I wonder if it’s due to the locations, don’t know how popular she is in Florida for example. And then maybe the MSG date is putting people off if it might change.
I know I’m not going this time, saw her in August and didn’t have to go far. This time I’d have to travel and get hotel and everything and we are already seeing 2 concerts in the summer next year we’re traveling and getting a hotel for. I wonder if a lot of people who already went are skipping it this time. I hope the sales do well for her though.

I also think the general public isn’t really aware of that tour yet. The first round got a lot of press, this one doesn’t seem to have gotten a lot yet. I think she’ll do fine anyways, still half a year to go, enough time to get the word out about this tour.

Ticket sales so far are tragic. 💀 She might want to consider dropping new music to further promote the tour or drop the prices. great idea! 😁 It's also Christmas time and I don't think she's that popular to be on anyone's Christmas list outside of us at least. People are upset with how fast tickets go on sale after tours are announced and ticket prices in general. She needs to do some promo. It might be easy or hard depending on the new years celebrations but she can show up briefly on any show just to tell people about the tour and a brief graphic.

I've given up hope of an Australian tour. It's almost been 20 years since she's played a show here :/ Wow really? I didn't think about that at all. Maybe her team thinks the big expenses won't pay off if she goes to Australia and NZ. But now I remember she was very close in 2011/12. It's really weird that she wasn't there so long

Avril's team should reinvent this Greatest Hits Tour part 2 a little bit, not just playing with old nostalgia and use last tour treatments.
- New clothes (i think it's obvious she'll wear new clothes) - 1 secret song each date (she doesn't have to sing non-singles songs or songs she never sang before, but playing songs like I Fell In Love With The Devil, Keep Holding On, Tomorrow, Naked is enough) - Free Skateboard gift and bring fans to the stage (I think she will still doing it, but on last tour i don't think she did it for all dates) - Better stage production. I hate on last tour she doesn't play When You're Gone music video in the background, but using boring graphic video (i think it was water video) instead.

Yeah I hope she makes some changes even if only minor. I expect she will (though maybe not to the setlist lol, it’s avril!). I’d definitely go again if she brings it back to the UK.

I think the Christmas break also plays a major role. People just aren’t that interested in buying tickets at this time of year.
That said, she really needs to come up with a new strategy to sell tickets. After a whole year of touring, nostalgia might not be enough to draw people in, especially since, while the concert itself (as well as her interaction, vocals, etc.) were praised, her on-stage performance got bad reviews early on and only managed to climb to mild reviews later on the tour.
That kind of feedback might make people hesitate to buy tickets. A new song could be the best move, but let’s be real.. if she drops some Simple Plan collab that ends up being the most generic song possible, I’m not holding my breath. Sure, a solid marketing campaign could help, and I’ve noticed they’ve been advertising on some local TV programs.

Had to travel 2 hrs for her last tour and head back at night was a nightmare. I'm excited honeslty 😂

I hate on last tour she doesn't play When You're Gone music video in the background, but using boring graphic video (i think it was water video) instead. That's a really good idea for songs that are singles but not being played often. IFILWTD, KHO are excellent choices. But Naked wasn't a single? Why choose that song? She could even play Mobile since it was released (not everywhere) as a single. She could even sing Alice, I'm A Mess, TMIO or Dumb Blonde. Then there are 7 (new) songs in the setlist for 7 dates, that's better than a cover song in my opinion, because the setlist is already short. If she comes to Europe (The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany) and isn't playing festivals but actual real shows I want to see her again a few times if possible. But I do hope she's also continues with AL8 and have a possible new single from that to bring in the tour.

There's lots of singles that weren't big hits in her back catalogue she could rotate as a little surprise.
The Best Damn Thing Hot Keep Holding On Wish You Were Here Alice Rock n Roll Let It Go Hello Kitty Give You What You Like Fly Tell Me It's Over I Fell in Love With the Devil We Are Warriors Bois Lie I'm A Mess
Some are obviously more likely than others, like Alice if she played in Japan would work because it actually charted pretty well there but Fly is much more obscure and was a charity song for the Special Olympics so less likely to get pay anywhere

I think Keep Holding On is actually one of her biggest hits in the United States, even bigger than some of the songs she's playing officially on the tour.

Just saw that my Avril newsletter went to my spam folder. They sent me two emails with the code. Maybe that's why tickets weren't selling. But are you guys sure they aren't selling? Looks like they are just not at the rate that the first leg did.
