Dublin… you started LOUD.
A packed venue, vibrating with Louis Tomlinson’s music from the very first second.
As always, the set kicked off with Lemonade, screamed back word for word, with Louis wearing a graphic patch windbreaker (possibly soft salmon… the color debate lives on). Then came a powerful run of On Fire, WAOYF, OOMS, and the ever-reliable Bigger Than Me, carried by a crowd that gave everything.
“Alright Dublin, I’ve got a good feeling about tonight… this is Saturdays.”
With those words, he opened the most intimate part of the show. Saturdays already hits deep, but Dublin got something special: he added The Greatest, and everything exploded.
Then Dark To Light… deeper every single night. A shared feeling between the arena and all of us watching from livestreams. And yes… we miss you, Liam. You’d be so proud of Lou.
Defenceless brought that silence that says everything. And when he asked the crowd to sing, his eyes lit up, hand on his chest, gratitude written all over him.
Back to Stage B with JHO, Lazy, and the incredible Sunflowers. And yes Lou… we KNOW the MV is coming. We are READY 🌻
Phone lights filled the room during Lucid, closing with that signature piano moment and a fan project that read:
“We Got Here Because of YOU.”
And then he gave us one of those speeches that stay with you. Talking about closing his eyes during the first part, joking that people were probably thinking “open your eyes already, Louis”, but then saying how grateful he is to experience moments like that.
And the line that says it all:
“I feel like I can be exactly who I need to be on every show. And that means the f*ing world to me.”**
Louis… we are right here with you.
Then came Jump The Gun, Imposter, and Sanity.
Kill My Mind lit up with wristbands and the deafening chant of NO CONTROL (we KNOW it’s not coming… but we’ll never stop trying 😌).
Followed by Face The Music and a powerful Silver Tongues.
From the loud Olé Olé Olé, straight into The Observer and The Answer.
And the final stretch: Miss You and Palaces.
What a finish. What a night.
Dublin, you were unreal.
See you in Brighton. 🧡💚
