    If Lana doesn't release any more music between now and the tour, what is your ideal tour setlist? 
     
    Mine would be;
     
    Cola (love this as an opener)
    Cruel World (shortened, that song is way too long in my opinion)
    Blue Jeans 
    Body Electric (begin acoustically-like at the El Rey, and then pickup into the rock-heavy version) 
    Gods and Monsters 
    West Coast 
    Born To Die 
    Ultraviolence 
    Brooklyn Baby (please???)
    Money Power Glory
    Fucked My Way Up To The Top 
    Black Beauty 
    Guns and Roses 
    Ride 
    Shades of Cool 
    Summertime Sadness 
    Young and Beautiful 
    Video Games 
     
    Trying to keep it as realistic and optimistic as possible. I think I put far too many Ultraviolence songs in the middle...

    The point is to create your own setlist, not just sit and talk about mine!

    I'm going to post my story here too! I also got a photo with Lana and was front row in case you don't have time to read it.
     
    So I got to the venue at like...1pm I guess, and I saw a long(ish) line. However, I recognized some people from the Seattle show. One girl Janet knew I had Silver and asked me to give Lana a book she made. Then a VIP Nation Employee, Natalie, came out with wristbands. I realized that for VIP I was #12! I thought I was at least 20-30 people back. We could hear Lana soundcheck Blue Jeans and Serial Killer, but that's all. Then they setup merch. There's no coke necklace anymore. I bought the lighter and the shirt that's printed allover, also please note the lighter doesn't have fuel! One girl in line broke her lighter trying to figure out how to use it. 
    At 4:00 Natalie lined us up. I got the VIP gift bag, and then some of my friends from school who also had silver showed up. They didn't get with me in line because we were numbered, but they were the last there and only numbers 33-34. I would really recommend the Silver package, everyone got barricade.
    Then we walked into the venue and I saw that the steps were off to the right. I got a spot in front of the steps initially, but then I saw there wasn't enough room between the steps and the barricade so I moved down a bit. It ended up being the perfect spot!
    Courtney was great. So funny and super interactive. She kept yelling at girls for wearing their flower crowns. She passed out flowers and shared cigarettes with the crowd. However she played a little too long, a manager even came onstage and asked her to leave. 
    The wait between Courtney and Lana was pretty short. I had made some art for Lana on a pretty large piece of paper that was hanging over the barricade. When she came out she waved right to me! I know that there's no way to know for sure but I could feel the eye contact.
    She looked so good. Reminded me of Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Her energy was really happy and positive, it seemed like she was having such a good time! Then after Cola she came offstage. She stopped for a few people before me, and then she was taking a picture with the guy next to me (between the girls from school and I). Her hair was right in my face and I even got into his picture a little. 
    Then Lana turned around and I was like "Lana can I please give you my art?" I think she said something about liking it but I don't really remember. She handed it to the security who put it on the stage, and then I asked for a hug. I whispered in her ear asking that she read the letter, and she promised she would. Then I said "We took a Polaroid last year, can we take another one?" And she leaned in and we took the photo. I don't think the overall meeting Lana experience was as good as last time, she seemed more rushed, but she still was so sweet and genuinely seemed interested in meeting us. 
    Then she went back onstage and continued with the show. I will say the show was way too short. She didn't need to cut songs, she could've added songs. I know she will never play some of my favorites like TIWMUG, Florida Kilos, but I would've loved to hear FMWUTT, Old Money, Gods and Monsters, or Body Electric. 
    Her vocals were really spot on, I loved the stage setup so much. The lighting and visuals were a step up from the last tour. I still would've loved to see the original Paradise Tour setup, but this came pretty close in my opinion!
    It took forever to get out of the venue and I didn't get home until like 2:45-3am, as I live 2:30 hours away. The show was so amazing though, and getting Silver VIP really paid off!

    i know what ya mean. i posted pics and a video on twitter, and lanaconcerts and lanadreycrew on twitter reposted them. which is cool i guess, but i wish they would've said something like "creds @ my twitter name". DelReyLatest on twitter though tweeted my twitter name after reposting the video i took so that was nice at least..

    I'm so annoyed! I posted Polaroids from the show on my Tumblr and Twitter and tumblr fan sites keep reposting them. I don't want to have to like watermark my pictures I just wish I got some credit.

    I didn't see you at all! Not even in line. Weird, as we weren't that far apart. Did you get any photos of Lana meeting fans? I know some people looking to see if they were in any.
     
    She said that! I don't have it recorded but I promise she said that. I tweeted it and by the time my tweet finally sent (no service) it was everywhere. She said it right towards the end. Something like "We have a new record coming out in September." Swear to God!

    I got front row dead center too and I didn't get a selfie with her cause she turned around to go back on stage after meeting only 2 people to the right of me . I had the most amazing experience I did not expect to get front row I got really good pictures and videos! I posted them on Instagram follow me at jennaydelrey . Also at the very end before she left the stage she leaned over the stage and talked to me and the guy next to me a bit and blew me a kiss and I got on the big screen my boyfriend said he saw lana talking to Me on it !!

    I'm going to post my story here too! I also got a photo with Lana and was front row in case you don't have time to read it.
     
    So I got to the venue at like...1pm I guess, and I saw a long(ish) line. However, I recognized some people from the Seattle show. One girl Janet knew I had Silver and asked me to give Lana a book she made. Then a VIP Nation Employee, Natalie, came out with wristbands. I realized that for VIP I was #12! I thought I was at least 20-30 people back. We could hear Lana soundcheck Blue Jeans and Serial Killer, but that's all. Then they setup merch. There's no coke necklace anymore. I bought the lighter and the shirt that's printed allover, also please note the lighter doesn't have fuel! One girl in line broke her lighter trying to figure out how to use it. 
    At 4:00 Natalie lined us up. I got the VIP gift bag, and then some of my friends from school who also had silver showed up. They didn't get with me in line because we were numbered, but they were the last there and only numbers 33-34. I would really recommend the Silver package, everyone got barricade.
    Then we walked into the venue and I saw that the steps were off to the right. I got a spot in front of the steps initially, but then I saw there wasn't enough room between the steps and the barricade so I moved down a bit. It ended up being the perfect spot!
    Courtney was great. So funny and super interactive. She kept yelling at girls for wearing their flower crowns. She passed out flowers and shared cigarettes with the crowd. However she played a little too long, a manager even came onstage and asked her to leave. 
    The wait between Courtney and Lana was pretty short. I had made some art for Lana on a pretty large piece of paper that was hanging over the barricade. When she came out she waved right to me! I know that there's no way to know for sure but I could feel the eye contact.
    She looked so good. Reminded me of Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Her energy was really happy and positive, it seemed like she was having such a good time! Then after Cola she came offstage. She stopped for a few people before me, and then she was taking a picture with the guy next to me (between the girls from school and I). Her hair was right in my face and I even got into his picture a little. 
    Then Lana turned around and I was like "Lana can I please give you my art?" I think she said something about liking it but I don't really remember. She handed it to the security who put it on the stage, and then I asked for a hug. I whispered in her ear asking that she read the letter, and she promised she would. Then I said "We took a Polaroid last year, can we take another one?" And she leaned in and we took the photo. I don't think the overall meeting Lana experience was as good as last time, she seemed more rushed, but she still was so sweet and genuinely seemed interested in meeting us. 
    Then she went back onstage and continued with the show. I will say the show was way too short. She didn't need to cut songs, she could've added songs. I know she will never play some of my favorites like TIWMUG, Florida Kilos, but I would've loved to hear FMWUTT, Old Money, Gods and Monsters, or Body Electric. 
    Her vocals were really spot on, I loved the stage setup so much. The lighting and visuals were a step up from the last tour. I still would've loved to see the original Paradise Tour setup, but this came pretty close in my opinion!
    It took forever to get out of the venue and I didn't get home until like 2:45-3am, as I live 2:30 hours away. The show was so amazing though, and getting Silver VIP really paid off!

    At Wamu they had 2 random lines, but the line on the right got in first. At least the first part of that line did, I remember they let those of us who had been there all day (or maybe like the first 50?) in before everyone. WaMu was really a shit show.
    I've been to Gaga shows with VIP General Admission. They always have 2 separate lines. I'm sure that fans will just distinguish their own lines as they come! 
     
    I don't think there will be! And if you're there first I would suggest breaking off into two lines.
     
    I talked to a woman on the phone and she said to lineup by the box office, but she also said the main gate...confusing. I won't be there first so I'll just find you guys! Usually the venue will know where the fans started a line and respect that. 
    However, they told me they weren't sure if the pits would be divided in two. I know the seating charts say that, but the lady on the phone said that Lana/crew would decide that as they come. I could see them just having a normal GA floor like all her shows.

    Omg YAAAAS That she's still doing Black Roses because people shit on it but it's one of my favorites so I love that Charli apparently loves it to choose it as one of her only 4 TR songs.
     
    But EW that she's not doing Lock You Up,..
