The setlist thing isn’t that serious but can we normalize not making excuses for Queen not introducing new songs she’s never performed before lmao. These “it wasn’t a tour for fans” comments, which have been the excuse for years now, are old. Christina could absolutely pull out never before performed songs and still have the audience vibe with her. Artists do it all the time.
True.
Her team could start polling her fans, and come up with amazing insights to have varied, fresh setlists.
But I guess she is honestly convinced that she has to have 70%+ hit songs or else people won't like her shows...

Both nights sold out. Not bad for a girl with no album sales.
I'm so happy and proud of her for the sold out shows. that's amazing considering ther'e no album or single. and her last hit was Say Something.
when the show ended I heard a soccer mom say she loved it but wished she sang the "Mulan" song. So even the casuals wanted more.

Could barely hear anything on those livestreams, so will check out for videos later. The setlist was what I expected. That's what you do when you are the guest performer with an orchestra, you play your hits. Not everyone is a stan, and know her sets by heart. I wish she did one song just for the fans, but that's ok. Love those new Genie and WAGW versions from what I could hear.
Since this was The X Tour redux, my problem with it remains the same I had with the tour. I think she needs to do full versions of the songs and less costume changes to keep a better flow.
I agree on the costume changes, maybe only change costumes every 4 or so songs. I think she was changing after every song... Also I did not like her climbing that Mt. Everest prop. Takes too much time. Give my girl a lift or something. I still enjoyed it but think there was more potential. I think tonight will be better... wish I could go again.
I upgraded to terrace seats! it looks like Hollywood Bowl added more seats for sale today (maybe from season pass holders passing? )... now I have to sale my old M2 seats.
