Bangarang: Skrillex shows off new album at F-Shed at the Market

Halloween came early this year.

Fans wearing costumes watched world famous electronic dance music artist Skrillex perform at The F-Shed at the Market on Wednesday night. When Skrillex first came onto the stage, he took photos of the crowd and high-fived all of the crewmembers in the pit before starting his set. The DJ’s enthusiasm was unwavering as he jumped around the stage. His contagious energy reached the audience, where people were crowd-surfing and dancing nonstop.

“Come on, Cuse,” he repeatedly said to the crowd.

Skrillex played his hits “Bangarang” and “Recess,” which made the concertgoers go crazy. Syracuse was his 17th stop on his fall tour featuring the opening acts DJ Valentino Khan, Nadastrom and Big Gigantic.
