Future Lovers 6,903 Posted May 9, 2024 Author Share Posted May 9, 2024 The Tortured Poets Department set is probably the best thing she's ever put on stage. The moving platform? The trippy psychedelic visuals throughout? The giant UFO that makes her hover around the stage? The visuals of Old Hollywood and a vintage theatre marquee? The cabaret inspired costumes? The asylum nurses? The marching band? She really gave this set everything. I expected it to be disappointing but it's actually now the best part of the whole show. Super jealous of everyone getting to see her on this leg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like TTPD section is actually her finally giving main pop girl theatrics at the level this sort of tour demands. I wish I had more videos of the imagery but genuinely her art department outdid themselves on this one from a conceptual and execution level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk Midnights and TTPD kinda disillusioned me to her (in terms of the lack of artistry, imo) so I've been finding it increasingly harder to like her, but I'll probably take a look because I like some of TTPD at least So long ggd, it was nice while it lasted.

LateToCult 40,896 Posted May 9, 2024 Share Posted May 9, 2024 Will never forgive that heifer for cutting “tis the damn season” from my show to bring out Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos for No Body, No Crime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't tell you it's good if it wasn't because I'm not here to defend an album I'm not passionate about LMAO She came hard with it. I wasn't looking forward to the set, but it blows the rest of the show out of the water. The visuals are truly insane, so please look around for them, I can't post as many as I want to. There's the one segment that has visuals that almost look like hand drawn pencil drawings come to life on the screens and the lighting on the live stage reflects it. There's this the UFO part where she's like caught in the tractor beam almost as it throws her on this platform around the stage. That moving platform is super cool to watch in motion in general. And of course the cabaret inspired segment for I Can Do It With a Broken Heart with the dancers in the top hats with the canes and the giant feathers and the old Hollywood imagery in the background and the classic broadway style lighting. It's truly amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProfessionalClown 10,647 Posted May 10, 2024 Share Posted May 10, 2024 Literally the best set she’s ever done. The entirety of Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me? is some of her best live vocals ever and she’s giving it her ALLL. She hit some great notes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayden 144 Posted May 10, 2024 Share Posted May 10, 2024 You might like or dislike her music, but you can't deny she's serving so hard this era! 🔥 Also, don't know about you, but TTPD has been growing on me lately. I've been listening to it a lot while writing my poems and stuff, it really helped me to get in the mood. I still prefer Midnights, of course, but she's a very talented songwriter imo, and she absolutely showcased that really well in her new album. Some of the songs are such a vibe once you get used to the sound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 26,842 Posted May 10, 2024 Share Posted May 10, 2024 Is the dark zombie visual from the last tweet for TTPD set? It seems like it's the zombie look from the beginning of the iconic LWYMMD video Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monet 949 Posted May 10, 2024 Share Posted May 10, 2024 Omg she should be using this aesthetic in a 100% TTPD tour. And let The Eras be her own thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
