Florence + The Machine played Tempelhof Sounds Festival in Berlin on June 10, 2022, and the crowd jumped so hard during “Dog Days Are Over” that local seismological stations registered a 1.4 magnitude tremor. That’s not a metaphor. Tens of thousands of fans, moving in unison at Florence Welch’s command, left a measurable physical imprint on the city. Touring behind ‘Dance Fever,’ the band delivered a set that ranged from the raw force of “Kiss With a Fist” and “What Kind of Man” to the euphoric lift of “Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)” and “Shake It Out,” a full-spectrum performance that reminded everyone why a Florence + The Machine live show is an event, not just a concert.
