EXODUS 9,914 Posted June 10, 2022 I read many tweets and comments from people that attended the show saying the whole thing was a mess, she was singing out of tune, tech issues and that there was no good coordination between her and the band.

Is all that true? From what I read the band seemed to be struggling with some of the songs (possible that they had to make last minute changes if someone caught COVID) but nothing about her sounding a mess. I also read that she went on "late" which could have been out of her own control but may have contributed to the performance getting cut short. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EXODUS 9,914 Posted June 10, 2022 I could understand that she blames Capitol Records for the problems regarding funding her projects, promoting and releasing her music. Specially releasing her music. Ever since she announced Masochism she has been VERY VOCAL that the lack of releases is because her label won't let her release her music... Yet there is no finished album. How come? She kept promising music in 2017-2019, as if the album was pretty much ready to get released but her label would sabotage her. But now that is 2022 and her music is starting to get released now she claims the album is not finished yet and that's why there is no release date. Now the problem is her and not the label. But what about how her last two shows have been pretty messy? I'm talking about Pitchfork 2019 and now Primavera 2022. Now there is no label behind her actions or decisions to blame. It's now just her. Or is she now blaming the venue? Is she blaming her bad luck? Is she blaming tech issues? What's she's blaming now? Or is she finally ready to accept that if something goes wrong it MAY be her own fault and she needs to up her game? I just fin it very weird how everything is happening around her and I don't know what's going on with her, but I don't blame people that says that she's still struggling with drugs, because that's the only reasonable situation that I might think for this lack of professionalism and bad moments. It's just plain dumb that it just happens to her and it keeps happening just to her every single damn time. I just want her to fucking win and impress her fans just like her peers do. 18 Quote Hikaru Utada • BANKS • Rina Sawayama • Aly & AJ • MARINA • Björk • Kate Bush • Marion Ravn • Carly Rae Jepsen • Hilary Duff • Charli XCX • The Cardigans • Mitski • Phoebe Bridgers • Allie X • Caroline Polachek • Meg & Dia • Dia Frampton • Olivia Lufkin • Poppy • Grimes • Melanie Martinez • Lana Del Rey • Bat for Lashes • Ayumi Hamasaki • Paramore • Hayley Williams • Evanescence/Amy Lee • ACO • LIGHTS • Alexz Johnson • Avril Lavigne • Florrie • Flyleaf/Lacey Sturm • Tove Lo • Sky Ferreira • HANA • Daine • Foxes • CHVRCHES • Lorde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jord 3,481 Posted June 10, 2022 Sky sounded good, there was no such thing as being “out of tune”? LMAO. She forgot the lyrics to a post-chorus line in You’re Not the One and messed up a bit but it was cute, no big deal. She got onstage 25 minutes late and probably there were tech issues because while we were waiting for the show, they had to change the microphone that was there. She asked for Nobody Asked Me three times and the people started playing random songs and she was like????? Someone in the audience yelled “what’s going on?” and she replied “beats me, I don’t know.” They probably cut her short because Nick Cave was gonna perform and the stages were like super close to each other so it’d be a mess. Either way the show was great and she looked beautiful 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And ugh, it sucks that her band messed out. Poor Sky. 3 Quote Hikaru Utada • BANKS • Rina Sawayama • Aly & AJ • MARINA • Björk • Kate Bush • Marion Ravn • Carly Rae Jepsen • Hilary Duff • Charli XCX • The Cardigans • Mitski • Phoebe Bridgers • Allie X • Caroline Polachek • Meg & Dia • Dia Frampton • Olivia Lufkin • Poppy • Grimes • Melanie Martinez • Lana Del Rey • Bat for Lashes • Ayumi Hamasaki • Paramore • Hayley Williams • Evanescence/Amy Lee • ACO • LIGHTS • Alexz Johnson • Avril Lavigne • Florrie • Flyleaf/Lacey Sturm • Tove Lo • Sky Ferreira • HANA • Daine • Foxes • CHVRCHES • Lorde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just 🤦🏻♂️ lol no you don't need to move around the stage a ton to be dynamic, but she looks lifeless, no energy or intensity 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kristine 634 Posted June 11, 2022 Have none of y’all ever watched sky perform? Honestly from the vids I’ve seen she sounded great, looked great and seemed happy. she was obviously anxious but was so happy to see her out there, being a grunge goddess. And she’s added two unheard songs to her setlists, so I’m happy. Tired of all the negativity, cuz we have all been here for years of that. Let’s keep this going, and pray she has some US tour dates to come and video soon. I agree, I get tired with there always being some sort of issue, but I’ve read that she wasn’t actually late to the festival, so idk what to believe. Let’s see how these next shows go. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloringbooks 13,943 Posted June 11, 2022 Guardian was technically replaced by Downhill Lullaby if you think about it. She was talking way back in 2015 about how the first two singles from Masochism were going to be Guardian and a song called "Fire" (Don't Forget?), but obviously we ended up getting DL instead. 3 Quote I live for the visions I can't see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EXODUS 9,914 Posted June 11, 2022 I remember an insider mentioned that Guardian was scrapped from the album. Maybe that's why the song is not on the setlist. I really hope it didn't happen to Descending as well. I don't want Descending to become the new Pretty Dull. #LeakPrettyDull 5 Quote Hikaru Utada • BANKS • Rina Sawayama • Aly & AJ • MARINA • Björk • Kate Bush • Marion Ravn • Carly Rae Jepsen • Hilary Duff • Charli XCX • The Cardigans • Mitski • Phoebe Bridgers • Allie X • Caroline Polachek • Meg & Dia • Dia Frampton • Olivia Lufkin • Poppy • Grimes • Melanie Martinez • Lana Del Rey • Bat for Lashes • Ayumi Hamasaki • Paramore • Hayley Williams • Evanescence/Amy Lee • ACO • LIGHTS • Alexz Johnson • Avril Lavigne • Florrie • Flyleaf/Lacey Sturm • Tove Lo • Sky Ferreira • HANA • Daine • Foxes • CHVRCHES • Lorde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
