On a mission to sing every song from every episode from their acclaimed television show, Big Time Rush brought their In Real Life Worldwide Tour to Mohegan Sun last weekend. Fans from all over New England poured into the beloved Uncasville, Connecticut arena for a night full for music and fun. Both opening acts have ties to the band, going all the way back to 2009.
Stephen Kramer Glickman started out the night with a set full of trendy pop covers that gave the audience a chance to get on their feet and warm up their voices. People were cheering from the moment he walked onto the stage to the moment that the final notes were played. Katelyn Tarver came out shortly after with a Mohegan Sun themed shirt. Her set was composed of original songs she has written throughout her career so far, beginning in 2017.

Big Time Rush started their performance with the iconic intro from their television show as the boys popped up on the stage to sing the final lines. They began the journey through their entire discography with some fun twists. The set list included mashups, matching choreography, and a cameo from Stephen Kramer Glickman. As usual, four Worldwide girls were picked from the crowd for a special moment. The setlist as a whole was perfect, with each song getting a chance to shine in their own way. This tour is for anyone who watched Big Time Rush back in 2009 and wanted to relive their favorite television show. Catch this tour in your city near you and make sure to live it big time!
