Attended one last night in Raleigh, NC. Absolutely loved it. Went with my 17 yr old son who loves Hans and that type of music and scores in movies as much as I do (rare to find that). So was extra special and he was over the moon with it as well. Had a small strategic orchestra, band, some vocalists, and himself performed for over 3 hrs with music from Dune I and II, Man of Steele, Dark Knight, Gladiator, Last Samurai, Interstellar, Pirates, and more. He ended the encore with No Time to Die and the whole show with him doing the piano to Time, the ending piece of Inception and the top (which was spinning on the video screen). Unreal.

Minus a few pieces/moments, he had more concert like renditions (guitar, etc) and "rocked" it up more, which was awesome but still true to his work (and only tweaked here and there in others). The Time piece seemed exactly like the original. Im not 100% sure on this, but I believe the vocalists were the originals from the movie recordings (Dune and Gladiator--he specifically talked about her and she was definitely older now-will have to look up). Talent from all performers were off the chart. Interstellar was mentioned by him as one of his favorites and same with the movie-and that performance was amazing as they choreographed the arena with lights like you were in space/galaxy, the spinning when he was trying to dock the ship, and then the "library" scene at the end. Really immersive.

Anyways, sorry for the long post, but for anyone who is fan thought they might like. And gave up my stars so can't post any pics .

Love it. Went to a show probably about 6-7 years ago that totally rocked. That's when I discovered the Tina Guo

Would gladly go to another concert. It was that much fun.

I wanted to take my daughter to the Ft. Worth show but the scalpers ruined it.

Went to Hollywood, FL on Sunday night.

Honestly, it might be the best concert I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot of them.

Just the combination of the amazing light show, world class musicians, and even some fun banter/stories from Hans Zimmer. Everything was awesome.

Also maybe the best guitarist I've ever seen, something Hans himself also corroborated.

My personal high points were the music from Gladiator and The Lion King. Lisa Gerrard and Lebo M are amazing vocal performers.

I spent the day playing at the casino since the show was at the Hard Rock, lost $200, but in my mind it was just $200 surcharge on my ticket and was still more than worth it.

Also, he called Dark Phoenix a piece of **** movie, but said he liked playing the music.

Got a great reaction from the crowd. Honestly I think that movie is solid and there are far worse X-Men movies.

Awesome, he did the same here. Said don't go see the movie, but here is the audio version at least

Also, ditto on your other post. Forget the guitarist name, but he apparently is the S#*$%. And the poster mentioning Tina Guo...yeah she was unreal. But all of them were really.

edit: see now Brian posted the guitarist.

And the lady who did the Dune vocals...holy heck

edit 2: That guitarist broke his string during a massive riff/solo and they were trying to get him another guitar but he never stopped and just ad libbed. We couldn't figure out why Hans and everyone was just watching him and shaking their heads until Hans said what happened afterwards.
