10 Years, 1 Night Tour | Kris Allen brings the tour to Indianapolis and Chicago, November 19-20, 2019

After a quick Christmas show in Virginia (thanks, Kris!) and a few days off, it's back to the road for Kris Allen, who heads to Indianapolis on November 19 and Chicago on November 20.

The basic 22 song set list for the tour is in this post. Kris has added Written All Over My Face to that set, and has dropped in a few surprises occasionally (Parachute and Paul Simon). He's also getting brave with doing songs he NEVER does in VIP, like Turn the Pages! Even more awesome, he's occasionally performed a few new songs (More Machine, We Will Change and Whenever You Are Here).

Come back after the shows as I'll put the highlights from these two stops in this post!

Updated November 22 with video from Chicago (including one of his Christmas songs - I suspect his Christmas music will now find its way into set lists), and a fantastic Out Alive from Indianapolis.

Show and List Preview:

This was initially advertised as a college show, but it is open to the public. Trine University is located in NE Indiana, near Ohio. It's within two hours of Fort Wayne, Indiana, Toledo, Ohio and Detroit, Michigan. If you can get there, you should! There are some people on the list heading there from Chicago too. So we should have a good list!

Just an admin note: I'll be away most of Saturday, may or may not have wifi where I'm going. Will be back in time for show though.

Throwback Thursday: August 14/15, A Day for Epic Apparently

On every (well, most) Thursdays we take a look back at Kris Allen's past performances to remember the good times! Since I've been a little remiss lately about this, thought I'd load you up with a few videos.

Usually I start this by searching the date and Kris' name in YouTube. When I did this with August 15, so many goodies came up! So - in reverse chronological order, here's August 15 in Kris Allen World (excluding 2012 and 2013 - nothing to report for these years).

First, August 15, 2011, Clarkston, MI: Kris debuts You Got a Way during a concert opening for Lifehouse! Here's Altrus01's awesome video! (Click here for the setlist and more media.)



Then, August 15, 2010, (well technically August 14 but the videos were uploaded on the 15th!), at the Indiana State Fair, we got this little piece of Kreith goodness from supox30!


This was the first time they performed Jack and Diane together. The Indiana audience did a great job of singing along! And of course at the beginning we get Kris telling Keith he's hot (:DDDDD) and at the end, a big old epic Kreith hug! (Lots more media and the full setlist for Kris here.)

And August 15, 2009? Kris was still touring with the Season 8 Idols, in Hamilton, Ontario! Here's a awesome but terrifying video (when you think about the giant cavernous hole that opens up behind him) from Lupin788 of Kris performing the Killers' All These Things That I've Done!


Enjoy!
