Machine Gun Kelly enters first gig of 2022 world tour in pink helicopter
Written by worldOneFm on June 12, 2022
Machine Gun Kelly opened his 2022 world tour this week (June 8) in Texas – watch him arrive in a huge pink helicopter.
The tour, behind new album ‘Mainstream Sellout’, began in Austin at the Moody Center on Wednesday, and Kelly made a huge entrance.
As footage shows, a massive pink and black helicopter landed in the middle of the venue, from which the rapper and pop-punk star attached himself onto via a rope and was carried in mid-air through the venue.
Reviewing Machine Gun Kelly’s latest album ‘Mainstream Sellout’, NME wrote: “In less than two years, Machine Gun Kelly has gone from underrated rapper to the sort of bonafide rock star who headlines festivals alongside the likes of Metallica, Green Day and Dua Lipa.”
The lengthy arena tour behind ‘Mainstream Sellout’, which sees Kelly supported by Avril Lavigne and Blink-182’s Travis Barker among others, continues this week and throughout 2022. See the dates and support acts below.
