Taste of Chaos was a test of tolerance
Large multi-bill concerts, such as The Rockstar Taste of Chaos Tour at Arco Arena on Feb. 23, require due patience and a strong will. The patience is not for braving mosh-pits or long concession lines. No, the patience and will are required for sitting through acts of no-name bands that are often met with little more than a yawn and head nod.
The lead singer of Aiden, Wil Francis, probably put it best: Usually during these type of shows you have to sit through a bunch of bands you don't care about to get to the ones you do.
Being a big fan of The Used and Senses Fail, I was excited to see them live for the first time. Co-headliner 30 Seconds to Mars dropped out of the show because of an unspecified illness to lead singer Jared Leto, so that only meant more time for the bands I came to see.
