Mom Jeans came out strong in M-Shop performance, but Just Friends stole the show
September 14, 2018
Mom Jeans and supporting acts, Just Friends and Shortly, made for a wild M-Shop show.
Throughout four acts, the sold out M-Shop was treated to a wide range of sounds and styles from loud fast dirty guitars, to somber moodiness, to triumphant brass and pure emo rock.
“Just Friends was so good,” said John Rachi, “I wasn’t expecting the level of hype it had. I couldn’t help it, I had to stage dive I don’t think it would have been the same show without them.”
“They [Just Friends] had a huge impact on the show and made it a lot better,” said Brian Guidarini about the supporting act.

“I can’t express how greatly for and how thankful we are that so many people care about this little band,” said Mom Jeans frontman Eric Butler as he took in the crowd’s love at the end of the night.
Mom Jeans pleased passionate fans with favorite after favorite. The audience could dance, mosh, belt out lyrics, and immerse themselves in the emo sound.
Just Friends delivered a shocking show stealing performance complete with a blasting horn section, raging rebellious rap rock, and an unbelievable aggressive stage presence that turned The M-Shop into a room of complete mayhem. Everyone leaving the show couldn’t stop talking about Just Friends.
Shortly awed the audience with soft soothing vocals during her progressive and introspective set.
“Mover Shaker” opened the show with a wall of noise, effortlessly transitioning from shredding nasty metal influenced riffs to twinkly slow emo, the band came out guns blazing with the loudest performance of the night.
