Macklemore returned to the stage at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre on 22 October for his first concert since being removed from Ed Sheeran's US tour over his pro-Palestinian remarks. The performance marked the rapper's first public appearance since the fallout and drew attention for how he would address the issue that led to his departure from the tour.

During the concert, Macklemore revisited the message that put him at the centre of a debate about artists using their platforms to speak about global conflicts. He performed a 17-song set, including 'Hind's Hall' and 'Hind's Hall 2', while continuing to call for Palestinian freedom.
