Happy Throwback Thursday!

On this day, May 28th, ten years ago in 2010, the cast of Glee hit the stage at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City for a sold out concert.

The McKinley High New Directions rocked stages in sold out venues across the United States after the show’s first season of the instant hit series had wrapped up.

Cory Monteith, Lea Michele, Jenna Ushkowitz, Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Amber Riley, Naya Rivera and more toured the country for the first Glee tour.

They performed hits “Don’t Stop Believin’”, “Somebody To Love”, “Don’t Rain On My Parade”, “Jump”, “Bust Your Windows”, “Like A Prayer”, “Bad Romance”, “Sweet Caroline” and more.

After the massive success of the first tour, and the first two seasons of Glee, the cast embarked on an even larger, world tour the next summer. The second concert tour was much bigger, many more costumes, and so many different performances from the New Directions kids and their rivals, The Warblers.

In case you missed it, Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy recently revealed that he would love to redo the pilot episode and include these two celeb BFFs!

Just last year, the cast celebrated the show’s 10th anniversary. See what they said!
