On March 9, The Disco Biscuits took their Why We Dance Tour to Pittsburgh’s Stage AE. The stop served as the band’s second location on their expansive 2024 run, which kicked off over two nights, March 7 and 8, at The Fillmore in Silver Springs, Md. The Saturday night concert included extended jams filled with explorative instrumental moments and a guest appearance during the evening’s final song by Dopopad keyboardist Eli Winderman.
Before Winderman’s arrival on stage, the Pennsylvania natives started with “7-11,” representing the first 2024 performance of the TranceFusionRadio_Broadcast 03 cut. The night's first song was left unfinished yet adorned with a tease of Shaggy’s “It Wasn’t Me.” Without a pause, the band merged into “The Wormhole” and extended their prowess on the new number, “No Recollection,” which converged into a nonstop musical sequence.
The Disco Biscuits let the LCD Soundsystem original, “Tribulations,” bloom from the initial set before they picked up “No Recollection” again, ultimately closing the frame after completing the 2024 debuted number. For their second set, The Disco Biscuits returned to the stage and dipped into “Shelby Rose,” which ran into follow-ups “Munchkin Invasion” and “M1.” Without stopping, “The Deal” ensued and coalesced the Conspirator original, “Orch Theme,” before ultimately developing into the second frame opener, “Shelby Rose.”
The Disco Biscuits invited Winderman to the stage for the night's encore. The evening's guest assisted with keys, adding them to the last song of the band’s Pittsburgh stand, “We Like to Party.” Notably, Winderman helped open up the night with his Octave Cat ensemble prior to an invitation to join the headliners on stage.
After closing out Saturday night’s show, The Disco Biscuits will perform at The Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville, Va., tonight, March 10. Tickets remain on sale and can be purchased here.
