Still blown away by Empire of the Sun’s show in San Diego! ✨ Absolutely incredible performance, stunning visuals, and such an amazing atmosphere. Got to experience it all with family and friends, which made it even more special.
Huge thanks to Luke Steele for taking the time to meet and chat with me at the meet and greet. 🙏 Such a memorable experience!
And does anyone know what that new song they opened with was? It was absolutely amazing! 🔥 I can’t stop thinking about it!

Went Friday night and third time seeing Empire. I liked how they reworked some of the songs although in my opinion, I thought Cherry Blossom would’ve been better as they performed it on the last tour.
Had great seats on the second row of section 102. There were only a couple of people surrounding us that seem to be really into the show and dancing. Last year in Houston we did general admission and the overall energy was so amped up and to me that show was a 10/10. This show overall I would rate at a 7/10 on all fronts. I tried getting excited about it a few times and it just didn’t happen. Luke may have been tired from several consecutive nights. I kind of liked that some songs were cut a little short however I expected that would allow more songs to be performed especially since they have so much good material like DNA just to name one. I saw another post saying the show/Luke came across “churchy” and this was definitely the case and to me put a damper on the show. A concert is not where I want to hear someone saying “don’t listen to the news, listen to God”. And there was another interplay with the crowd were he kind of came across as a televangelist . Anyway besides that the show just didn’t seem to have pop to it like the other two shows we have seen.

I’m excited for this limited drop! The tour was awesome! 😎

Anyone else grab a poster or HB specific merch? Pretty, pretty good!

I still can’t stop smiling (and tearing up a little).

A year ago, I managed to snag the very last VIP meet & greet seat Ticketmaster released. I kept it quiet and surprised my partner with it for his birthday. We went last night and I’ve never seen him with such pure, unfiltered happiness.

He’s been grieving the sudden loss of a family member a couple week ago, so seeing him light up the way he did means everything. Decades of your music have brought him so much joy, and last night your graciousness and that incredible show gave him a moment of real happiness when he needed it most.

From the bottom of both our hearts, thank you, [r/Empire](r/Empire)[ofthesun.](r/Empire)

Empire of the Sun is a huge band I'm currently listening to I really like their electronic Duo sound they remind me a lot of you of Erasure and the pet shop boys before them I really love their music.Songs like ' we are the people" *cherry blossom" "half mast" "feeling you get" I plan to buy a new synthesizer within the next couple of weeks this next couple of months and start producing new music. And this current band " Empire of the sun" has really influenced me.

I'm beyond excited for tonight! I saw them last year at ACL and it was so fun.

What time has opening act come on and left and then how much intermission time before EOS?

I don’t typically look at set list before shows, but as there’s been pretty static on this leg of the tour? Saw them in Houston last year and it was fantastic, especially being in GA with a really lively crowd.

I just got back from the hollywood bowl show!! It was sooo fun. But..I can't be the only one noticing the amount of posers and people with lack of etiquette right.. There was a couple behind me that actually talked the WHOLE show.- and talking as in yelling over the music. Literally no one around me was singing along either. Maybe its because I was in section g1 or something!?!? Seeing so many people leave the show early after the "popular" songs got played pained me bad. Soo disrespectful

Going with daughter and she has a purse

Genuine question, what do you even wear to their concerts?? Mine is on Friday and I fr have no idea what to show up in, I’m debating on the white face paint bc my hg said she would do it too but other than that I don’t know what to wear. Any help would be amazing 😔😔

Is anyone else enjoying missing half the show? Cause I am.

heading to LA show but running late, road closure.

Say I got VIP but my friends didn't - Am I able to go back out with them in GA line or will the ticket had already been scanned?

Also bonus question: if I skip the VIP experience entirely, can my vip ticket be used in the GA line as a regular ticket if I were to go directly to it?

Does anyone want to go tonight I have a extra ticket

helloooo i'm meeting luke on friday !! i was planning on having a bunch of empyreans send me letters for him so i can make a book of letters and give it to him... unfortunately life got in the way and i had NO TIME to do that at all
BUT
if you guys have a small message for him please send it to me and ill write it in a card i'll be giving him !!!! :•)
feel welcome to send it to me in a DM or comment it here… also include your name if you feel comfortable doing so🙂‍↕️

You all know what to do!

It was just announced that the Afterlife edition of the Ask That God album will be released for RSD 2026!

So If you missed out at the concerts, you'll get another shot!

Thinking of going to see Empire of the Sun on Thursday at the Hollywood Bowl. Just curious, with the seated sections, is it easy to dance at this venue? Or kind of difficult with the space in between rows?

I’m used to seeing Empire of the Sun in an open GA venue, where space is more accessible and it’s a dance floor with everyone grooving. So trying to set expectations.

I swear I saw recently that somebody had shared a link to a Spotify album where Luke and Nick were just talking about the backgrounds of each song on IOTD. I’m unable to retrace where I saw it on this subreddit and I’m not a Spotify user so I can’t look it up. It also doesn’t show up on YouTube. Does somebody know what I’m talking about? Could you link it?

That was one of the worst shows ever 😭😭😭 Feeling disappointed. They are usually super good!
