enough to make me want to go again. The venue was just small enough to amplify the acoustics,
and then big enough for the headbangers to crowd up front and do there thing. Did I mention the
bar with the best view of the stage? Yeah. Perk. I had the pleasure of standing right next to one
of the gigantic speakers, so you can’t tell me that I didn’t hear the band correctly. The aesthetics
of the Stanhope House in general were on point—the stage had zebra print rug, it had a low
decorative ceiling, and the guys all dressed to fit the sound and the venue. If you can’t tailor your
style to the venue, then you’re the one that looks out of place. Sister Salvation looked right at
home on the stage—they owned it.
The Set
The amount of raw energy
Sister Salvation put into
their set blew me away
instantly. It was like they
injected adrenaline into my
veins via hard rock. Sister
Salvation didn’t even try to
ease into their set—they
just jumped headfirst into
it which honestly was the
right move. The set flowed
flawlessly from one song to the next with a few small breaks in between where the band proved
themselves true entertainers as they interacted with the audience. Their sound was so tight that I
was completely immersed in the music throughout the whole set—not once did my ADD turn
my attention away. Sister Salvation had great stage presence that held the entire audience
captive. There was even this adorable little rocker in the front that was headbanging along to
their songs! Here are some clips that I took for just a taste of what Sister Salvation can do.
