I think it's safe to say the European leg of the tour was a big success. She got lots of great reviews, really showed up for Glastonbury and even put in some surprises like the orchestra The two stops in Spain were key to gain back a lot of lost fanbase. She was fantastic and people really had fun and went crazy. She has to keep doing what she is doing. An european tour has to have a stop in Spain, so she should at least include one stop for the next album's world tour. We can't wait for so long again (almost 20 years since last concert is crazy). I've been Avril's fan for a long time. I was very active in Avrilspain forums indeed in the 2000s. But after the suspended concert, with no inclusion of any stop in the next years made huge damage to the fan base. We showed that we're still here.

So I said f*ck it and I'm seeing her in Chicago 🤩 and I'm very excited! I'm traveling all the way from Guadalajara, Mexico just for this show. It'll be my second Avril concert in 10 years after I saw her in my city the last time she came with "The Avril Lavigne Tour" (it was amazing). I'm a little nervous about traveling alone to such a big city but very excited to see her again! Hotels are crazy expensive in Chicago but I managed to get an Air BnB. I bought a resale GA ticket and added the fast lane add up so hopefully I'll make it to the front. Don't know how that works exactly but I'll get there early. I hope I get to meet some cool fans in there! 🥹

Avril joined Goldfinger onstage last night to sing Here in Your Bedroom and celebrated Nick Gross’s birthday.
It’s good to see she and Feldy are still close. I know she’s been on tour and hasn’t been able to work with him, but the fact they hadn’t seemed to post about each other or anything made me wonder if they were still in touch. I’m not a fan of the way he produces Avril’s voice on songs and I’m not sure I want to see another album solely produced by him, but I think their friendship results in some good work from her and he pushes her creatively. When she sang with him last night she didn’t dodge any of those high notes. I think he pushes her to not be lazy and as a result I think it’s helped her confidence and LS into this GH era has been some of her strongest eras to date.

Totally agree, especially about the vocal production part. But these days, I was also wondering if LS's vocal production might actually be some kind of production concept, because he also produced her voice for Bulletproof, and it sounds at least a bit better. Maybe they though more youthful vocals for LS would be the direction for this album... but I think now they need to align it better.

IAM is also a case where her voice sounds great. I do see some flaws throughout the album in where her voice sounds too autotuned or robotic (which she doesn't need IMO), but overall it's not something that compromises my listening experience or how much I like the songs because the production itself is pure perfection. Can't say a single bad thing about the musical aspect of it.

Pollstar updated with boxscores for Avril's other three US dates. I don't have access since it's a subscription based, but Tour Data should publish them today or in the next few dates. So far we're only missing the boxscore for the opening night. I doubt we'll get any for the European stand-alone concerts...

I think she's focusing on her legacy strategically, and due to the success of the tour, she'll keep going as she clearly has more strategies up her sleeve that were on the works even before the tour... like the documentary, the Sk8er Boi movie, etc. One or two years ago, she mentioned recontacting her 'movie agent,' and now she's investing more in audiovisual projects, like joining the Deadpool soundtrack to strengthen her catalog. I think only after all this, she'll release new material. My guess is she's attempting a "rebrand" that isn't really a rebrand but rather a repositioning in the market after a series of flops for an artist of her size, relevance and influence among the new generation. Regarding the GH, I think it would be easier to add a new song than to add four DTA (that's under Warner) songs to a Sony album, and she did it. I think she may just be building anticipation for a completely new release while focusing on her legacy... and also that she finally noticed that being completely absent is a useless strategy nowadays. imagine if she had the promo strategy team like charli xcx have now with brat... for me it's so genius and avril carrer could be super updated jus with a good promo company ofc even if it is just nostalgia vibes, just unfair avril deserves better and more( any new album could have been more successful with a better team and love sux also is kinda underrated. but yeah we will see what's gonna be in the future, im so happy for her to going back to the festivals and etc.

She needs to release albums with more quality and better songwriting. Its getting difficult to relate with her recent work when you're +30 years old.

I also wondered what if Avril...but nah she's Avril and that's not what she does lol. However, I like what she's done with the GH Tour. I hope they continue down a good path for AL8. I think her success right now is a lot based on the nostalgia kick everyone is on. I hope there's no long breaks that break her momentum again. She's doing so good even without music but at some point she needs new music.

But the overall vibe of it is indeed reminiscent of that playful, rebellious attitude of her. One of the reviews from one of her concerts in England also mentioned that her setlist has the same vibe as BRAT... and I think BRAT resonates well with the 30+ demographic, as Charli herself has been in the industry for over a decade, and her audience is typically 25 to 30 years old. It’s surprising that people still associates Avril’s best albums strictly with seriousness after knowing her catalogue and style. I love Love Sux as well... and I don't think it being more 'immature' was the problem. HAW (the song) that had good promo on radio and huge playlists, including TTH... and didn't performed well compared to her previous hits, though it's labeled as a mature song. I think there are so many layers. Maybe I agree that nowadays Avril is just a nostalgia act in terms of success.
