Sadly, it seems she won't be coming to South America for Lollapalooza. This tour can't just end in the US and Europe, right? By the way, I think her show is perfect for festivals. Her "solo" concerts almost feel like festivals themselves, with two opening acts given plenty of time to perform, and then she's the headliner with a total of ~2.5 hours of entertainment. This concept has been used by some pop-punk artists in joint tours, but in her case of course it's not joint. They used the same concept but she's the main attraction. I just hope she eventually drops the covers and performs songs like Rock 'n' Roll. Can't wait to see her live again. She’ll do solo run, it can turn out better for her fans anyways, she could do more than one show in Brazil for example, no Lolla limitations

What is the context behind her randomly playing Nobody’s Home? I just saw a video of the concert and she doesn’t even introduce it, just plays it and moves on. 😂 she sounded great though, I love her vibrato it’s gorgeous!
I’ve just seen a video of Losing Grip from the same show and is it just me but is she literally giving us some of her best ever vocals this year? The growth from last year to this is actually insane, whatever she’s doing differently it’s working.

Wow, I have been very busy the last three weeks and have not had enough time to read. I've enjoyed all your comments, thank you all for sharing your experiences! I love seeing that Avril sang Nobody's Home - it's like listening to the studio version! I love her interpretation. From what I have seen here in Spain and what I have read here and seen on YouTube, it looks like this tour is a total success. Avril has a fantastic voice and, in my opinion, the band is doing amazingly well.

She was literally right next to me. Frustrating. She was 8. I’ve been at this 22 years. I deserve it! She couldn’t even name an Avril song. 😭 Is it true she played 15 songs only - no smile, no don’t tell me, no nobody’s home and no all the small things?

So Butch Walker attended last night's show as well. He hung out with SP backstage. Nothing from Avril other than him uploading a story on MHE saying something like "can't help but nerd out to the song I wrote", which is kinda of...shady in a way? He keeps saying he wrote it but Avril was a big part in writing that song as well, if I'm not mistaken, at least the whole second verse was written by her. Not saying he was rude or anything, but something about it feels like he never let go of the past. He could've easily said "the song I wrote with Avril". I think it's the wording that makes it sketchy.

OK, I'm probably going to make myself unpopular here, but is this whole 'letting some fans come up on stage thing' maybe not such a good idea?
I mean obviously, if you get chosen, its AWESOME! But there seems to be some bad feeling from people who don't get chosen. Some people are getting upset about it, which I can sort of understand, and some probably get a bit angry. But you paid for a gig, and you got a gig, so really any other extras are a bonus surely?
On a more positive note, I'm loving the great comments about Avril's vocals on this tour. Our girl is on fire!!

Yeah it reminds me of the 22 hat Taylor’s doing on the Eras Tour. They mostly choose kids and there’s adults getting mad. Of course for these kinds of things we all want to be chosen but realistically in a stadium of thousands of people only a lucky few get that chance. Don’t let it ruin your otherwise fun night if you don’t get picked. I was quite far back so I knew going in I’d have absolutely no chance lol I’m also an introvert so the idea of getting pulled up onstage and singing a song I don’t really know while my favorite artist is right there sounds like a nightmare to me lol

I think I’d be nervous if I ever met Avril anyway, never mind on stage infront of thousands of other people. Also, not to sound harsh, but if people are getting upset or angry about not getting picked they need to get a grip. Why can’t they just be happy for those that do? She can’t bring everybody up, they should go in knowing the chances are slim. Honestly, some people are so immature, she’s doing a fun interactive thing each show and some fans still manage to find the negative. As a fanbase I think we’ve had a lot to moan about over the years but this is absolutely not one of them.

Saying she shouldn't do something nice for a few lucky fans because others complain and moan they weren't picked is the very definition of 'this is why we can't have nice things.'

If you are going to remaining shows. Skip simple plan vip. Just get fast lane. Get there early. And you’ll be in right when VIP is there. Save yourself some money.
Nashville was a weird show. The energy was off. Lots of fights. Lots of drunk people and security issues too. Avril and simple plan definitely were noticing and Avril was distracted at one point watching the drama go down. It was a lot of booze, two girls were pushing kids and older people.
It was NOt the typical crowd.
