I think the GH Tour will eventually be the AL8 tour as well. This will be her "Eras Tour" moment. I don't think she'll do another album-themed tour again, she doesn't need to after 8 albums.
I think it's possible the music video has been shot based on her stories from the last couple of days, and she'll release a single before tour, followed by the album after September. She will take the tour overseas in 2025. There's no need to rebrand it, since we know that she'll probably just do singles anyways. Those are my predictions.

The Bite Me rollout was probably her best ever. In less than a week we got a single announcement, live performance, single release and music video. We were clueless before that.

I’m confused how putting out a GH album would prevent her from releasing a new album later. Is there a rule artists can only put out one album per year? She can pull a Taylor and drop 2 albums in the same year, maybe 4-6 months apart. I'm thinking budget. We know DTA is not a huge label, so if they prioritize a GH compilation album with CDs and vinyls, and potentially a new photoshoot and promo, then I don't think they'd be able to pull it off twice in a same year for a single artist. Yeah, she's the biggest artist they have by far, but it's not a huge label like where Taylor is, and she doesn't have the power Taylor has to literally put out whatever she wants, whenever she wants. She literally gave her label a few hours notice I think before releasing folklore. That's how much power she has lol.

I hope we don't get a GH compilation album since A, it would most likely jeopardize any chance of us getting an UMS 20th Anniversary edition and B, even if it has a couple of new songs, it would most likely mean no album till next year. We know the album is basically done, so letting it sit for too long will make her eventually scrap the whole thing and start off from scratch.
If she hadn't said multiple times she was working on the new album and that it was "basically done" back in early 2023, then I'd be fine with it, since we wouldn't be expecting anything anyways. But knowing we have an album which is most likely even mastered by now and her not releasing it is concerning to say the least.

I wonder if she's doing a shoot, based on her latest story. It does look like it...

I really really hope she doesn't open up with Girlfriend, I'm so tired of it. I get that it's her only #1 hit song, but I've grown so sick of it live. I love the song, but it's not the best song to perform live. It made sense during the TBDT era and was kind of fun to watch, but now it seems even forced just because it was her #1 hit song. I hope we get Sk8er Boi, WTH or even Bite Me as tour openers, since it's her most recent hit. I'm just as tired of Sk8er Boi as I am of Girlfriend. Yeah, honestly, I would go with Bite Me, since it's a killer opener and gets the crowd super amped, and it would make more sense since it's her newest stuff.

To be honest, if that's her decision I would hold no grudges against her. I know it's an "each to their own" thing, but IMO, with Love Sux she gave us the album that redeemed her as an artist and it's exactly what I wanted from her and all I needed. It didn't happen with anything that came after TBDT. I don't think I'll ever like a new album of hers as much ever again, so to me she has raised the bar to a degree I'm happy with. I would love to have a darker album, maybe less pop-punk and more rock, which is what I've been hoping for with AL8, but if that album got scrapped and she's done with music (for now) I wouldn't really complain. I would like her to be more communicative though, and not have us at the edge of our seats waiting for new music.
That being said, I don't think she'll ever fully retire. I'm sure AL8 will still happen.

I think it's highly possible she'll record a feat with Simple Plan. She will probably perform FAH with ATL on the shows where they're opening, and she'll probably want a song with SP to perform with them, That’s a cool idea, but then she might also must do a song with Royal and The Serpent and with Girlfriends? I'd love her to collab with Royal and The Serpent for her next album!

I'm really curious about the custom display with highlights from her career. What exactly do you think that is?

As long as we get an album this year (even if it's in the fall) I'll be happy.

My issue with this is that it's most likely going to be the same three songs from LG, MHE, GF, WTH, HTNGU, HAW and Bite Me. I assume she'll be adding a couple more songs from each era, maybe HW and DTM for UMS, WYG and Hot for TBDT, Smile for GL and maybe RNR for AL. But I'm not expecting her to even perform all singles from each era.
Being the 20th anniversary of UMS, it would make sense for her to perform all 4 singles this year, like she did for LG. And I see requests for her to perform HDIF, which is a long shot lol. However, she could play Fall To Pieces, which is a fan favorite.
And I do hope that we have at least a couple new songs to join the setlist, along with the album by the end of the year. I think it's pretty much confirmed she's no longer working on it and is done, even if she says she's still writing, which she always does.
