Umaniac

I'm honestly starting to genuinely believe that this bitch hates touring, let alone performing. You know what Lana, you could just release your music, then go into obscurity with your sorority sisters and only appear in public when you visit that church and go out to take your matcha whatever. She's honestly doing herself a disservice right now, I genuinely feel like there are more and more fans that are getting tired of her lazy approach to literally everything. Not a hater, just stating a fact. It's just lacking in general these days, it seems... 

I can't believe cherry is still a thing
This girl is so 2017

THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! This performance is beautiful and it wouldn't be the same if she was mimicking the studio version. Look old money, love,  get free, salvatore. They don't have a single bad performance cause they have their own live version without backing vocals.

imagine how tired we are

This! It used to feel more natural. Now it feels like she is a robot

$100,000 for a round trip on a private plane?!!! Wow. What a waste of money. She can use money like that to make nice professional music videos as oppose to the ones made on her Iphone. 
 
I think she purposely goes on stage late. It cuts her stage time and she sings less songs. 

Right? Total waste of money at this point.
 
Yeah, she's in the Win Edwards clan, the stans that buy VIP packages for the whole tour, get front and center each time and get in the way of other fans so they can have their millionth selfie with Lana. Creeeeeps.

I was already considering not buying tickets to her concert if she came to my country because of the setlist alone, but that attitude is a major turn off and now I'm feeling even less tempted to attend. I've already seen the exact same concert live two years ago, I'd rather buy tickets to see an artist who I've never seen live before and who actually puts an effort like Taylor or Billie, sorry Lana.

"4 songs from the record are there"

Cool, 5 songs from BTD are there. A tour called Norman Fucking Rockwell. Isn't it 5 for NFR anyways? 
 
She's been performing Mariners, Doin' Time & Venice Bitch for a while now. So NFR and Bartender are the only ones that were left unheard. Nice preparation, such passion.
 
Not to mention the way she sings through only half of the songs on the setlist most of the time, and relies on the backing track for the piano driven Bartender.
 
She can rehearse Ariana Grande songs but can't be bothered to sing more of her own.

Such a boring approach. So Byron is basically saying "people will pay for anything".
 
With that logic, you could play the entire new record live and everyone would be happy.
 
Just so weird, surely she is proud of her new material? I think the thing that irks me is not only that the set list is the same, but so is the arrangements and instrumentation . . . bring back the strings pls.

disgusting attitude from byron... he understands the complaints are valid but he know he'll still collect them dollars no matter what 
 
I just can't approve of this laziness when you charge such pricey tickets 

That was honestly a really shitty thing to say on his part, basically saying that they are fully aware that this setlist is worn out and stale, but as long as people spend their money and the shows are sold out there will literally be no effort made to improve the setlist. They really are after our money. Such a lazy and asshole-y approach, yikes.
 

Alex and Ashley are indeed talented but they serve no purpose at Lana’s shows other than to distract from her, they just don’t fit on stage. Even during BTD when they’re in the back they’re distracting because they’re like pumping their fists and dropping it low. The music can speak for itself. And yeah at Jones Beach there were a few times when one of them was blocking the view of her, like pretty much all of OTTR. I know it seems to help Lana to have friends onstage with her but they need to go

i'd like to apply to replace b*ron

The dancers aren't going anywhere, for better or worse. 
 
I do wish there'd be some attempt to coordinate their outfits with Lana's, though. I don't necessarily mean that they should wear long floral dresses if sis wears one, but there should be some sort of uniformity. The fact that their outfits are so different just makes them seem more out of place, imo. 

The little choreography they have for Bartender is so freaking embarrassing. 
 
They are wasting their dancing talent on Lana's shows. They should be dancing for the likes of Madonna or JLo, not Lana. What do they care anyway, their getting paid to dance to songs that aren't meant to be danced to. 

That sucks. You didn't say anything wrong but the truth. He probably blocked other people too because other comments are gone. 

This! It used to feel more natural. Now it feels like she is a robot

Get rid of the fucking dancers, bring back the strings and some real backup singers. Jesus Christ! If she can pay $100,000 for a private plane trip to her shows, she can afford some damn string players and backup singers! Then to add a Joni M. song instead of a NFR song into the set list is stupid. Hello - CALIFORNIA! CINNAMON! Come on now. Unless Lana was planning on being on stage for a full 2 hours, there's no reason to add another cover song on her set list. 
 
I adore the woman but she frustrates me. 
 

He has a shitty attitude.
 

 
Going by the previous instagram videos, the band pick the songs and Lana approves it. 
 
They don't care do they? They get paid regardless what they play. His attitude sucks. People need to stop buying tickets. When it affects their pockets, that's when things change. 

Honestly, Lana's choreo doesn't match her music at all and I wish she never added it. I miss when her shows were just her singing audibly with no backing track and doing her few moves here and there (like when she used to drop it while singing Body Electric, but it looked natural and not forced).
