Co-Headliners Korn, who are expected to release their twelfth studio album in 2015. Jonathan Davis takes the stage with his very unique vocal range and style, With his guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch, bassist Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu, and drummer Ray Luzier, Korn makes up a historical team and they add a unique flare to the metal genre with their beatboxing and thunderous grooves opened their 11-song set with “Twist”, a brief (49-second) track that features frontman Jonathan Davis’ signature scat vocal style over the only understandable lyric being the word “Twist” The band's set was balanced, combining '90s hits like "Freak on a Leash" and "Got the Life" with newer singles such as "Coming Undone.” As the stage got dark and quiet, you could see Jonathan Davis bringing out a little surprise for the crowd, as the band played “Shoots and Ladders”, he came out with his the bagpipes. Talk about igniting the crowd, especially when it slid into a nice tidbit of “One” from Metallica’s album. As “Freak On A Leash”’s beats filled the venue, the crowd started to get into the music, with the grooving of the funky bass and crisp beat of the drums and the unique vocals flowing from JD. With its gigantic-sounding opening riff and raw vocals, setlist closer “Blind”, the lead single from their 1994 self-titled debut album, rounded out a memorable performance as Davis exclaimed “20 years ago this was the song that started this motherfucker”. As they ended the song, all the members went to the edge of the stage to throw out guitar picks and drum-sticks. The crowd was jumping and running on top of one another hoping to catch one of these to take home. Korn's antics may be strange, but it works and creates great music and a great performance! Korn then received a very much deserved thunderous round of cheers and applause as they exited the stage completing yet another mind blowing set.
