Evanescence live at the Mohegan Sun Arena May 19, 2019.
Evanescence took to the Mohegan Sun Arena stage with their brand of Hard rock/gothic metal. They wasted no time rocking out playing through favorites” Imperfection”, What you want “and “Going under” to start with. All the songs fell right into each other. Amy was on the piano. Her vocals were incredible, as she belted them out,it sent shivers down my spine! Amy’s vocal range was insane! She graced the stage with the band as they played “Sick”. During the show there was a lot of strobe lights for effect with a lot of blue and red lights. The band was really heavy,the drummer played fiercely, the guitarists where loud and crunching. The bass clicked right in with the drums. Amy was top notch! I can’t say enough how great the musicianship is in this band The audience cheered during fan favorite “You never call me when you’re sober”Amy sat behind the piano and told the crowd that Mohegan Sun was like a second home to them! Next the band went into “Bring me back to life.” Amy is really on with her vocals with this song! The crowd was roaring as the drummer was viciously playing closing out this song. During the encore Amy asked the crowd to sing to her (My Immortal). Everyone held up their cell phones in the air making it look like a vigil. Amy thanked the audience and the band went into a medley of some of their songs. The band said they will see us soon and then threw Some drum heads and sticks to the crowd……. Hope to see them again soon!
