Multi Grammy nominated rock band Nothing More is in the midst of their North American spring of 2022 tour co-headlined with Asking Alexandria and supported by Atreyu and Eva Under Fire. Tour has almost reached the summit and on May 27th came to New Jersey where we were able to catch up with them.

Texas band Nothing More is currently working on their new album scheduled to be release sometime later this year. They already have released their first single called Turn It Up Like.
More information about can be found in previous publication here.
Unfortunately, British band Asking Alexandria was forced to cancel nights performance due to lead singer Danny Worsnop getting cold and being advised by the doctors to give his vocal cords a rest. A lot of fans were upset including myself, but sometimes we tend to forget that artists are just a regular people like us and can get sick. We wish Danny speedy recovery!
However, for your viewing pleasure here are the pictures of Asking Alexandria and Danny from a show in New Jersey a few years back – see gallery here.
Well, the show must go on. Eva Under Fire and Atreyu did some extended sets. Nothing More’s Jonny Hawkins did a shout out to Danny, wishing him well, as he had some health troubles on this tour himself too.
Of course, waiting for the band to perform is not easy, but watching the Nothing More’s set to be completed is a show on its own. For like five years, band has been employing a monster during their live shows. They call it The Scorpion Tail. Its concoction created from scrap metal, spare automotive and motorcycle parts by bands bassist Daniel Oliver, and personally I think that it perfectly personifies bands vocalist Jonny Hawkins eccentric on stage persona. I can’t imagine Nothing More and Jonny without it. Setting everything up takes some time, but it’s totally worth it and just adds to an excitement to see the bands hit the stage and use it.

Nothing More came out with a bang – literally. Nice and calm suddenly became bat shit crazy. Their new banger Turn It Up Like blew the roof of The Wellmont Theatre in Montclair. Energy the band brought into the nights show was totally immense. Jonny who looks and acts like a twin brother of Jim Morrison from The Doors and Zack de la Rocha from Rage Against The Machine provided all the theatrics and acrobatics you came to expect and take for granted.
Their set included Let’em Burn, Do You Really Want It?, Tired Of Winning and other hits. The energy flowed through the set and fed the fans with all the positive emotions such a performance can give. The tour will continue until June 19th through United States in the cities listed below. It is a must see show!
