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.

All bands that performed did amazing! Confessions Of A Traitor stole the show with their energy

It was so fun! It was my moms first metal concert and she loved it! Lots of nice people!

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.

Excellent crowd engagement and all the bands were lovely people! Can’t wait for the next tour

Bands were amazing!!!! Decent sound system. Cheap eats. Soooooo hooooooottttt , no AC in the venue. 🥵🥵🥵

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!!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. All bands poured their hearts out and put on a killer show. Convictions never disappoints

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!

Great venue, great band. After all they endured trying to get to the venue with van issues, etc. they performed brilliantly.

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!

Love these guys! Really humble genuine real guys! Their music is honest and raw! One of my favorites!

Convictions did a great job, have a blessed travel and keep up the hard work!!! God bless #aggresiveworship

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

Amazing. Personal, authentic, great sound, sweet dudes. Would love to see them again in the future.
