Electric Shock and Raw Soul: W.A.S.P. Lights Up Palladium Times Square New York City.
Fans came out in absolute massive numbers, packing Palladium Times Square to the rafters for a heavy metal masterclass that proved the old-school fire is burning brighter than ever. Stepping up to capture the electricity of the night was rockstarpix.rocks photographer Dalila Kriheli, whose lens chronicled every pulse-pounding moment from the floor.
The night was a triumphant celebration of the band’s legacy, heavily spotlighting lethal, timeless anthems pulled straight from their explosive first four albums (W.A.S.P., Last Command, Inside the Electric Circus, and The Headless Children). From the moment they hit the stage, Blackie Lawless and company commanded the ravenous New York audience with a crushing setlist:
Easy Livin’ (Uriah Heep cover)
Fistful of Diamonds
The Flame
Mr. Cool
On Your Knees
Thunderhead
Forever Free
The Real Me (The Who cover)
The Headless Children
Encore:
I Wanna Be Somebody
L.O.V.E. Machine
Inside the Electric Circus
I Don’t Need No Doctor
Wild Child

As the final chords of “Blind in Texas” echoed through Times Square and the sea of dedicated fans roared their approval as Blackie climed on “Elvis” – the legendary custom-built microphone stand , it was clear that W.A.S.P.’s reign remains undisputed expertly framed and frozen in time through the eye of rockstarpix.rocks.
