This moment was so surreal to me. I spent the last 20+ years listening to Breaking Benjamin and always wanted to see them perform live. Everyone has a band that really speaks to them and this is mine. Taking this camera angles perspective into account, I was probably standing 20 feet or so to the left from this view. Singing every word to every song and yelling it loud. I stood for 8 hours in one spot as close to the front as I could get so I could see them up close. Pretty sure most of all the people in front of me were there for slipknot mainly. This was my first ever rock concert and I will never forget it.

SAME FOR ME!! They can't make a bad song! This was also my first concert but I made it to the crowd in the middle of Failure but wiggled my way up close. It was an amazing performance! By the time it ended I had lost my voice by singing and screaming. I hope they come back next year! I know how to play 10 songs off this set list. Definitely an experience that I'll cherish forever

@@hughneutron5303I’ve seen them live 3 times. As someone who is adamantly against backing tracks live, it seems pretty obvious to me that Ben doesn’t use them just by the fact he doesn’t always sound great. There’s pitchiness sometimes and his voice isn’t always on point, which is awesome! Way better than him faking it. I would be pretty surprised if they used backing tracks especially since they have two other vocalists as well.

This was my 4th time seeing Breaking Benjamin live, and i absolutely have to say this is the best Ben has sounded in the past couple years. Im so proud of how far hes comes, this band and their entire discography has gotten me through the worst parts of my life, i ran to the front hours before they started and sang out every word. Theyre so amazing, and so inspirational, at 21 years old im happy to say that for my entire life ive been listening to their music. From diapers to demonias
