As someone that goes to a lot of shows, Twenty One Pilots really stands out with the live performance they give their fans. It's cool, unique, and highly engaging. There are no other bands of their stature that directly interact with their fans and will actually come out into the audience multiple times to perform and play the way they do. Tyler is constantly moving, running, and performing while singing, and playing. As a fan, you're never bored, and there aren't any bathroom break songs. Leave at the risk of missing something cool. For only 2 guys, it's seriously impressive what they do live.
Their new album "Clancy" is great, and the songs translate really well live. Special props to Paul Meany of Mutemath fame for his production work on this album. He's super talented, and has been a part of quite a few of their biggest hits. Sadly Mutemath is no longer together, but if you like Twenty One Pilots, do yourself a favor and go check out some Mutemath. They were a fantastic group of odd souls.

I am an absolute ADDICT when it comes to live music. I see a sh*t-ton of shows… My son and I have seen Twenty Øne Piløts 6 times now in various venues in Utah and Idaho…All that being said, these two young men are hands-down some of the most incredible, genuine, creative, energetic, talented, and fantastically engaging performers on the planet!! TRUTH!! The Piløts absolutely, positively keep ‘the bar’ at a level way beyond….!!
If you haven’t seen them live, you haven’t lived. Get it on your list of things to do before you leave this planet! You’ll be the next one writing a review like this about your new favorites!!
And, you are (of course), so very welcome. Whether you know it now or not, your life will never be the same 😉 !!!

this was the most magical, energetic, emotional, and life changing concert i’ve ever been to. it was my first time seeing tøp, and i had high expectations, but oh my god they exceeded those expectations. the entire time they kept the audience engaged, had an incredible stage presence, and enormous energy while performing. also, the amount of thought that must have gone into the production, the lights, the fire, the backdrops, everything. the entire show was so well thought out, and so masterfully done. everything tied into the story of dema and clancy and all that so well. i don’t use this term lightly, but it was the closest i think i’ll ever get to a religious experience. it was truly liberating, one of those soul meets body type of things. also, i don’t want to spoil anything, but let’s just say you can tell they truly, genuinely care about their fans. side note: i was seated really close to the b stage, and i was the only one standing up in the general section i was in during banditø, and tyler looked right at me. i don’t want to be one of those people who are like ‘oMiGoD hE lOoKeD aT mE’, but i have so much respect for this band, they helped me out of an incredibly dark place, i just find it comforting to know that they’re looking out for us. if you get the opportunity to go, take it, this was by far the best live performance i’ve ever been to.

My favorite part of the show. I stood there alone, in the midst of a crowd, all sweaty and starry-eyed. Smiling, as I sung the words I used to spend nights crying to. I needed a voice, I needed a lighthouse to guide me through the dark fog heavily weighing on my mind. Truce was every bit of that for me. All that I had. A friend that never left my side.
I just stood there in silence, in awe. Breathing in the moment wholeheartedly. Two years ago, I didn't feel the desire to breathe. I didn't feel the desire to live at all. But there I was shining, in pure golden strength. I was led to this very moment. My lungs filling up with euphoria as I watched those words move across the screen. Surrounded by a community of people who not only shared the music in common, but the feeling that came along with it. I knew everyone could feel it. The rush, the celebration. An overwhelming realization came over me like a wave.
-I am not alone.
This journey is meaningful, this life is meaningful. I made it through the darkness, and so will you.
The light is still beaming inside of you, no amount of darkness will be able to cover up something so true. You are here because you are important. You are here because you matter. You are worthy, you are loved, you are rare, and most of all, you are seen. I see you and I care about you.
Stay alive. If you are looking for a sign, this is it. The world is waiting for you to use your beautiful voice. (I'm waiting too. ♡) Blessings are headed your way. Light at the end of the tunnel. You deserve to feel the shine. You are worth it.
Please hang on, friend.

The only things I weren't particularly fond of, things I can only say because I saw them once before in November of 2018, is that the overall sound quality was not balanced as well as the previous time. Probably just because it was at a different venue in a different city, but it was hard to make out what Tyler was singing at points. Luckily I know the lyrics like the back of my back of my hand and had no trouble keeping up, but for the opening band especially, it was sometimes hard to hear. The other thing was just a personal preference, in that I missed the curtains around the B-stage. Regardless of this, the show was absolutely breathtaking, between the timing (as always), and of course the good music. One more thing I'd like to say, assuming anyone is still reading this, is that the crowd last night was incredibly energetic, and LOUD. I loved it. Thank you to Twenty Øne Piløts for the amazing show, and a chance to escape time's grasp for a few hours.

BEYOND AMAZING! I KNEW THEY WERE GONNA BE GOOD BUT I DIDNT THINK THEY WERE GONNA BE THAT GOOD! EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS! I’ve dREAMED of going to a show for soooo long and I finally FINALLY got to go and it was the best experience ever. Everyone was so nice and they were really funny and nice. It felt like home being there, I felt safe and that nothing could ruin this night for me. It’s still so crazy how I’ve only seen them through my phone, in videos and photos, thinking of the day that I will attend a Twenty One Pilots concert. All those videos and photos I’ve seen, became a reality and it’s sTILL blowing my mind. I cried maybe—10 Times? 15? It was so fun and the best night of my life. ||-// 11/13/18

They played Fortnite loading music before their set, meanwhile everyone in the audience was throwing around a glowing frisbee, a big yellow balloon and a small yellow one while cheering like crazy.
The boys come on, and during Fairly Local Tyler just FELL ONSTAGE and all the lights went out. But it wasn’t actually Tyler. He stood up among the crowd with a spotlight on him... and threw the same damn glow frisbee from before. The whole place went nuts.
Really though, Tyler and Josh made it feel like such an intimate experience rather than this huge show in a giant stadium. I felt so connected when Tyler looked in my direction after Car Radio with this huge dopey grin on his face. I laughed when Josh opened up his shirt to reveal the words “Red Sox” written on his chest. I cried during Leave the City and Trees, which is a very rare phenomenon.
Twenty One Pilots has found the balance between great music, theatrics, and audience engagement. The concert gave me something to look forward to, and right now I’m just happy to be alive.
That night I walked away from the show covered in confetti, sweat, and a smile. To Josh, Tyler and their awesome crew, thank you. Stay Alive

Columbus, OH@Schottenstein Center
Twenty One Pilots put on a beyond amazing concert. Words cannot describe the energy from Tyler and Josh. On top of that, they are beyond creative. The outfits, stage design, and cinematography are all unique to the band. As far as the actual music, it is beyond expectation. Tyler's voice is absolutely amazing, and Josh's drum playing is stellar. Tyler's climbing, one of them riding in a hamster ball on the crowd, the using of a "fake Tyler" to make it appear as if he has teleported across the stadium, playing Mario with a fan, Josh having a drum off with himself, all are downright amazing. Being able to watch their musical genius is a gift. The audience was super into the show, the fans are so dedicated, it's great to see everyone dress up as one of the members. If you ever get the chance to see them live, I highly recommend it. Thanks so much to the band and everyone who put on the show, it was truly breathtaking.
San Jose, CA@SAP Center

Wichita, KS@Intust Bank Arena
don't ever talk to me again i would die for these boys they are happiness and joy i'm so proud of them and all they have accomplished i will never be the same person after this concert i dedicate myself to josh and tyler even more now than before and not only to them but to their show and how the preform it they're the two happiest best boys on the planet don't fight me on this we are so lucky like !!! wow ! it was an amazing show and i would sell my soul to see it again don't even let twenty one pilots be anything ever than successful and appreciated ever again do you hear me? they must never go without love and the recognition they deserve and if they are ever deprived of that you can give me a call and i will personally sue the person responsible. also be nothing but nice and kind to them and their beautiful souls and all they offer the world. i expect nothing less for them and neither should they because they are the best and most beautiful ever and i am lucky to have been in their presence for even just 2 hours. i hope this short summary shows my stance on the topic.

It was the most amazing experience I've ever had. I wish it had never ended! This was my 4th concert ever and the only twenty one pilots concert I've ever been too, and it was by far my favorite. Being extremely awkward I usually don't really sing or dance at concerts and such, but Tyler and josh got me jumping, screaming, and singing right along. I absolutely love all of their music, but even the friend who went with me, not knowing almost any of their songs, left the concert telling me about how happy it made her feel afterwards and how cool it was during it and that it was her favorite concert ever too. It was an experience I'll never forget but hope to repeat in the near future!!!
New York, NY@Madison Square Garden
Amazing show. All the band's I got to see had awesome stage presence. Definitely did not disappoint.The only reason I didn't give it five stars is the venue didn't seem to have its ducks in a row as far as admission went.I didn't see any signs up directing people so I got in the first line I saw. It took a good 40 minutes and when I got to the front, they told me I had to go in the other gate, then when I got to the end of that line after another almost hour they said that gate was for pit only and I had to enter from the side I went to the first time. I was there an hour early and I still ended up missing Chef's Special completely just trying to get in.

Unfortunately this isn't a photo I took personally, but I think it represents the most important part of the night for me. If you look closely you can see Tyler smiling with his hand clutching at his chest, and Josh is standing proudly beside him looking out at the crowd.....I love this picture because the Clique made both of these amazing guys smile all night long. There was even times when both Tyler and Josh would stop what they were doing, lean their heads back, closed their eyes, and just listen to the crowd singing back to them. Knowing that we caused such a special moment to happen, and Tyler validation that we were their source of happiness that night, that is the best feeling I could ask for. Not to mention they both put on an insane show and gave it 110%! Seriously, if you haven't seen one of TØP's concerts, then you need to get to one ASAP! You will not regret it! |-/

honestly the best night of my life, they were so amazing live and the last encore song "trees" was the best thing I have ever seen. the lights were amazing along with the smoke that came up from the stage and the streamers also. the music was so good like obviously because they're just amazing in general but they were fantastic live. only downfall I had was the fact that my friend and I were really short compared to others so we had to jump and hold our hands high to video but we could still see them, there was just a couple times where we couldn't see anything at all, but the vibes there were also great. honestly best concert I've been to ever without a doubt.
Kensington, Australia@UNSW Roundhouse
What a performance! I had very high expectations because of what people were saying about them live and usually this leads to disappointment but not this time. Twenty One Pilots delivered and then some. I've been to a ton of gigs and seen some great bands put on shows. The two of them were all over the place...dancing, singing and playing on top of the crowd even. Josh plays the drums like a madman and is solid on the trumpet as well. Tyler is the ring leader and master of ceremonies, his shenanigans keep everyone entertained throughout. There was not a dull moment and the audience participation added massive amounts of energy to the show. Definitely one of my top concerts ever and I'd see them again in a heartbeat.
Leeds, United Kingdom@Leeds O2 Academy
This was the absolute best concert ever... Besides the venue's running of the GA pit. Not run like a normal GA concert... We were given bracelets with numbers and I was told we could start lining up for those at 8 AM the morning of. I arrived though and there were already 400 people in front of me and I learned that people had been there since 5:00 that morning. And after we arrived at the venue at 6:00 for the doors to open we had waited so long to be let in by our numbers that the first act was already finished with their set. But twenty one pilots made all the troubles go away with their set. I've waited since 2012 to see them and they did not disappoint. So much love for Tyler and Josh! |-/

If I could give more stars I would, they are simply phenomenal performers. The sound, the music, the lights and the interaction with the crowd, it is just entertainment for every single sense!!!! I went to their last concert at South Side Ballroom, it was a smaller more intimate venue, this time it was bigger about quadruple the size of South Side, and they still managed to make it as intimate as it could be if it was in a smaller venue.Since it was my second time seeing them I got seats, and it was worth it. The beauty of the duo is that they don't stay in one place, they make sure EVERYBODY gets to see them closer and be part of the show. A lot of people are starting to hate "stressed out", so is the group, but at the show they manage to make it unique and not overplayed anymore. They give the fans back the tingling sensation of listening to a new song by them.Overall, I am FOR SURE going to another concert of theirs when they release a new album. Tyler also said a little something about the tragedies in Dallas since it was the night before and he just knew the right things to say.If you are part of the clique, or just enjoy their music. You HAVE to go to one of their performances, it is worth it. They easily blow "A list" artists out of the water in terms of concert performance.Also, shoutout to the two openers: chef'special and mutemath. Mutemath was pretty cool and had an amazing use of their lights! I will def. check them out more!! Im sad I didn't get to experience chef'special more, but the little I heard sounded cool so I will alsp check them out.
Allen, TX@Allen Event Center
Hands down, the BEST, most amazing, fantastic concert I EVER went to in my life!!!! Josh and Tyler really know how to put on a show, they do flips and they really use the space and interact SO MUCH with the crowd!It's an absolutely amazing show, I was about 20ft away from the main stage at Southside Ballroom, since i'm short it was absolutely perfect. I didn't get squished, and was at the railing so I did not have to worry about people in front of me. I could just go and rock out.It's absolutely amazing how they love their fans, the most part of the concert, was the fans singing and they LOVED It. Of course the fast raps Tyler would sing, but choruses and even their most popular songs was a coalition of people singing their hearts out!!Just an amazing show for the eyes and the ears! They really care about their fans and KNOW how to put on a show.I know for sure, I'm going to see them again next tour!
Dallas, TX@South Side Ballroom
This was, by far, the best night of my entire life. I felt so free — I felt so alive. I've never been happier to feel so much sadness & pain. It's the good kind; it proves that the memories are real. Truly the only disadvantage is not being able to experience it forever. I promise you, no matter who you are, or what your story is, if you attend a concert by these two glorious weirdos, things will change; your life will change. To put it simply: if you want to have one of, if not the best night(s) of your life, sing and dance as loud & wild as you can, or just see an amazing performance, see twenty one pilots. In the meantime, stay alive. |-/
