True Believers

Bouncing Souls are on the Teddy Bear Stage and they’re rocking as hard as it is hot. The singer is wearing a button-down shirt which he’s already sweated through and a pink tie with skull and crossbones. There’s a touch of ska in their sound, but with the kind of punk energy that makes you want to get up and go. A mosh pit is swirling around, but I’d hate to take a tumble on this concrete. The band’s wrapping up its 30-minute set with “True Believer” and the singers just jumped in the crowd. The mosh pit spins more and more.
