Papa Roach I&#8217;ve never been a big fan of, but I must say they put on a great show.\u00a0 Singer Jacoby Shaddox even went into the audience at one point, which was awesome.\u00a0 I give it to them, they were very good. Buckcherry were next.\u00a0 Been a fan since their first album in 1998.\u00a0 They were in the midst of a comeback at this point and they were rocking big time.\u00a0 Great stuff. Then Motley closed with a great set of classics and a couple of new songs from their great latest album at the time, Saints Of Los Angeles. Really good show all around.
