Milwaukee show!

First time seeing them was fantastic!! Immediately one of my favorite concerts live. Great openers too despite the tornado warning delay keeping their sets short!

What to Wear to Empire of the Sun this weekend!?!

I made these two tops and now I can’t decide which to wear to the concert this weekend! I haven’t had the opportunity to see Empire of the Sun since 2011 and they are my favorite band of all time. I’m vibrating with excitement! Help me decide which to wear. I plan on doing my Make up like Luke’s classic look to match!

Polo and Pan

I'm having a hard time seeing polo and pan in good conscience when they come to Chicago. After hearing that they made transphobic comments and other questionable statements, it seems like I'll be skipping their show. Am I the only one who feels this way?

Anyone else going solo to the Toronto show (GA Lawn) on Aug. 25?

I (42F) am going solo to the Toronto show on August 25th. It’s my first time going to a concert alone and I’m excited (especially for P&P!!) but it would be nice to have someone to hang out with before and during the show.

If anyone else is going solo and wants some company in the GA Lawn section, feel free to message me! 🎶

Is Meet and Greet worth the extra $$?

Hey All! I have 2 tickets for the Alpharetta show next t month. I’m super excited as I love them so much. My current tickets are in ORCH3, but I’m thinking of exchanging for a ticket in ORCH2 (more center view of stage), or a VIP ticket. What I wanted to ask is: does anyone think the Meet and Greet is worth doing? I’m pretty introverted these days, plus I don’t want to ruin my impression of Luke by meeting him 😂

Minneapolis show blew my mind. Do not miss the openers. Midnight Generation was amazing!

Empire was such a groove and experience. I had no idea what I was getting into and it was so great. Both openers were amazing and I loved the club dance groove of Polo & Pan, but you guys, MIDNIGHT GENERATION! My god. Do not miss them. They blew me away, so great. A daft punk grove with the vox box and claps and funky guitar it was so much fun. The build up to Empire with those two groups were a perfect pairing. The whole night was a 10/10. Get your tickets. Don’t miss this experience.

Any Code Breakers here?! 80-40-21

Saw Empire of the Sun at Red Rocks August 11th. At the very beginning of the show a voiceover says “Welcome” and counts down from ten to start the show.

After the last song, The same voiceover plays a message: (something I can’t decipher, then 80,40,21, 7,2,1, Afterlife) and the screen flashes EOTS and the numbers: 80, 40, 21, 7, 2, 1 appear onscreen.

Anyone have a clue as to what it could mean? Looks like we’ve gotten recent confirmation of an Album, maybe it’s related to this? interested to hear your ideas if you have any. Cheers!

Not a fan of the live Guitar

Just saw them last night in Minnesota and was kind of disappointed. I think the audio mix wasn’t to good since the vocals and instruments were the exact sam volume which made it hard to hear anything.

Luke’s guitar solos at the end of every song were not the best imo. He can for sure play but a couple times it felt like Marty Mcfly in Back to the Future. I saw them last year in Chicago and it was more tame.

Still enjoyed it for the most part, he played some deep cuts. Also the ai visuals sucked ass.

Issues with comp regarding chrysalis fest cancellation

I am dealing with an issue where the members from chrysalis/empire of the sun offered me tickets and a meet and greet experience for any tour date after the event in Los Cabos was cancelled. I got tickets but no information on the meet and greet with no response from those members now. I haven’t been able to get any help and wanted to reach out here. I haven’t emails saved for anyone who can reach out from Staff and assist.

Obsessed with the Red Rocks show poster. Wondering…

Are they going to do a unique event poster for each date this tour?

First Time Seeing Live

My wife and I circled the concert at Red Rocks last night on our calendar long ago. I’ve always wanted to see these guys and was blown away! I go to way too many Jamband, Bluegrass, and Folk shows so this was such a breath of fresh air.

The costumes, the visual experience, and showmanship were so rad!

I was curious what the names of those two little characters that Luke held the microphone up to and they had little guitar riffs? Are those a normal part of the show?

TLDR: first time experience was better than I could have expected. Will be back for more!

Interesting caption from EOTS - No AI used.

Is this a cheeky response to the fan reaction, or are we witnessing a fresh start without AI?
