Give You the World Tour

The **Give You the World Tour** is a tour that Steve Lacy is embarking on to promote his second album *Gemini Rights* (2022). The main leg of the tour consisted of 29 stops, starting on October 2 at Denver, and ending on November 11 in Los Angeles. The tour was extended to include six more shows in February 2023. He has been joined by Fousheé for the entirety of the tour.

## Events

### Sales

The tour was announced on August 2, with tickets going on sale three days later. Many of the venues were changed to allow for more space and attendees. An additional date for Brooklyn, New York, was added once the Terminal 5 show scheduled for the night before sold out.

### Main leg

Steve attracted headlines for stopping the New Orleans show in the middle of "Bad Habit" and throwing someone's disposable camera to the ground. The incident unfolded after a fan tried to throw the same camera at him while he was performing. The incident, along with someone interrupting the beginning of "Helmet," became a popular meme on TikTok through early November.

In the middle of the tour, he performed "Bad Habit" and "Helmet" on the November 5 episode of *Saturday Night Live* that was hosted by Amy Schumer. The main leg of the tour concluded with a November 11 performance in Los Angeles that was broadcast on Amazon Music and Twitch.

### Additional leg

On December 8, 2022, Steve announced six more dates which included shows along the western coast of the United States plus Vancouver. The shows are all scheduled for the middle of February 2023.
