Heading to SF tomorrow night for one and super stoked for it. Anyone been? If you hate EDM or don't like these guys, then good for you. Looking to get some stoke/advice from fellow concert goers.

Gaaawd I'm so jealous. Wish I was going to get to see them on their final tour... They are a sick group forsure and you should have a blast man.

Hell yea guys. I am so fucking pumped. From listening to their live sets, seeing their light show/stage presence, the banger opener DJ's, and the amount of people that will be there, it's bound to be a sick show.

Anyone know how long they usually play for? I'm hoping for like a 4 hour set.

They played 2 hours in Denmark, the majority of their sets for One Last Tour are all the same. But since they took a little break over the holidays they could've very well switched it up. Either way you're in for a treat. Enjoy my brother!

god damn! every single friend I have that is seeing them in LA is going on the 9th except my girl and I. As the date gets closer I'm going to attempt to swap for the 9th on the off chance somebody needs to go on the 8th instead at the last minute.

theyre in montreal tomorrow night. i was lucky to grab floor tickets, i cant imagine having seat tickets.

to yall who have been, are they playing the same bootlegs at every show? or are they spicing it up a little bit?

I'm not sure if they do the same sets from show to show, but they weren't just playing the exact songs from the album, they mixed it up. The opened with an extremely sick remix of greyhound.

That looks like it would be terrible being that far away. I lost all my friends but one girl and we managed to squeeze our way to being 5 people away from the very front of the floor. It was absolutely insane that close up.

Listening to them in your free time and seeing them live are two completely different things.

Because you will be on awesome drugs surrounded by 40,000 people (20,000 of which are attractive females) that are on the same awesome drugs as you are. It's not so much about the music (although liking it is a big plus), but more about the atmosphere. When the confetti and giant balloons started falling down on me, the only thing I was thinking about was how alive yet surreal everything around me felt. I was just staring up at the ceiling watching everything float down on me while I embraced it all.

he doesn't mean everyone is talking. the music they play live is also quite different. i find that a lot of artists play darker and more industrial (not really but i can't think of a better term) sounding music. less singing and more sick drops.


for anybody going to masquerade motel in LA, are you supposed to wear a mask? there's a lot of stuff that implies people wear masks but i can't find anything either way. i saw some threads on other sites from old masquerade motel events saying people were supposed to wear masks, which would blow.
