Avatar rocks Royal Oak!

I've loved Avatar since the first time I saw them in the winter of 2018. Great band, awesome songs, killer stage show. They really "get it" as far as the live performance in concerned. Theatrical, somewhat comedic, interesting visually and from an audio aspect, too.

Playing songs that spanned their career, through their latest single "The Dirt I'm Buried In", they didn't disappoint for a Tuesday night rock show.

Great to see everyone last night, as Avatar played the Royal Oak Music Theater...until next time!
