Ninja Intercourse Occasion, TWRP
Commodore Ballroom, Vancouver, BC
June 20, 2025
It was the primary time Ninja Intercourse Occasion introduced their unusual mixture of intercourse jokes, synth rock, and unshakeable positivity to Vancouver. On Friday evening, they ended their Pure Magnificence tour, and reminded a sold-out Commodore Ballroom that absurdity and expertise aren’t mutually unique.
Opening the evening was TWRP, the interdimensional funk warriors who one way or the other handle to be each a decent instrumental band and dwelling cartoons. Physician Sung glided onstage (on a hoverboard!) and launched into “Digital Nightmare,” flanked by Commander Meouch, Lord Phobos, and Havve Hogan. Their set was filled with fan favourites like “Synthesize Her” and “Atomic Karate.” Their onstage chemistry and retro-futurist stage outfits made them appear to be the most effective online game band you’ve by no means performed.
Then got here Ninja Intercourse Occasion. Dan Avidan (aka Danny Sexbang) emerged in a glowing blue cape, hips swaying with joyful menace, whereas Ninja Brian stared daggers from behind his keyboard, silently judging us all, as all the time. They kicked off with “Get Prepared (To Get Prepared),” an ideal opener that lived as much as its identify.
The set pulled closely from their Below The Covers, Vol. IV album launched in 2025, however there was room for older classics too. “6969” was a full-blown rock opera with TWRP backing them. Danny’s voice was sturdy, his banter extraordinary, and Ninja Brian stayed in full deadpan killer mode the entire method by way of.
They snuck in a couple of surprises, together with a canopy of The Automobiles’ “Simply What I Wanted.” However the largest crowd response got here from the final track of the evening “Danny Don’t You Know.”
Ninja Intercourse Occasion and TWRP threw a celebration that feels half area rock, half sketch comedy, half fever dream. Vancouver confirmed up prepared, and each bands delivered. What a solution to finish a tour!
