Tour
Paramore announced their U.S. tour for
Brand New Eyes on their official site, with
The Swellers and
Paper Route joining them as opening acts. The first show of the tour was played at a packed
Fox Theater in
Pomona, California, on September 29, 2009 (the day of the album's release). During "
Decode",
Williams lost her voice and the two remaining songs in the setlist were
played instrumentally. The tour, which previously went from September
29, 2009, to November 1, 2009, was later officially postponed on October
2, 2009, due to a case of
laryngitis for singer Hayley Williams.
The full tour resumed on October 10, 2009, in Chicago.
The band also announced that they would be doing a European tour starting off in Helsinki, Finland, on November 29, 2009, with
You Me at Six,
Paper Route, and Now, Now Every Children supporting all UK tour dates.
They performed in February 2010 in the
Australian Soundwave Festival,
along with bands such as
You Me at Six,
Taking Back Sunday,
All Time Low and
Alexisonfire.
They performed at the Soundwave Festival before they did the Brand New
Eyes Tour in Australia. Then in the first week of march they performed
two concerts in New Zealand. One to a sell out crowd of 5000 in Auckland
and the other in Christchurch.
Paramore will support
Green Day
on their tour. They will open the concerts of Green Day in Dublin,
Ireland (June 23, 2010) and in Paris, France (June 26, 2010).
In July, August and September 2010, the band announced a tour in the
Honda Civic Tour 2010.
In May 2010, the band announced a short UK tour for November 2010.
In June 2010, the band announced a short Australia Tour for October
In November 2010, the band announced a short in South American Tour for February and March,
and the band announced a short American tour for December
They have stated that after their South American tour, the band will take a break to write for their next album.
Honda Civic Tour Show
The
Honda Civic tour
was the biggest production the band had had so far. The stage was
constructed of 3 ramps up to a platform behind the drum set, and 6 large
video screens behind that. The show began with a large black curtain
concealing the stage while the band played an instrumental intro, with
spotlights revealing the silhouettes of the band. As the intro ended,
they begin playing "
Ignorance"
as the curtain simultaneously dropped, the video screens flashing the
band's logo during the intro, as the intro progressed the video screen
changed to images of light bulbs (similar to the song's music video)
during the intro, light bulbs also swung down from the top of the stage,
continuing to swing throughout the song. The band then played "Feeling
Sorry" as the video screens each showed a live feed of each member of
the band performing during the choruses, at the end of the bridge the
band would stop playing and Hayley would greet the crowd and welcome
them to the tour. After playing "
That's What You Get" and "
Emergency" the band played "
Playing God" as the video screens showed images of picture frames, the same picture frames on the back of
Brand New Eyes and the song's single cover. After that they played
Careful , as images of the Brand New Eyes butterfly flashed during the chorus, they then continued with their hit-single "
Decode"
as the video screen showed the band running through the forest with
fireworks and flares, the video has been described as a part-two to the
songs music video. After that
Hayley Williams and
Josh Farro moved to stage left and performed an acoustic cover of
Loretta Lynn's "You Ain't Women Enough." After that, a red couch (similar to the one on the cover of
All We Know is Falling)
and a small lamp were brought out and the band performed a three song
acoustic set, during this the light bulbs from Ignorance were brought
down again to illuminate the stage. After that the band returned with
"Let the Flames Begin" while the video screens showed images of open
hands during the 'Oh Father' outro. They then performed "
Crushcrushcrush" and "
Pressure
" stopping in the bridge during "Pressure" for Hayley to introduce all
the band members, and for Josh to introduce Hayley. They then performed
"Looking Up" while each of the video screens showed lyrics to the song
and each of the band members daily lives, at the end of the song all the
members came together to ride bikes as the split-screens faded away.
They then ended their main set with their biggest hit "
The Only Exception"
as pyrotechnics were used during the last chorus of the song. The band
then exited and come back for an encore, starting with "
Brick By Boring Brick"
while the video screens showed various images, including deserts,
snakes, the Brand New Eyes butterfly, and hot air balloons. After
"Brick" the band concluded their set with their breakthrough song "
Misery Business" as flashing images of the "
Riot!"
logo filled the video screens, during the bridge Williams would let
one, or sometimes various fans on stage to sing the rest of the song or
sometimes play guitar, and as the last chorus came in confetti cannons
were shot towards the crowd. The set concluded with the video screen
showing Paramore's logo and the band bowing then leaving the stage. They used the same production for their
Oceania and
UK tours.
