The hair looks so bad though she looks great - she always does.
And the hair touching the guitar stream makes it more obvious that the guitar is just a prop.

To be fair I think fans have given Avril a lot of support. People say fans want the whole MFP thing from her but in reality that’s only been 2 albums, TBDT and LS. GL went down well with most fans, as did HAW. AL a little mixed but that’s fair given that album is all over the place. She’s flirted with country recently and most fans have been open to that idea. Theres an obvious split in the fan base between people who want more LS/TBDT style albums, those who want her to go back to UMS and those who want something different, so she’ll never 100% please everyone, but I think the fanbase has been widely supportive of all her releases, despite them all being quite different to eachother. SO true, it’s only 2 albums…. I don’t get why she’s only known for that, but indeed, people want TBDT 2.0 or LS 2.0 or an UMS 2.0. if I look at myself I like something new, I like when she experiments with new sounds and genres. I’m up for anything new. I don’t want a 2.0 version of a previous album. But if it is like that I end up liking it anyway lol xD

Hey guys It's been a long time since I last posted here! Dunno if anyone will remember me Life got very busy and I decided to make a big career change to benefit my mental health and overall happiness. The change was scary and time-consuming, but it was definitely for the best and I'm finally having more free time again! Anyway, I've been catching up on Avril news lately, and I do have a lot of negative thoughts and concerns, but upon reading through this thread I saw that all those thoughts have already been voiced quite heavily (deservingly so), so I guess I'll come back with a positive post instead and say that it is absolutely AMAZING to see how much she's been able to re-establish her career the past few years. Say what you will about the LS era and the current GH era, but at the end of the day you can't deny it's incredible that she's now at a position where she's able to sell out big venues and have her shows look like this: Like, WOW! I can only imagine how exciting it must feel for her to play for such big crowds again as the headliner. And I've been loving her speeches during the shows about how grateful she is that people are still showing up for her 22 years later - she comes across very sincere and very endearing when she pauses to address the audience like that and reflect on her career's journey. My biggest hope is that this excitement and motivation can lead to something great. I hope she uses the momentum to release a new album once the GH tour ends. Yes, she'll always be a nostalgia act and she will always heavily rely on her legacy because, well, it works for her. But I haven't given up hope of seeing her put out an album that I genuinely love and obsess over like I did with the first two albums. I sincerely hope she writes songs that play to her strengths and showcase a more mature side. Also songs that she knows she can sing live! Watching her perform Losing Grip so flawlessly each night reminds me of the greatness she's capable of when she ventures into that Alanis-esque territory with a wailing quality to her vocal and more expressive singing. More of that on the new album would be amazing! On a finishing note, I'm going on a work trip to Barcelona in July and I managed to extend my stay to watch her show there! I'm so excited for that. It's been 20 looong years since I last saw her!

I read the Kia Forum seats over 17,000 people, so it’s absolutely wild she sold it out (though I think LOTS of celebs were there like Lindsay Sterling and a bunch of her friends like Travis Barker’s son, Iann Dior, Jenn, Ashton Michael, etc.)
I would love to see the box office numbers and see what the biggest venue is she ends up playing. My venue seats about 7500 indoors but can accommodate up to 30,000 with the lawn seating.

For those who had the early entry VIP Package, what time did you get into the venues? Did they let you in much before than other people?

It's been 20 looong years since I last saw her! welcome back! I agree, it’s great to see her selling out venues this size. Hope she keeps the momentum going and releases AL8 off the back of this tour, no waiting around for a year! I’m excited to see her in Cardiff. I think she can do better with the setlist (have I mentioned that? 👀👀😅) but it’s 20 years since i saw her for the first time and she’s bringing Simple Plan who supported her when I saw her 20 years ago too (and I really do like them). It’s going to be ALL the nostalgia!
