The 2017 Vans Warped Tour date in Atlanta is now in the history books, and it was a highly successfull and productive experience for DSmithScenes. I went over to Atlanta and the Lakewood Amphitheater complex on June 29th to see and photograph a variety of bands, and I was able to catch many that were high on my prioritized list.
The Fantastic Plastics opened things off with a wonderfully fun and science fiction themed set, and it was honestly my favorite show of the day. I followed it up by catching the hard hitting performance by Bad Cop / Bad Cop and then seeing Memphis May Fire for the second time. From there, I thoroughly enjoyed the performance by Auburn, Alabama's Jule Vera and followed that by doing a brief portrait session with the members of Courage My Love. Closing out the day, I caught the sets by Andy Black, War on Women, and Creeper before the rain started to the fall and I headed back to Birmingham.
