Xutos & Pontapés, Extreme, Evanescence, Scorpions 2024-06-15 Rock In Rio, Lisbon

Sat, June 15, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Rock In Rio (Parque Tejo)

It was a sold out show with 80.000 people.

Saw Xutos & Pontapés (for the 4th time, all in Rock In Rio editions: 2004, 2012, 2016 and now 2024) now with Orquestra Filarmónica Portuguesa live.
Saw Extreme (for the 3rd time) live. The "Thicker Than Blood Tour 2024".
I went to Rock In Rio especially to see Evanescence (for the 3rd time) live. The "The Bitter Truth" Tour.
And also saw Scorpions (for the 1st time) live. The "Love at First Sting 40th Anniversary" Tour.

I arrived at Rock In Rio at 6 am. Sunny day. I went to the road to the main entrance to enter later, waiting that somebody else came. Around 7 or 8 am people start arriving.

After waiting for a few minutes on the main entrance we got in. We got inside at 1 pm. We had to run to be checked by the police. And after that we had to run again to the main entrance where they checked our tickets. A lot of people ahead of us taking photos, making videos and trying to give us "things". And then we had to run again already inside to go to Palco Mundo.
At 1:05 pm I was already on front row on the right side of the stage in the place where I wanted to stay.

Finally I could rest on a sunny and windy day with the river on my left.

Scheduled times next.
13:00 General doors
To start (1st band) at 16:00 -> Xutos & Pontapés with Orquestra Filarmónica Portuguesa -> End at 17:00
To start (2nd band) at 18:00 -> Extreme -> End at 19:00
To start (3rd band) at 20:00 -> Evanescence -> End at 21:15
To start 22:15 -> Show 20 Years -> End at 22:30
To start (4th band) at 22:30 -> Scorpions -> End at 00:00
00:00 Show ends

The first band on stage was Xutos & Pontapés with Orquestra Filarmónica Portuguesa. They played for 56 minutes (16:00 - 16:56).

Saw them for the 4th time, all in Rock In Rio editions:
2004/05/30 (with Seether, then Xutos, Charlie Brown Jr., Kings Of Leon, Evanescence and Foo Fighters),
2012/06/03 (Kaiser Chiefs, James, then Xutos and Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band),
2016/05/19 (Rock In Rio-The Musical, Stereophonics, then Xutos and Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band)
and now 2024 live. This was a special show that Xutos & Pontapés had already thought about a few years ago and it was finally possible to come to fruition.

It was nice, a little different with the orchestra. Xutos & Pontapés were happy. The orchestra conductor was always jumping from one side to the other, it was cool to see.
I will write here the setlist:


01. Abertura (Medley Instrumental - Orquestra Filarmónica Portuguesa)
02. À minha maneira
03. Fim de semana
04. Enquanto a noite cai
05. Avé Maria
06. Remar remar
07. Contentores
08. Circo de feras
09. Homem do leme
10. Para ti Maria
11. Para sempre
12. A Minha Casinha


The second band was Extreme. They played for 59 minutes (18:03 - 19:02).

It was amazing to finally be able to see them again. Last time I saw them live was 30 years ago:
1992/11/06 (with Joker, Thunder and then Extreme) in Pavilhão Dramático de Cascais, Cascais,
1994/06/12 (Extreme and Aerosmith) in Praça de Touros de Cascais, Cascais,
and now 2024 live.

I love the show. Gary Cherone the vocalist always jumping around from one side of the stage to the other. And Nuno Bettencourt always amazing with his guitars.
Extreme are a band from Boston, USA.
When Extreme played "We Will Rock You" by Queen Nuno arrived with a Benfica hat, his heart club.
Nuno spoke portuguese a few times during the show.
One time he said "I went to the United States of America when I was four years old. When I return to the Azores, to Portugal, everyone says that's where I'm happiest". This was just before a magic moment when a Portuguese flag fluttering on the screen on the stage. And Nuno started playing an acoustic version of the national anthem (Portuguesa), which made the audience join in in unison and sing the lyrics.
After this incredible moment Nuno started playing with his guitar "More Than Words" and Gary Cherone joined in to sing. Of course, the audience sang along to these amazing lyrics.

I will write here the setlist:


01. It ('s a Monster)
02. Decadence Dance
03. #REBEL
04. Am I Ever Gonna Change
05. Play With Me (with Queen's "We Will Rock You" intro)
06. Hole Hearted
07. Midnight Express
08. A Portuguesa (Nuno Bettencourt played an instrumental version of Portugal's national anthem as the crowd sang)
09. More Than Words
10. Flight of the Wounded Bumblebee
11. Get the Funk Out
12. RISE


In bold are the videos I made.

Saw them for the 3rd time. The other times I saw them were:
2004/05/30 (with Seether, Xutos & Pontapés, Charlie Brown Jr., Kings Of Leon, then Evanescence and Foo Fighters) in the first editon of Rock In Rio in Lisbon, Portugal,
2022/12/12 (with Tigress and Evanescence) in Campo Pequeno, Lisbon,
and now 2024 live.

They started playing still on a sunny day and they finish still on day time but with no sun and almost night.
I love the show. Amy Lee with her amazing voice. Always running around from one side of the stage to the other. Even sang a few songs on the piano like usual.

I will write here the setlist:

Before the last band, Rock In Rio show us the celebration of 20 years of Rock in Rio here in Lisbon in the screens and with fireworks. They call it Show 20 Years. It took 8 minutes (22:20 - 22:28).

Was cool to see the memories in videos of bands and singers that they had in the last 20 years on the Rock in Rio stages here in Lisbon.

The fourth band was Scorpions. They played for 96 minutes (22:31 - 00:07 and encore 23:50 - 23:53).

Scorpions perform a 17-song set at Rock in Rio Festival, 15 songs plus 2 on the encore.
It was my first time watching them. Happy to see them here in Rock In Rio finally.

Current members:

Rudolf Schenker – rhythm, lead and slide guitar, backing vocals (1965–present)
Klaus Meine – lead vocals (1970–present)
Matthias Jabs – lead and rhythm guitar, backing vocals (1978–present)
Paweł Mąciwoda – bass, backing vocals (2003–present)
Mikkey Dee – drums (2016–present)

Amazing how Klaus Meine has already 76 years old. He moves very slow but stil has an amazing voice.
It was a great rock show. Voice, guitars, drums were awesome. Cool to see the guitar players always running around the stage.
I made a few videos of my favorite songs, will add them below the setlist.

I will write here the setlist:


01. Coming Home
02. Gas in the Tank
03. Make It Real

30 Seconds To Mars 2024-05-29 Altice Arena, Lisbon

Wed, May 29, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Altice Arena

The tour of 30 Seconds To Mars is: "Seasons Tour".
It was my 7th 30 Seconds To Mars show.
The concert was awesome. With Jared Leto, Shannon Leto and Stephen "Stevie" Aiello - bass, guitars, keyboards, backing vocals (2013–present).

From Wikipedia: Seasons Tour

The Seasons Tour is the seventh world tour by American rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars in support of their most recent album It's the End of the World, But It's a Beautiful Day. It was announced on November 9, 2023 just after frontman Jared Leto became the first person to legally climb the Empire State Building in New York City. It began on March 14, 2024 in Santiago, Chile at Lollapalooza and will end on September 19, 2024 in Auckland, New Zealand. The first non-festival show of the tour is in Krakow, Poland.

I arrived at the Altice Arena at 05:40 am.
First one to arrive.
We queue on the shadow of the trees just a few meters outside the pavillion. Cool day with friends.
At 6:30 pm we got in. I was a little worried because I didn't know how many VIPs with early entry there were. But I got lucky. I saw occupied spaces on the right side of the catwalk but in front of the catwalk it was almost all empty. I was 1 or 2 meters away from the middle in front of the catwalk that had some stairs.

Before "30 Seconds To Mars" in Altice Arena, played Jaguar Twin, he played 31 minutes.

I had never heard of him. I didn't really like what I heard. He was sincere in some situations but his music isn't really my thing.

You can check all the details of the show in the setlist below.

Here it is the setlist:


01. The Circle
02. Down To You
03. Life is good
04. I Like To Party
05. Happy Face
06. Great Time To Be Human
07. Loser
08. Bad Feeling (Oompa Loompa)

Finally was time for 30 Seconds To Mars. They played 119 minutes (93 minutes + encore of 26 minutes) with a 6 minute break before the encore.

It was a great show. Jared Leto, Shannon Leto and Stephen "Stevie" Aiello.
Jared Leto always moving everywhere. A lot of energy. Jared speaking some Portuguese every now and then is always cool.
On "Closer To The Edge" the final song Jared called on stage the fans. This time I was lucky. And got in to the stage. Just went to the middle of the stage to see everything. Always a cool experience. I saw Jared, even Shannon just in front of me. And Steve also passed by me on the stage.
Crazy moments. Took a few photos, crazy photos from the stage. Amazing memories that will stay forever.

Here it is the setlist:



Countdown Intro
Avalanche (the band entered through the crowd)
01. Up in the Air (extended bridge)
02. Kings and Queens (extended intro; 2015 ending)
03. Walk on Water
04. Rescue Me (extended intro; with fans on stage)
05. Seasons (acoustic intro)
06. Hail to the Victor (with guitar solo by Stevie)
07. Hurricane (Monolith Tour version)
08. This Is War (chant intro)
Interlude

09. Alibi (until 2nd chorus; sing a-long outro; w/ Stevie)
10. From Yesterday (no bridge; w/ Stevie)

Taylor Swift 2024-05-24 Estádio da Luz, Lisbon

Fri, May 24, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Estádio da Luz

The tour of Taylor Swift is: "The Eras Tour".
It was my 1th Taylor Swift show.

I arrived at Estádio da Luz at 06:00 am. Went to the VIP 1 entrance outside the Stadium Area, on the gate. Went inside at 07:15 am to the VIP Stage left and right queue together.
I had the VIP 1 Front Stage Esquerdo (It's Been a Long Time Coming Package). My gate to go in the left side of the stage was 26. The 25 was to the right VIP Stage tickets.
At 03:25 pm we got inside. First we went through a police check and then run to the gate 26. Got in the 26 and run again to get in the left side of the stage.
The time we got in was with a little delay. And the general doors also opened later. A big mess outside the stadium with thousands of people wanting to get in. And I know a lot of people had to run outside to get in. Many fans were late to get in and even lost the first band "Paramore" I'm thinking of my niece who only got in 10 minutes before Taylor Swift started. She went to the "Bancada Piso 3".

Scheduled times next.
15:00 VIP early entry
16:00 General doors
18:15 Show was scheduled to start -> Paramore
19:30 Show was scheduled to start -> Taylor Swift
22:45 Show ends

Before "Taylor Swift" in Estádio da Luz, played Paramore, they started at 19:03 and played 45 minutes. Played a set of 9 songs.

Current members

Hayley Williams[a] – lead vocals (2004–present), keyboards (2006, 2012–present)
Taylor York – guitar (2009–present; touring 2007–2009), keyboards (2012–present), backing vocals (2017–present)
Zac Farro – drums, percussion (2004–2010, 2017–present), keyboards (2017–present), backing vocals (2007, 2017–present)

Current touring musicians

Joey Howard – bass, backing vocals (2015–present)
Logan MacKenzie – keyboards, guitar (2017–present)
Joseph Mullen – percussion, drums (2017–present)[300]
Brian Robert Jones – guitar, backing vocals (2022–present)

I liked to see them for the 1st time. I missed when they come here a long time ago. But was cool to see them now. Hayley Williams always so freaking cool. She went to the stage with her eyes painted with dark colours. Very cool.

You can check all the details of the show in the setlist below.

Here it is the setlist:


01. Hard Times
02. Burning Down the House (Talking Heads cover)
03. Still Into You
04. Caught in the Middle
05. Told You So
06. The Only Exception
07. Misery Business
08. Ain't It Fun
09. This Is Why

Finally was time for Taylor Swift. She started at 20:15 and played 200 minutes (3 hours and 20 minutes). Played a set of 45 songs.

It was an amazing show. I loved the concert. Incredible to see all of this eras (albums) coming together in one big show. A lot of memories.

Telling a little of how I started to love Taylor Swift and her music:
The first video I ever saw from Taylor Swift was "Love Story" in 2009 and love the video and the song.
Then "Speak Now" the album was out, also I love it. I bought the blu-ray "Speak Now World Tour – Live". I still remember to see that concert so many times.
Then "Red" album with all those amazing songs. Still one of my favorite albums.
When "1989" album was out I think that was the one that made me love her. The complete album is a masterpiece. Still my Taylor Swift favorite album.

About this concert in Lisbon. Was freaking amazing to see The Eras Tour in my hometown, Lisbon, Portugal. I was waiting for so many years to see her live. Finally she decided to come here. I bought my ticket in July 12, 2023. About 10 months ago. I wanted so much to buy tickets for both shows. I tried the codes but no lucky in those. I made it to buy the VIP for the 1st show. Was very happy about that for sure, to see her in my city. And when I tried to the 2nd show was all sold out, with no chances of getting any ticket.

I will never forget this concert. Amazing memories. Watching "Cruel Summer" live was really incredible, to see everyone singing the song, always one of my favorite songs. This was from the "Lover" era.
Especially this part.

"I'm drunk in the back of the car
And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Said, "I'm fine, " but it wasn't true
I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And I snuck in through the garden gate
Every night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
And I screamed for whatever it's worth
"I love you, " ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?
He looks up grinning like a devil

It's new, the shape of your body
It's blue, the feeling I've got
And it's ooh, whoa, oh
It's a cruel summer
It's cool, that's what I tell 'em
No rules, in breakable heaven
But ooh, whoa, oh
It's a cruel summer
With you"

Believe me, to hear this with a million people singing at the same time is really incredible.

The next eras on stage were "Fearless" from 2008, "Red" from 20212 and "Speak Now" from 2010.

These were the albums that made me like her more. And was the time I started to buy her CDs.
I made the videos from this 2 albums. Amazing to see this songs live. "Love Story" the first song that I ever heard and saw the video from Taylor.
"Fearless" and "You Belong With Me" the songs I heard many times when they were out. And to see them live were amazing.
The songs from the "Red" era are all amazing specially "All To Well", one of my favorite songs. And to see live the 10 minute version is really incredible. To see everyone sing the song at the same time: again, amazing. In the video I made of "All To Well" more or less in the middle of the video someone knocked my phone. But I got to it again and continue filming.

On the "Speak Now" era we only got 1 song. But 1 amazing song: "Enchanted". She took out of this setlist one of my favorite songs "Long Live".

"Reputation" era was next. I love the "...Ready for It?". To see this live was another epic moment.

"In the middle of the night, in my dreams
You should see the things we do, baby
In the middle of the night, in my dreams
I know I'm gonna be with you, so I take my time
Are you ready for it?"

Knew I was a robber first time that he saw me
Stealing hearts and running off and never sayin' sorry
But if I'm a thief, then he can join the heist, and
We'll move to an island, and
And he can be my jailer, Burton to this Taylor
Every love I've known in comparison is a failure
I forget their names now, I'm so very tame now
Never be the same now, now

I, I, I see how this is gon' go
Touch me and you'll never be alone
I-Island breeze and lights down low
No one has to know (No one has to know)"


Next the folkmore double era. The joining of two eras: "Folklore" and "Evermore", both from 2020.

Seeing that cabin on the main stage was really cool. That 3 minute standing ovation after "Champagne Problems" was awesome. We could see that Taylor was really happy and surprised.

"1989" era was next. My favorite album.

So cool to see this songs live. "Style" "Blank Space" "Shake It Off" "Wildest Dreams" "Bad Blood".
"Wildest Dreams" is always one of my favorite Taylor Swift songs. Love this so much. And to see this live was realy awesome. I made a video where I joined this song with "Bad Blood".

It was great to see the new album being included in the concert setlist: "The Tortured Poets Department". This was next. This album have some amazing lyrics. Taylor with her genious brain could write the best things possible.

One of my favorite songs is "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?". Love this lyric and song and the portuguese people singing along was incredible.
Love to see Taylor singing with great power and determination this in a platform that went all over the stage.
In the moving platform singing this was really fantastic. It was like something out of a movie:

"… So I leap from the gallows and I levitate down your street
Crash the party like a record scratch as I scream
"Who's afraid of little old me?"
I was tame, I was gentle 'til the circus life made me mean
"Don't you worry, folks, we took out all her teeth"
Who's afraid of little old me?
Well, you should be

… You should be
(You should be) You should be
'Cause you lured me (you should be)
And you hurt me (you should be)
And you taught me

… You caged me and then you called me crazy
I am what I am 'cause you trained me
So who's afraid of me?
Who's afraid of little old me?
Who's afraid of little old me?"


Another awesome moment of this album. Other of my favorite songs was "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived". This was one of the best momemnts of the night. Hearing everyone singing this song with Taylor.
When the drums appear on stage was epic. A lot of people with drums going higher and higher while taylor was singing:

"Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?
Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?
In fifty years, will all this be declassified?
And you'll confess why you did it
And I'll say, "Good riddance"
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden
I would've died for your sins
Instead, I just died inside
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars
You crashed my party and your rental car
You said normal girls were boring
But you were gone by the morning
You kicked out the stage lights
But you're still performing

And in plain sight you hid
But you are what you did
And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive
The smallest man who ever lived"


Then, was time for the surprise songs.

Time for what comes next. And we got a few "1st time playing" live.

"Come Back…Be Here" (Red album 2012) / "The Way I Loved You" (Fearless album 2008) / "The Other Side of the Door" (Fearless album 2008)
With spoken intro, mashup on guitar and tour debut for “The Way I Loved You”.

"Come Back…Be Here" and "The Way I Loved You" simply amazing songs. We got only a little of "The Other Side of the Door".

Then was "Fresh Out the Slammer" (from the new TTPD album).
Also a live debut, on piano, with "High Infidelity" outro.
I love this song. Epic lyric.

"Now, pretty baby, I'm running back home to you
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)

Another summer taking cover, rolling thunder
He don't understand me
Splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter
He was with her in dreams

Gray and blue and fights and tunnels
Handcuffed to the spell I was under
For just one hour of sunshine
Years of labor, locks and ceilings
In the shade of how he was feeling
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time

Now pretty baby, I'm running back home to you
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)"


And finally the last era of the show. The "Midnights" era is coming from the 2022 album.

This is just a happy album. Awesome cool pop songs.
We got 7 songs. They are all cool in their own way.
Finishing the show with "Karma" with confettis and fireworks to end the show on the best way possible.

Review: The Warning conquer the Portuguese public with an epic night at LAV – Lisboa Ao Vivo

After a long wait, the band formed by sisters Dany, Pau and Ale Villarreal - The Warning - performed for the first time in Portugal, with a memorable rock concert at LAV - Lisboa Ao Vivo.

Per Jolu (João Luis) April 6, 2024

It was last Friday that the Mexican trio – The Warning – made their debut in Portugal, with an absolutely breathtaking night of rock, in which the band showed, together with Conquer Divide, the “girl power” that exists in the world of heavy music.

Before the doors opened, some anxiety was already felt, with different groups of fans marking their place in the queue, armed with flags and posters asking, for example, for Pau's drumsticks or Dany's pick.

At 9pm, the 5 members of Conquer Divide, from the United States, United Kingdom and Canada, took to the stage to open the night. With a performance that did not exceed half an hour of concert and focused mainly on the band's latest album – “Slow Burn”, from 2023 –, the group had the desire to create moshpits from the first songs. However, the audience, made up of several families with children (and who were not exactly looking for a metal concert), did not respond to this request, compensating with lots of jumping and rhythmic clapping, particularly in “Paralyzed” and “NEWHEAVEN ”. To close the concert, with the theme “welcome to paradise” over, the band replaced the traditional “horns up” with hearts, launching a chain of love from the stage to the end of the audience.

Setlist – Conquer Divide:

  1. Atonement
  2. chemicals
  3. Eyes Wide Shut
  4. Paralyzed
  5. system_failure
  6. NEWHEAVEN
  7. welcome2paradise

After waiting for around 30 minutes, the lights went down and, with “ The Warning ” written on the screen behind the stage, “Intro 404” (opener of the latest album – “ERROR”, from 2022) began to be heard, alongside sound of which Dany, Pau and Ale Villarreal entered to take their places, leaving the audience in euphoria, who shouted the name of the band and each of the members.

For their debut on Portuguese soil, the Mexican band brought songs from all their albums – the aforementioned “ERROR”, “Queen of the Murder Scene” (2018) and “XXI Century Blood” (2017), leaving out the EP “ESCAPE THE MIND” (2015) and the highly acclaimed cover of “Enter Sandman” (2021). In addition to the aforementioned discography, all the songs from the album “Keep Me Fed” were also presented, scheduled for release on June 28th of this year.

It was precisely with one of these new songs that The Warning made themselves heard for the first time in Lisbon, opening the concert with “S!CK”. From then on, the young band went through the lineup at full speed, with absolutely impressive mastery – from Ale's admirable bass lines, to Dany's incredible voice and technical skill on the guitar, to Pau's voice while playing. Drums with the expertise that earned her the 2023 rock drummer of the year award from Drumeo.

After practically 1 hour of moments that will remain in memory, such as Pau's voice at the beginning of “Survive” or the combination of the three sisters' voices (highlighting Dany's high note) at the entrance to the last chorus of “Hell You Call A Dream”, the band would close the concert in an epic way with “Narcisista”. However, the public asked for more and the group returned to the stage to say goodbye to Lisbon with “EVOLVE”.

After the concert, characterized by an atmosphere of affection from both sides, between the audience and the band, there will certainly be a feeling of longing for this rock night and the desire for it to happen again soon.

Setlist – The Warning:

  1. S!CK
  2. Z
  3. CHOKE
  4. What else do you want?
  5. Dull Knives (Cut Better)
  6. MORE
  7. MONEY
  8. Survive
  9. Automatic Sun
  10. ERROR
  11. DISCIPLE
  12. Hell You Call A Dream
  13. MARTYRDOM
  14. Narcissist
  15. EVOLVE

Thanks: Everything Is New

The Warning 2024-04-05 LAV - Lisboa ao Vivo - Sala 1, Lisbon

Fri, April 5, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ LAV - Lisboa Ao vivo - Sala 1

The tour of The Warning is: "Europe Tour 2024".
It was my 1th The Warning show.

I arrived at LAV at 01:55 pm. It was a windy hot sunny afternoon. General doors opened at 20:00 and show was scheduled to start at 21:00.
I had the VIP Meet & Greet ticket so I had some different times.
18:00 VIP check-in opens
18:25 VIP check-in closes
18:30 VIP Meet & Greet
19:15 Early access to merchandise shop
Sometime between 19:40 and 19:55. Early Entrey customers will be escorted to the standing area
20:00 General doors
21:00 Show starts -> Conquer Divide - The Warning

A little after 6pm when we entered they put us in line for the meet & greet with the band. I bought the CD "Error" and then at the meet & greet the 3 sisters signed the CD for me. I told them that I started to listen to their music when I found out their cover videos when they were younger around 2020/2021. They cover the big bands like Metallica, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses and others. And then I went to investigate their YouTube channel where I discovered all the videos, including rehearsals and live performances. And they thank me, they were happy. I also told them I would love to see them again in the future in a big arena in my city. Daniela also thank me and said that would be awesome.

After the meet & greet I went to buy on the merchandise store an offical tshirt by The Warning. And after that I got out again and queue again outside the venue. I was front on the queue again. We got inside around 19:50 before the general people (20:00). I entered and went directly to the middle of the first row. I wanted to be in the middle to see Paulina (the drummer) in front. Daniela was playing guitar on my right and Alejandra playing bass on my left.

Before "The Warning" in LAV, played Conquer Divide, they started at 20:59 and played 30 minutes. Played a set of 7 songs.

Members:
Current:
Kiarely "Kia" Castillo – clean vocals (2013–2018, 2020–present)
Kristen Sturgis - Rhythm guitar (2013-present)
Isabel "Izzy" Johnson – lead guitar (2014–2018, 2020–present)
Samantha "Sam" Landa – drums (2020–present)
Touring:
Madison Moon – unclean vocals (March 2024–present)

I only knew about them on April 1st (4 days before the show) when I received my "The Warning" email with the VIP instructions (schedule of the concert day). And the name "Divide Conquer" is there opening for The Warning.
I went looking for their youtube channel to see any videos they might have released. Just to get a feeling of their sound.
I enjoyed seeing them live. Always happy and very lively. Trying to talk to the public.

Info of the band from wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conquer_Divide

The band was formed in Michigan by guitarist and songwriter Kristen Sturgis along with Suzie Reagan. The lineup initially began as a five-piece with the addition of bassist Sarah Stonebraker, drummer Tamara Tadic, and singer Kiarely Castillo in 2013. On March 1, 2014, Conquer Divide announced that they had recruited Liverpool-based YouTube guitarist Izzy Johnson to become a member, making it a six-piece. A short time later, Suzie was let go and replaced by Texas-based vocalist Janel Duarte. Although their official biography featured on the Artery Recordings website states that they were formed in 2013, the concept for the band had existed since about 2005, according to their producer Joey Sturgis.

You can check all the details of the show in the setlist below.

Here it is the setlist:


01. Atonement
02. Chemicals
03. Eyes Wide Shut
04. Paralyzed
05. system_failure
06. NEWHEAVEN
07. welcome2paradise

Finally was time for The Warning. They started at 22:00 and played 65 minutes. Played a set of 15 songs.

It was spectacular. I loved the concert. They were always very excited. Daniela said some things in Portuguese, she once said that how was it possible that they had only just come to Portugal for the first time. Daniela spoke in spanish a lot of the times between songs. But we portuguese understand them well.
Daniela is always excited about the Portuguese public. I liked the faces that Daniela made from time to time in amazement at us.
Paulina is also always happy with us and amazed by our reactions to the songs.
I loved to see Paulina sing "Narcisista". She is amazing playing drums and singing at the same time. I love Paulina's determination on the drums.
Alejandra always very cool, in her style. But moving really well with the bass.

The band members are:

Daniela "Dany" Villarreal Vélez, 24 (born January 30, 2000) – guitars, lead and backing vocals, piano (2013–present)
Paulina "Pau" Villarreal Vélez, 22 (born February 5, 2002) – drums, backing and lead vocals, piano (2013–present)

And the video:


At the end of the concert when I was leaving the venue I found out Sam (the drummer of Conquer Divide) on the audience and I talked to her a little. Very friendly and nice.
I went again to The Warning merchandising place and bought the LP "Error" signed by the 3 sisters before the show.
And notice that the band Conquer divide was also in a merchandising spot selling some stuff. I went there and bought their last CD "Slow Burn" and all the 5 members signed it. Was very cool. I talked a little with Kia (the main vocalist of Conquer Divide) and told her I like to see them and that I only knew them for about 4 days. But went to look for their youtube channel and saw their videos. She was happy and gave me the signed CD.

Depeche Mode 2024-03-19 Altice Arena, Lisbon

Tue, March 19, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Altice Arena

The tour of Depeche Mode is: "Memento Mori Tour".
It was my 2nd Depeche Mode show. My 1st one was in July 11, 1993 in the old Estádio José de Alvalade, Lisbon (31 years ago).

I arrived at Altice Arena at 06:00 am. It was a windy, sunny day. Doors opened at 19:00 and Depeche Mode was scheduled to start at 21:30.

Before "Depeche Mode" in Altice Arena, played Suzie Stapleton, she started at 20:29 and played 31 minutes.

Members:
Suzie Stapleton
Gavin Jay
Jim Macaulay
Dave Collingwood
Gareth Skinner

I never heard of them before. But I like their sound.

Info of the band from the Official site:
Suzie Stapleton Official site

"Suzie Stapleton is an alternative rock artist. She is known for electric live performances, and poetry-strewn, guitar-driven noir soundscapes that cross into gothic-blues and alt-folk."

"Born and raised in Sydney, Stapleton spent ten years in Melbourne where she began performing and recorded two EPs - “45 Revelations Per Minute” (2008) and “Obladi Diablo” (2012). Stapleton relocated to the UK in 2015 after several European tours and a chance encounter with producer Cypress Grove. Instantly enamoured with her midnight vocal, Grove invited Stapleton to record some backing vocals for volume 3 of The Jeffrey Lee Pierce Sessions Project (Axels & Sockets, 2014), a labour of love and tribute to The Gun Club’s frontman which has featured Iggy Pop, Mark Lanegan, Thurston Moore and many others over its four volumes.".

Finally was time for Depeche Mode. They started at 21:34 and played 126 minutes (98 mns+Encore 28 mns). Played a set of 22 songs.
