Kanye West's hyped up and long-awaited Yeezus tour kicked off in Seattle last night (19 October) with a two-hour, career-spanning set, complete with mountains and Jesus.
Kanye performed newer material from lastest album Yeezus including, 'Hold My Liquor' and 'I'm In It' as well as incorporating older, well-known hits such as 'Jesus Walks' and 'All of the Lights' into the set.
But it wasn't just his impressive song structure that made the opening show so successful, Kanye's stage set included a giant mountain of which he would perform on top of, as well as a large screen above the mountain depicting visuals of the star and other dramatic effects.
