Alanis Morissette and her legendary opener Joan Jett thrilled nearly 16,000 devoted fans at Toronto‘s Budweiser Stage during a two-night run of unforgettable performances this weekend. Morissette, originating from Ottawa, has been defining iconic rock since her groundbreaking ‘Jagged Little Pill’ album 29 years ago, which continues to captivate audiences.
Joan Jett, a rock ‘n’ roll icon, made her mark as a co-founder of The Runaways and proved her mettle with an hour-long set that showcased her no-nonsense rock ‘n’ roll attitude. Jett performed classics like ‘I Love Rock ‘n Roll’ and ‘Bad Reputation,’ bringing the crowd to their feet in a rock frenzy.
The energy was electric as Morissette took the stage, adorned in a peacock-inspired outfit that matched her spirited presence. Performing a 24-song set that delved deeply into her hit 1995 album ‘Jagged Little Pill,’ Morissette mesmerized the audience with her powerful mezzo-soprano vocals and unwavering stage presence.
Backed by her stellar band and a mesmerizing video backdrop, Morissette led the audience through a journey laced with hits like ‘Hand In My Pocket,’ ‘Right Through You,’ and the anthemic ‘You Oughta Know,’ which triggered a chorus of passionate sing-alongs from dedicated fans.
