Oh and about set list there’s of course improvements. I however like they scrapped he wasn’t and used smile, I haven’t heard that one live ever and it’s cool she brought it back. My wish is she scrapped Here’s to never growing up for another love sux song. And maybe changed Flames into something else. But honestly this set list is okay imo for the length it is. I’m happy she’s doing Bois lie, bite me, LIWYHM and the love sux short version. At least 4 new songs and they’re all very good live songs. I wish she just did Avalanche / FU / Deja vu at some point.

If you mean my new profile picture it’s from the roxy theatre album release party this year. I did meet Avril briefly this tour outside the barricades outside the busses in Montreal. Montreal and Vancouver was the only shows she stepped outside to the fans to sign so I was lucky that I attended one of these. She was super sweet but as usual when there’s so many fans around it’s also very crazy, people singing her songs, screaming, crying etc. everyone was wearing masks so they didn’t approve of selfies only signing stuff The shows were great. Looking at footages from the shows it literally looks like Montreal, Ottawa, London, Windsor and Toronto was the most exciting and energetic shows. Maybe that’s just me, but looking at footages she seems so excited during these shows. I think the best for sure for me was Toronto. It was very noticeable that she had family and friends there cause she was so happy and excited and she delivered on stage. I feel this tour was definitely more energized than head above water tour. And it was so great to see her in arenas again, to see fans all over in the back etc. Canada really loves her!!! Like they know her new songs, even the people in the back. Many fans had done their homework and listened to the new album to be more familiar with the new songs. Vocally she was the best in Montreal I think. Which is the craziest show for me. I was originally gonna do Montreal, then they postponed it and so I was able to also reschedule my flight — I arrived like 19.30 to the airport and the whole show started at 19.00 and Avril starts 21.00. I was so bummed when they moved back the show and I thought I wouldn’t be able to make it. But for some miracle reason I had such a smooth time at the airport and had to go through zero customs and security, so I just took a taxi to the venue and dropped my luggage in my friends car and bought a ticket from a resale site the very last minute and was able to enjoy the full show All time low and Modsun are great opening acts. grandson however did not fit the vibe at all in my opinion and it felt like talking with fans in line and crowd, none really liked him. I wish they had shorter opening acts. Thankfully I never went to a show that had all three ones, but Francy and other people who went to the shows that had all time low, Modsun and grandson had to wait like 3 hours in the crowd for Avril to start, that’s a lot when you’re already tired from lining up outside the venue etc.

Finally recovering from tour withdraws lol and also from flu — almost my whole group got the flu (not covid). I went to Montreal, Ottawa, London and Toronto + Juno’s. Not sure if anyone is interested in a review…

Excuse my ignorance about buying tickets in presale, but what are the conditions for getting the tickets tomorrow at the presale? You need to be member of his fan site or something? I have a Bandsintown account but I guess that is not enough I have no idea but I’d assume there’s a password and maybe it’s gonna be shared online? I remember Avril had a presale password

I think she’s gonna perform 10-11 songs, didn’t she do that for BSB tour when she was “special guest” Could be, but that’s still not as many songs as she’d be playing at her own shows and we know if she’s an opener she’s going to do mainly hits that the general audience would know. Goodbye to any chances of hearing album tracks basically. Not gonna lie, I’m super disappointed by this. I was hoping she was going to play solo shows and as it is, this tour isn’t even coming to my area anyway. I was hoping to be able to see her live this summer but I’m not interested at all in MGK or having to travel. I am imagining it’s gonna be like the roxy set list. And I imagine, if she’s only doing it as opening act, she’s gonna change up some songs like she was planning to perform love sux for Roxy. I think her being opening act doesn’t decrease chances of love sux songs, just less songs. I still think she’s gonna perform the new songs she likes etc, but much less songs.. I am thinking what if she’s doing this cause she’s gonna do let go shows and didn’t want to book two separate tours in the US? Idk

To me that poster would suggest she’s only doing the 7/2 date and I hope that’s the case. I’m not here for her US tour to be just an opening act again. Yeah playing in bigger venues would expose her music to more people but her fans want to see HER and get a full set, not just 5-6 songs which would only be singles. I really hope she’s doing her own tour in addition to being a guest on the MGK tour. I think she’s gonna perform 10-11 songs, didn’t she do that for BSB tour when she was “special guest”

I really think it might actually be both. Depending on the lighting some parts of the cover look orange while other parts look red. Maybe the intention was for it to be orange but how can she not understand how it does actually look red? I think it looks red as well but when I use the color thing, on the floor closest to her it’s orange but as the light fades it gets red 👀 Not flop me using red and black hearts on all social media posts this era. 😂😂😂

At the end it's all about privilege. Poor Avril. I bet she thinks that these old Bandaids members still do something for her career. And no, Amanda, I don't think they're oblished to give our feedback to her but you have to admit that all this privilege is unfair (at least) nowadays. You see a lot of fansites and fans all over the world working hard to promote her music DAILY while this small group do nothing for her anymore (for 10 years or more). "Oh but they pay"... come on. We all know that most of them are invited to some of her private events. They don't pay for it. For 99% of all concerts, good morning americas, shows etc, the “OG BA staff” pays just like everyone else. They line up for hours outside venues. They line up outside buses. They spend money flying, accommodations, tickets etc. If Avril wants to meet them once per world tour, out of all the 20 shows they go to, just like she wants to meet radio people or journalists or other press or friends or familiar faces, that’s totally up to her. In a way it’s privilege or course, depending how you see it — but they’ve also been working a lot to be at the place they are today and the connection they have to Avril doesn’t take 1 year to build. They’ve done a lot for her through the years which lead them where they are today. At this point, even if some of them wouldn’t do the smallest like buy her album(as an example), Avril would still want to meet them and smile seeing them. They’ve done a lot for her over the 20 years and well most important: they’ve met her for over 20 years, seen front row for over 20 years, Avril has bond a connection with them. I can assure you even if Avril was told in her face that some of them don’t spend time in the BA forums anymore - that wouldn’t change anything. There’s no “poor Avril” in this; she just wants to meet the fans she first acknowledged during let go era lining up for front rows and supporting her, and people she has built relationships with through 20 years. I am pretty sure if you or someone go to 20 shows of the next tour and be front row at all of them, she will start recognizing the face and make gestures too. Maybe we can soon fade away from this topic since we keep repeating the same things.
