Never seen Lana perform, or am even a stan of hers, but I imagine Lana's point is that performance art can happen in many forms, not just the performer themself on stage performing their own music. Allen Ginsberg is an Icon. Anyway, I think Lana might be pointing out that the writer's angle is pretty damn narrow.

I think you were making a joke not actually asking for a response but holla holla girl

That sounds like a completely fair review? 

But also, who is giving 80 minute concerts? If that show isn't at least two hours I'm out  only 12 of her actual songs? What?

i fail to see what other angle they coukld have taken away from that show; it's a short show, 14 songs, 2 covers, and 3 hologram segments where she isn't even on stage. And that's not even mentioning the low energy she always has on stage.

If she wanted them to write a more substantial and in-depth review, she should have given them more actual material in the show to write about..

the sudden realization while u wrote it that it's all basically a waste of time is the funniest thing ever 

But yes I get your point as well

I adore her, but from the videos and setlist presented I'd be extremely disappointed if i went in blind for the price they were asking for. Thats even shorter than a festival set. She's not dancing, not doing any acrobatics.. she could preform for at least 100-120 minutes and have those interlides so she can catch her breathe, drink and have a costume change.

Yea the stage is gorge, but that's where the ticket value stops.

[candydarling 1,984]

that's not a short concert, it's pretty standart. only big pop dance divas do it around 2 hours. most festival shows are 60 minutes long. but for a stadium show and considering she doesn't move around much, that sounds too little.

[mamo 20,353]

I genuinely love Lana, she's one of my favourites alongside Gaga however this tour looks completely uninspired and the setlist is just tired. These are some of her biggest touring shows she's ever done and it just feels so rushed and not in alignment with the legacy she's created. I expect more from an artist of her calibre...kind of glad I didn't get tickets now.

Is Lana the new editor in chief of The Irish Times?

A set in a festival is completely different from a full single concert. 1-1h30 is fine if it's a small venue with a lower price. For a stadium concert with an artist this big, and for that price, it's not.
