Smoke and Mirrors
Imagine Dragons opened with "Shots" as they brought "Smoke and Mirrors" to life in the opening concert tour at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.The "Smoke and Mirrors" production changed dynamics as each new song was performed. The concert began with band silhouettes behind a curtain and then the smoke and mirrors took over, giving way to a spectacular light show, and colorful imagery on the screens.
Also on tour, were opening acts Halsey and Metric. Halsey, a debut artist, electrified the stage with her blue hair and electro-pop music. Then Metric rocked the arena with their newest hit “The Shade“. Both artists gave spectacular performances and seemed to transcend the audience of bobbing heads into a exhilaration.

As lead singer Dan Reynolds took the stage to ignite the Moda center, the super fans could be seen exploding with excitement, waving hands in the air, and shaking their heads back and forth. It was like they were being transported into an imaginary world of happiness, a world of imagine dragons.
In keeping with tradition, Imagine Dragons performed a cover song. In sharp contrast to the “Tom Sawyer“ the Rush cover on the Night Visions Tour, Smoke and Mirrors feature a touching rendition of Bob Dylan´s “Forever Young“.
Finally, in a spectacular encore, a breathtaking performance of “The Fall“ as red, orange and yellow confetti leaves fell over the audience and lead singer Dan Reynolds.
