Triple post but I’ll add this: TOP is the only headliner I can ever remember going on before 9 pm. On the Trench Tour they were starting at 845/9 pm, so wouldn’t shock me if on some dates on this tour they were going on before 9
They've been working on one concurrently with Scaled and Icy that's more of a follow up to Trench and a conclusion to the DEMA story IIRC Edit: found an interview! twenty one pilots' Tyler Joseph: I'm writing even more new… | Kerrang!
Can confirm they went on at 8:48pm for those heading to one of their shows! I wasn't a huge fan of them but a buddy of mine brought me along and they put on a pretty solid show. Made me a fan of songs I was lukewarm on
What time did it say your show started? 7:30 or 8? Cleveland says 8, so I was hoping they wouldn't go on until 9. I'm going to be cutting it real close. My son has soccer until at least 7:30 the night I'm going.
I love that I'm finding out from this thread this band opts for earlier set times vs most bands. I'd prefer to get home from a show at 10:30-11 instead of 11:30-midnight like most shows.
Excellent show last night at MSG. I think ticket sales have been a bit soft for this tour but glad they are still going all out in terms of production and energy.
Going tonight. Taking my wife. She doesn't like Twenty One Pilots and she hates going to concerts. Should be interesting. I originally bought two tickets 9-10 months ago (whenever they went on sale) with the intention of taking my son to his first concert, but he's too scared to go. Tonight marks my 9th time seeing them.
Show was great. I think this may have been their longest set in the 9 times I've seen them. They played for, I believe, exactly two hours. Love how Tyler was all over the arena, I know they have been doing the B-stage thing for years, and Tyler always goes to the back for Car Radio, but he was everywhere last night throughout the whole set. I was second row, lower bowl and the dude walked by me like, six times, haha. Tyler got hurt while doing Trees at the end. He either jumped and fell, or slipped on something and fell. All I saw was him go body first into the drum kit (there were some pictures after the show of him icing his ankle and knee). He looked like he was in pretty bad shape by the end. I was very worried how my wife would like the show (which is why I LOVE going to shows by myself so I don't have to worry how someone else is enjoying/not enjoying the show), but she was very entertained, to say the least. My only gripe with the set is that there are wayyyy too many mash-ups now. They hardly played any full songs, almost everything was just a portion. But all in all, great show and they never disappoint.
Holy shit, the live band adds SO much to their sound, I hope they keep that forever. This was the third time I've seen them and I think it might have been the best
It may have "Sold out" at the doors or been papered but the day before you could by a legitimate face value GA taicket.
Seeing these guys tonight in Portland. Been waiting 7 years to see them live, so I'm really stoked. While the setlist is 35 songs total, I was bummed hearing the majority is mashups and shortened songs. From the looks of it, seems they wanted to showcase as much of their older material with the full band as possible. Can't wait!
Yeah, that was definitely a gripe of mine, but it's still a great show and the transitions/mash-ups are really well-done.
I'm also going tonight. Haven't listened to them much this year, but their shows have always been fun, so why not.
Damn it I love this band so much. Scaled and Icy was a very different album cycle but still one I enjoyed so much. I absolutely love the album, still to this day. The live shows were good. The full band was a delight and the Takeover Shows, especially the small venue ones, were such a cool idea. Hoping they’ll continue to evolve the live show and retire some of the same bits they keep doing over and over again. I’m good with the live band continuing, or fine if they go back to just the two of them. Either way, I’m so pumped for a new album.
it was so nice going to mission ballroom with you :) cant wait to see you next tour! p.s. thanks for driving me back to my hotel LOL
