Background and development
In November 2017, Billie Eilish announced her second concert tour, the Where's My Mind Tour, to her first major-label EP, Don't Smile at Me (2017).[1] Tour dates and locations were released on the same day.[1] The setlist included all of the songs from Don't Smile at Me, including a cover of Drake's "Hotline Bling" and Eilish's brother Finneas O'Connell, performing his single "New Girl".[2]
Synopsis
In North America, Eilish started the tour with a performance of "Bellyache". She would throw her hair around, stick her tongue out, and jump around.[3] Eilish's brother and producer Finneas O'Connell, would perform his 2016 single "New Girl".[3] Eilish would perform a cover of rapper Drake's "Hotline Bling" on a ukulele and Finneas would play an acoustic guitar.[3] The cover would later transition into "Party Favor".[3] She would perform an unreleased song called "When the Party's Over".[3]
Eilish's performance at the Black Cat was opened by Reo Cragun and DJ Kieroglyphics.
In Europe, Eilish would open with "Bellyache". She would then perform "&Burn".[5] The recorded version features America rapper Vince Staples, but it was performed live Eilish without him. It would begin with the original arrangement before the beat drops and Eilish would break into dance.[5] Eilish would sing "Six Feet Under", Eilish chants the crowd with "fuck that hoe" having explained that two years ago she'd spent the day with a boy, going to see a movie and after their first kiss that night he let her know it was as magical as he believed.[5] She then plays the unreleased song, saying "how could I say I like you like that".[5] Eilish would finish with "Copycat", red lights would flash as Eilish sang it.[5]
Reception
Nicole Almeida of Atwood Magazine praised the show, writing that everybody who knew good music would know Eilish's name, and those who didn't would be bound to "discover it very soon because it is evident she is set on a path to worldwide stardom."
