The Vamps at Eventim Apollo in London – Gallery
On October 22nd, The Vamps took the stage for the second night at London’s iconic Eventim Apollo as part of their anniversary tour, celebrating the 10th anniversary of their debut album Meet The Vamps. Support from SOAP and Talia Mar had the crowd hyped from the start. The excitement was palpable, with fans eagerly anticipating the moment the lights would dim. As the crowd’s heartbeat seemed to synchronize with the rising tension, chants for the band echoed throughout the venue, building up a wave of anticipation.
The Vamps treated their fans to a full performance of Meet The Vamps, playing the entire album from start to finish. With their hits like “Somebody To You” and “Wild Heart” keeping the crowd in their feet and lovely acoustic versions of their songs, it was a beautiful night. To the delight of the crowd, they also threw in some extra tracks, including the unreleased fan-favorite, “Jack,” which sparked a wave of excitement. The band—Bradley Simpson, James McVey, Connor Ball, and Tristan Evans—were full of energy, delivering an electric performance. Their crowd interaction was top-notch, with Bradley even making his way into the audience, sending the crowd into a frenzy. It was clear that they were feeding off the audience’s enthusiasm, and the connection between band and fans felt truly special.
The evening was a nostalgic trip down memory lane for many, with fans—both new and old—dancing, singing, and even starting a conga line as they relived the songs that shaped their childhoods. Every track was met with cheers, but hearing those beloved hits live added a whole new dimension to the experience. The environment was warm and welcoming, with sweet moments of fan interaction throughout the night. It was a celebration of not just the music, but the memories and the community The Vamps have built over the years. Fans left the venue buzzing, eager for what the future holds for the band.

Wave To Earth Bring ‘the pieces tour’ to Vancouver
By the time Wave to Earth took the stage at Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Arena on September 4, Vancouver was already buzzing. A lineup stretched around the block as fans waited to see the South Korean indie-rock trio kick off the first date of their the pieces tour in the city.
The band’s stage setup immediately set the tone, arranged to look like a cozy living room, complete with windows that opened onto a constantly changing view of the world outside. The clever screens showed footage filmed just outside the arena, creating the illusion that the stage was looking out onto the neighbourhood. Periodically, TransLink buses could be seen passing by, an unexpectedly Vancouver specific detail that made the arena feel intimate.
That sense of intimacy carried into the band’s entrance, with lead singer Daniel Kim stepping onto the stage wearing a UBC Arts cap, a small but memorable nod to the city and its university community.
From the opening notes, Wave to Earth leaned into the warm, laid-back atmosphere that has made their music resonate with fans around the world. The contrast between the arena’s size and the deliberately homey stage design made the show feel like being invited into the band’s living room.
As the opening night of the pieces tour, the Vancouver show set the tone for what promises to be a visually thoughtful and atmospheric run of dates.

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.
