Magnolia Park brought their Nights After VAMP Tour to Omaha, NE on April 7th, selling out The Waiting Room Lounge. Only four shows into the run, the Orlando-based quintet already had the place packed wall to wall. People showed up early and they brought the energy with them.

For those unfamiliar, Magnolia Park uniquely blends pop-punk, nu-metal, hip-hop, and metalcore into something that doesn’t sound quite like anything else out there.

Pinknoise kicked the night off. Their catalog is still small, but what they have hits. If you’ve caught their track “Rain” with Wind Walkers on SiriusXM’s Octane, you already know vocalist Kasey Foxx can do it all; screams, melodies, and everything in between. A solid opening set that set the tone for the night.

Silly Goose was next and they were ready to make an impression. I had been looking forward to seeing this band for a while. I’m loving their rock-rap style but I was not prepared for their live show. It was nonstop, in-your-face energy from the moment they took the stage. Frontman Jackson Foster was the ringleader, pacing the stage, working the crowd, encouraging crowd surfing, and surfing the crowd himself more than once. At one point Jackson asked how many people in the room had heard of them before tonight. A few hollered. Then he asked how many were just now finding out about them and the place erupted. Regardless of the fact that most had no idea who they were, Silly Goose had everyone completely locked in. They owned that crowd from start to finish.

Then it was time for Magnolia Park. The front rail was loaded with fans who had done the VIP experience earlier in the evening. For many of them, this was their first time seeing the band live and you could feel the anticipation in the room. Magnolia Park ripped through a heavy run of songs including “Animal,” “SHADOW TALK,” “HIGH,” “CULT,” “CHASING SHADOWS,” “WORSHIP,” “DANGEROUS,” and “ASK FOR IT” before bringing Kasey Foxx back out to perform their recent collab “CRAVE.” They closed the main set with their biggest song to date, “SHALLOW,” shouting out to all the women and queens in the house.

After a brief exit, they came back out and had two more left in the tank. First up was a Disney cover “I2I,” from the 1995 A Goofy Movie soundtrack and the reaction was something else. Watching a sold-out rock crowd lose their minds to a thirty-year-old Disney song says a lot about who was in the audience. Magnolia Park wrapped the night with “Misfits,” and that was that.

The Nights After VAMP Tour still has a long way to go, with dates continuing through May and festival runs in Europe lined up after that. If this Omaha show is any indication of what the rest of the run looks like, every city on that list is in for a great night.
