All this positive feedback is making me excited to see her in Manchester on Wednesday… I wasn’t that excited at the beginning of the tour but I so hope she keeps the same kind of energy for her next shows. On that note, does anyone have any idea or thoughts on what time she’ll play? It starts at 5:30 pm according to the ticket but simple plan are supporting and I don’t want to arrive too early as I no longer care about being at the front (I’m getting old 😂) It says doors open 17:30, I’d say something like 18:30-19:00 Phem 19:45 to 20:30 Simple Plan 21:15 to 22:45 Avril But they didn’t release anything official yet, but seems like last year it was like that for some bands, curfew is at 23:00 Oh ok, wasn’t expecting her to play so late to be honest but that works better for me anyway! Thanks for the heads up!

I think there was a missed opportunity to offer some signed CDs, that would have helped drive sales a bit more. And not offering a single new song basically didn’t entice anyone to stream. Debuting inside the top 100 is good, but she could have debuted even higher if they just did these couple of basic things. I like that she didn’t tack on a new song. Especially if it wasn’t a “hit”…. The big win with this all is having the most significant songs of her legacy remastered and featured on a vinyl collection. It was already a stretch to include I’m A Mess and Bois Lie….so this will sell for YEARS to come. It has the songs people are looking for/to have all on a single playlist/vinyl is smart and giving the people what they want. In 10 years time, bookmark my post because it will grow to sell more than self titled, HAW, and Love Sux worldwide/ and beat all 3 in certifications. This is her legacy, so far, encapsulated.

I was sure she'd chart. A top 80 is far from bad! Do we know how many copies it has sold?
"Normani's 'DOPAMINE' debuts at #91 on this week's Billboard 200 (12k sold)."
This was for last week, and it was a highly anticipated album, especially from pop culture stans in general.
So I assume the GH has sold around ~15k?

I was thinking the same. This GH is probably one of her last chances to have a gold-certified album from the RIAA. She could've promoted it better to try for at least a top 50 or 30. I think she has enough potential to achieve that. But for sure, streams alone will be enough to allow her to have a certified album. It's not that bad of a move, especially in the long run to add a new accolade to her credentials.

The biggest shows of all time of Avril's career. Production, vocals, energy and positive critical acclaim as Queen of pop-punk.
I'm so happy with GH Tour!
We also have great live performances! With the public going crazy... What was a crowd at Glastonbury?

How many times does Avril say 'da' in 'Things I'll Never Say?'

Have the other reissued albums charted in the US? I think 5K is enough to chart below the top 100, but I just saw people posting about this week's new releases.

It’s funny how her Glastonbury performance has spread. Like random people who have no interest in Avril have been like “I’ve heard she had a huge crowd at Glastonbury”. It came up in the office today (I’m dressed a bit weird cos I’m going straight to Cardiff after work lol) and people have mentioned her Glastonbury performance.
Also, Cardiff tonight, yay! I’ve dug out my tshirt from the Bonez tour in 2004 which somehow still fits. Can’t wait!

BBC Radio 1’s top presenter, Greg James, said Avril was his highlight of Glastonbury and has made her artist of the week on his show. Sooo happy to see the love, wasn’t expecting this reaction.

That's why people want to do Glastonbury so much. It's so big and so well known that a good performance they're can have a huge impact and Avril well and truly delivered

This is amazing actually because radio 1 has a younger demographic listening, great exposure to an audience who may not have even been born when she came out.
