Spring has finally sprung along the East Coast, where snow delayed the budding and blooming of the trees and flowers until after April Fools' Day. The bad weather broke, and it was just in time for the Mike and Tom Awesome show to trek up to New York City (you know, the concrete jungle where dreams are made of) to see Rise Against's spring 2011 tour, supporting the release of their
wonderful new album Endgame. Always the type to put on a good show from start to finish, Rise Against hand-selected Bad Religion to be the direct support for the entire tour, a sort of "full-circle" move considering Rise Against opened for Bad Religion at Terminal 5 just a few short years ago. They also enlisted Four Year Strong to open up the show. Based on how the show went on Saturday night, it seems Rise Against haven't made a wrong decision yet in 2011.
