My husband and I were at the barricade in the pit for this tour. We found out from some other fans that the bassist had a family emergency so they had to improvise with some recordings. We were front row center and saw his wife and twin boys (they are ADORABLE little blonde boys) playing with toys trying to get on stage with their dad. The experience was magical. He was so theatrical and amazing. "Run" was mind blowing to be there. He saved "Sail" for last, but I also noticed that there were some lyrics that he he left for the audience to sing. He was uncomfortable with singing about "maybe I should kill myself", so he covered his face and let the audience fill in the space. I think he is in a different place now. He is so unique. It was such a pleasure to see them so close. He left the stage a couple times to check on his babies. We love them!

Yup, he will not sing that line live anymore. I’ve been a fan for many years and I love the uniqueness of AWOL. Dance rock, spacey, electronic, weird, and pretty at the same time. Has his own identity. Their new album is great if you haven’t heard it yet. Just came out few days ago!

@@laurensmitter3346 I read that their guitarist, Zach Irons, wasn't able to do the tour and that's why Marc Walloch is on guitar instead. Haven't read anything about why their bassist and keyboardist also aren't there for this tour

I wonder why the bassist and keyboardist aren't there 🤔

[@craigjohnson2259]

EXACTLY! We're going tomorrow night in Austin and we want the whole band!
