Cage The Elephant frontman Matthew Schultz delivered an intense, raw energy to Night 2 of the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas. Though the T-Mobile Arena may be huge, Schultz got up close and personal with the audience, unexpectedly running through the crowd to wrap up their incredible performance.
Schultz's reckless performance with Cage doubled as a cardio routine for the Kentucky native. Following their show earlier at the Daytime Village, the singer still had a bulk of energy left and sprinted from side to side on the stage. He jumped off any surface he could find as the performed "Mess Around," "Ain't No Rest For The Wicked," "Trouble," and "Shake Me Down".
And if you're going to run around so much, proper footwear is a must. His eye-catching golden boots stole the show, reflecting the stage lights at all the right times. Where can we get a pair?
During their performance of their final song, "Come a Little Closer," Schultz hopped down into the crowd causing everyone to frantically search for him. He weaved in and out of the aisles and even gave a security guard a tender kiss on the cheek.
Cage The Elephant represented the spirit of rock n' roll just right at the iHeartRadio Music Festival, making the T-Mobile Arena feel like an intimate nightclub.
