The Backspin HQ Perspective
The Gathering is the tour built around Gold, an album Rolling Stone Australia rated four stars, and Australia is getting it at full arena scale after a 14-year gap between headline tours. Backspin saw the production early: Vancouver's Rogers Arena on September 12 was only the fourth show of the run, and the suburban-neighbourhood staging and the Gold Cam built around 'C.E.O.' made it one of the more conceptually complete arena shows of the fall. The 2027 support bill leans on the same era Weezer came up in, with Third Eye Blind and Fountains of Wayne, a contrast to the North American run with The Shins and Silversun Pickups that we covered in San Diego.
