The night opened with DJ TIIIIIIIIIIIP, who walked on stage holding a box of Zebra Cakes and tossed them into the crowd before starting the show. He kicked things off with a slideshow titled “Orange County, how to have the most fun at a Yung Gravy concert.” He went through the do’s and don’ts and hyped the crowd up before launching into a DJ set filled with a mix of current hits and joke tracks that had the audience shouting along.

Next up was Pertinence, who took full advantage of the energy that was already built up. His performance kept the crowd locked in from start to finish and added to the chaotic fun of the night. Every moment felt loud, wild, and fully in the spirit of what a Gravy show is known for.

DJ TIIIIIIIIIIIP returned for a mini set to get the venue ready for the main event. When it was finally time for Yung Gravy to come out, he walked onto the stage wearing a huge fur coat and his signature shades, instantly owning the room. He opened with a few tracks to warm up the night, but the energy spiked when the sample of “Mr. Sandman” floated through the speakers and he performed “Mr. Clean,” one of his biggest and most recognizable songs.

Gravy kept the momentum going with hit after hit, mixing humor with performance in a way only he can. Signing fans belongings while still performing, tossing random objects into the crows, and even calling out specific audience members who were having a good time! Halfway through the show he left the stage for a moment and returned in a bathrobe, sitting at a small candlelit dinner table to perform his older song “Cheryl,” giving the night one of its funniest and most memorable moments.

One of the funniest parts of the nights came when he asked the audience if they were hungry. The audience roared as a chef walked on stage with a small grill set up and began cooking frozen pancakes. Gravy started throwing them into the crowd, signing some of the pancakes before launching them like frisbees. It was chaotic and hilarious in a way only his shows manage to pull off.
