The Favorite Daze tour started with openers Silent Rival (CA), and Laundry Day (NY).  Ending with Neon Trees. I’ll be honest I had never heard of Silent Rival, but they left a mark on me with their performance that night. Sara (Vocalist) sounded amazing all night, and Jon (guitarist) ended up on the barricade. A member from Laundry Day actually came out and played drums while the drummer for Silent Rival played. All of which hyped up the crowd, warming them up for Laundry Day. 

Along with not knowing of Silent Rival, I had not come across Laundry Day prior to the Favorite Daze Tour. Laundry day brought out a Lorenzo’s pizza box as a prop (if you’re a Philadelphia native you know the vibes). I was pleasantly surprised with their set and will be adding them to the rotation.

Neon Trees started off the night with “Versions of You: from their EP of the same name released in 2021. Tyler (lead vocalist) draped in a metallic Purple / Blue suit running from side stage to side stage. Proving the band is ‘Still Young’, and knows how to keep it ‘Moving in the Dark’. 

 Neon Trees controlled their crowd with their songs, and energy the entire night. Ending their show with ‘When the night is over’. They had three encore songs. Officially ending the night with fan favorite ‘Everybody Talks’. Yet another tour that is a must-see, their next stop is Detroit MI!
