Dayseeker are one of my favourite bands at the moment. I saw them open for Pierce the Veil earlier in the year and I loved that, even despite the typical "opening act sound quality". I did feel that although the band sound great live, they were lacking a little in stage presence. This show was a huge step forward in that department. It would have been nice to have had more than 12 songs though. Enjoyed the venue, staff were both helpful and plentiful making the overall experience fantastic. Great band, great show, great night.

It was my first time seeing Dayseeker I had missed them back in 2022 when they had Holding Absence, Thornhill and Casket in Greensboro and tickets were sold out and missed them last year at emo night in Greensboro but man Dayseeker absolutely smashed it out of the park i canât wait to see them again next year.

Really had fun at this concert but a few disappointments, the vip experience I wish had been more limited as there were well over 100 people and we got maybe 5 seconds while they signed one item and another maybe 15 seconds while getting pictures. We couldnât really interact or talk. They did do a very limited q&a. We got a poster and vinyl but tote bags werenât provided like most vip packages and cost another $30-40. I was kind of shocked that the lighting budget was blown mostly on large screen panels that played visualizers, and half the time there was so much smoke you could barely see. But Rory sounded great.

Great show! Every organizers could handled filtering the crowd in better as there was some crush for us at some points, and kinda sour the first surfer fell directly on me. But nothing to do with the bands. Amazing sets! Dayseeker and Catch Your Breath nailed it, didnât really have a connection with em but they still kicked ass!

I went to 3 shows on the Australian leg of the Darksun Tour - Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne in my home town. I had purchased a VIP Experience - which was way beyond what I had expected and I am so grateful to the band for giving fans the opportunity to do this.
I'm 55 and it was one of the greatest night of my life! Getting to actually meet them, chat to them, get signed stuff and of course getting a photo with them.... and decided to be on the rail in the throng of the pit - I thought that was more than enough for the evening.... Dayseeker then came out and kicked the absolute living shit out of the Brisbane Show (which was amazing) and the Sydney show - my hometown of Melbourne - the audience was treated to an absolute plethora of emotions - insanity, joy, excitement, sooo much love - and when the stage pyro ignited with the bursts of fire - and the band being so fabulous and the high tech light show, awesome sound and the fireworks from the ceiling.... It was just EUPHORIC!!!
I think my first words were "I fucking love you guys so much"... Thank you for coming back to Australia, thank you for allowing fans to have this experience and
I didn't want it to end.... they re-arranged the songs from Brisbane and Sydney!!
Don't miss an opportunity to see these guys play wherever and whenever you can.
I know they will finally get the recognition and huge amount of success they deserve heading into their future... Please make sure they come back to Australia to tour again....
Sooo much love for Dayseeker!! Thanks so much for proving me with so much joy and a full heart! I appreciate the effort bands go to come here... it is a long way away from the rest of the planet... I've been a fan for such a long time now and my fandom is not going anywhere... in fact, I've got my next tattoo booked in!

I went to their Brisbane show the night before and I think the sound at the venue was not so great - but that takes nothing away from their performance!! they told the crowd it was their best show of the Australian leg of the world tour...
They are dynamic and such an underrated band and I hope they continue to have massive global success âŁïž
I'm seeing them tonight in Melbourne and having the VIP Expeirence and can't wait for that opportunity to meet the band!
I reckon Melbourne's show will be mental!! â€ïž

it was nuts fantastic! I love these guys so much!! they are such an underrated band and Rory's voice is like heaven... they were absolutely awesome! I am going to 2 more of their shows on this tour in Australia đŠđș - Sydney and my hometown of Melbourne âŁïž
I'd never been to The Tivoli - awesome venue and the sound was great!!
the venue was awesome but so many people squished into the place was uncomfortable and viewing the band was difficult at times because of number of people and the tall ones..

This was such an amazing venue to see a truly phenomenal show. I loved all of the opening bands and was an instant fan of these bands I never heard before but Dayseeker⊠just wow! I was singing at the top of my lungs, jumping, dancing and even crying at times. I will always go to any Dayseeker concert I can make it to. They put on a great show.

Probably the best live performance I have seen. The setlist was perfect, the energy was amazing, and Rory had a really good grasp on how to connect with the crowd and get them engaged in multiple ways without it ever feeling inorganic.
Their sound transfers perfectly from the songs on the album to live as well. Some bands sound a little different (or a lot in some in cases) but Dayseeker sounded exactly as expected.
Little Rock, AR@Little Rock Music Hall
Dayseeker was absolutely amazing. Beautiful songs and voice. I was in awe of the entire performance . Absolutely stunning ...Asking Alexandria brought the heat. Incredible songs and performance. High energy and u can't beat his range. I Prevail was without their lead singer but they still managed to put on an absolutely incredible performance. Great voices and amazing energy from those guys! I would def see them again. Staind was the headliner. I unfortunately wasn't impressed. They just didn't sound good. Perhaps it was technical issues but it wasn't too pleasant to listen too. Almost cringe worthy. Made me uncomfortable and I actually felt bad for them. He has beautifully written songs and I am a fan, but he def seemed off and not too into the show. Not a lot of energy or charisma. I prob wouldn't see them again. But I do wish them the best.

WORTH EVERY PENNY. MUST SEE SHOW. AVOID knows how to fire up a crowd and get shit started! Absolutely LOVED their energy and music - must check them out if you donât know them. Rain City Drive was FANTASTIC. Matt has vocals like an angel! Silent Planet was a TRIP. Was soo good to see such an amazing band take place for Polaris and absolutely KILL IT. And of course, Dayseeker was everything you would expect. Just AMAZING. Rory is phenomenal live and just fantastic. MUST SEE THIS LINE UP!
Sauget, IL@Pop's NightClub & Concert Venue
All four bands were absolutely awesome. Great energy right off the bat from Avoid, Rain City Drive was a great follow up (especially when we got to hear Medicate Me only a few days after its release), with Silent Planet ratcheting up the intensity for Dayseeker to come on and absolutely crush it. Not one bad set. Special shout out to the security guards, who definitely got their workouts in last night. Listened to the whole set list on my way home this morning. If I could do it all again tonight, I would!

I don't have the words to describe what I felt in this moment, I waited a long time to see them in real life. I almost didn't have tickets to see the show and I'm glad I persevered to find them. It was just amazing and I really hope to see them again, in France with some luck, if not, somewhere else.
Hope they can flourish and share a lot of songs with us. They are truly touching and still help me to this day.

First time seeing Dayseeker. Drove from the Mountains (Salida, CO) to see them! Loved, Loved Loved them. They guys were so genuine. My husband and I got to meet the band with VIP tickets. They were hospitable when signing the artwork I had brought. I would definitely see them again. Canât wait to see what the future holds for the band. đ©·đ€đ©·

DaySeeker were absolutely phenomenal! Whole band are amazing to see live. The voice on the lead singer captures you with every heart felt word! Can't believe this was the first time they played Glasgow but they blew the roof off the place! Hope to see them come back over and do a bigger venue! Loved these guys since their first album!

It was sad that their bus had issues the day prior making them late to the show. But honestly that made for one of the most intimate and incredible experiences we will ever get to witness. Rory being a real OG And performing the ever so rare Dayseeker Unplugged set was absolutely mind blowing! By far one of the most talented individuals in music right now!! Thank you so much for that experience and we cant wait for you guys to come back to the area again!!

Would give it a 5, but Bad Omensâ fans are sh**. Someone groped my partner and it lead to me and him having an altercation. Security was a little lazy with alerting for crowd surfers which lead to me pulling a muscle behind my shoulder blade from catching peopleđother than that, it was an amazing show. The bands were flawless. I cried during Dayseekerâs entire Setđ€

There were some technical issues so it wasn't the bands fault. We even got an unreleased song, it was like a VIP experience :> his voice is so good I can't wait to see them with bad omens in December!!! The acoustic show turned out really well but I can't wait to hear the band all together live đ€!!

Caskets blew me away with holding absence in top 2nd with kind of repetitive lyrics the singer knows how to sing almost as well as the caskets singer Thornhill was like a rock version of leprous but different with how their rock is kind of math rock and was actually kind of disappointed at dayseeker heard their liverstream with bad omens back in 2020 and sounded ten times better definetly think caskets should lead next time
Chicago, IL@Bottom Lounge
Truly, it was an amazing show. From the beginning act, Caskets, all the way to Dayseeker. As usual, everyone was taking care of each other. Thats one thing iâve always loved from the metal community. We are all there to enjoy the show⊠& what a show it was. 10/10. Thank you to all the acts. I pray for their safety as they continue on this tourâ€ïž
