Dan Deacon

DAN DEACON IN CONCERT:Indie electronica whiz Dan Deacon has been an emblem of sonic experimentation and no-holds-barred live performances for the past decade. The circuit-bending, beat-mangling, day-glo-loving underground hero’s frenetic live shows are among the most legendary affairs in DIY electronic music. Extensive audience participation, costumed dance contests, and chopped and screwed sounds straight out of a broken arcade game are just a few of the reasons Deacon remains the reigning king of off-the-wall, wtf-worthy concert experiences. Fans of futuristic sounds and blissed-out live performances won’t want to miss him as he continues to unleash electronic music’s wildest, wackiest dance party on tour.

What an incredible show. So much awesome audience participation, and the smartphone app that he made turned all of our phones into part of the light show. What a blast!

He opened for Miley in LA last night and... he was so bad! The audience was so bored and disgusted of the weird hand gestures and jumping. He gave lots of people headaches with this annoying sound and voice effects. He is so weird and needs to give up on his career. Do not recommend unless you want to be weirded out and have a headache.

I have never been to a show where audience participation was at such a premium. A dance off, a tunnel of people holding hands, the hive mind dance and the Wall of Life! This was such a fun and emotional show, I totally recommend anyone with an opportunity and even a passing affinity to electronica to see Dan Deacon at least once!

Fantastic venue and amazing show! Loved the vibe of the whole place and the crowd. Dan Deacon is an amazing performer and really makes the crowd part of the show. One of the most fun concerts I've ever been to, and I didn't even know Dan Deacon previous to the concert!! Great memories

If it isn't on your bucket list, rethink where you are in life. The opening acts were interesting and enjoyable and I would definitely recommend them to others. As for Dan. Experiencing his music live creates an atmosphere uniting a room full of people all there for one purpose; to enjoy Dan's craft. I don't know if it's just the common dispositions of all the people who listen to his music, but everyone seemed to get along before the music started, but as if being tethered together by sound waves, the room meshed together in dance (even interpretive dance) and made the experience fun for all. There's something that happens, it's not religious, it's not patriotic, it's not political, it's not any of those things, but it's something that when you hear the music, see others experiencing the music, and feel the frequencies resonating in your head, it just makes you feel like this is a good place, this is where you want to be. If you don't want that ringing the next few days... stand away from the stage you'll still see all of the crazy light and visual displays, but you better dance!

This was one of the best shows I've been to in a while. The opening acts were incredibly varied and each awesome in their own way. Chester Endersby Gwazda kicked out the tunes pretty hard and Alan Resnick cracked up the audience with his comedy routine. Friends With Hights got everyone warmed up for the main event. Dan Deacon and his ensemble really put on a great show despite the entire tour being very sick. All in all a really fun time!
