BEST UNEXPECTED DISPLAY OF THEATRICS: HALESTORM
Big fests like Rock on the Range offer the ideal opportunity to boast a beefed-up live show — a notion that Halestorm made good on in surprising fashion. Before singer-guitarist Lzzy Hale’s body appeared, her voice — a gothy mixture of Joan Jett and Whitney Houston — filled the Kicker Stage with American Idol-style vocal acrobatics to start "It’s Not You." Once she and her band appeared, the spectacle got enormous: the drummer played one portion with oversized sticks that could have doubled as police batons, Hale lifted a glass of wine in memory of Dio (drinking it dramatically at the turning point of a song), and the entire four-piece performed an instrumental using modified trash cans as drums. If any band deserves a bigger stage (and an even bigger production) for an outing at ROTR next year, it’s these alt-rockers.

    ROTR...what an AMAZING weekend! Although we've seen you twice already this year, we made it over to your show on Saturday and got "pushed" up to front left. Halestorm is the most gracious and approachable band I have met. You truly look like you love what you do and have fun on stage. For those reasons and the amazing music you create, you have risen to be one of my favorite bands. Your show at ROTR, in the raging heat, sealed the deal for me. Thank you for the pictures and the auto's. I'm ready for show #4!!!
