This performance was notable as it marked the third time the author has seen Twenty One Pilots in Charlotte over six years, highlighting the enduring popularity of the band, whose dedicated fanbase is known as the Skeleton Clique. Fans were treated to a remarkable set list of approximately 28 songs, including hits like “Overcompensate,” “Heathens,” “Stressed Out,” and “Trees.”

The show included several symbolic elements that resonated with dedicated fans, such as a burning car representing Joseph’s oppressed character, Clancy.

Additionally, furry costumes were worn in honor of a creature named Ned, symbolizing Joseph’s creative spirit.

Musical Versatility

Joseph showcased his versatility as an instrumentalist during the concert, playing a variety of instruments. He used a ukulele for “We Don’t Believe What’s on TV,” an electric bass guitar on “Heathens,” traditional piano and an electronic keyboard, a tambourine during “Heavydirtysoul,” and even drums while closing the show with “Trees.” Dun impressed audiences with his powerful drumming, precision, and physical presence.

Throughout the concert, Dun also contributed vocals during the “Drum Show” and harmonized on the popular track “Stressed Out.” The duo’s dynamic performance style created an engaging atmosphere, captivating both hardcore fans and casual concert-goers.

Interactive Experience

Engagement with fans was a significant aspect of the night, as Joseph cosplayed with audience members dressed as Neds and invited a young girl named Emma on stage to perform part of “Ride.” Fans were even given the opportunity to hold up platforms that allowed Joseph and Dun to perform amidst the crowd, creating an immersive experience.

Joseph’s sense of humor added to the light-hearted atmosphere, as he encouraged creativity among fans, suggesting they should keep creating unless it “sucks.” The band also designed visually appealing moments for social media, such as the flaming car and a choreographed audience moment during “Lane Boy,” where the crowd crouched and jumped in sync with the music.
