When they stepped up to arenas, they added more production and continued the basic ‘independence’ theme.Īt the start of Emotional Roadshow in May, Daniel and Tyler decided to spec the Robes, adding 56 x BMFL Spots and 12 x BMFL Blades, 68 Pointes, 14 LEDWash 1200s and 28 LEDWash 600s to the plot.
On last fall’s BlurryFace tour they played some venues without flying or rigging, so they devised a custom ground package that could extend up to 16 feet and be totally independent of any top rigs that happened to be present. Lighting director Tyler Shapard – who is on the road with the tour - and video director Chris Schoenmen from Tantrum who creates the show visuals, all evolved the aesthetic for “Emotional Roadshow” under the creative direction of Mark C. TØP’s Tyler Joseph has always taken a creative lead in the shows explained Daniel, with the team around him interpreting this vision. The hyperactive pair also run Glow Motion, devoted to the development of esoteric tech projects and fun wizardry. Taking it from a US trailer tour to a sold-out multiple truck arena / amphitheater world tour, they have spec’d nearly 180 Robe fixtures for the current “Emotional Roadshow.”ĭaniel and Justin’s Nashville-based creative production company Concert Investor is coordinating lighting, sound and video for the tour together with special FX, fabrication, content creation and programming. Production designers Daniel Slezinger and Justin Roddick have embraced this eclectic theatrical mix of spectacle, mood and thought provoking performance since 2012, and the first time they saw TØP play at 12th & Porter, a Nashville club they owned at the time.
