This weekend saw Harm’s Way return to the stage for their first live show since the death of their guitarist Bo Lueders this past April. The industrialized metalcore band played the Casa Cafe in Chicago, IL this past Friday, August 28th, and did so with a bit of roster rearrangement. Bassist Casey Soyk moved over to guitars alongside Nick Gauthier, while Drew Brown of Weekend Nachos, etc. fame was brought in on bass. Vocalist James Pligge and drummer Chris Mills remained in place.
Fan-filmed footage of that intimate warm-up show can be seen below. With the group having directly followed it up yesterday with an official tribute show to Lueders that was held at the Ramova Theater in Chicago, IL. That set featured numerous cameos and guest musicians. According to those in attendance, it ran as follows:
“Intro“
“Human Carrying Capacity” (feat. Taylor Young)
“Terrorizer” (feat. Taylor Young)
“Silent Wolf” (feat. Taylor Young)

“Amongst The Rust” (feat. Jay Jancetic)
“Temptation” (feat. Taylor Young)
