I have to admit I didn't know many of the bands in the line up for Havoc fest. I knew and had seen Myth City before from when they supported FVK on the Unbreakable Hearts tour. I had also heard of Zoax but had never seen them because the date I saw FVK on the UH tour had Myth City and Annisokay as support, whereas Zoax were support on other dates on that tour.
The rest of the line up I had no clue about.
When me and my friend arrived at the venue, I felt instantly welcomed by the other fans, which is something I really love about the Lost Hearts. Everyone seems to know each other and is so kind and looks out for one and another.
When we were let in the venue, we headed straight to the stage as the first band would be starting soon. We were one row from the front of the stage and managed to stay there the entire day which was really good.
First up was Ashes, who like I said I had never heard of but their set was great and I really enjoyed their performance and it was a perfect way to start the day.
Next up was Myth City who I had already seen on the Unbreakable Hearts tour in May so I already knew they were a good band and I knew a load of their songs already. My favourites being 'The Vendetta' and 'Man Down' which they performed (yayy :D). Overall Myth City were amazing as always and they had a really entertaining set.
Now I will admit I don't quite remember the order of the bands set from here but I do remember Villians set being very entertaining, as was Forever Never. They are both very talented bands.
Now I do remember one band had technical difficulties with the lead singers gutair (I think this was Hindslotts). I must admit they weren't really my type but I do repsect them for continuing even though they had obvious difficulties.
Now I do remember alot about the Allusondrugs set. Again they weren't really my type but I remember watching the set feeling shocked over how off his head the lead singer Kurt Kobain wannabe was. He seemed to stagger about cluelessly until he actually smacked his head on the microphone and bumped into the other band members on more than one occassion.
But overall, quite an enteraining set.
Now I do remember loads about Zoax's set. I was blown away by how amazing they are having never seen them live before. The singer got down from the stage and had the whole crowd jumping and covered us all in Talcum powder which sounds odd but at the time was amazing. It was clear everyone in the crowd was having a good time. The singer actually began the set in an all black outfit but left head to toe in white from all the Talcum powder and was also slighty sparkly, someone had a pot of glitter in the crowd.
Other than FVK, I would of said Zoax's performance was my favourite of the day.
I also just looked up at the line-up and I forgot to mention earlier, it was announced that Glamour Of The Kill had unfortunalty parted ways and were no longer playing as part of the Havoc line up.
When FVK took the stage, everyone was instantly blown away by the amazing band that they are. Starting off with 'Neon In The Dance Halls' everyone was jumping and going crazy which is something I really love about FVK shows.
I love the way FVK connect with their fans while performing.
FVK also performed new soon to be released singles 'Braindead' and 'Danger' which I had never seen live before and they were both amazing. They also sang some of my favourites 'In Wondrous Rage','Could We Burn Darling' and 'All Hallows Evil' and as always their performance was perfect.
Once again, I almost cried during 'City Falls To Dust', that song just hits me right in the feels.... 'You'll be here in my blood, till the day I die' :")
And it especially gets me when the whole crowd is singing with Laurence, 'Got me waiting, no don't keep me waiting' and I just stand there wallowing in mushy feels about how lovely it all is.
FVK ended a once again brilliant set with a cover of 'I need a hero' which made a perfect ending to a perfect show.
After the show, as always FVK came out to meet all the fans and for once I managed to meet them all in one night and everyone was super lovely.
So overall, Havoc Festival was a huge success and I really enjoyed the day. I can't wait until next time!
