Yungblud stopped by Toronto's History on Yungblud: The World Tour with The Regrettes and Sophie Powers.
A Yungblud show is always a fun time. Tons of energy, great songs, a positive and inclusive attitude, and fans out to have a great night out. He apologized for not playing Toronto for three years (what could have kept him away?) and promised that he won’t miss another year.
When Yungblud asked the crowd to cheer if it was their first Yungblud show, a big roar emerged. Going from the Danforth to History is a big jump. He then asked who was attending their second Yungblud show, and a quieter roar emerged. Only a small number cheered for this being their third show. I didn't get to cheer because this was my fourth Yungblud show.
The set was packed with awesome tunes. Some highlights were "The Funeral", "Tissues", "Parents", "fleabag", "California" (chosen by an audience member), "Anarchist", an acoustic version of "Kill Somebody", they brought the band back for "Sweet Heroine" and opened the pit again for "Sex Not Violence". And, funny story, if an artist asks you to put your friend on your shoulders, you should know that the folks at History don't like that. Haha. Yungblud and the band finished up with "Lowlife" and "Loner".
