Palaye Royale at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver
On February 4, American rock band Palaye Royale brought their Death or Glory World Tour and their signature chaos and glam-rock energy to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC.
Kicking things off was Johnnie Guilbert, who set the tone with his brooding yet infectious energy, warming up the crowd with a mix of raw emotion and dark, alternative vibes.
The moment the lights dimmed and the LED “Death or Glory” sign illuminated the stage, the crowd erupted. Opening with the thunderous “Death or Glory,” Palaye Royale wasted no time, immediately showcasing the raw energy and theatricality they’re known for. Remington Leith, in his signature bold makeup, moved like a lightning bolt, climbing stage structures, jumping into the crowd and dancing with the fans and engaging all night long. Guitarist Sebastian Danzig leaned over the barricade, shredding on his guitar as fans reached out to him, while Emerson Barrett’s drumming kept the momentum relentless, seamlessly blending glam rock, punk, and cinematic influences into a performance that felt larger than life.
The setlist was a perfect mix of old and new, featuring “Little Bastards,” “Dying in a Hot Tub,” and “Just My Type,” alongside tracks from their latest album like “Addicted to the Wicked & Twisted.” One of the most emotional moments of the night came when Remington started “Fever Dream” on the piano.
Visually, the show was just as striking. Between neon lighting, inflatable balls and theatrical stage design, the Vogue Theatre felt like the perfect setting for Palaye Royale’s chaotic, immersive world. The band has always been known for their connection with their fans, and this night was no exception. From heartfelt thank-yous to reckless stage antics, they gave everything they had, proving why their live shows are unmatched.
By the time they closed with “Mr. Doctor Man,” the entire venue was buzzing. If there’s one thing certain about this band, it’s that they never hold back—and Vancouver got the full experience.
Palaye Royale will be on tour in North America until early March so get your tickets now! More info on the band’s website.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Goose brought their 2026 Summer Tour to Vancouver on Tuesday night, turning the Commodore Ballroom into a sweaty, late-night dance party that stretched well past 11 p.m.
The Connecticut-based quartet — Rick Mitarotonda, Peter Anspach, Trevor Weekz and drummer Cotter Ellis — has built a reputation for letting songs breathe onstage, and Vancouver got the full treatment. The band played two sets and an encore, giving the crowd plenty of room to settle into the grooves and watch the songs take unexpected turns.
The first set opened with “Yeti” before moving through “All I Need,” “Turbulence & The Night Rays” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned and launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
There was little interest in rushing through the evening. Goose gave each section space, moving from tight grooves to loose instrumental passages without making the show feel like a collection of extended solos.
For a band coming off a European run and heading into some of its biggest U.S. shows, Vancouver felt like another strong stop on the way. The Commodore may be a much smaller room than Madison Square Garden or SPAC, but Goose seemed perfectly happy to stretch out inside it.

Chance The Rapper Brings ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ to Montreal at MTelus
After 10 years since its release, Chance the Rapper is back on tour to celebrate his album Coloring Book! With Montreal being the 4th stop on the tour, many fans packed into Montreal’s MTELUS on August 15th, 2026, with no idea of what to expect.
First, the audience was thrilled by an energetic and upbeat performance by opener La Reezy. His quick lyrics and heavy instrumentals had no trouble in setting the tone for the night, specifically during “Gold Chains,” and with stellar crowd engagement during “We Live.”
Then, Chance the Rapper took the stage! With Coloring Book being such a staple in 2016, especially in the rap community, it is a daunting task to bring that nostalgic energy back on stage. But, with a 24-song setlist, Chance does just that. Unsurprisingly, half the setlist features songs from Coloring Book, with the set opening with “All We Got,” and closing with “Same Drugs,” featuring a confetti-filled performance of “No Problem” in the middle. However, Chance doesn’t shy away from performing a few hits from his other albums as well, such as “Link Me In The Future” from STAR LINE, and some older work in Acid Rap.
Overall, there is something powerful about hearing these songs a decade later. The themes stay the same, yet as both the artist and audience grow, there’s new meanings and emotions to be found in the lyrics. The anniversary show felt like a reunion for those who grew up with Coloring Book, and that’s what ultimately makes this tour a success.
