concert chronology

The Extraterrestrial World Tour is the third concert tour and second world tour by Chinese singer-songwriter Joker Xue. The "Extraterrestrial World Tour" totals a record-breaking 140 shows across four continents with 130 in Asia, 2 in Europe, 5 in North America, and 3 in Oceania.[1][2][3] Total attendance is approximately 5,000,000.[4]

All overseas venues are arenas. All venues in mainland China are stadiums, most stops have 2–3 shows in a row with the 18-show finale being the exception with 6 shows at each of the 3 stops.

Background

[edit]

On July 13, 2021, Xue announced the tour by posting the Extraterrestrial World Tour poster on Weibo.[5] On July 24, at the Chaole Music Festival, Xue shared the tour is both a concert and a story with a lot of "silly plotlines" that should be "extremely fun."[6]

Extraterrestrial World Tour opened in October 2021 with two shows in Suzhou followed by two shows in Guangzhou the next month. In 2022, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of the announced dates were postponed[7] and only the Haikou concert was successfully held on December 24, 2022.[8] In March 2023, the tour resumed and for the rest of the tour, Xue mostly maintained the pace of one stop per week and frequently with several shows per stop.

Xue strives to lessen the burden of travelling to concerts for his fans, promising to meet them "in their hometowns" because his principle is "if I take one more step, you will take one fewer step".[9][10] In 2023, Extraterrestrial World Tour was listed as one of the tours with the most number of stops.[11] By the end of the tour, Xue has performed in 30 of China's 34 provinces with a finale of 18 shows, 6 shows each at 3 stops in different regions of China: northern (Beijing), southern (Shenzhen), and central (Suzhou).[12]

Concert synopsis

[edit]

The Extraterrestrial World Tour is both a concert and a story.[6] In it, Xue transforms into an interstellar executive, codename 0717, who was ordered to destroy Earth. However, through interactions with the fans during the concert, 0717 is moved by the goodness of humans and chooses to sacrifice himself to save them. The concert is interspersed with jokes and the pre-recorded videos are filmed in a comedic manner, showcasing his "zany brand of humour."[13]

Each concert consists of five acts, with pre-recorded videos and talking segments where Xue interacts with different audience members, making them active participants in the story.[14] Throughout the concert, positive messaging about treating each other with kindness and improving our world one small act at a time is conveyed.[15]

  1. Pre-recorded Video 1 introduces the "Regulations on the Joint Protection of Space Creatures" which Earth has been found in violation of. Interstellar Executive 0717's arrival on earth is portrayed through "Extraterrestrial" (天外来物) and "The Return of the Prince" (王子归来). 0717's mission is to carry out Earth's destruction. In Talking Segment 1, 0717 questions the audience if any of them purchased their tickets via scalpers, which Xue has previously condemned.[16]
  2. Pre-recorded Video 2 mentions that 0717 needs to bring back three Earth species to Interstellar Headquarters. Humans fight over the chance for escape, their selfishness is highlighted through "Animal World" (动物世界). In Talking Segment 2, 0717 references 碰瓷 (i.e. a person faking an injury then blackmailing others for compensation), lamenting how it has made people wary to help each other and calling for the audience to believe there is more good than bad intention in the world. He and the dancers put on gray wigs to portray elderly women and fall down on stage. To continue the show, the audience sing "Actor" (演员) in unison, demonstrating their willingness to work together, to help 0717 and the dancers get back up. The audience succeeds and this selfless kind act moves 0717.
  3. In Pre-record Video 3, 0717 is in disbelief that he feels such strong emotions toward humans. To figure out why, he travels back in time to see what Earth was like in the past. He is transported to Xue's own 2017 I Think I've Seen You Somewhere Tour and through the "Medley" (组曲串烧) of more than 15 songs from the 2017 tour's setlist, 0717 realizes that he was human and has been to Earth before. Special guest appears to perform a duet with 0717 and bring a necklace as proof of his past.
  4. In Pre-recorded Video 4, the Interstellar Headquarters, impatiently with 0717's lack of progress, sends forces to destroy Earth. 0717 successfully negotiates for a delay and expresses his belief that humans can become better through "Turn Waste Into Treasure" (变废为宝). However, the Interstellar Headquarters is unmoved. 0717 sacrifices himself to protect Earth and says goodbye to the audience via "Wandering With You" (陪你去流浪).
  5. 0717's story is over and the audience call Xue's name to bring him back. Xue returns with the song "It's Been So Long" (这么久没见). Talking Segment 3 includes acknowledging the band and crew of the concert and summarizing the story of "Extraterrestrial" before bidding the audience farewell. The song "Extraterrestrial" (天外来物) bookends the show.

Due to time constraint and stage setup, international shows do not have special guests. The setlist and talking segments are also reduced.

One of the running jokes for Xue's concerts is the "refund" meme that's become a highlight. Anytime Xue says a wrong word, sings the wrong lyrics, or, on one memorable occasion, burps, the audience cheerfully shouts for a "refund" in response.[17]

Stage design

[edit]

The Extraterrestrial World Tour incorporates the use of a large spaceship above the stage is essential for the interstellar space theme. Before each concert, the production team uses 40 18-meter vans to load and transport parts then works continuously for 8 days using multiple cranes to lift the 30-ton spaceship to a height of 30 meters. Due to the time required for assembly and the weekly tour schedule, two sets of spaceship are used, alternating between tour stops.[18] In addition, there are several other pieces that are central to storytelling, such as the 9-meter-high "Towers of Desire" in the first act, the "Carousel" in the third act that transport 0717 back in time, and the "Highwire Walking" (with harness) in the fourth act that symbolizes changes in 0717's emotional state before exiting in a space pod.[15][19][20]

The stage is equipped with more than 2,000 lights, 28 sets of LED screens totaling 2,200 square meters, 21 sets of lifting platforms, and 250 computer numerical control motors.[21] By integrating multi-tired lighting within the structure of the spaceship and flanking the movable LED screens with vertical lighting, it creates a dynamic setting for 0717's story.[14] The lighting design has been recognized by LIT Lighting Design Awards, MUSE Design Awards and Novum Design Awards.[22][23][24] The light sticks used by the audience are made of degradable and recyclable materials, in keeping with the theme of the story.[15][14]

All of the mainland China venues are outdoor stadiums, consisting a large area that's split into floor and balcony sections, which can be a challenge to provide high-quality experience for everyone.[25] To overcome this, the "Extraterrestrial World Tour" sound design team installs a variety of L-Acoustics speakers around the stadium, including but not limited to K1, K2, Kara, K1-SB, and KS28.[26] Since the Suzhou shows in 2021, the Extraterrestrial World Tour has utilized delay towers to reinforce the main sound system and ensure all audience members have the same sound quality in one of the earliest large-scale use of delay towers in China.[25] The stage return system is made up of 22 L-Acoustics' 115XT HiQs, 4 ARCS IIs, and 4 KS28s while the PA console uses DiGiCo's Quantum 7.[26]

Commercial performance

[edit]
A vehicle drove towards the Suzhou Olympic Sports Centre, which the banner says "How did you know I am going to the concert by Joker Xue" at the rear (15 August 2024)

In 2021, Xue was first in comprehensive ranking of concert box office and number of shows of all 2021 tours in China.[29] In 2023, Xue ranked first in artist with highest number of concerts and second in artist with most number of stops among all 2023 tours in China.[11]

Many of the Chinese cities he toured in were categorized by Chinese city tier system as second- and third- tier cities, where he is often the first artist to hold a concert and in doing so, provide a significant boost to the local economy.[30] In 2023, more than 50,000 people attended Xue's concerts in Quzhou, a third-tiered city, and generated 124 million of cumulative tourism revenue, resulting in Quzhou ranking first in cities with the fastest box office growth in 2023.[31][30] In 2024, Quzhou's News Media Center posted a video on its official Douyin account expressing their gratitude to Xue.[32]

Xue's international stops were also successful. Both of his Kuala Lumpur and Singapore stops had three consecutive shows due to overwhelming demand as originally only one show was announced then a second show was added when the first sold out quickly then a third show was added when the second also sold out quickly.[33][34] The total gross for the New York and Las Vegas stops was $5.8 million with the total attendance of 21,100, placing Xue at 23 on Billboard's February 2024 Top Tours list.[35]

In June 2023, Hainan Airlines collaborated Chaoshi Music to create exclusive flights for the Extraterrestrial World Tour on a customized plane featuring the concert poster painted on the exterior and details such as lyrics from Xue's songs on the interior for an immersive experience.[30] In July, the Extraterrestrial flights were named one of the “Top 50 Brand Marketing Cases” at the Top 100 Brands Awards Ceremony, hosted by Sina Finance and organized by China Brand Innovation Lab and Midu.[36]

For the 99th and 100th concert in Luoyang of the Extraterrestrial World Tour, Xue invited Peking Opera performer Zhang Zixi for a limited special performance of "City of Luo" (洛城).[55][56] Xue said at the concert that only this city has this song.
