Last Sunday, we were lucky enough to attend Self Help Fest in Philadelphia, PA. Specifically designed for fans by pop-punk group A Day To Remember, the festival aimed to create the sense of belonging and connection that music so often emits — and it succeeded. Amongst a few kicks in the head from crowd surfers and random “Bohemian Rhapsody” sing-a-longs started by the audience, we felt at home and surrounded by family. With impeccable performances from Microwave, Silverstein, Wage War (A+ guitar work!), and Underoath, and anti-hate speeches from Stray From The Path, it was impossible to avert our eyes. And let’s not forget the confetti cannon that opened A Day To Remember’s first song for the final set of the night. Every act had something important to offer, so if you’re looking to attend the festival yourself, check out the rest of the dates here. And take a look at our photos from the Philadelphia date below:
