Artists Gray, Loco, DJ Pumkin, Simon Dominic, and Jay Park brought their Follow The Movement AOMG 2016 American tour to the city of Las Vegas on April 13, 2016. Many VIP holders arrived early to the venue to secure their spots in pit and to partake in the benefits of hi-touch and a photo-op with AOMG before the show.
At around 6:35PM the staff began to let fans into the venue. Once inside, they played tracks from the AOMG artists to get the attendees excited for the show. To pass time, two of Siva Group’s staff member came out to hype up the crowd, toss out some light sticks, and even an AOMG hat. Soon after, the light dimmed and the concert began.
Simon Dominic took to the stage and opened with his track “Simon Says” which had the crowd dancing along. After the song he introduced himself in English as well as DJ Pumkin. At one point during his set Simon taught the audience some Korean. He then continued to perform some crowd favorites that included “Simon Dominic” and “Dang Dang Dang.”
Loco then joined Simon Dominic on stage to perform “We Up There 2”. Loco continued his set with “No More” leading into “If I”, where Gray came and joined him. Both Gray and Loco took a moment to introduce themselves and to speak with the fans in both English and Korean as no translator was present. After this, they went on to perform their solos and collaborations including “Summer Night”, “Respect”, and “Just Do It” to which many sang along to!
The lights dimmed and out came Jay Park singing along to his song “2ND THOTS”. After performing “All I Wanna Do” Jay spoke to the audience (through all the screaming and chanting) about the tour and the city. He continuously captivated the crowd with his dancing and had many singing along to his songs including “Solo” and “Mommae.” After awhile, the rest of AOMG joined him on stage to perform together. They all got the crowd hyped as they exuded energy through their performances of “Success Crazed”, “Thinking About You” and others. Jay then told the crowd there was only one song left, but AOMG and the crowd let it all go with their final performance of “I LIKE 2 PARTY”. At the conclusion of the song they said their goodbyes and left the stage.
Once the concert was over, many of the fans still lingered around in case any of AOMG came out for an encore. Some were still dancing in the pit and others were showing their videos and pictures to their friends as they talked about their favorite parts of the concert. Staff even came out onto the stage and threw some used towels and water bottles the guys used during the show.
Throughout the concert the sea of light sticks was a nice sight as well as the name placards and signs the guys would point out as they would look into the crowd. The lighting during the sets was definitely thought out and helped portray the feeling of each song. The energy level was always at an optimal high that could be felt and heard all around, like a party you never wanted to end. AOMG and Siva Group made it a fun experience for everyone that attended and had a successful show!
