The Most Wanted Tour was the sceond concert tour by American recording artist Hilary Duff. Announced in April 2004, the tour began on July 20, 2004 to support Duff's eponymously–titled third studio album (2004). The tour visited North America, Asia and Australia, ending on January 29, 2005. A behind the scenes look during rehearsals of the tour's first stop was documented and released as a video, entitled Learning to Fly in November 2004.

Background[edit]

Following the end of the Metamorphosis Tour in December 2003, Duff filmed two movies—Raise Your Voice and The Perfect Man—back to back.[1] Between shooting days, Duff also recorded songs for her then-upcoming third studio album, due out in the fall.[1] On April 27, 2004, it was announced by MTV News that while Duff was finishing up the recording process of her new album, she would embark on a tour of the United States to support the upcoming release.[2] The first ten tour dates were released the same day, along with several pre-tour performances.[2] Further tour dates were announced on July 13, 2004.[3] The tour was later expanded, adding dates in Japan,[4] Australia[5] and Canada.[6]

Hilary Duff concert chronology

An extension of the tour was announced in May 2005. Entitled the Still Most Wanted Tour, the extension was launched to support Duff's first compilation album Most Wanted (2005). The tour re-visited North America and Australia, and branched out into Europe and Latin America, making it the first time for Duff to do so.

Background[edit]

A further extension of the tour, entitled the Still Most Wanted Tour was announced on May 20, 2005.[15] The new worldwide arena tour was launched to support Duff's first compilation album Most Wanted (2005).[15]

Concert synopsis[edit]

After an electronic blue board attached to the side of the stage counted down the seconds to zero, Duff appeared on the stage and performed "Wake Up".[16]

"Duff breezed through old favorites like "Come Clean" and "Hide Away" from her two multiplatinum albums, 2003's Metamorphosis and her self-titled 2004 sophomore studio disc, respectively, before segueing into some fresh material. "This song is brand new and you guys are going to be the first to hear it," Duff said, premiering a second new track, "Beat of My Heart." For the third and final new tune, "Break My Heart," a black screen flashed the words "hate," "love," "pain," "pleasure," "hope" and "trust." "Now you're through with me, I don't know what to do with me," Duff crooned, as she took a seat onstage near her drummer. "Why don't you break my heart and watch me fall apart ... look what you did to me, you got the best of me." Duff quickly exited, and re-emerged minutes later through the center of the stage, barefoot and energized, bounding about as she tackled the upbeat tune "Rock This World" in front of a screen with a pixilated rotating globe. "Hey, Los Angeles, stand up! I don't care how old you are — get up!" Duff cried out. As she shifted into "Fly," the stage was soon engulfed in blue and green laser lights that darted into the screaming crowd. Finally, the singer brought the young concertgoers to their feet as she introduced "So Yesterday," one of the obvious crowd favorites of the evening. "You guys have to sing along to this! No excuses!" she said. "I know you know this!" The throng of fans did not disappoint, shouting the lyrics in unison along with their perky hero. "Thank you guys so much for coming to my show," Duff told the crowd as the evening started to wind down. "Do you guys want to hear more? Actually, I don't think you guys have been loud enough for me to do more, and you might have to convince my band, 'cause I can't play the instruments by myself." As she was met by an exuberant reply, the singer finally caved to the antsy mob, and closed out her show with a more rocking, albeit lesser-known tune, "Girl Can Rock" from 2004's "A Cinderella Story." Duff proceeded to exit the stage with her full band in tow, leaving fans waiting, demanding, and outright expecting an encore from their idol, but it never came."

"The stage was decked out with a big screen, two ceiling-high silver columns, a 5 piece band, 3 back up singers and 3 back up dancers all of whom Hilary took the time to introduce to the audience. Additions to the stage included a front ramp and two side ramps allowing Hilary to sing to every corner of the venue. Although her performances proved that she doesn't have the vocal range of Jessica Simpson or Christina Aguilera, at least she didn't resort to lip-synching ala Ashlee Simpson or Britney Spears. And while many critics have said that the Hilary Empire should stick to kids' shows and Disney movies, more than 15,000 teens, tweens and their moms proved that they couldn't get enough Duff."[17]
