The Used & Taking Back Sunday Return to Oklahoma’s Tulsa Theater [Photos]

It was a bustling Thursday night in Tulsa, Oklahoma, when The Used and Taking Back Sunday (TBS) brought their anticipated tour to the Tulsa Theater. Months leading up to this, all of the scene kids were eager with excitement for their heroes to take the stage and sing about relationships and heartbreak. These bands have been on people’s minds for 20 years, and it was the first time seeing them for some.

For this stop, TBS opened up for The Used, which honestly didn’t feel like I’m an opener to me. TBS’s Adam Lazzara was in fantastic form. He sounded great and was dancing and swinging his mic like it was 2007. They also played all of the hits that I wanted to hear, which included classics like “One-Eighty By Summer and “Great Romances of the 20th Century, which I 100 percent probably had as an AIM away message.

Up next for the headline spot of the night was The Used, and they killed it. Bert (McCracken) was full of energy and definitely was feeling the energy coming from the audience. Some of the highlights from their set included them opening a circle pit, and having the audience do a cartwheel contest. The other thing I loved was Bert went to the second story audience and interacted with them.

All in all, it was a stellar night, and both bands sounded fantastic. There was a lot of fan interaction, and it’s definitely something you want to check out if you get a chance to see this tour live.
