Travelling
thousands of miles from California, Plymouth’s leg of Of Mice and Men’s UK tour was far from a sell out. However, this
being said, the atmosphere was a lot more friendlier rather than if it was sold out.
Having
never toured outside of Japan until now, Cross
Faith where amazing and proved us wrong when we say that Asians can’t rock
as well as everyone else. After covering Prodigy’s
“Omen”,
Cross Faith gained so much more
respect for being a Japanese band and left the stage on a pretty good high. 
With One Last Breath from York, you would expect them
to be as good as the entire line up for the tour. Even though they put on a
good set and got the majority of the crowd to mosh, With One Last Breath could have upped their game tonight on this
tour as they didn’t matched up well with the other bands on the line up,
especially the headliners.
Bury Tomorrow was the most pleasing
support band tonight as the crowd responded to them incredibly well by their
music and joking around. They encouraged a lot of mosh pits to form and left
the crowd wanting more. 
Of Mice and Men walked on stage to the half
filled venue but that didn’t matter to them. This Californian band performed
track after track with immense power; even with the disappointing turn out, Of Mice and Men still rocked White Rabbit down to the ground. Walls
of death and mosh pits all left fans bruised and aching but they were all so
happy to see a band that would never come to Plymouth again. Of Mice and Men
admitted that Plymouth was the best show on the tour so far because of the high
energy and reaction they received.
The
feedback from the crowd after the gig was greatly positive and there wasn’t a
single bad word to say about Of Mice and
Men and their support. Everyone went home on an elevated cloud.
