Paramore
Presented by: Solid Entertainment, C4 & The Edge
 “Why did it take us 5 years to get here? Can't wait to come back to New Zealand. Please, dear God, let it be soon. Never had so much fun in 3 days in my whole life. NZ, we'll miss you!” (Hayley Williams on Twitter, March 2010)
Solid Entertainment, C4 and The Edge are delighted to welcome back the hottest band on the planet to their favourite part of the world!
Having played two rapturously received shows earlier in the year PARAMORE loved every moment of their time spent on our shores and in thrilling news for fans and band alike they’re bringing their spectacular new arena show back to New Zealand in October.
PARAMORE will play at Vector Arena on Friday 8th October, NZ’s largest indoor venue. Vector Arena is all ages and licensed events.
PARAMORE 2010 is a worldwide story of sold out tours and a band burning brighter than ever. Everywhere they play they’re filling rooms with their explosive and infectious energy and now, with a recent Green Day European stadium tour under their belts the band are firing like never before - no venue is big enough to contain their force of nature!
The shows earlier in the year bore witness to PARAMORE as one of the most exciting bands of the decade with fans coming face to face with the irrepressible flame haired firebrand that is Hayley Williams. In Hayley PARAMORE have an inspirational front woman like no other. 100% the real deal – with the voice, the presence and performance that has made her one of the most respected musicians of the generation and propelled PARAMORE to stratospheric levels.
This show not to miss (and plenty did earlier in the year with tickets selling out in a flash.) It will also be the first opportunity to see lead guitarist and co-songwriter Josh Farro joining the fun for the first time, having been unable to travel on their last tour due to his wedding arrangements.
In a sense the band have hardly been away – PARAMORE’s album and singles have been riding high in NZ and Hayley Williams has spent much of the last few months on top of the radio and hit charts with a #1 single collaboration with B.O.B. titled ‘Airplanes’.
If you witnessed PARAMORE last time, no doubt you’d be returning to sing along once again and if you missed out last time don’t think twice! Get in quick! Early purchase is advised!
JUST ANNOUNCED: Solid Entertainment is pleased to announce RELIENT K from the USA and our very own The Jury & The Saints are the special guests for Paramore's New Zealand dates.
RELIENT K are a pop rock powerhouse having released a total of five full length albums and perfected the art of making catchy, powerful and emotion laced music. Billboard praised new album Forget and Not Slow Down saying “this may be the BEST album that Relient K has ever put out, period!”
“Few bands play punk-influenced modern rock as proficiently” (SPIN magazine)
“Its smart blend of punk pop and power pop, weaving together influences as diverse as the Beach Boys, Blink-182 and Fountains of Wayne” (The Los Angeles Times)
As Goodnight Nurse and Streetwise Scarlet disbanded, Rowan and Jesse formed The Jury & The Saints and wrote a whole bunch of insanely infectious pop hits in waiting. Scoring the opening spot for Paramore earlier in the year, their onstage adrenalin rush and stage antics hit the spot perfectly with audience and headliners alike. So much so that Paramore extended a personal invitation to play with them across the New Zealand dates upon their return in October!
