“Art imitates life” “Super proud of this amazing band and crew. Just played 22 amazing shows and had the best time ever with lots of adventures in between ❤ Last USA date is in Honolulu on the 28th.” http://instagram.com/p/BfUBn6ahCjQ/ “We’re gonna miss Kali but we’ll see her next month in Colombia Felt so lucky to have her with me on this tour ❤ Plus more pics of my girlies who will be w me in Hawaii! Then Colombia Argentina Chile and Brazil ” “See you on the 28th in Hawaii”

“Last night was our only California show of the official tour. And man did you guys show up for us- from LA to Mexico we sold out that mega arena. this was a cool show for me. Felt a lot of different emotions as I was singing through the songs of the last 5 records and also I got to say little bit about what ‘get free’ was based on (the concept of the hero’s journey by Joseph Campbell) I got to talk about my love of California and the fact that it’s you who have brought me and my band (who have been together for seven years) on to such a big arena stage and for that I’m truly grateful. We have one more show left on the mainland and then we’re off to Hawaii” http://instagram.com/p/BfRLwwvBRlv/ “Crossing the threshold from the ordinary world ✅”

She performed Get Free with band last night & also spoke about how the inspiration for this song was from the concept of a hero’s journey by Joseph Campbell.

Once again, no one speaking about how she did Get Free with band this time!! Wow!

this is my aunt’s name lol (but I mean probably she’s a really big fan)

At her show tonight in San Diego, Lana declared that she has a new song titled 'Sylvia' that is inspired by Sylvia Plath! This along with Bartender.. could possibly mean a new project sooner than we thought!

Looks like Chuck is there supporting Lana tonight! She live-streamed some of Change & put up some videos of other songs on her story -- including West Coast!

Apparently she soundchecked West Coast!

Siren Song Inspired by her California surrounds, chanteuse Lana Del Rey finds that life imitates art Lana Del Rey has always been a California girl at heart. Even before she put down roots in Los Angeles, the New York native had an affinity for the West Coast way of life. “I’m very liberal and I always have been. I also really love the organic lifestyle and all the outdoor activities. I’m a real happy transplant,” says the singer-songwriter over the phone. She’s calling from Columbus, Ohio, one of the stops in her world tour, “LA to the Moon,” which kicked off in January in support of her latest LP, the Grammy-nominated Lust for Life. Del Rey made the move to L.A. in 2012, partly inspired by a greater migration of friends from the music world, including her longtime collaborator, producer and songwriter Dan Heath. She had spent the previous four years “looking for that community [of musicians] that I had heard was in New York when The Strokes and people like Adam Green of The Moldy Peaches were there. I just kind of hadn’t found it. I think a lot of people moved West.” “It’s where I have the most space to be creative and have time alone and have a lot of privacy—but at the same time, have a lot of amazing, artistic friends” The music icon quickly discovered what she was looking for. “It’s where I have the most space to be creative and have time alone and have a lot of privacy—but at the same time, have a lot of amazing, artistic friends,” says Del Rey, who rose to fame with her 2011 hit single “Video Games.” N°21 SHIRT, $1,165. JENNIFER FISHER EARRING, $225. GLYNNETH B JEWELRY RING (LEFT), $89. LILLIAN SHALOM RING, PRICE UPON REQUEST. That streak continued with back-to-back studio albums, starting with her 2012 major-label debut Born to Die, which landed in the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200 and never left the list. (It recently earned the distinction as one of only three albums by a female artist to spend 300 weeks on the chart.) Later that year, Del Rey released an EP, Paradise, which earned her a Grammy nod, as did the song “Young and Beautiful” on The Great Gatsbysoundtrack. Ultraviolence, Del Rey’s first album to reach pole position on the U.S. charts, arrived in 2014, followed by 2015’s Honeymoon. California has been a source of inspiration for Del Rey in the last few years, often from behind the wheel of her truck (“It’s brand-new, it’s not a nostalgic, 1950s pickup,” she quips. “I’m over my old-car obsession—I’m happy with Bluetooth”), driving along the Pacific Coast Highway. The tony San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, which was devastated in the winter mudslides, was always a favorite destination for Del Rey to recharge. “I’d say the last two years have been relatively peaceful,” says Del Rey of her current frame of mind, which has since seeped into her work. “I think that’s kind of why my newer record has a little bit of a brighter tone to it, whereas before I was definitely working a lot and on the road 24/7,” she says. “I’m still traveling a lot but I had a lot more to work through a couple years ago, I guess.” LOUIS VUITTON BLOUSE AND PULLOVER, PRICES UPON REQUEST. SPRWMN PANTS, $795. ANITA KO EARRING, $2,000. That shift in perspective shines through on ballads such as “Change,” the last song Del Rey wrote for the album, which addresses the fact that she was seeking change in her life but didn’t know how to go about it. “It was just more like a small bubbling of wanting to turn things around aesthetically in my art and personally as well. I really like the idea that life imitates art and I’ve noticed that in my own work. I knew that good things could follow if I put it out there that I was still trying to grow.” Born Elizabeth “Lizzy” Woolridge Grant, Del Rey admits to being “one of those people who annoyingly was singing before they were talking,” she says. (“I’m that kind of singer—singing all my sentences. I still do.”) Growing up in Lake Placid, N.Y., Del Rey always knew music would be an important part of her life, but “I didn’t really think I could do it, and sort of have a real career.” After attending a boarding school in Connecticut, Del Rey graduated from Fordham University with a degree in philosophy—all the while chasing her dreams on New York’s nightlife circuit as Lizzy Grant, releasing her debut EP, Kill, Kill, in 2008. But it wasn’t until she took on the enchanting stage name of Lana Del Rey, and honed in on her signature retro-glam image (think beehives, plumped-up lashes and winged eyeliner) that the artist began to rack up both musical accolades, and a cult-like following—not to mention more than a handful of infatuated fans. (During her Orlando tour date, police thwarted a kidnapping attempt by one.) BOTTEGA VENETA DRESS, $16,400. DAVID YURMAN RING (LEFT), $7,200. TITO PEDRINI RING, $9,500. TIGHTS, STYLIST’S OWN. While Lust for Life doesn’t break free from Del Rey’s signature, melancholy-tinged songs, it charts new territory with songs such as “Coachella—Woodstock in My Mind,” which reflects on the current political climate. It’s also the first time Del Rey has featured collaborations with other artists on her albums, including The Weeknd, Sean Lennon and Stevie Nicks (the latter is featured on the ballad “Beautiful People Beautiful Problems”). “I think I was too nervous to do it. I wasn’t sure what people would say. When I got Stevie Nicks to sing with me I wasn’t sure they’d think I was worthy of a Stevie collab, but she was so fabulous in person and she was a fan. So it kind of made me put my guard down a little bit.” On days Del Rey is scheduled to perform, she does an entire run-through of the show with her band, before watching a performance by the likes of Whitney Houston or Ariana Grande. “It could be anybody but just something that I can sing along to, to warm up my entire range—to go from my lowest octave, like in ‘Ride,’ to my high Cs and Ds in a song like ‘When the World Was at War We Kept Dancing,’” she explains. VERSACE TRENCH, $3,675, AND CHOKER, $1,225. ANITA KO EARRINGS, $385. JIMMY CHOO SHOES, $695. TIGHTS, STYLIST’S OWN. Part of her warm-up also includes a guided meditation for 1 hour and 40 minutes—the same length as her show. “I try and kind of balance out how much time I’m going to put out to sort of put that much time in. I mean, saying it out loud, the whole thing sounds kind of crazy, but I don’t think I would do it as much if I wasn’t doing arenas,” she says. “Now I’m going to sound so L.A.” Standing before packed stadiums, Del Rey is surrounded by a set design that takes cues from her California surrounds, including an oceanscape from Big Sur, projected onto a screen. After all, Del Rey’s world has become her stage. Just take the opening lyric of “Lust for Life”: Climb up the H of the Hollywood sign…In these stolen moments, the world is mine.” Source For more photos & photoshoot discussion, check the photographer's thread.

About Yayo tonight - "This is a song I really like to do about an old friend of mine who isn't with us anymore. His name was Rob and we used to live, uh, well I lived in New Jersey, he lived in a different part of New Jersey. I remember one day he came back with the most giant snake on his back and I was like, "what the hell did you do??" It's funny, like, within 10 minutes - I couldn't really play chords, so I sort of made up my own chords, and I wrote a little song for him."

Tonight’s look -

Apparently she said that she "needs to learn it by Hawaii!" She also did Million Dollar Man again & a bit of Wayamaya!!!!!!!!! Wayamaya: "Yeah, I'll do it down there! That's a good idea!" http://instagram.com/p/BfFW02HASFP/ Art Deco - http://instagram.com/p/BfFWzScHswc/

Off the bat, this reminded me of Super Movie

“Yesterday in Memphis was a dream. Thanks for the tour of Graceland and also we had the best time at Phillips studio and Sun studios. Met lots of new friends and I even got my new license and served us up some coffee with John at Sun.”
