June 24th Panic! at the Disco and Weezer - Bristow, VA

Panic! at the Disco, kicked off my summer concerts. I love Brendon and his creativity! He is in a class all his own!  This was my 11th time seeing the band but it was one of my most  favorite times because I got to take my little 13 year old cousin with me as well! It was great to share this experience with her.  So without further ado:

Who:  Panic! at the Disco and Weezer with Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness
What: Amphitheater Concert
When: June 24th 2016
Where: Jiffy Lube Live, Bristow, VA

Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness started out the evening.  I've been a fan of Andrew since Jack's Mannequin, when he toured with Panic! on the Nothing Rhymes with Circus tour. Andrew put on an amazing set and even played a Jack's Mannequin song, Dark Blue. He was really engaging with the crowd. He even ran through pavilion and up into the lawn for a song! It was great! He ended the performance with Cecilia and the Satellite

Time for Panic! At the Disco!!! They opened the set with "Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time". The entire show was full of energy! No matter how many times I see Brendon, he never ceases to amaze me with how much dedication he puts into each and every show, This tour he brought a horn section and they were great! During "Crazy=Genius" Brendon had a drum off with the touring drummer of Panic! It was great! The guys also covered Bohemian Rhapsody (this is the 3rd time I've seen them perform this song live so I would like a new Queen cover song!)Also, Brendon dedicated "This is Gospel" to Spencer because he has been in recovery for 2 years now (Go Spence!) They closed out the night with Victorious instead of Sins. It was a great performance!

Last but not least, Weezer took the stage! My boyfriend was super excited to see them. The crowd really got into the music and the band was very personable on stage! They played all the popular songs! I was able to sing along with most of the set. They were pretty entertaining! I loved all the backgrounds they played on the monitors. Some were very colorful!  It was a great night and awesome set!

My cousin thoroughly enjoyed the show. Funny story, I ran into an old high school, Sis, she was in the same section, row and our seats were near each other! The last time her and I saw Panic was for her 20th bday and she is turning 25! It was to see the show with my close friends and family!
