Tulsa was in for one hell of a night as the Alienation Tour rolled into the BOK Center, bringing together three powerhouse names in rock and metal: The Funeral Portrait, I Prevail, and headliners Three Days Grace. With a lineup like this, there was little doubt the night would deliver plenty of heavy riffs, pounding drums, massive vocals, and enough adrenaline to keep the crowd rocking from beginning to end. The Alienation Tour wasn’t just another stop on the road; it was a full-blown rock spectacle that gave Tulsa exactly what it came for.
Kicking things off, The Funeral Portrait wasted no time making their presence known. Bringing their theatrical style, infectious energy, and dark alternative-rock attitude to the stage, they quickly got the crowd moving. With songs like “Mad World,” “Blood Mother,” and “Suffocate City,” the band delivered a set packed with personality and plenty of singalong moments. Their combination of gritty rock, dramatic flair, and larger-than-life stage presence made them a fitting opener for a night that was only getting started.
Next up, I Prevail took things to another level, unleashing a high-octane performance that hit like a freight train. The band’s signature blend of metalcore aggression, melodic hooks, crushing breakdowns, and explosive vocals had the BOK Center fired up. From the opening punch of “NWO” and “Bow Down” to fan favorites like “Hurricane,” “Choke,” and “Gasoline,” I Prevail kept the intensity cranked up. The contrast between the band’s heavier moments and soaring melodic sections gave the set plenty of variety without ever letting the momentum slip. If anyone in the building wasn’t already an I Prevail fan, there was a pretty good chance they left the arena reconsidering that decision.
Then it was time for Three Days Grace to take command of the BOK Center, and they delivered the kind of performance that reminds everyone why they’ve remained a staple of modern rock for so many years. With Adam Gontier and Matt Walst sharing vocal duties, the band brought an exciting dynamic to the stage, blending the nostalgia of the songs that helped build their legacy with the newer material from Alienation. From “Animal I Have Become,” “I Hate Everything About You,” and “Riot” to the newer track “Dominate”,” the setlist gave longtime fans plenty to scream along with while showcasing the band’s continued evolution. The acoustic portion, featuring songs like “Lost in You,” “Pain,” and “Never Too Late,” offered a welcome change of pace before the band cranked things right back up. The chemistry between the two vocalists added another dimension to the performance, making this a particularly memorable chapter in the Three Days Grace story.
Three bands, three different flavors of rock, and one seriously loud night in Tulsa! The Alienation Tour brought together theatrical rock, modern metalcore, and the hard-hitting alternative anthems that have made Three Days Grace a household name among rock fans. The BOK Center got its dose of heavy, melodic, and downright badass, proving once again that rock music is alive, kicking, and showing absolutely no signs of slowing down. If this tour is rolling anywhere near your hometown, do yourself a favor and grab a ticket. Your ears might need a recovery day, but your inner rock fan will thank you!
