Nothing But Thieves at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver – Gallery
On October 24, Nothing But Thieves brought their Welcome To The DCC World Tour to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, BC.
Brothers Layne and Myles Ulrich along with Kai Smith, aka Taipei Houston, opened the show. The indie-rock band, created in 2021, shared tracks from their 2022 debut album Once Bit Never Bored, as well as new release “Braindeaf.”
Shortly after 9pm, Nothing But Thieves appeared on stage surrounded by an atmospheric lighting that matched the moody intensity of their music, immediately immersing fans in the world of Dead Club City. Conor Mason’s vocal range was remarkable, from powerful rock belts to haunting falsettos. The band’s tight chemistry was evident, with Joe Langridge-Brown and Dom Craik’s guitar work interweaving, adding a raw edge to their live sound.
The setlist was well-curated, featuring a mix of tracks from their latest album Dead Club City alongside older hits. The crowd was a mix of long-time fans and newcomers, creating a palpable sense of community in the venue. You should have seen the length of the merch line! Standout moments included “Welcome to the DDC,” a high-energy performance that perfectly captured the vibe of the new album, and the final song “Overcome,” which had the entire audience singing along.
Nothing But Thieves have mastered the art of balancing introspective lyrics with explosive live energy, making the Welcome to the DDC World Tour a must-see experience for alternative rock enthusiasts.

Snail Mail Took Over Le Trebendo in Paris for ‘Ricochet’ Tour
Snail Mail, Lindsay Jordan’s indie rock solo project, took over Le Trabendo in Paris, France on June 23.
As fans slowly made their way to the venue, they were welcomed by the bedroom pop sounds of singer-songwriter Unflirt. The emerging London-based artist, whose real name is Christine Senorin, performed both new and old songs. From her first single “Crush” to a few songs from her album Fleeting, fans were lucky enough to also hear her new unreleased song, “New York.”
At 9pm, it was then time for Snail Mail to hit the stage. Four years since their last headline show in France, fans were so excited to see them again that many braved the heat wave—fittingly also the title of one of the songs performed that evening. By the first song, the venue was crowded and buzzing, and Snail Mail delivered a high-energy show despite the melting heat.
Ricochet, the band’s third album, was released in March of this year, and fans got to hear it in its entirety throughout a carefully crafted setlist. Starting with “Tractor Beam,” Snail Mail performed a mix of songs from their entire discography, from the critically acclaimed single “Valentine” to “Thinning,” the opening track of her debut EP. The night ended with “Pristine,” jokingly called “Paris-tine” for the night.
The Ricochet Tour, started in April in America, is now coming to an end with its last shows in the United Kingdom. Snail Mail will then embark on a co-headline tour with Soccer Mommy across the United States next fall.

Big Boi, Dot Da Genius, and Chip Tha Ripper each brought their own style, making the opening portion of The Rebel Ragers Tour feel like an event of its own.
Chip Tha Ripper kicked things off with an easygoing confidence that quickly won over the audience. His chemistry with the crowd and longtime connection to Kid Cudi made his set feel like a natural extension of the night’s theme rather than just an opening performance.
Dot Da Genius followed with a polished set that highlighted his production work and solo material. His atmospheric sound filled Rogers Arena, offering a change of pace that fit naturally within the lineup. Longtime Kid Cudi fans clearly appreciated seeing one of his closest collaborators perform live.
Big Boi closed out the opening acts in commanding fashion. The OutKast legend delivered a confident set packed with charisma and Southern hip-hop classics. His decades of experience showed through every performance, with fans rapping along and dancing from start to finish.
Together, the trio provided an entertaining build-up that had the arena fully energized and ready for Kid Cudi‘s highly anticipated headlining performance.
