that Hope live performance followed by that hologram and monologue was a historical moment actually ahead of it's time maybe but everyone will get it someday 

I get it NOW though what don't people get

history was made no joke

that was genuinely the most beautiful and unique performance i've ever seen. no complaints about a real artist bringing the house down with just her voice & poetry

johnnys burned out what??

you know she made sure that mic was ON

oh she’s taking ITTT

Just now, how the light shines in said:

guys she's number one trending on twitter and it's back to back tweets calling her an icon

Yayy!!

This is so funny. I’m also autistic and I’ve always thought Lana is as well LOL I’ve never verbalized that so it’s super funny seeing someone else say it 

thank you for this validation lolll. It obviously feels weird to speculate about it, but I've always just seen myself reflected in her because of it

or she's just nervous

100% could be that. this is a very personal theory, which also has more to do with her mannerisms and communication style in general, but i digress. I just bring it up because it's probably important to remind ourselves to have empathy for her eccentricities  

This is a bit random but feels kinda relevant -- As a high-functioning autistic woman, I am like 85% sure Lana is also on the spectrum so that's always been my justification for her bizarre performances (including/especially 2012 SNL).

I’m just making this up tbh but I lowkey feel like Lana also feeds from the energy she gets from the crowd and from the livestream I saw half the crowd weren’t even singing - again tho this is just what I saw and isn’t reality I know but I think this could have thrown her off too

It is technically her job to entertain the crowd. the audience also can't really get hype on a bunch of acoustic deep cuts

In 2 weeks you’ll think its iconic

ya to be fair I also thought her first show for the 2023 festival tour was a disaster (with the 5 min weird interlude immediately and bizzare costume/wig change) and it's kind of iconic now, so hopefully you are correct

Other than the technical problems, I think the main issue is that the setlist felt disjointed and messy. I think rearranging the songs a little could make the show work better... like, the intro was great, but then slow songs at the end? Put them in the middle and end with a bang!

Yeahhh - and the way this is common sense for all artists ever?? she must have insisted on this tracklist for whatever obscure lana reason. I can't imagine someone on the team didn't bring it up

She must have tapped her mic a few times but I thought there was a shooting my heart full dropped

I think there was some issue with her offstage spinny platform bc she was looking down, mad confused when that happened. Then, between hope and A&W you could hear someone profusely apologizing backstage

I also thought there was a shooting for a second, partially because the security was loud as shit on the livestream 

Just now, Pink Flamingo said:

will the set list change for next weeknd?

no chance

I do think playing all the uptempo songs first when she was so nervous and quiet was a mistake

and i'm sorry but WHY did we get bartender and Arcadia and not BLUE JEANS

im sorry but THIS is the place ive seen more negative comments LMAO

glad to hear that - the reason why is bc this is a safe space lol AND bc we are the people who were most invested

was that her first time singing without you live? I don't think ive heard it before. that was iconic. also- the hair, makeup, outfits?! obsessed with the backup singers and dancers outfits matching

she sang it a lot from BTD - UV eras

Just now, honeyslow said:

well we let our expectations snowball massively what were we expecting lmao ... tbh the intro gagged everyone, without you / west coast / doin time ate, she obviously had to sing her most famous hits,  she got in some of her favourite  ballads, candy necklace improv with jon ate, video games duet with billie ate, she got meta with the hologram, gagged everyone again with A&W.... the lows were low (see the sound issues and abrupt end) but the highs were high let's not be overdramatic 

needed to hear this

The guest section was so awkward though and the crowd was dead confused. 

Even Billie had to be like, can you all cheer for Lana?

This was a crazy night and I’m glad we were all here together  I’ll need proof tomorrow that the Hope hologram actually existed

maybe we all had a collective hallucination

nah the ending was cool and a super Lana vibe

I mean she for sure gave singer

the crowd watching her roll out - too stunned to speak

why were the intro/outro the best parts
