Review and photo’s by Rene Botello
I’m partial to Butcher Babies. They are one of my favorite bands to see live, and when I saw they were hitting my town, I immediately bought tickets and was ready for the show for about 2 months. It was a long wait, but wholeheartedly worth it. As before, I bought the pre party VIP experience. Each time I have done this from prior tours, they have always gone above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great time. I can honestly say that out of all the VIP’s I have bought throughout the years, they are the best. They take the time to hang out and talk with everyone and take more than just the usual one pick, shake a hand and get booted out. Any chance I get, I will always do a VIP experience with them.
On May 30, 2018 they played at one of my favorite local venues as well, House of Rock. I love it because the closeness that you can have with the band, making it a memorable time. First song up was off their new stellar album LILITH Korova. Everyone in attendance lost their freaking minds, myself included! Half their set included songs off this new album, including the songs: Lilith, The Huntsman, Look What We’ve Done, along with classic songs of Monster’s Ball, and Magnolia Blvd to name a few.
Butcher Babies live are a whirlwind of chaos and energy! They have continued to push themselves with each new album and gaining new fans and solidifying old ones. They have become role models of what hard work and steel minded determination can accomplish. Now, if I could only figure how to just follow them on tour to each show, I would be set!
