Leave it to 5 Seconds of Summer to prove to everyone in Pittsburgh that they're all ⭐ a star ⭐

5SOS brought their boldest era yet to Pittsburgh Thursday night on the Everyone's a Star Tour, celebrating the release of the album by the same name.

Pittsburgh got the full pop-punk treatment Wednesday night. The Paradox that early 2000s rush, Four Year Strong lit the room up, and Mayday Parade delivered an eruption you could feel in your chest.
