As I said, I think Lana, in her disappointment, may just drop Lasso without fanfare, the way she dropped Blue Banisters. We all know how she often loses enthusiasm for a project--which is understandable once something is recorded and finished and won't see release for another eight months to a year-- or gets in a muddle and compromises or radically changes the initial conception. She's already onto to the next project.

There's this interesting connection with Henry, Come On song. I recently found out on Instagram that Evan Winiker's (Lana's friend or ex-boyfriend or idk she still follows him on Instagram) dog died, like few weeks ago, Chuck and Rob sent their condolences and the dog's name was Henry. Well I didn't really think that the song is about a dog but maybe it is because I also found a post from February 9 where he posted his two dogs with caption "Henry & Honey forever ❤️❤️❤️" and Rob commented "Sounds like a country song" and my first reaction was 

What’s lana’s DNC gotta do with this? 

The only good fan version of this song I’ve ever heard … TYSM!!!

Thank you!! It’s from the best day of my life aka back in May when I partied with Lana at V12 club in Atlanta  I was hesitant to change it because tbh I don’t like how I look in the picture considering I sloppily did my makeup in the car on the way there skfnsk but it’s such a beautiful reminder of my happiest moment (on what actually began as a terrible day) so I wanted to finally make the change ♥️
 
Skfndks sorry, I made the post on my laptop so it looked better there, but I wanted to have a larger font to really get the point across. I also keep LanaBoards at 75% on my mobile browser (I use Safari) which tbh I recommend you all do, the site as a whole looks so much better at a lesser zoom once you get used to it x
 
Love you too babe - and all of you, seriously. Even our troublemakers, I have so much love for you all. This community is so special to me and it’s all because you all make it what it is. Even though it can be really stressful at times to be the owner, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. It’s always my honour to continue hosting this place for everyone and I don’t take it for granted x
 
Unfortunately, I don’t see this as an option, but I’ll reach out to the forum software company we use to see if this can be implemented. I’ve actually been preparing for a pretty big site update that will introduce some new features. I was originally planning to do this back in May, but we kept running into issues with our hosting server provider, so I postponed it. I still haven’t been able to find another host that’s suitable for us but I still really want to do the update, so I may attempt next month. I’ll make a proper announcement when I get closer to doing this as I’ll have to take the site offline for some hours while I make the updates x
 
I want to reiterate this - this post was definitely influenced after cumulating events rather than one single isolated event. The mod team has been discussing this for awhile. Things weren’t dying down and drama was still sparking all across the boards, so this post was necessary. However, I am happy to see some members taking accountability for their actions. To members involved in recent drama, don’t be afraid to ~work it out on the remix~ and perhaps DM some apologies to members you feel you may have upset. I really do hope things will calm down from this point forward as I would love nothing more than to see LanaBoards go back to the safe, fun, and kind community that I know we are and have been over the years x

So basically we just need the Lasso lead single and pre order to save us
 
It has been so dry around here despite us getting a new song and video 16 days ago but that is what happens when Lana goes completely silent lmao…Lana Boards gets crazy and suddenly we are all political correspondents

Yes! Peace! Let's make love not war!

Hi all,
I wanted to check in with you all about the recent rise in drama that the mod team and I have noticed over the past couple of weeks. It appears that drama on the site among members is at a peak, so I wanted to pop in and remind you all that LanaBoards won't tolerate certain types of behaviour.
It seems that the drama is especially high in other artists' threads and in world news threads, especially when it comes to hot-topic debates. While LanaBoards welcomes opinions and discussions of different viewpoints, it is important that these opinions are shared and discussed in a respectful manner. As stated in our rules, LanaBoards will not tolerate any posts that are meant to be purposely inflammatory (flaimbaiting to intentionally start an argument) rude, hateful, insulting, or otherwise crossing a line, and members violating this rule will be warned and given restrictions at our discretion. This is something the moderator team is going to be taking very seriously as it is our mission to have LanaBoards be a safe and welcoming space for all.
Something we've especially been noticing a rise in is personal attacks towards other members and people including other artists, which is something we won't tolerate. Let this serve as a reminder that behind the usernames and profile pictures, we are all real people with real feelings. There's no need to make things personal. Please be mindful and respectful of this when communicating with other members. Again, we do welcome varying opinions and healthy, constructive debates, but please keep these respectful. Think before you press reply.
Something else to keep in mind is that not all intense debates need to be made public, especially if they're veering off-topic of the thread. We encourage users to make use of our personal messaging system to have private discussions, but again, please keep these respectful.
We understand that news is slow at the moment on the Lana front so tensions are a little high, but please don't let this translate into disrespect towards others. 
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns - you all should feel comfortable to reach out to me or another staff member at any time about anything. We are here to help and keep this place safe and enjoyable at the end of the day.
I hope to see things become more peaceful. I'm sending you all lots of love and I hope you all enjoy your weekend x
Let's work it out on the remix~

Thank you, GLF. I'm looking at Lasso the opposite way due to her interview remarks 6 or 8 weeks back and nothing since---that perhaps it will be released with a minimum of fanfare, radio spots, videos, promotion, etc. due to her feeling that she's been beaten to the gate by other artists. 

I hope it will see release, and this year. As I've said here before, country music is the oldest American genre short of fife and drum music, so why she would be bothered to be a part of a trend, or be seen to be a part of one, I can't understand. For almost any artist in any genre, making a country album could hardly be seen as original.

Confirmed info or our usual weekly fear?
 
i wouldn’t discard a short pre-release era (as an announcement and lead single in Sept for a end of October or November release). Many artists / labels are taking down that route this year, after the vinyls have been sent to plants for a couple of months. And let’s face it: even if she announced the release date three weeks prior, we’re crazy enough to buy three vinyl variants, no matter how broke we are  But if she’s still in the midst of working the album, then I agree with you, I don’t think it’s coming this year. 

For me, that's true many times over. 

A brave thread indeed. 

Full agree— The Greatest is up there with Yayo, Cola, Ride, Video Games, Old Money, 13 Beaches, Heroin, Yosemite, and If You Lie Down With Me in my book—among the best of her [released] songs to my ear. It would have made a perfect album closer, just as 13 Beaches should have opened LFL.

I've been saying this here about OB--the album--since its release; I'm glad you hear it the same way. Some or most members find its sound immaculate. Let The Light In is almost ruined by the muffled sound, and it's my favorite on the album which, admittedly, I don't care for much.
