Photos: Rob Zombie / Korn / In This Moment @ Gexa Engery Pavilion, Dallas, TX

At first glance, I thought this show was a rerun from 2015's BFD, which had Rob Zombie headlining and In This Moment playing earlier in the day. But on the "Return of the Dreads" Tour, Korn would be taking the place of Breaking Benjamin, which played just before Zombie at BFD. In my opinion, a much better choice. In This Moment's sets are always fun to watch, as the theatrics of lead songstress Maria Brink and company are over the top. For us concert photogs, shooting In This Moment is equally as fun, since they allows photographers to shoot the entire set, while most bands allow the first three songs. So, despite only getting to shoot Korn and Rob Zombie for three songs, they make up with a pure auditory onslaught. I haven't kept up with Korn for ages but love their older material, and I have to say they sound just as good as ever and their new material comes off well live. Seeing Zombie is definitely a treat because his shows are a nonstop fury of sounds and visual stimulation. Also, his shows are, without a doubt, some of the hardest to shoot with the constant singular colors cascading the artists onstage. But when you do get a good shot, it makes it that much sweeter.
