The heat from everyone around me was unbearable and made it somewhat difficult to breathe. I was glad that the concert was held outside. People lucky enough to be closer to the stage were sprayed with water by the stagehands. Not only was the heat an issue, but the overcast sky threatened to rain just like the last time the Neighbourhood played Atlanta. Fortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. From the very beginning, Rutherford was a bouncing ball of energy. I guess he knew that after all the waiting the fans did, he had better up the energy of the tired, hot, and sweaty crowd. Middle fingers flew up in the air as Rutherford got to the chorus and his fans chanted along with him. Later, on the drive home, my mom said that she could hear everyone singing the last song from where she was parked down the street. The Neighbourhood are a group of 5 guys from LA who have a black and white styled vision for themselves and even the fans participate in that as well. The band as well as all the fans who know of their black and white theme will dress in those colors for the show. Even the visuals during the show are black and white, they do not use colored lights, and have screens that show black and white video during their songs. Their music for those who don't know could be described as dark pop, alternative, and hip hop based. They have a tendency to have more of a hip hop styled beat with alternative guitar styles as well as a poppy melody that could be sang more in a pop way or fast like hip hop. Its an interesting style combination that works very well and is different than what you hear everyday. The frontman Jesse Rutherford knows how to work the crowd. He moves to different parts of the stage going to the edge to be close to fans, to dancing when the mood feels right, to getting crowd interaction having everyone chant or move their hands in the air like him. The band plays a mixture of songs from their debut album, their EPs, and mixtapes, so there is a variety to for them to choose from. It's always great to hear old material, current material, and new material all in one night. The shows are high energy even though their songs while listening on CD are usually more relaxed and sort of melancholic, during live shows the fans will sing the lyrics out all together and dance and sway making it so energized and fun. Of course by the show being so great must mean the band does a great job, which is true the music is always on point and the singing is very much like what you'd hear on a recording. These men know how to put on a good show and the more the crowd is into it the more they are too. It was a blast having everyone dance and sing along the whole show, as well as it being the final stop of the US tour for their album it made it special to see them for the last time until they have new music. They are a great band made up of creative, funny, sweet guys who make their fans very happy. This was my fourth time seeing them this year and I will definitely be seeing them again. Black and white will never die. How do I even begin to describe The Neighbourhood concert? For starters, The Neighbourhood is by far the best band I've seen live and this was the second time I saw them. Jesse carries so much energy with him while performing on stage. The only thing I wasn't too happy about was the turn out of the crowd. I think they're very underrated and they deserve a lot more attention than they receive. Regardless of the turnout, The Neighbourhood made it their best efforts to wow the crowd that they had in front of them and I assure you that's exactly what they did. The crowd, while it was a small one, was so engaged in the concert and clearly no one was dissappointed. The setlist that they put together couldn't have been anymore perfect and it was exciting to hear new songs that haven't been previously released yet. Although the first Neighbourhood concert I attended I was able to meet Jesse and Zach, I liked this one a lot better because I was so much closer and could feel the energy and enjoy the concert more. Their music is so unique that it's hard not to instantly fall in love with them. To anyone who hasn't seen or even heard of The Neighbourhood I highly recommend you check them out. You won't be dissappointed. The Neighbourhood was the first band I saw perform at Lollapalooza last year. It was super hot, and the crowd was excited with anticipation for the festival to kick off. So I was quite surprised when the band came out in all black. The lead singer had on a black hoodie sporting the band's logo which he eventually took off. They started off really well, getting the crowd moving to the beat. Looking around, I noticed that there were a lot of younger people who came to watch The Neighbourhood. They sounded really good live, and they looked at ease up on the stage. The vibe of the concert was pretty relaxed and chilled. As the concert continued, more people started joining the crowd. What I like about The Neighbourhood is their eery sound that grabs the listener's attention. They really brought out that sound, and the band sounded just like the audio recordings. One unfortunate thing that could have been planned better is the order of songs on the set list. So, thinking that the concert was over after the single, several people left to go to another show. Despite that hiccup, The Neighbourhood really showed us what a talented, young band they are, and I'm glad I got to see them. My name is Sabrina and you will definitely be hearing from me a lot in the next few months to years trying to make that sound a lot less stalker-y as it does. I've been listening to your music since 2012 and I instantly felt a connection. I've never been to a concert before and the fact that the first was on THEFLOOD2015 tour, I will definitely be cherishing forever. I saw you guys in Pittsburgh and sang along to virtually every song. I will be completely honest and say that I was a little skeptical of how the live performance would be and how it would vary in comparison to the record, but I was incredibly pleased. I was definitely shaken to the core by how the live music made me feel, a feeling that I can definitely say that I'm addicted to. I just want to thank you for that experience as well as telling you that I appreciate every single word you write and that I often find myself analyzing your lyrics during the hardest times. You guys definitely have my support 100% of the way. Much love, sabsterclarke Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat The Neighbourhood was absolutely outstanding. Despite being in section C, Jesse made me feel like I was in the first row. Not once were people sitting down throughout the entire setlist. With the neighborhood having a darker image than most indie artists out there, you would expect the band to be a bit more secluded and reserved onstage. However, this ended up being the exact opposite. Jesse can work a crowd extremely well and is very charismatic. He interacted with the crowd throughout the concert. He has such a nice sense of humor. The lighting and graphics were really cool too and really made the entire show. They were more important to the concert than one would think. The overall quality of the show was an A+. The neighborhood was amazing live. In fact, they were much better live than in the studio. I showed up to the concert expecting to have a good time and ended up getting so much more than that. There's a sense of unity one feels after spending hours listening to live music you love with people who have the same taste in music as you. Without a doubt I would see them live again. There is honestly no better place to see The Neighbourhood than in Los Angeles. The California natives' El tour blanco was one of the most amazing shows I have ever seen in my life. Their energy never dies on stage, not even for the second they were told they had to cut the show a song short due to noise permits. They came back out and finished with the perfect attitude and performance. The music is impeccable if not better than the recordings of each of their songs and the graphics on the screen behind them match the vibe of the whole show as well. They can own an entire Victoria's Secret store with the amount of bras being thrown at them from the insane pit and their laid back attitude was shown when Jesse grabbed someone's phone from the pit and took some selfies making the entire crowd feel comfortable to be in their presence and ambitious to hear the music. Definitely a concert I didn't want to end. I saw Imagine Dragons last autumn on their Night Visions Tour with NEIGHBOURHOOD and The Envy Corps. Before the concert, I listened to their album, I Love You. They were meaningful and were unlike any that I had heard previously. I was so intrigued by Jesse Rutherford's voice and I didn't know what to expect when seeing them live. I was not disappointed. Sweater Weather had just been debuted on the radio, so it was already a fan favorite. The song was performed better than expected and the performance itself was lively and full of energy. There was never a dull moment or any slip-ups during the entire set. The NEIGHBOURHOOD is one of my favorite bands of all time, and soon may be yours too. I am a concert junkie. I consider The Neighbourhood to be my favorite band so it hurts me more than I can express to only rate them two stars. Now I understand this was a music festival, not a solo The Neighbourhood concert, but their performance was incredibly underwhelming. Me and other crowd members started to question if he was on something or just high. He sang off from the music on more than one occasion and only addressed the crowd once. ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGGGGGG I am literally head over heals in love with them now after seeing them live. Jesse's voice, his sexy dancing... I thought I was in heaven. The 2 downfalls of the night were probably at the beginning. The opening acts were great but we had to wait a really really long time before they finally came out. Like about 2 hrs. But when they did finally come out omg everyone was screaming and there was just so much energy. And of course Jesse's amazing voice and energy totally made up for it. The 2nd downfall was probably the end of the night and I really really wanted to meet them. A crowd of fans just waited outside for a really long time like 2 hrs. And they didn't come out so that was kind of disappointing and eventually the police chased us away. Either case awesome nighttttt. The show was spectacular. There were two contrasting, but nevertheless amazing, opening acts who were followed by The Neighbourhood. The atmosphere that The Neighbourhood was able to create within that room was filled with pure exhilaration and excitement that had all parties there on their toes refusing to leave the venue. I actually had no idea that The Neighbourhood had such a large and enthusiastic fan base until I had gotten to the venue and witnessed the line of fans and all of the excitement in the crowd myself. The band really and TRULY made the anticipation worth it 100% by giving their audience the greatest concert that they could have put on. If you get the chance to see The Neighbourhood live, make it a priority. They were incredible, the crowd energy was crazy. Jesse's the lead singer vocals were amazing. This band has so much talent and is one of those groups that is just as good, or better, live than they are recorded. The set list was perfect, with a variety of all of their different types of sounds, including some of their new music. The stage setup was pretty cool, there were lots of lights and also a big screen with graphics. The two openers, Hunny and The Bad Suns, sounded great and got the crowd pumped up for the main act. I have been to a lot of really good concerts, this was my ninth one this year, any easily one of my favorites. I honestly cannot put into words how amazing this concert was... I first saw the Neighbourhood in October of 2015 at the house of blues in Boston and I fell in love. It was a little subpar when compared with their studio versions which i still love. However, this show on 6-14-16 at Lupos in Providence was the most awful event I have ever attended. The band was excellent; all of their instruments sounded great. This was not the case for Jesse's voice. Literally every word he said was attuned. I was disgusted beyond the point of second hand embarrassment. It was like seeing a car crash in front of your eyes but having to stay just incase the car caught on fire. If I had to rate this performance on a scale from 1-10 I wouldn't. Please fix this Jesse, I know you have a good voice somewhere inside you. All artists put on an amazing show, very entertaining. Kevin Abstract played some really good songs + had a very theatrical vibe. MOTHXR had an amazing set and sounded very good but they did not move around a lot. The Neighbourhood were great, played a lot of fan favorites. The Neighbourhood also had very cool lights flashing through most of the songs. Last of all, the crowd was amazing!!! I would 100% recommend seeing them to ANYONE. Nonetheless, the performance was awesome. They did a lot of new material that isn't out yet, good stuff though. Now the venue itself is nice, all general admission so you have to come early if you want a good spot. However, people tend to get rowdy and become very annoying with the pushing! Lots of invasion of personal space, and one girl was even digging her nails into my friend to make her move! One girl was dancing and whipping her hair in our faces, trying to annoy us so we would move. But at the end of the day, the concert was worth the money, and I'd probably go back. I love the neighbourhood so much and they did an amazing show at the roundhouse. There was a great atmosphere in the crowed and Jesse looked fab! This is absolutely one the best concerts I've ever been too and it was just an Amazing experience, there new album is amazing and they preformed it so well. My favourite singles from there new album is, daddy issues, greetings from California and cry baby. The rest of there album is also astonishing. Even though it was an incredibly short set barely lasted an hour , The Neighbourhood came with everything they had and truly intoxicated the crowd. Jesse is an incredibly magnetic performer, he allows himself to be swallowed by the music as much as the crowd does. It makes for an amazing experience when the artists are as completely taken by the experience as you are. The bass was lound and the instruments were flawless. I couldn't ask for anything more than a little more time with these guys. Whilst I love their music I must say that my concert experience wasn't that great. The songs sounded very different live far more than the usual amount of change. They are a lot more fun to listen to on your phone. They also didn't really communicate with the audience at all, they actually didn't even properly say goodbye and just left the stage after an hour so it wasn't long either. The crowd wasn't satisfied. I would not spend money to see them again because it's no fun to watch them perform. Overall it was a good concert. I was sad that they didn't perform Ferrari well since that was my favorite song by them. I think he was singing too close to the mic so his words weren't clear while he was singing. As the night went on, the songs got a lot better. However the openers were not good at all. I was surprised that they weren't even close to the same genre as the neighbourhood. Amir obe was not good, he used autotune and he had 3 words in every song that he would just repeat. To be honest, I wasn't super into The Neighbourhood when I went to see them. I went to the concert to accompany my sister. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. Their live show was amazing vocals, instrumentals, background videos, lights, everything! The Neighbourhood was AWESOME live and I left the venue as a fan of theirs instead.
