Since October, a variety of solo artists and groups increasingly began to play as the opening acts at Hurts' gigs, and by the end of 2010 Hurts themselves supported Scissor Sisters in their UK arena tour. In April 2011, Hurts held their debut performance in the US at the festival Coachella, and in May 2011 Hurts made an Asian tour, which was followed by a series of European summer festivals. 4 November 2011 was the final performance of a two-year Happiness Tour, in London Kylie Minogue joined the group to perform a duet of two songs. In 2012, the band played at a few summer music festivals.

Background

Description of performance, scenery

During the whole show Theo Hutchcraft throws in a crowd white roses on long stems with cut off spikes, there are usually about 10 pieces in a rider. [1] [2] During "Evelyn" he breaks a microphone stand. [3] Before "Illuminated" he asks the crowd to light their phones. [4] On Theo's left hand there is Adam Anderson, he performs most of the songs while sitting at the synthesizer placed on a transparent plastic base, but at "Evelyn" he gets up and plays the guitar, [5] after that he throws a mediator in a crowd. Encore they perform song "Better Than Love". [6]

At the first legs of the tour Hurts usually play against a white screen, in time complemented by the same illuminated pillars of white fabric. [7] Since 27 June 2010 at large numbers of concerts Hurts hang up the backdrop of stage with a large black linen with a white band logo on it. [8]
At the first shows Theo appears with the accessories – a white scarf [9] and a comb in his pocket, [10] during the tour there are also appears black leather gloves, [11] and at summer festivals Theo and Adam often perform wearing sunglasses "Ray-Ban". [12] Adam sometimes wears a black scarf, [13] [14] bow tie or bolo tie, [15] and a long black overcoat. [16]

From the beginning of February 2011 Theo begin to appear on stage wear a cape draped over the suit. [17] At the same time for a while, till 19 March 2011, the usual Hurts' scenery with highlighted cloth pillars are replaced by big blinds, on which silhouettes of the dancers from their second video for "Wonderful Life" are projected. [18] Since 1 October 2011 blinds are replaced by a big banner with a house with big windows printed on it. [19]
On some summer festivals in 2012 images of glowing broken and crossing lines, and a variety of videos including their video clips are projected on the screens. [20] [21]

From the first show and till 6 August 2011 Hurts are accompanied by back-vocalist Richard Sidaway, [22] [23] who stays the whole show without any move, he also sings the second part of the song called "Verona", [24] invariably there are keyboarder Pete Watson and drummer Paul Walsham. 9 October 2010 at O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire in London on "Wonderful Life" there were a female saxophonist and a female dancer dressed like the girl from the debut black-and-white video of "Wonderful Life". [25] Her dance is a mix of styles waacking and vogue.

Since 2 February 2011 show at Brighton Dome in United Kingdom at many gigs there are a male bass guitarist and a female viola player on stage with Hurts. [26]

3 June 2011 at the first summer festival named Rock im Park in Germany the band joined by two female dancers, two violinists and one cellist on a permanent basis, one of the girls also played the harp. [27]
The orchestra plays solo parts at the opening track "Intro music", [28] at instrumental part of the song "The Water" [29] and at the song with a grim history "Gloomy Sunday". [30]

Dancers appear on stage dressed in long black robes wear hoods during "Intro music" holding the black flags. [4] [31] On the first song "Silver Lining" they stay on the scene on their knees with their hands folded in prayer. On "Gloomy Sunday" they go on stage in black tutus and en pointes with long red ribbons tied around their wrists [32] and stay to dance on stage during the song "Better Than Love". In 2012 they put on red dresses for the song "Devotion". [33]

Hurts used red confetti at their show at Somerset House in London, 14 July 2011, Edward Bovingdon wrote in gig review: "Theatre dramatics came in the form of sexy ballerinas during intervals and a wave of red confetti ended the evening with a shower of symbolic blood."; [41] glow sticks, confetti and fireworks at Zitadelle Spandau, in Berlin, 13 August 2011; [42] fireworks at Brixton Academy in London, 4 November 2011. [43]

On 8 November 2011 Hurts wrote at Facebook: [44]
