World Inferno at Monty Hall
World Inferno played at Monty Hall, which is right by the Path station in Jersey City, so it was a super easy commute even coming from Brooklyn.
Opening the show was J Hacha De Zola and Black Wail. I missed the first one, but watched Black Wail. They were pretty heavy, kinda metal, but really good. Not my typical music choice, but I did really like them.
Their drummer is also Inferno’s current drummer, Felipe, but he looked super different playing in this band. Totally different aesthetic.
The venue was BYOB, so I went to a liquor store down the block and grabbed a cider to bring back.
Inferno went on pretty late. We didn’t know where Jack was, but he was definitely late.

Apparently there were 24 songs on the setlist???
I left the room during “Cats” to chug water. Patty gave me cash for a bottle, which was super sweet of her. Doug was taking a break at the same time, so we talked while we sat the song out.
Then he danced with me for “Heart Attack,” which seems to be a new tradition.
It was very hot in the venue, hardly any air conditioning.
There was a pretty slow start to the human pyramid during “Me v Angry Mob.” I got on top of two people at first for a small pyramid, then some more people got on, so I moved to the top again. One dude was holding my hand while I was up there, then another guy ran up out of nowhere and grabbed my other hand. I’m pretty sure he works there and was asking me to get down, but I stayed up there and just sang at him instead. Lol whoops.
Patty made a comment about how it was a weird crowd with people dancing in the front and back, with a weird line in the middle not dancing. And then she said she was part of that line lol
This was much more of a dancey crowd rather than a violent moshing crowd like at Market Hotel a few weeks earlier.
After the show, I took an Uber into Manhattan with Doug, Dallow, and two girls I just met, Sunny and Leeah, and we stopped for diner food before heading our separate ways.
