Convictions

Amazing live brought such raw energy and excitement to the stage. After they were done playing Michael was at the merch booth talking to his fans taking photos signing autographs. If you like a band that has electrifying energy and plays so raw and you can tell they have a passion for what they do I would say don't miss out on this band.

First time seeing Mike and the boys from Convictions and it was well worth it. High energy and sharing the Gospel through aggressive worship is amazing. The whole lineup was awesome and Beer City is a great venue. I prefer smaller venues for the intimacy and closeness to the bands. Will definitely be looking for more shows at this location.

Amazing 🙏🏼 come back to MN soon and bring your bff's War of Ages. So glad I could see you guys!

Convictions set was awesome! They are such an amazing band and played great songs(though there were more I was hoping for.) But they had 3 openers when they should only had heal the hurt. They said they were done because of only having so much time, so why have three openers and a short set when you could have one opener and the headliner play a decent length set??? They weren’t even up there that long.

Convictions put on an amazing show! My respect level for the band has gone way up. I will absolutely go see them again!

This show was INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!! Every band that played last night was worth the 5 1/2 hr drive. Thank you! Let’s do this again 🤘🏾🤙🏾

Had a blast. Definitely a fan of some.new bands after that show. Finally got to see convictions been a fan for a few years now.

Amazing show, both convictions and confessions of a traitor had so much energy and interaction with the fans. I loved it, the guys were so nice too.

the show was awesome! convictions and confessions of a traitor were awesome. the energy was great! i love how convictions told everyone it's okay to have struggles in life and so much more encouraging things. i would definitely go see them again.

Definitely worth the METRA ride out of the city and 2 mile hike to the venue. Interesting mix of metal and heavier hardcore. Got to mix it up w the local Chicago acts and talk w Convictions members for a bit. Got my New Testament signed by Michael and pulled my glute spinkicking my demons in the pit. Venue had reasonably priced food and drink. FYI Last train to the city is at 10:45 pm so I ubered back downtown. A little out of the way but wouldn’t have missed this for the world. Glad I attended and got some fire merch and fire footage. Crucify me upside down !!

I really enjoyed this show and i love how it wasn’t too crowded and i really love that convictions played hurricane and supernova🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍🤎💕💞💓💗💖💘💝❣️

One of the best metal concerts I've been to. Convictions is every ounce as good in person as they are recorded. Loved it.

No words that I’ll type here will even begin to explain how incredible this show was! Confessions of a Traitor put on an incredible performance. They’re super talented musicians and they know how to get the crowd feeling seen and energized. Stephen engages with the crowd like no frontman I’ve ever seen before! Then, Convictions… man, what a band. I spoke with Michael briefly at the venue and then more over Instagram. Solid band, solid foundation, strong faith and a strong message. I can’t believe how powerful this band is. Convictions are keeping Christian Hardcore music alive and WELL! Don’t miss out on seeing either of these bands live.

Love these guys! This picture sums it up for me. Not only do they slam hard, but they live out their words in action. To stop and pray, in the middle of a bar, in front of us rowdy crowd, is lived faith. Always a great time!!

Wolves at the gate and don't even get me started on convictions were both insane!!!! It was disappointing when someone pulled the fire alarm and convictions time got cut but ty wolves at the gate for letting them play 1 more song and having Michael onstage to sing 1 song with u guys! Earth groans I've never heard before but they were pretty sick I'm definitely gonna check em put along with discrepancies!

They never fail to bring their fullest! Love seeing these guys, they are at their best! So realistic as well. Soon as the show is over, Mike is manning the merch stand, and is very accommodating and approachable. Thank you for an amazing show!

Awesome show!!! Can't say it loud enough!! These guys slam, and keep everyone engaged and having a great time. I look forward to seeing them again.

Best concert I’ve ever been to! Got to talk to Mike and Jeremy after. Had some good convos about what God is doing in this scene!

Is there any way I can rate it more than five stars? There is no doubt in my mind that any time these guys are in town their set will go off! Check out my shots coming soon cmmusicphotography.com

Once again, convictions put on a mind-blowing, energetic performance. This was also a great pairing with War of Ages, Earth Groans and opening bands! For the first time in a while, I didn't feel like any band didn't belong. Great lineup overall
