Tonight’s sold-out crowd gathered in front of The Sylvee this Halloween night as All Time Low brought their explosive “Everyone’s Talking!” tour to town. With support from Mayday Parade, The Cab, and The Paradox, the mood was electric from the moment the fans started lining up. The air outside buzzed with anticipation – fans in costumes, glitter, and pop-punk nostalgia waiting to scream every lyric. Inside, the lights drop, the noise rises, and the night ignites with the kind of energy that reminds you why concerts feel like church for the loud and restless.
The Paradox opened the show, a fresh-faced band that’s clearly ready to prove itself. Their sound is raw yet infectious – tight drumming, melodic guitars, and vocals that cut through the noise with the urgency of a siren. It’s clear that this is a young group hungry to leave their mark, and judging by the number of heads already nodding and phones rising for videos, they are succeeding.

When the final chorus of “Do Me Like That” hits, the entire room is clapping along in rhythm.
Then the lights shifted to red, and The Cab took the stage. Frontman Alexander DeLeon strides out dressed up as Harley Quinn, all charisma and swagger. The band slides effortlessly into their set – a glossy mix of slick pop melodies and punchy guitar lines. It’s pure nostalgia for those who grew up in the late-2000s scene, but the sound feels refreshed, alive.

Tracks like “Temporary Bliss” and “Angel With A Shotgun” get the crowd screaming, bodies swaying, and phones lighting the air.
Up next was Mayday Parade, who came running onto the stage dressed as the Scooby Doo gang. The collective emotional dam breaks as they chase ghosts off the stage. From the first shimmering notes of “Jersey,” the crowd turns into a massive choir. Every lyric is screamed like a confession. Derek Sanders, barefoot as ever, paces the stage like a preacher at the altar of emo heartbreak, leading his congregation through anthem after anthem.

During “Jamie All Over,” a thousand voices turn the venue into an ocean of shared emotion – tears, smiles, and arms raised in perfect time.
By the time All Time Low hit the stage, the room was trembling. The lights plunged into darkness, and the iconic countdown intro triggers an explosion of sound and light as Alex Gaskarth walks onto the stage. The opening blast of “Oh No!” sends the crowd into a frenzy, and from that moment, there’s no turning back. They tear through bangers – “Weightless,” “Backseat Serenade,” “Butterflies.” Every word is shouted back, every riff met with hands in the air. Phones lit up the venue, transforming it into a galaxy of memories and connections.
Of course, it wouldn’t be an All Time Low show without chaos. Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat bounce off each other with that trademark mix of chaos and charm. The band’s chemistry felt electric and unforced. Every chorus feels like a victory chant, every guitar riff a jolt of electricity.
The set flows like a perfect mixtape – nostalgic anthems blended seamlessly with newer hits. Between songs, the band jokes, teases, and connects, their chemistry both hilarious and heartfelt. The encore – “Hate This Song” followed by a raucous, “Dear Maria, Count Me In” – sealed the night with a sense of joyful defiance.

Walking out into the crisp Halloween night, makeup smeared, voices wrecked, fans buzzed with post-show electricity. There’s laughter, hugs between strangers, and impromptu sing-alongs on the sidewalk. Nights like this remind you why live music matters – why the connection between artist and audience still feels like magic. All Time Low delivered a full-blown experience, a reminder that pop-punk isn’t a memory. It’s alive, it’s loud, and tonight, it owned The Sylvee.
