Rejoice! Ghost have returned to our shores. Papa Emeritus IV and the Nameless Ghouls brought the Re-Imperatour stateside last night (August 2nd) at the Concord Pavilion in Concord, California, the kickoff show of a 27-date U.S. trek.
Viking-metal berserkers and fellow Swedes Amon Amarth opened the show, but the evening belonged to the headliners, who had the audience enthralled with a 19-song set packed with classic songs and live staples, including the tour debut of Meliora favorite "Absolution."
Check out fan-filmed footage above and below, as well as the full setlist, courtesy of setlist.fm. The Re-Imperatour U.S.A. continues August 4th at the White River Amphitheatre in Auburn, Washington.
