Steel Panther, the glam metal band known for their outrageous lyrics and stage antics, took the stage at Marathon Music Works in Nashville TN on March 6th, 2023, to perform for an enthusiastic crowd of fans.
Opening the show was Tragedy, an all-metal tribute to the Bee Gees and beyond. Tragedy did not disappoint, delivering a high-energy performance that combined heavy metal with the classic sounds of the 70s and 80s. The band put their own unique spin on beloved classics such as “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees and “I’m So Excited” by the Pointer Sisters, transforming them into metal anthems that had the audience headbanging along.
Next up was the hard rock band Crobot. The band is currently touring in support of their latest album, “Feel This,” and their performance showcased the new material. Crobot’s music blends heavy rock with blues and funk influences, creating a unique sound that is both gritty and groovy. Their set was full of high-octane, riff-heavy tracks that had the audience moving and headbanging along.
Steel Panther opened with their classic hit “Eyes of a Panther,” setting the tone for a high-energy show filled with catchy hooks, thundering riffs, and plenty of humor. Throughout the show, the band showcased their latest album “On The Prowl,” which features the same raunchy lyrics and catchy melodies that fans have come to love from Steel Panther.
They took a break after one song to engage with the audience and share the philosophy behind their music. The idea behind Steel Panther is that they sell fun. Their job is to make you laugh, rock your balls off, and have a good time with your buddies. They want people to come to the show to escape the realities of everyday life.
They encouraged the audience to embrace the party atmosphere and to participate fully in the experience. Putting theory into practice, they invited several lucky girls from the audience to join them onstage for a performance of “Never Too Late.” The girls danced and sang along with the band, adding an extra level of excitement to an already epic performance.
For the encore, the band pulled out all the stops with performances of “Community Property” and “Gloryhole.” The crowd went wild as the band delivered their trademark blend of humor, musicianship, and raw rock and roll energy. Steel Panther’s music and performance style provide a much-needed escape from the realities of everyday life, making them an ideal band for anyone looking to let loose and have some fun.
