... Pilots' Emotional Roadshow World Tour. Twenty One Pilots' Emotional Roadshow World Tour. Mar 17, 2017 Submitted by Meyer Sound & Tantrum | Excellence Awards 2017.

Twenty One Pilots Adored By Sold Out Crowd

... Dun attacked his drum set from the jump and his animated physical bashing was one of the key visual components of the show. The opening song, “Heavydirtysoul,” was a spectacular visual storm with Dun and Joseph dressed in suits and wearing ski masks. It set a high bar – surely two dudes can’t keep this up for the whole night? – that they cleared quirky song after quirky song. Here’s where we marvel how a concert of Twenty One Pilots songs gets one no closer to describing exactly what kind of music the two men play. Indie rock? No guitar solos. Hip-hop? Lots of hip-hop breaks but hardly a consistent feature. Synth pop? Outside of a gorgeous, synth-heavy rendition of “Fairly Local,” not really. When you thought you had the duo pegged and explained, they slipped away. Toward the end, the two opening acts - Jon Bellion and Judah & The Lion - were brought on stage to sing covers – Chumbawumba, House of Pain and Black Eyed Peas got the honors. Suddenly the stage was filled with performers including a banjo-playing man dressed as Santa Claus and somebody dressed as a lobster. It was absurd, goofy, and blissful. It was clear ...

Twenty One Pilots Get Deep About Dealing With Insecurities & Their Upcoming Australian Shows

... it’s safe to say your Aussie fans would agree with that. And it’s been around two years since you released Blurryface and it’s obviously been a whirlwind since then, but have you had a chance to work on any new music on the road. JD: A little bit! It’s in the early stages right now. This past tour that we did was pretty time consuming, but Tyler and I love coming up with new stuff. So, there’s times in sound check or in the bus when we come up with different ideas and just get super amped on something. So, we’re kind of in the initial stages right now where we’re coming up with ideas that we’re excited about and then that evolves into a song. So, as far as when that’ll be ready to go, I’m not totally sure but we’re trying as hard as we can to put something together because we love making music. MF: Blurryface was almost like a concept album and was shaped by intimate themes like insecurity and personal issues. Have the ideas you’ve been tossing around followed the same vein or are they more influenced by the new experiences you’ve had over the last few years. JD: Yeah, I think so. The concept behind Blurryface was really this idea of, exactly ...

Twenty One Pilots Tears Hearts In Louisville • The Louisville Cardinal

... Low” minutes before leaving the stage for the headliners. Since the band’s 2009 formation, Twenty One Pilots has reached fame and success with a number of singles released and four albums and EPs. Their Louisville show is the last arena U. S. show in their Emotional Roadshow Tour. The tour began last year and will end in June at the Firefly Music Festival. The sold-out concert began with a pounding, short rendition of “Fairly Local.” Joseph and Dun donned ski masks for the first few songs, before taking them off when Joseph is revealed to be among the audience. Then they continued the show with their eclectic “Heavydirtysoul.”. Throughout the show, the LED screens behind them projected animations of various art centered around the “Blurryface” album. The sporadic and exhilarating light show was overwhelming but only enhanced the already exciting show. About halfway through, the duo moved to the center stage in the venue’s pit. They slowed it down, singing a heart-wrenching performance of ...

Twenty One Pilots Bring The Fun To New Orleans

... as does Dun's nearly frenetic turn behind the drums. Surrounded by a display of strobe lights, spotlights, lasers, video panels and blasts of white vapor, Joseph and Dun were at the center of a production involving costume changes, masked characters, instrument swaps, occasional acrobatics (on their part) and quick races from set to set within the Smoothie King Center. As the night carried on, the pair pushed their way through more of "Blurryface" with "Message Man" and "Hometown" before "Heathens," the necessarily dark track from the "Suicide Squad" soundtrack that left Dun bouncing like a madman on the stool behind his drum kit. In a show that was at times overtly theatrical, Twenty One Pilots found heartfelt nods to their roots, much like the pantsless Grammys moment, which could have easily been goofy rather than genuine. During a brief set changeover, video boards showed archival footage of the pair in their pre-mega fame days just a few years ago when they were still road-warriors across their home state of Ohio, playing garages and living rooms and tiny ...

Twenty One Pilots Concert Magical, Promoted Inclusivity

... amazing, alive, magical cities we’ve ever played in,” Joseph said. “We had the honor of walking around not long ago. People always talk about how the music here can affect you and influence you, and I didn’t understand what they meant until today.”. The band’s antics, which included Dun playing the drums on a platform held up by members of the pit and Bellion in a hamster ball, ran rampant until the very end. Even the encore had fans on the edge of their seats, perhaps a little more than Dun and Joseph intended. There was about a ten minute break between the encore song “Trees” and the previous song “Car Radio.” When the duo came back on stage, Joseph made sure to explain this was because of technical difficulties and that they were not getting massages during the encore as a band they once opened for ...
