I have some stuff from yesterday in my stories & highlights Avril MCR 2024, if anyone is interested about what happened on stage. Just small parts from our 5 minutes on stage, recorded by a friend in the crowd. Also some parts of Losing Grip, Hot and Smile. And as someone menetioned, yeah she somehow cut the bridge of When You’re Gone. No idea why, at first I thought she may have forgotten it but the band played normally so surely they communicated about it. www.instagram.com/dmnkklbrt?igsh=MWlyOGh5eWF2bXVncA%3D%3D&utm_source=qrThat’s awesome, congrats! Her interactions with the fans are so cute and wholesome, her reaction to the little girl and the girl who got the tattoo was really sweet. How cool to get a signed skateboard out of it too, like this memento you’ll always have from the show! I feel like this was a really nice way of doing something special for the fans this tour and celebrating her GH/career with something really neat for the fans.

There seemed to be some sound issues at Cardiff too. Couldn’t hear anything out of the ordinary in the crowd but she was constantly fiddling with her sound thingy and asking them to turn things up/down. She sounded normal though, so I guess just issues at her end She is always fiddling with her microphone and the sound stuff. I do wonder why cause I have watched so many videos of Taylors tour and she's basically never doing that. Maybe it's a nervous thing for Avril touching that sound-thingy? Like playing with her hair whenever she is nervous? Cause if she actually has sound problems, maybe she needs to find a new sound person or better equipment...

I don’t think it’s a nervous habit because messing with it when it’s not necessary would throw off the sound she’s hearing in her monitors. But it indeed makes no sense why there’s always so many issues when they have a sound check and a technician to make sure the sound is good before the show starts. Maybe it’s because of some of these weird venues she’s playing, like playing in a colosseum or a castle, the sound might bounce off differently versus a traditional arena, so more sound issues? Maybe sometimes her in ears stop working entirely if the signal gets cut off from too much concrete/walls. Who knows.
That probably would honestly make sense since yeah Taylor rarely seems to have sound issues but she is playing in stadiums which all more or less have the same layout, most are open air so there are no walls to block signals. She has had the occasional issue though with mics not working or in ears cutting out. It happens, no matter how much of a sound check you do beforehand or how good of a technician you have, it just happens sometimes.

She's played with her mic pack since at least the HAW days. I remember noticing it then and wondering if Lyme had affected her hearing a bit, like making it more or less sensitive.

I've been reminiscing on Glastonbury (I probably will for weeks to come haha) but I'm so glad that in her speech before Complicated where she was saying it's taken her 22 years to get there that she added "well, it is about time"... for me it really shows some self awareness from Avril herself and I mean that in the best way. She's always received a mixed response and it's always pissed me off that the music industry, especially festivals who deem themselves to be too cool for pop music, have never given her the recognition she deserves.
After all, there are so many artists around today that have been inspired by Avril growing up, she really did change music a lot back in the day and it needs to be spoken about more.

I noticed that Avril is more open to talking about her impact.
During the interview to announce the Greatest Hits tour, she mentioned it's a "lame" not to have a Grammy after selling "50 million albums." What I like most about it is that she doesn't come across as bitter or harboring hard feelings, unlike some artists who also addressed the same topic of not having a Grammy yet and were a bit rude towards the academy or played the victim, claiming they were boycotted (sometimes they have their reasons to say so lol.) Instead, she's like: "I want it, I know I deserve it... but I'm still unbothered."
I feel like Avril is vain about some things, but at the same time, she's also humble about others. Some (maybe a few) big artists of her status would never accept secondary stages at big festivals, but she's out there doing it and drawing bigger audiences than the main acts. That's so cool.

Totally agree. She has always had underdog energy to be honest but she plays off it so well - it's a bit of a power move to have drawn such a ridiculous crowd at Glasto, way bigger than the Sunday night main stage headliner.
