The Dead Daisies rolled into Mickey’s Black Box in Lititz, PA on June 9th and absolutely crushed it. This hard rock juggernaut is currently on their “Light ‘Em Up” world tour in support of their latest album, and they made sure to light up this small venue with a blistering set.
From the moment they hit the stage, it was clear these seasoned vets were here to throw down. Drummer Tommy Clufetos and bassist Michael Devin locked in tight, providing the thunderous foundation for guitarists Doug Aldrich and David Lowy to shred over. And at the center of it all was frontman John Corabi, whose powerful vocals and commanding stage presence were on full display all night.
The setlist was stacked with new bangers like the title track “Light ‘Em Up” alongside classic cuts that had the crowd fist-pumping in unison. Highlights included a blistering rendition of “Long Way to Go” and their closing cover of “Helter Skelter” that got everyone singing along. These guys don’t mess around when it comes to delivering straight-up, no-frills rock ‘n’ roll.
All in all, The Dead Daisies brought their A-game and left this small Pennsylvania venue smoldering in their wake. If you get a chance to catch them on this tour, do not sleep on these hard rock heroes.
