Hayley Williams Gives Old Songs Their Live Debuts At Palm Beach Tour Opener

Earlier this year, Paramore leader Hayley Williams headed out on her first-ever solo tour. It went well. Williams brought out a bunch of special guests and built her live show around Ego Death At The Bachelorette Party, the triumphant LP that she released last year. I saw her at Kilby Block Party, and she kicked ass. Back in May, while that tour was still happening, Williams announced plans for a completely different tour, this one called "The Hayley Williams Show," promising "material across all three of the singer’s solo albums as well as some exciting surprises." Now that the tour is underway, we have a better idea what that means.Williams played her first "Hayley Williams Show" show on Thursday night at West Palm Beach's iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre, with Magdalena Bay and Rico Nasty opening. Before the tour, there was widespread speculation that the set might dig deep into Williams' catalog, especially after venues in LA and New York teased the shows with lyrics from two old songs that feature Williams, B.o.B.'s 2010 hit "Airplanes" and Zedd's 2012 track "Stay The Night." Well, Williams didn't sing "Airplanes" or "Stay The Night" at last night's show. Maybe she'll get to them...
