YUNGBLUD at Uber Eats Music Hall in Berlin

Published

on

On October 20, Berlin’s Uber Eats Music Hall was packed to capacity as YUNGBLUD brought his IDOLS tour to the city.

Fans filled every corner of the venue long before the lights went down, and when the first notes hit, the energy in the room exploded. Kicking off with “Hello Heaven, Hello,” the 28-year-old firecracker was already sprinting across the stage before the lights had fully settled. Shirtless by the second song (“The Funeral”), he was all adrenaline and grin: rock star chaos wrapped around a very human core.

The set pulled heavy from his latest album Idols, a record that sees YUNGBLUD (a.k.a. Dominic Harrison) embracing his contradictions: loud, jagged, vulnerable, and completely unfiltered. Tracks like “Lovesick Lullaby” and “Fire” hit like open-heart surgery with guitars, while “Fleabag,” performed solo, burned with a rare, focused intensity.

Over the years, YUNGBLUD has grown from an unpredictable newcomer into a confident performer who knows exactly how to command a stage. He’s still that same punk kid railing against expectation, but now with sharper intent and a voice that’s matured without losing its snarl. Between songs, he spoke directly to the audience, about the importance of individuality, self-expression, and staying true to who you are. It’s a message that has followed him throughout his career, and in Berlin, it clearly resonated.

Midway through, his cover of Black Sabbath’s “Changes” brought the chaos to a halt. The crowd stood silent, some visibly emotional, as he dedicated it to Ozzy Osbourne, a promise he’s kept since the icon’s passing. From there, he tore through “Lowlife” and “War” like he was exorcising demons. The show ended with his emotional ballad “Zombie,” leaving the audience chanting for more.

By the end, YUNGBLUD had nothing left to give which is exactly why people love him. It’s not perfection he’s chasing. It’s truth. And in Berlin, he found it.

Big Boi, Dot Da Genius, Chip Tha Ripper on Kid Cudi’s ‘The Rebel Ragers Tour

Big Boi

Before Kid Cudi took the stage at Rogers Arena on June 19, fans were treated to a stacked lineup of hip-hop veterans and collaborators that set the tone for an energetic night. 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.

Alestorm Turns Commodore Ballroom Into One Giant Pirate Party

Alestorm-Vancouver-44

Last night, I had the chance to photograph Alestorm at the Commodore Ballroom, and honestly, it was one of the most fun shows I’ve shot in a long time.

From the second the band hit the stage, the energy in the room was unreal. The crowd was singing every word, throwing their hands in the air, and fully embracing the pirate-themed chaos that Alestorm is known for. It felt like one massive party where everyone was in on the same joke.

As a photographer, this show was packed with great moments. Between the colourful lighting, the band’s larger-than-life stage presence, and the nonstop crowd interaction, there was always something happening. Every time I thought I had captured my favourite shot of the night, another moment would unfold right in front of me.

One thing that really stood out was how connected the band was with the audience. You could tell the fans weren’t just there to watch. They were there to be part of the experience. Looking around the room and seeing hundreds of people singing together made it clear why Alestorm has built such a loyal following over the years.

My favourite photos ended up being the ones that captured that connection. The laughter, the singalongs, the raised hands, and the pure excitement on people’s faces told the story of the night better than any stage setup ever could.

Alestorm brought the music, the fun, and the chaos in the best possible way. If you ever get the chance to see them live, be ready for a night that’s equal parts concert and pirate adventure.
