    So let me get this straight:
     
    1. She can't perform for more than an hour and fifteen minutes at most (and that's when she feels like performing for more than an hour and not cutting down on show time).
     
    2. She literally shows up late to each and every concert.
     
    3. Has an eponymously named tour, and performs like 5 songs at most from the album. But decides to recycle the same setlist from her past three "tours". Instead of singing new songs, she does covers and brings people on stage to take the attention away from her (which I'm not actually complaining about she actually brought (or will bring) Legends on stage with her! But it actually cuts down on show time, which could be use to perform newer songs).
     
    4. Either does small acapella versions of the other songs from the album and/or relies on fans to remember the lyrics and has this "fuck it" attitude when they don't seem to remember them, nor does she seem to remember her own lyrics herself... 
     
    5. Shows up on stage with the ugliest, most grandma-ish, Little House On The Prairie meets The Handmaid's Tale clothes she can find (her style on stage is debatable though)
     
    6. Seems to be flustered or annoyed to be on stage. #vapegate
     
    7. Not always on top of her game as far as vocals go. Also, doesn't she seem to care for hitting notes and relies heavily on the ever loud backtrack or her tour lyfe babiesTM to take over.
     
    8. Seemingly only interacts with the same five stans that literally attend every single one of her shows (that's on her, but it sucks for people who are looking forward to that one interaction with her for the first time (and also probably the only chance they got too)).
     
    9. Ridiculous price tags for her ugliest, most lackluster merch to date (literally stuck a "Venice Bitch" patch on a Dickies jacket, tagged it 150$ and called it a day    )
     
     
    What a time to be alive and be a Lana stan. 
     
    She never was the most amazing live act, but there was somewhat an attention to detail, or she actually seemed to enjoy performing for her fans. But it's all gone downhill... wow.

    Agree about the clothes, they are not that ugly per se. But they are not concert material for sure.
     
    But as of 4,6 and 7... didn't she throw a fit because she lost her vape? And also got upset twice at fans for not knowing the lyrics? Like that's her job to do that lmao.

    Hmmm, yeah she did. But I haven’t seen any video footage or anyone outside of LB say that she said fans don’t know the lyrics (yet?) so I’m taking that with a pinch of salt.

    maybe i’m biased because i throw a hawaiian shirt over everything, but i feel like with the beachy vibe of nfr she could start wearing outfits like hawaiian shirts with jean shorts or hawaiian shirts over simple white/black dresses. super low effort but it fits her new music better than her current obsession with grandma dresses

    her backup dancers are so much more interesting to watch than she is and that’s a problem when it’s her fucking show. (i love ashley and alex and i don’t blame them for her lackluster performances, i’m glad they keep things lively while lana moans over the loud backing track)

    so fucking glad I never wasted my money or effort trying to buy a ticket to see her this era, the lack of professionalism... FAR too much it's almost disgustingly disrespectful. I would have never thought she would become like this back in the paradise era when she was giving every bit of energy and emotion and looking genuinely happy to be on seen on stage...
    fans and publications really need to start openly criticising her I'm not saying she needs unwarranted BTD era level hate but fans and journalists need to speak out and say "hey you're performing like a lifeless LA zombie popstar who doesn't even know the words to her own songs who can't go 5 seconds without huffing her bedazzled vape, recycles sets, shows up an hour late looking like a soccer mom who just got done with her hippie holistics nutrition class, hides behind her famewhore backup dancers and charges even more every tour for that just gets even shittier in quality" 
    I'm just so disappointed in her, she needs to wake up.

    I don’t agree with 6 and 9. I haven’t noticed her being annoyed (but I know some of you think so) and the merch is actually pretty good for once in terms of variety - crop tops, posters, bags, the obligatory album t-shirt and a (dull) jacket. But yeah, they’re very overpriced.And 5... yeeaaahhh, I don’t exactly think the clothes are ugly, but they’re not really concert material either. But maybe that’s cool and what makes (this older) Lana Lana.

    If she can't remember the lyrics or gets tripped up on them, she should consider a teleprompter.  Take a queue from Matt Berninger of the National - he uses one and their concerts are incredible, and different every night.  There's a lot more spontaneity and he definitely seems more comfortable on stage.

    For the moment everything takes a back seat to this. Joan Baez? WOW JUST WOW. I feel lucky to have seen Adam and Sean but this is quite amazing. Thank you Joan for agreeing to this.
     
    Lana on the other hand. Please full sets, 90 minutes minimum. Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse! Say goodbye at the end of the show. Wave to everyone there, front back side. Stand there and let your fans love you. It's part of the deal.

    She keeps saying she's "lucky".
     
    There are countless other artists who would give anything to be in her position - to have the opportunity to play sold out shows to thousands of adoring fans in beautiful venues. 
     
    Yet she turns up (late) and half-arses it. Lucky? Yes. Grateful? Doesn't seem like it.

    I don't accept #2 as an excuse. It's not like she's being expected to remember meaningless words - these are the lyrics that supposedly mean something to her. So unless her art means very little to her, then I expect her to remember the damn words. If she doesn't, then I expect her to revise them before she tours.
     
    I really don't think that that's asking too much.
     
    She does shit like this and then wonders why people don't take her seriously.
     
    It honestly makes me wonder if her heart is really in any of this. I also feel like it's a bit disrespectful to the other people associated with this album, most notably, Jack. I mean, he worked on these songs with her, and from what I can tell, he takes his work very seriously. Sis can't even be bothered memorising the fucking words to the songs they created together. I don't know if I'd be really pleased if I poured my heart and soul into an album and the other person stopped giving a fuck when it was time to showcase it, but maybe I'm crazy.

    “Hello, children,” Baez said by way of a greeting. Judging by the lack of loud applause (it was incredibly loud most of the way through), many didn’t know exactly who Baez was, but it was clear that her guitar-playing ability was appreciated."
     
    How could people not know who Joan is? She's a living legend.

    honestly, i really hate how noticeably rude she's becoming. i've always admired lana because she's so sweet with her fans, but making a huge deal about her vape being missing is minor, being late is ugly too. her vocals have dwindled and she's just WAY too comfortable in humming and letting the audience sing, bar these last couple of shows. if she doesn't want to tour, why not pull a kate bush or something and only perform every so often instead of giving a vibe that you really couldn't give a fuck?
