As fans waited for The Aces to perform, Modern Moxie took the stage, where they played and rocked out to songs from their album “Claw Your Way Out” and their recent EP “Gutter Honey.” After their set, the members of the band gathered at the merch table where fans could not only meet the friendly members that make up Modern Moxie, but also purchase copies of “Gutter Honey,” and could get t-shirts, stickers and pickles.
The members of The Aces appeared on stage as they performed their songs such as “Daydream,” “Always Get This Way” and “Girls Make Me Wanna Die.” As the members of the band danced on stage to their songs, the audience began to dance along with them. At one point of the show, lead singer of the band, Cristal Ramirez, shared with the audience on how they came from Utah and since starting their careers and while on their journeys of self-discovery, never imagined playing venues in cities such as Charlotte.
To an ordinary person, one might see this concert as another performance at one of the venues in Charlotte, but to The Aces and to their fans, it was a performance that gave them hope and created such an energetic and accepting environment. Check out the photos below, by Bethany Ivan.
