HOG Fest 2024, hosted at Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum, delivered an unforgettable experience that resonated with rock music enthusiasts. The festival’s headline act, Staind, marked a monumental return to Milwaukee with a powerful performance featuring both their classic hits and new tracks from their latest album, “Confessions of the Fallen.” Their set demonstrated a seasoned band still pushing the boundaries of their sound and engaging deeply with their fans.

Supporting Staind, I Prevail stepped up with a dynamic presence, captivating the audience with their energetic mix of metalcore and melodic choruses. Despite missing a key band member, their performance lost none of its intensity, including a memorable rock rendition of Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space.” Asking Alexandria, opening the festival, set the tone with their compelling blend of rock and electronic elements, ensuring the energy levels were high from the outset.

The venue itself, Fiserv Forum, proved to be a perfect setting for the festival. Its state-of-the-art acoustics and layout ensured that every note was heard perfectly and every seat offered a great view, enhancing the overall concert experience. The event’s organization was top-notch, with well-timed setlists that allowed each band to showcase their best, maintaining a smooth flow throughout the evening.

HOG Fest 2024 was a well-executed celebration of rock music, leaving attendees with lasting memories and a yearning for the next edition.
