Games We Play is a pop punk band from Miami FL, now based in Los Angeles. The band performed their first ever show in LA inside a Denny’s diner. You can find the video on YouTube, “What the Fuck Is Up Denny’s”. The group has been shown a lot of success with signing to Fueled by Ramen & DCD2 to collab-ing with Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy. Games We Play are super energetic and play ear catching tunes. Make sure to get to the concert early to check them out!

The Regrettes are a punk band hailing from Los Angeles. As a mostly full-girl rock band you can feel the grittiness and girl power. With their unapologetic lyrics to create a pleasing show for the crowd to jam along with. The group is signed with Warner Bros Records and have released three studio albums, ‘Feel Your Feelings Fool!’, ‘How Do You Love’, and ‘Further Joy’. The Regrettes create an ambiance that is perfect for the start of a Yungblud show, getting the crowd prepared and keeping all in the room entertained.

Yungblud’s ability to capture the crowd is astonishing. Constantly jumping and running around the stage, just made me tired watching him. He was born to perform, and you can feel it through his performance, stage presence, and lyrics. Dominic Richard Harrison, which is Yungblud’s birthname, is an English singer from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. Yungblud creates songs and lyrics that people can relate to, which makes his performances that much more special. As he even stated during the show, he felt for a long time that he felt he was misunderstood most of his life, being able to utilize his music to connect with fans and others that also may feel that way is incredible. It is also worth mentioning that he did state the Minneapolis date has been one of his favorites on tour and that he would be back every year on tour, so if you missed out this time, you need to make sure you catch the next one, and the ones after that too. You will not be bored at a Yungblud show. Heck, he even brought several fans on stage to dance with him or pick the next song for the setlist. How many people can say that they have seen that at a concert, very, very few. Yungblud is a star performer and you do not want to miss his next show, I promise you are in for a stellar show.
