ryanripley 86,575 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 why do artists announce tours BEFORE the album has come out? genuine question i would have thought they'd give us the real lead single first since Accelerate was poorly received https://goo.gl/xMgMvJ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runway 27,876 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 She better not suffer from "production delays" this time considering she's doing tiny 3-5k capacity theatres Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Yeah, I know that the label has no input in the tour issues. Just my guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both oddly very different. 1.) They're so big or so hype right now, it doesn't really matter if anyone has heard the new music (or just like one song). They just want to work that into all the promo going on for the album release and performances/etc. Especially since touring is so vital to profitability in the music industry now, it's really important to focus on it and get it right why everything is still hot. 2.) More in Xtina's case, the hype is NOT there, but maybe used to be, and they really want people to buy tickets on faith potentially without hearing the new music (this of course being an executive's decision, I'm sure all artists believe in their next work) and also why people are talking about said artist, they want tickets to be readily available. I guess it's pretty close to #1 too, just the other end, ha. disco stick tester, inquire within Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
