On September 11th, 2024, the Aztec Theatre in San Antonio was buzzing with excitement as fans gathered for a night packed with energy and nostalgia. The popular alt-rock band, Alkaline Trio, brought their much-anticipated Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs Tour to the stage, and they certainly didn’t disappoint. With two amazing opening acts, Slomosa from Norway and Spanish Love Songs from Los Angeles, the audience was treated to an unforgettable experience.
As fans began to fill out the venue, the excitement was palpable for Slomosa, who were making a splash in the American music scene with their largest US show to date. Hailing from Bergen, Norway, this tundra rock band set the night in motion with a performance that had everyone headbanging—yes, even the drummer was getting in on the action! Their synchronized movements and energetic tunes created a hearty atmosphere that resonated well with the San Antonio crowd. It’s safe to say that Slomosa left a mark on the audience, turning a simple opening act into an engaging spectacle.
Next on stage, Spanish Love Songs took the spotlight with a set that was nothing short of amazing. Tagging along with a new bassist, they played a string of their top tracks, including crowd favorites like Lifers and Losers. They even dedicated songs to friends “that can’t pay rent,” adding a personal touch to their performance. It was evident that opening for Alkaline Trio was a dream come true for them, with lead vocalist reiterating their excitement: “opening for A.T. […] is a dream come true.” The camaraderie shared on stage permeated through the audience, amplifying the spirit of unity that music brings.
When the time finally came for Alkaline Trio to take the stage, the anticipation reached a fever pitch. The unveiling of their banner sent the audience into a frenzy of cheers and chants. As the trio, dressed in matching black suits, began their high-energy set, fans sang along to their well-loved hits. The excitement peaked during the performance of Mr. Chainsaw, a classic from 2001 that had everyone shouting the lyrics with pure enthusiasm.
The remarkable evening wasn’t just about the music; there was also a heartwarming spirit among the attendees. Fans exchanged handmade friendship bracelets, a beautiful touch that encapsulated the mood of the night. Alkaline Trio delivered a powerful performance that felt personal and engaging, making every moment special and memorable. It was a true spectacle that left everyone talking long after the echoes of the last song faded.
