The show took place at HMV Empire in Coventry, a modern venue with a capacity of 1,200. It was a sold-out event, and unlike many gigs, most of the crowd had arrived early, filling the space and creating a lively atmosphere from the very start.
T Truman opened the night with a vintage energy, blending guitar, keyboard, and vocals into a performance that radiated an Elton John-inspired vibe. His high-energy set was consistent throughout, keeping the audience engaged and moving. There was a noticeable connection with the crowd, and it felt like some attendees were there specifically to see him. T Truman’s lively performance perfectly warmed up the audience, setting the tone for the rest of the evening.
Next up was Delivery, a band from Australia that brought an upbeat energy to the stage. Their lineup featured three guitarists (one doubling as a keyboardist), a bassist, and a drummer. While there wasn’t a standout moment during their set, their performance kept the momentum going after T Truman and maintained the crowd’s excitement. Delivery’s high-energy set helped build anticipation for The Vaccines, setting the stage perfectly for the headliners.
The Vaccines took the stage to thunderous cheers, kicking off their set with “Love to Walk Away.” The night was filled with highlights, including fan-favorites like “Wetsuit,” “I Always Knew,” and the iconic “If You Wanna,” which had the crowd singing along with full enthusiasm. While there weren’t any particularly unique moments during the performance, the band’s energy and connection with the audience kept the excitement at its peak.
The encore featured “Lunar Eclipse,” adding a perfect finishing touch to the set and leaving the crowd buzzing as the night came to a close.
