Selling-out five nights at Rogers Stadium, global megastar Bruno Mars’ THE ROMANTIC TOUR finally kicked-off last night in Toronto after inclement weather delayed its initial debut this past Saturday. Doing the right thing and putting safety first, Mars rescheduled his original Saturday show to the following Sunday.
The show was two hours of pure electric, as the Singer-Songwriter delivered nothing but hits from his four-album catalog, plus a section devoted to his Anderson .Paak collab under the name Silk Sonic. The crowd was was spared of yet another night of rain and on their feet for the almost two-hour-long show, which was .Paak as DJ Pee .Wee and Leon Thomas helped open.
Mars began the night showcasing newer material including latest single “Risk it All” and “Cha Cha Cha” from his latest effort, THE ROMANTIC, before delving into his catalog a bit further, including “24k Magic”, “Treasure”, before finally debuting his smash hit “I Just Might” in Toronto for the first time ever. His infectious and relentless energy carried the entire show, and vocally he sounded as good as he ever has. After slowing things down a notch with his Silk Sonic-era set with .Paak, Mars finished with a huge bang, saving all his biggest hits for the final act. “Marry You” brought the crowd to a frenzy in an already mood-lifting setlist. Then came a solo version of Lady Gaga duet “Die with a Smile” was presented and he had no issues getting the audience to finish the song. “Just the Way You Are”, his first ever single, “Uptown Funk” closed the show on a high note, before his encore, “Dance With Me”, from his latest disc.
Mars is back at Rogers Stadium Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday to cap off the Toronto leg of his tour.
An absolutely amazing show, no notes. 10 out of 10!
