Hurts concert chronology |
The Exile Tour is the second concert tour by British band Hurts in support of their second album Exile . On 11 December 2012, Theo Hutchcraft posted an image on Twitter which announced the first 14 dates of the tour. [1] Autumn 2013 dates were published by Hutchcraft on Twitter on 26 August 2013. The tour started on 5 October in Ukraine and will end on 22 November in Luxembourg, with 21 dates in total. [2] In February and March 2014 Hurts took a part in Art on Ice Tour. [3] Hurts was accompanied by the Youth Classics orchestra at the six shows in Zürich in February and March. [4]
At the beginning of the show, Hutchcraft appears on the scene wearing a hooded parka and leather gloves. He takes the parka off after the first song. As in the previous Happiness Tour, he throws white roses into the crowd. [5] [6] During "The Road", he breaks the microphone stand. Adam Anderson performs most of the songs while sitting at the synthesizer, but during "Exile", "Miracle", "Evelyn", and "The Road", "Mercy", "Help", "Cupid" and acoustic version of "Blood Tears & Gold" he stands up and plays the guitar. For the encore, they perform their song "Stay" at the first leg of tour. The light design team has a trailer with scenery and 20,000 lights for each show. [7] Unlike the previous tour, where dramatically dressed dancers followed the duo on stage, this tour focuses on the performance itself. [8] Dancers appeared on stage at the most of the many summer festivals since Rock im Park in Germany on 7 June.
On 25 October Hurts get new stage lighting equipment.
Hurts used red and white confetti at the end of the song called "Help" at their show at Troxy in London, 26 October 2013.
Instruments for performances: synthesizers; guitars "Manson", "Gretsch", "Fender Telecaster", "Fender Stratocaster", "Fender Precision Bass", effects unit "TC Electronic", "Mesa Boogie"; drums "Sonor", "Paiste"; saxophone, clarinet, viola, violins, cello.
Reviewers unanimously admit there is more drama in the new shows, agreeing that the emotional connection between the band and the crowd is stronger than ever. [9] [10]
The tour's setlist generally consists of half of the songs from Happiness and half from Exile.
