PAPA ROACH & POP EVIL Live in Youngstown, Ohio With Photos! By Geoff Ketler, Cleveland Contributor Sunday, October 27, 2013 @ 1:58 PM
POP EVIL took the stage to "Deal with the Devil", off of their latest release, Onyx.
This was my first live experience with POP EVIL and they would go on to impress. The setlist focused on their
latest release Onyx, but the highlight of the set was hearing "Boss’s Daughter", off of their
2011 release, War of Angels. It’s just such a great song that they co-wrote with Mick Mars, very
crunchy and up-tempo. POP EVIL was really tight and very animated on stage. I have to give kudos to drummer
Chachi Riot (AKA Josh Marunde) for being one of the most animated drummers I have ever seen. It wasn’t just the
stick spins and tosses, but the facial expressions and demeanor that really got my attention.
POP EVIL wrapped up their set with "Trenches". Their hit "Trenches" has been
inescapable. Whether it is radio airplay, spinning on KNAC.COM, or during Monday Night Football,
"Trenches" had been reaching audiences everywhere. Vocalist Leigh Kakaty made his way to a bar in
the center of the floor and stood up on it to get everyone’s attention in the back as he belted the chorus line. It was a
great show all around.

Setlist:
During "Hollywood Whore" Jacoby was lying on the bar when one of the bartenders brought him a shot. He
responded by saying; "My name is Jacoby Shaddix and I am an alcoholic." He went on to explain to the audience how
he is just about two years sober now which drew cheers. I think it is also worth mentioning that Jacoby wore a black vest
on stage with a giant white cross on the back. There is no doubt that some aspect of spiritualism has played a role in
his recovery over the past couple of years.
After the blazing set from PAPA ROACH, Jacoby Shaddix and drummer Tony Palermo mingled with fans in
the parking lot; taking pictures and signing autographs. I always like seeing this. Way too often a band will blow off
their hard core fans once they make it big. This is not the case with PAPA ROACH and I have even more respect for
them because of this. The tour wraps towards the end of this month and PAPA ROACH will be spending the majority of
the rest of the year in Europe.
