His performance stood out for blurring the line between the stage and the audience. At one point, Yungblud stepped into the crowd while continuing to sing. One of the night’s most memorable moments unfolded when Yungblud noticed a banner from a young fan named Soham requesting a chance to play air guitar on stage. He invited the fan up, turning the spontaneous exchange into a standout highlight of the show.
The emotional high point came towards the end of the set when Yungblud paid tribute to rock icon Ozzy Osbourne. He closed his performance with a heartfelt rendition of Changes.
Yungblud says musicians are fans first
In an exclusive chat with ETimes, the singer insisted that musicians are fans first. He shared, “People forget that on stage I get to watch a show every night. People think they’re coming to see me. I come to see them, too. Musicians are fans first. I get to watch fathers and daughters or fathers and sons find something in common. I get to watch people kiss, friends turn to each other and say they love each other when they’d never normally say it. Music evokes emotion and fearlessness.”
Talking about Lollapalooza Day 2, it promises to be historic. All eyes are on Linkin Park, who are set to make their long-awaited India debut, alongside performances by Kehlani, LANY, Sammy Virji, Bloodywood, Calum Scott, Karsh Kale, OAFF–Savera, and more.
