The crowd fills the stands at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre, patiently awaiting the night香蕉视频直播檚 entertainment.

Lights brighten the stage, and the crowd erupts into uproarious applause as City and Colour, Dallas Green, appears and makes his away across the stage. He immediately picks up his acoustic, and the crowd goes wild as Green begins strumming to the beat of Little Hell.

Dallas Green, also known as City and Colour, played a sold-out, 19 song acoustic set at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre April 13. It was Green香蕉视频直播檚 first time performing in Vernon.

The lights dim as Little Hell ends. Seconds later, the lights come back on and Green plays an acoustic rendition of Fragile Bird before weaving seamlessly into Friends.

Finally, Green pauses between songs.

香蕉视频直播淭hank you for doing this Dallas,香蕉视频直播� yells someone in the audience.

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 not going to lie,香蕉视频直播� says Green. 香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 doing it for myself. I香蕉视频直播檓 just glad you guys are enjoying it.香蕉视频直播�

Green utilizes his older material, playing only a handful of songs from City and Colour香蕉视频直播檚 most recent release (If I Should Go Before You).

Like Knives ends, and Green invites out his old friend, Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 Matt Kelly.

As the duo serenades the audience, eight orange orbs ignite at the back of the stage. After they jam out a few more tunes, Christmas lights are flicked on at their feet, creating the illusion of candles surrounding the musicians as they play an intimate show.

Kelly plays eight tracks with Green up until Lover Come Back.

香蕉视频直播淧lay some Alexisonfire,香蕉视频直播� shouts a man in the back of the auditorium. It was his first interruption of the night.

香蕉视频直播淲oah, bud. Calm down,香蕉视频直播� says Green.

香蕉视频直播�As Much As I Ever Could,香蕉视频直播� yells another.

香蕉视频直播淐ool your jets,香蕉视频直播� says Green.

He finishes his 15th song of the night, As Much As I Ever Could, before standing up and exiting stage right.

The crowd is animated as they cheer and whistle in hopes of bringing City and Colour back for more.

A roadie walks on stage, carrying the guitar he had just taken off stage. The crowd is louder than ever as Green walks back to his chair and picks up the guitar.

香蕉视频直播�10 more songs,香蕉视频直播� booms the crowd.

香蕉视频直播淲ell, maybe not that many,香蕉视频直播� laughs Green.

Green plays Coming Home for his 16th song, and transitions into Alexisonfire香蕉视频直播檚 This Could Be Anywhere In The World, seemingly to please the man at the back.

Green pulls out a harmonica.

香蕉视频直播淯sually when I write songs I香蕉视频直播檓 pretty selfish,香蕉视频直播� says Green. 香蕉视频直播淏ut this song I wrote attempting to help people. If you香蕉视频直播檙e picking up what I香蕉视频直播檓 putting down, this one香蕉视频直播檚 for you.香蕉视频直播�

As Against The Grain ends, Green calls Kelly back on stage.

香蕉视频直播淗ow have you been?香蕉视频直播� Green asks.

香蕉视频直播淕辞辞诲.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淣ot much has changed.香蕉视频直播�

The duo powers through The Girl, and the crowd loves it.

香蕉视频直播淟ast song. If you know it, sing it with us.香蕉视频直播�

The crowd, Green, and Kelly belt City and Colour香蕉视频直播檚 Sleeping Sickness.

Green waves to the audience as the lights come on and he walks off the stage to a standing ovation.

香蕉视频直播淭hank you very much, everybody, for coming to the first City and Colour tour in Vernon.香蕉视频直播�
