Is she on the last song already? Seems like she is ending the show early.

I really thought DYK was going to be country because she kept singing BUS with Nikki Lane at random places in the south and even previewed a new song with her. She sang 2 country songs with Jack Antonoff a few years ago as well but she still never released a country album. I could definitely see her releasing a country album some day, but it is hard to predict when that will be since she changes her mind so quickly.

Bartender may be hard to get rid of now that she does her hair during that song. Not sure what other song would work for that.

Honestly at least stand by your man is a little more lively. For free is such a boring choice.

I can’t believe she did 2 covers.

Lana is on a mission to turn the whole setlist into just piano ballads.

From the songs that she has sound checked so far, it looks like it will be the same setlist. She even did stand by your man again.

What was her biggest solo show before this?

Yeah I think the people that expect a completely new setlist for every date have unrealistic expectations. I still don’t think it’s the right choice to cut some of her more up beat/classic songs to keep a cover and songs like Bartender on the setlist though. Especially for a festival date. It seems like people enjoyed the show overall though which is what matters.

This setlist was kind of bad considering she only sang 15 songs.

What happens if there is no surprise?

She would have been a perfect person to bring out at Newport a few weeks ago.

Didn’t she announce NFR’s release date at a festival? Or was that something else? It’s probably just her adding a new song to the setlist though.

Amazon music doesn’t have Ethel Cain on there but Outside Land’s post does, so there may be a small chance that she gets added tomorrow.

Not sure if this was already posted but these are the production/instrumental credits according to one record store.

Honestly Ocean Blvd is a better song than Tulsa so not too mad about it.

Watch this be the one time that she actually plays a song that wasn’t on the usual setlist.

I hope she wins but don’t they usually give it to whoever shows up? I remember she lost to Machine Gun Kelly one year.

I’m glad that hope is on the setlist now and that Lana continued to do her performance despite the criticism. I do think Bartender should get switched for VB or any other Norman song though.

Sometimes it’s the fans that have been around for 10+ years that act the most entitled tbh.

The last picture on that post is so funny.

Yeah she was late to the soundcheck too which apparently delayed the whole entrance process at the festival.

It was just a little awkward the way she was dragged off stage for the last song. I can image it was even more jarring for this audience since it’s not typically something artists would do at a folk festival.

Consequence of sound dragged it too and called it tone deaf. https://consequence.net/2023/07/lana-del-rey-newport-folk-festival-review/ I didn’t think it was that bad but probably not the best idea to do at a smaller folk festival.

Rob’s edit though…
