Care.” Throughout the whole show, the screen graphics were really simple, but heartwarming. There were two camerapeople walking through the audience to get people on screen moshing, hugging, singing along, thrashing and even showing off their Turnstile tattoos.  

When the screens were not showing the audience, a compilation of Turnstile fans (of every age) at past concerts played. The clips show attendees explaining why they love the hardcore scene, what they enjoy about Turnstile’s music and their experiences at a show. These videos were not heavily edited, because it did not have to be. This concert was not just about Turnstile, it was about the fans that create a community.  

I really enjoyed watching this love letter to the hardcore scene. It was the group’s way of thanking the fanbase for making the shows what they are, especially being in their 16th year of Turnstile.  

The show closed out with “SOLE,” “MAGIC MAN,” and “LOOK OUT FOR ME,” all off the touring album. The encore included “HOLIDAY,” “BLACKOUT,” NEVER ENOUGH,” and “T.L.C (TURNSTILE LOVE CONNECTION).” 

This show really was great. The crowd was absolutely hype the entire time and the band kept the energy up even with calm video breaks inbetween songs. My parter left wanting to listen to more Turnstile, saying it was an amazing show. I am so glad I took the chance to see them live. This is one band I would definitely pay to see again.  

I highly recommend listening to Turnstile if you have not. If you’re new to their music, you should start with “Fazed Out,” “Real Thing,” “DON’T PLAY,” “BLACKOUT,” “HOLIDAY” and “SOLE,” just to name a few of my favorites.
