Pierce the Veil delivered an unforgettable performance on December 1st in Chicago, marking the second sold-out night of their Jaws of Life tour. You could feel the anticipation from fans throughout the night, and it was evident that this show would be a standout memory for many. The crowd was filled with die-hard fans proudly sporting band merchandise spanning the band’s 16+ year presence, face paint, and even tattoos dedicated to PTV. Opening the show was Destroy Boys, Dayseeker, and L.S. Dunes.

Pierce the Veil finally took the stage amidst a sea of adoring fans holding signs professing their love, and the entire venue immediately erupted. They kicked off the show with "Death of an Executioner" from their latest album, Jaws of Life, seamlessly transitioning into the beloved classic, "Caraphernelia." The setlist showcased their versatility and growth as a band, playing songs from their extensive discography like "Circles," "Pass the Nirvana," "Hold On Till May," "Resilience," and "Hell Above," among others. They ended their show with an encore of “Besitos,” a song that they haven’t included in their setlist for almost 10 years which was a huge treat, and finally their biggest hit “King For a Day”. The chemistry between Vic Fuentes, Tony Perry, Jaime Preciado, and Loniel Robinson was clear, showcasing years of musical fellowship.

As a devoted fan for over 15 years, I have witnessed Pierce the Veil's dedication to making each performance more amazing than the last. They genuinely care about their fans' experience and consistently find ways to make their shows extraordinary. While their American tour concludes on December 8th in their hometown of San Diego, California, fans can look forward to catching them on their European leg of the Jaws of Life Tour in 2024. Make sure not to miss out on this incredible experience!
