Recently, Hinder had a headlining stop at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey with special guests Saving Abel, Ardana, and Sister Salvation. The band showcased that they were even stronger with vocalist Marshall Dutton in tow instead of Austin Winkler, who left the band to pursue a solo career in 2015.
In the 2000’s, Hinder was the band to listen to in modern rock. They had a song called “Lips Of An Angel” which made infidelity sound romantic and the party anthems “Up All Night” and “Get Stoned”. The boys out of Oklahoma are about the rock and making sure that the fans have a good time, and they certainly did that at the Starland Ballroom.
Hinder opened up the show with “I Need Another Drink” and “Up All Night”, the songs set the tone for the night that you were there to cast your worries and troubles aside and just let your hair down and have a good time. That’s what Hinder’s music is all about. Songs such as “Without You” and “Better Than Me”, were audience sing alongs.
The encore was pretty solid as they covered “Life In The Fast Lane” by Eagles and closed the show with their smash hits and what the audience paid good money for, “Lips Of An Angel” and “Get Stoned”.
I was a bit surprised that they didn’t do their rendition of “Born To Be Wild” by Steppenwolf, overall tonight was a no frills rock-n-roll kind of night, where Hinder is remembering who they are, and that’s an American rock-n-roll band. Here is the setlist from the night:
- I Need Another Drink
- Up All Night
- Intoxicated
- King Of The Letdown
- Use Me
- What Ya Gonna Do
- All American Nightmare
- How Long
- See You In Hell
- Without You
- Wasted Life
- 2 Sides Of Me
- Halo
- Better Than Me
- Life In The Fast Lane (Eagles cover)
- Lips Of An Angel
- Get Stoned
