ICYMI: The Weeknd's Sold-Out Dallas Concert Was a Visual Masterpiece.
We've come to know the artist as much for his record-breaking hits as for his aesthetic statements. Who can forget the time he appeared covered in bandages, later to"reveal" a face modified entirely by plastic surgery?
Four fire columns erupted from the runway portion of the two-set stage as “The Hills” led to a moshing response from the crowd. A burning red scene remained on display as the artist born as Abel Tesfaye performed “Often.” Drake’s “Crew Love” turned the hanging moon and cityscape sets into an ominous gold and yellow./ Emerald City of Oz, green display. “Heartless” prompted a sing-along that The Weeknd complimented as the kind of good singing"only Dallas could pull off.
The singer's praise for Dallas fans seemed sincere. Audience members threw flowers on stage and scream-sang his songs back to him. The Weeknd appeared visibly moved by the crowd's energy and paused between songs to thank fans for their loyalty, promising to add two dates in Dallas for his next tour.
