The band only played two songs from the new album which was disappointing, the title track “Death By Rock And Roll” and “Only Love Can Save Me Now.” I really hoped to see her perform “25”, “And So It Went”, and maybe even “Witches Burn” but that just leaves them for next time.

She did the rest of her performance in a black full slip with the boots as she had done on previous nights. As with Diamante, the jacket was shed after a song, but she had a sheer black coat on underneath that also lasted for just one song. Taylor came out dressed exactly as how she had been dressing on the tour, a black leather jacket and black boots with platform soles. Death By Rock And Roll was released Februand went to #1 on UK Rock & Metal Albums and #3 here at home on US Top Rock Albums ( Billboard). Prior to 2020, I hadn’t been introduced to The Pretty Reckless so I know relatively nothing about the band. As editor of All Music Magazine, I have listened to all the singles released in 20 from the album Death By Rock And Roll, and published the press releases as they were released. I have to admit that the album Death By Rock And Roll was one of my favorites in the past five years and adding to that fact that Taylor Momsen played Cindy Lou Who in the film How the Grinch Stole Christmas in the year 2000, I just had to see her perform live. The Pretty Reckless started their set at 7:50pm. Diamante has been touring with Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Chevelle, and now Shinedown.Īt just 25 years old, this lady is just getting started! Check out her latest album, American Dream. She released her debut album, Coming In Hot, in 2018, along with her #1 song, “Hear Me Know” which she provided guest vocals on that Bad Wolves song.
She made multiple visits out the stage to the end putting one foot on the riser as she sang to the crowd. Diamante was fierce in her prowess on stage as she belted out each song in her set. The jacket lasted just a bit after the first song and her sex appeal was in full display with a flesh tone top that had black cups giving the appearance of her wearing just a black bra and leggings. She came out in a full-length black leather coat with white crosses and sequined leggings. Diamante was first on the runway at around 7:00pm as the audience found their seats.ĭiamante, or Diamante Azzura Bovelli, has a dynamic voice and stage presence. We had a photo pit that extended around both sides and the end of the stage a lot of room to cover. I don’t believe I have seen this configuration before. The stage was turned so it jetted out into the crowd in a runway fashion with visual access to three sides of the stage. I estimated there were 15,000 fans in attendance even with the weather report a bit sketchy. The Bon Secours Wellness Arena was almost filled to capacity. I was even asked to join the photographers group shot before the show! This is a tradition of concert and event photographers to document who was present at a particular show. From the arena’s personnel to the other photographers covering the concert that night, I truly felt welcomed in a foreign environment. Somehow, that inclement weather did not interfere with the show and Greenville was spared.
The Carolinas are beautiful this time of year, but the day of the show there had been scattered showers and tornado warnings in the area. So, I was off to Greenville to cover the two most intriguing bands of 2021. I have family that lives 500 yards from that venue. Much to my dismay, there were no Florida dates on the tour? No worries, the closest date was at Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina. To top it off, Shinedown is out in support of their upcoming 2022 release, Planet Zero. When I saw that they were going out on tour with Shinedown, Billboard‘s #1 Greatest of All Time Mainstreams Rock Artist, I thought that is a show that couldn’t be missed. Both are just powerhouse albums released in 2021. I have been waiting a year to see Diamante and The Pretty Reckless after promoting their album releases last year on All Music Magazine Diamante’s Album American Dream and The Pretty Reckless’s release, Death By Rock And Roll.
