Just in time for Halloween, 94.5 The Buzz presented Theresa’s Dos Equis Halloween Bash, giving Houstonians the opportunity to dress up and rock out with hometown band Blue October on their “This is What I Live For” tour. Fans filled the Bayou Music Center on October 30th with lively energy and full of Halloween spirit! Costume contestants were given the chance to register for a cash prize that was to take place right before the show. Many creative solo and couple costumes were cheered for and three were named winners.
The show started as lights dimmed and the band began to sing the hit “Daylight.” The audience sang along with vocalist Justin Furstenfeld. Following the end of the song, Furstenfeld began to reminisce on his musical journey in the city he was raised in, and his history with The Buzz.
“Ever since the beginning of time, they’ve always given us a shot”, he stated.
The audience cheered proudly as the set continued on and the hit song “Into the Ocean” had got the crowd wild. The venue filled with fans singing along and standing out of their seats in tune with the band’s amazing harmonies.
Furstenfeld grew emotional and shared a heart to heart moment with the audience as the show continued to roll. “I’m always very proud to be in Houston”, he exclaimed. He shared a story about his father and the impact he had on his career and his character. “He taught me to be a bad son of a b*tch!” he stated. “He taught me how to stand up for myself!” Furstenfeld shared that his father was a Houston police officer and shared his deep support and appreciation for them.
The set continued and the crowd’s nonstop energy continued to light up the room. The visual effects and the band’s groovy tunes kept the zen ambiance at an all time high. Songs like “Home” and “I Hope You’re Happy” were performed and fans sang along word for word. It was an amazing atmosphere and the place to be on Halloween weekend.
The show ended with the hit song “Moving on,” and fans left in high spirits and proud of the performance. The band showed their appreciation for their fans every chance they got, including at the end of the show. “Thank you so much for always showing us love”, Furstenfeld said before fans exited the arena.
