Rise Against soitti keikan osana Save Our Stages Festivalia: kuudesta biisistä koostunut keikka katsottavissa kokonaisuudessaan
Yhdysvaltalainen punk rock -yhtye Rise Against esiintyi hiljattain osana National Independent Venue Associationin eli NIVA:n järjestämää Save Our Stages Festivalia soittaen keikan kotikaupungissaan Chicagossa sijaitsevassa The Metrossa.
Tapahtumalla yritetään tukea tapahtuma-alaa, joka on kärsinyt paljon koronaviruksesta. Yhtyeen setti koostui kuudesta kappaleesta. Laulaja Tim McIllrath kertoi keikasta ja keikkapaikan merkityksestä yhtyeelle seuraavaa:
”It’s really special to me because it’s one of the places that lives in a larger than life kind of mythologized world and I always knew it was the greatest venue but when we started touring and going around the world that’s when I realized that people even outside of Chicago felt like the Metro was the greatest venue. It wasn’t just my attachment to it.
Venues like this I can’t tell you playing at the Metro is such an emotional experience being here on this stage playing music that it feels a little bit like a dream state.
We are all so excited to be here not just to play this venue and to be with each other but to be with you and kind of remind people how important a place like the Metro is. We could throw the word irreplaceable around but here it means something. It really really means something. This place is irreplaceable. There will never be another Metro.”
