Bryan Adams at Rogers Place

Toronto, ON – Platinum selling and Grammy Award winning musician Bryan Adams returns to Canada for a colossal coast-to-coast Canadian tour, in support of his 15 th studio album, released in March 2022, aptly titled So Happy It Hurts .

Widely considered one of the most iconic rock musicians in the world, Bryan Adams has countless accolades and awards including three Academy Award nominations, five Golden Globe nominations and a Grammy Award. Bryan Adams is a Canadian singer / songwriter who continues to tour the world playing his music which has become a mainstay on rock radio.

Adams continues to tour somewhere in the world ten days every month intertwining arena concerts with special, intimate solo acoustic dates. His live concerts have established him as one of the world’s best rock singers of our time.

Bryan Adams, Joan Jett jolt the pulse of rock 'n' roll at US tour opener

bryan adams tour 2022 opening act

BALTIMORE – A cheeky video opened Bryan Adams' show that proclaimed him the savior of rock 'n' roll. Out of the darkness, the man himself appeared in a shard of red light to rumble through "Kick Ass," a rowdy rocker true to its title.

The song is from Adams’ 2022 album, "So Happy It Hurts," and confirmed that 40-plus years into his career, the Canadian hitmaker, while maybe not the savior of rock 'n' roll, deserves much applause for keeping its pulse racing.

On Tuesday, Adams landed at Baltimore's CFG Bank Arena for the launch of the So Happy It Hurts tour, which will hit U.S. arenas through August with Joan Jett & The Blackhearts serving as exceptional openers.

Adams, 63, and his taut four-piece band including longtime guitarist Keith Scott, began their world voyage in January 2022 with a spate of dates in Asia and Europe. The muscularity that comes with consistent performing was evident in a 100-minute, 23-song set stocked with well-worn chestnuts and a few nods to newer fare.

Bryan Adams reminded fans about 'the great Tina Turner'

Clad in a casual uniform of dark pants and sneakers, Adams roamed the open stage while playing guitar, frequently hopping down to a platform that sported microphone stands at each end to hit every segment of the arena.

Whether rolling through the joyfully swinging "Can't Stop This Thing We Started" or leading the crowd that filled the lower bowl and floor of the venue through fist-pumper "Somebody," Adams proved that songs he tailored for arenas decades ago still resound with a melodic punch.

While guitar crunchers "It's Only Love" – recorded, he reminded, with "the great Tina Turner" – and "The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me is You" rattled appropriately, Adams is also regarded as a bit of a ballad king, and he didn’t disappoint those enamored with his softer contributions.

"Please Forgive Me" and "Here I Am" drew modest cheers, but the indelible piano opening from Gary Breit on "Heaven" prompted an immediate singalong of the first verse. Though Adams happily obliged the crowd their karaoke moment, his own voice soared with its trademark warm gruffness.

What is Bryan Adams' biggest ballad?

Surprisingly, for all of the high-octane offerings - "18 Til I Die" and the fun-but-ridiculously-ubiquitous "Summer of '69" among them – a highlight of the concert was pegged to another slow burner, His 1991 multiplatinum megahit about unyielding devotion, "(Everything I Do) I Do it For You," bears the stain of extreme popularity at proms and weddings, and because the masses love it, it can’t possibly be good, right? Yes, it’s treacly. It’s also sweet, meaningful and on this night, performed with impressive range.

Adams' catalog is unquestionably durable. Who would argue the air guitar joys of the no-frills "Cuts Like a Knife" or "Run to You?"

But even recent offerings, including "I've Been Looking for You" from his current album and the rockabilly shaker "You Belong to Me" from 2015's "Get Up" album, showcased his undiminished ability to fortify the spirit of rock 'n' roll.

Joan Jett & The Blackhearts debut new songs

Also keeping the beat steady was Jett and her Blackhearts, who spent last summer opening for Def Leppard, Motley Crue and Poison on The Stadium Tour.

The seemingly ageless Jett , 64, and her quartet of power rockers, established an assertive vibe with a new song, "Shooting Into Space" from the just-released "Mindsets" EP.

Though it was quickly followed by the Runaways favorite, "Cherry Bomb," Jett's statement that she still isn’t finished creating potent four-on-the-floor rockers was duly noted. Throughout the near-hourlong performance, she and the band slammed out three other new tracks, including the ultra-catchy, guitar-centric single, "If You’re Blue" and, to wrap the set, the saloon singalong "Whiskey Goes Good."

But fans yearning to hear her crushed-gravel voice on longtime classics were sated as well.

A diminutive figure in all-black, including her signature shag hair, Jett slashed at her guitar during "Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah)," loped through the rolling groove of "Fake Friends" and handled a serrated solo on her sizzling cover of Sly and the Family Stone’s original diversity anthem, "Everyday People."

Among the Blackhearts is longtime manager/producer/right hand man Kenny Laguna, who, in addition to playing keyboards and percussion, also acted as narrator as he shared anecdotes in his deep New York accent about the origins of "Fake Friends" (music industry hypocrites) and "Fresh Start" (from Jett's 2018 "Bad Reputation" documentary).

Naturally, "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" required no backstory and fans leapt to their feet to shout along with the jukebox staple.

But Jett wasn't going to end on an obvious note. Instead, she and the Blackhearts amped up the volume to storm through "Crimson & Clover" and "I Hate Myself for Loving You," both songs validating that Jett still possesses plenty of bite.

Bryan Adams Steps Up As Rock & Roll’s Guardian Angel On ‘So Happy It Hurts’ Tour [Review/Photos]

Bryan Adams has long been a beacon of sentimentality and nostalgia, especially in a music industry that’s always looking for what’s next. Even when the Canadian rocker was that next big thing, he found the spotlight, in part, with songs like “Summer of ‘69”, which hearkens back to simpler times.

Now, as that iconic track approaches its 40th birthday, Bryan has fashioned himself as a keeper of the flame for straightforward rock and roll, in a world where lines between genres and styles are blurrier than ever.

The 63-year-old staked his claim to that particular throne from the outset of his show at San Francisco’s Chase Center , on the final leg of his So Happy It Hurts U.S. tour. As has become customary on this go-round, the night began with “Kick Ass”, an anthem from his 2022 album So Happy It Hurts that features a voiceover from the actor John Cleese lamenting the demise of rock music—and nodding to Bryan as an “angel” sent to rescue the world from “bad music.”

That fed right into a stirring, 25-song set that had seemingly the entire crowd singing along to every word of every song. In some cases, like the balladic hit “Heaven”, Bryan deferred to the audience to carry entire verses.

He and his crew certainly did their part to involve fans in the production, in classic rock and roll fashion. Halfway through the main set, Bryan summoned his camera operator to search the arena for dancing fans during a pair of rockabilly songs: “You Belong To Me”, from 2015’s Get Up , and “I’ve Been Looking For You”, off his most recent album. Later on, he fielded an audience request—specifically asking for the deepest cut anyone could suggest—and wound up playing “Do I Have to Say The Words?” from 1991’s Waking Up The Neighbours .

Though Bryan and his band were hardly reliant on props and tricks, they did make entertaining use of an inflatable, drone-operated sports car from time to time. After keeping the crowd entertained following Joan Jett and the Blackhearts ’ opening set, the floating vehicle—with “Bryan Adams” scribbled on one side and “So Happy It Hurts” on the other—re-emerged for a ride as the band played the title track of the tour and its accompanying album.

And what would a proper rock concert be without at least a song or two with lighters (and phones) illuminating the building? Everyone put their lumens to work early on during “Shine a Light”, off the 2019 album of the same name, as well as at the very end amid Bryan’s solo encore of “All For Love”.

Beyond those live theatrics, Bryan and his band pulled off a tightly rehearsed show that offered each member ample opportunity to display his skills.

Keith Scott , Bryan’s brilliant lead guitarist, pulled off a surprisingly spot-on Tina Turner impression while singing the recently departed legend’s part on “It’s Only Love” from 1984’s Reckless . Pat Steward , who has recorded and toured with Bryan since the early ’80s, had his moment in the sun on drums during “The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You”. Bassist Solomon Walker stood out during the aforementioned rockabilly segment, due in large part to his acoustic upright bass. Gary Breit ’s keys were Bryan’s only accompaniment (other than his own acoustic guitar) on “Here I Am”, from the soundtrack for the 2002 film Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron .

And though Bryan hardly hogs the spotlight with his own instruments, he made excellent dual use of his steel string Martin GPCPA4 Rosewood acoustic guitar and Hohner harmonic during “Straight From the Heart” to open the encore.

bryan adams tour 2022 opening act

More than anything, Bryan’s distinctively (and powerfully) raspy voice took center stage from beginning to end. Whether riding high on hard-driving rock songs like “Can’t Stop This Thing We Started”, “18 ‘Til I Die”, “Cuts Like a Knife”, and “Run to You”, or crooning to full-on ballads like “Please Forgive Me” and “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You”, his vocals were the one constant that tied the entire performance together.

That much has been true for Bryan Adams throughout his illustrious career. As iconic as his greatest hits are in word and melody, odds are, they wouldn’t have made him one of the best-selling musicians of all time without powerful pipes.

This many years on, it’s damn near miraculous that Bryan can still belt out his litany of standards as beautifully as ever. He will continue to do so in September, when he and his band play four shows in his native Canada.

Then again, for someone who’s assumed the role of rock and roll’s resident angel, it’s only right that Bryan Adams would have every musical tool at his disposal to keep the roots of the genre alive and kick-ass.
