On May 10th, Canadian indie rock band Good Kid brought their Can We Hang Out? Tour to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver. The Toronto-born group, known for their high-energy performances and catchy melodies, kept the Vancouver crowd going all night long with their quirky personalities and interactions with the crowd.

The band is touring in support of their first full-length studio album, Can We Hang Out Sometime? — A bright, energetic indie rock record about the importance of staying connected when life feels chaotic.

Good Kid took to the stage around 9:00 pm, previewing the fresh sounds of Can We Hang Out Sometime? Opening with the catchy “Wall”. Instantly, the band had the crowd at their fingertips, singing along to every single lyric and getting the whole venue jumping up and down.

The Toronto group have built one of the strongest artist–fan relationships in modern indie rock by making their audience feel like an active part of the band’s world rather than just consumers of their music. There is an official Good Kid discord server, and they regularly engage with their fans on social media. They’ve also tapped into the gaming/streaming space, letting people use their music without aggressive copyright enforcement and have made a name for themselves in the Fortnite community.

Through the night, the band ran through their hits like “From the Start”, Mimi’s Delivery Service”, “Cicada”, “Summer” and “Bubbly.”

The show was full of antics with a wall of death, playing basketball with a giant beach ball and hula hoops, and even lead singer Nick Frosst at one point joining the moshpit. With a show of hands, it was about half of the venue’s first concert experience, and Good Kid definitely made it one to remember.

One thing is for sure — anytime Good Kid rolls into town, Vancouver is always down to hang out sometime.

The Midnight turned the Queen Elizabeth Theatre into a glowing neon escape on May 10 as part of their Time Machines tour. Backed by sweeping synths and plenty of saxophone solos, the duo delivered a warm cinematic show.

By the time The Midnight hit the stage at 8pm, the Quennie was packed with fans spanning multiple generations. What stood out right away was how present everyone seemed. Phones stayed mostly down as the crowd soaked in every synth line, beat drop, and saxophone run.

Tyler Lyle was calm and conversational throughout the night, often encouraging singalongs that the audience happily delivered. The setlist balanced older fan favourites with newer tracks from 2025’s Syndicate. Songs like “Friction,” “Jason” performed with Harlee Case of New Constellations, and “Change Your Heart or Die” gave the show an energetic pulse, while “Los Angeles” and “Vampires” brought out the emotional core that has made the band so beloved in the synthwave world.

Visually, the show leaned into rich blues, purples, and neon pinks without going overboard. The production never distracted from the music itself. Instead, it amplified the feeling that The Midnight creates so well: nostalgia for a place that maybe never existed at all.

By the encore, the crowd was singing every word back as the band closed out a night that felt heartfelt and immersive.
