Paramore Crushes The Wiltern

November 14th - Los Angeles, CA

She shakes out orange and rocks down hard
She pump thrusts into the air
She reaches out and beckons us 
Three guitarists stand across and rock down in banged unison
Transformer lights throb
The music revs towards
Caterpillar speakers can’t wiggle
But blow us out
We posh mosh forward through The Wiltern unassigned
Art deco pillars, off-gold molding frame it
Riot trip video projects stage back
Hayley jumps up on her box
Telling us: "LA you want more? We’ll give you more!"
Paramore

Paramore
The crowd adores her directive to say "Oh yeah!" and "Dance LA! Though it’s ok if you’re not feeling like it"
Like a rad older sister, we’d do anything she says
Cause she knows how to sing it
Punk pop rock amp anthems
For a crowd happy to buy, why ask why?
Hypnotic tour posters t-shirt idols of a goose bump moment God
Like Zen, ___ a perfect 10
We Crush
Paramore

Paramore stopped in LA on their Riot Tour.
The band is made up of singer Hayley Williams, 18, guitarist Josh Farro, 20, and his drummer brother Zac, 17, bassist Jeremy Davis, 22, and for the tour, guitarist Taylor York, 17.
The band’s second album Riot! has sold over 350,000 copies since its June release, fueled by hit songs "Misery Business" and "Crushcrushcrush."
The band’s record label is the independent Fueled by Ramen, whose line-up includes fellow MTV favorites Fall Out Boy, Gym Class Heroes, and Panic At The Disco.
Paramore plays in LA next on December 8th for KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas at the Gibson Amphitheatre. They’ll be part of MTV’s live New Year’s show in New York, then go on tour in England for the beginning of 2008.
