Sublime with Rome Farewell Tour 2024 | Review by Janel Spiegel
Photography provided by Wind Creek Event Center (photo credit Dana Grubb) Bethlehem, Pennsylvania… What a beautiful night, the moon was out, mother nature gave her all. The entire night was beautiful as Sitting on Stacy and G. Love & Special Sauce opened the show for Sublime with Rome, the Farewell Tour. Rome brought all the homies together tonight. I know I saw quite a few of my friends. Rome Ramirez is the current lead singer, and guitarist for Sublime. Rome is also a songwriter, and producer. Always give all the love and respect to the songwriters. Rome brought so much to Sublime, and he will be releasing his own music, and has stated he wants to focus on that but tonight, a sold-out, packed show in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania was full of love, and gratitude from Rome, and the fans who came out to show love and support.
