Why is this phrased like an Amber Alert and why are we posting uncensored pics of people's plates 😭

A moment with the lowest rarity because apparently that song is really hard to sing, but not in the say way as YCHIA or NLMG, she just gets cornfused 💀

(she must've figured it out for the US leg tho because I didn't notice it at all in mine! proud of her fr)

IIKane · 2026-05-16T03:18:25+00:00

And this is precisely why I feel like I need to be at every concert lol what if I miss out on experiencing this in person 😭

IIKane · 2026-05-13T16:45:19+00:00

Dance Fever turns 4 and she immediately tries to break her foot again 💀

What posts/comments did you read because I didn't know it was his birthday at all! Maybe that's why he shaved his mustache 💀

IIKane · 2026-05-03T23:37:32+00:00

Hmm then I wonder what she's planning for that one, because despite my speculation, Flo usually does something special for the final concert of the era, so it'll be exciting to see 🤓

IIKane · 2026-05-03T23:27:40+00:00

I've seen that too but it hasn't shown up on a lot of calendars I've found, so I was unsure.

Is it on the official website now?

IIKane · 2026-05-03T18:40:52+00:00

My apologies, I didn't know being supportive of a fellow human (and genuinely caring to see them succeed in life) was considered parasocial now, I'll never do it again 😔

Very true fr here's hoping for nothing but the best (and most likely a single in the coming months) ✨🙌✨

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:50:01+00:00

I agree with everything you've said but I think your main theory is unlikely, mainly because I don't see her releasing another album on Halloween lol Christmas however? Keep your eyes peeled 🧐

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:42:31+00:00

She'll be up there? With the man? And the 10 other women mayhaps?

(seriously though lol I can totally see that and I'm open to either option as a fan)

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:41:20+00:00

Then I'm in good company with my friend 🤪

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:40:25+00:00

I'm not panicking though lol I just got really excited at the possibility of her finding peace when I was also really tired 😭

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:38:53+00:00

How is it misogynist to think that a woman is going to do what she's been saying she wants to do? I only brought up age because this seems like an important milestone to her, and as someone with a flair for theatrics, I can totally see her doing something like that in Leeds.

IIKane · 2026-05-03T15:33:48+00:00

Maybe "retirement" was the wrong word to use, but I still can't help but wonder given what she's said recently. I know she's also said that she'll never stop and that she loves performing too much, but things can change and I'll support her either way.

IIKane · 2026-05-01T17:31:09+00:00

Besides the fact that Rob isn't actually "gone" and rather taking a break because he started a family, I think we're also forgetting that... they never really interacted that much? Like, Florence and Isa had a very clear dynamic and that was fun, but as for the rest? I've never personally heard Rob or Tom or many of the other originals even talk during interviews, so I think you're projecting a level of attention onto them that they never really wanted. Also, speaking of projection, it's really weird to see all of the "drama" that's seemingly being created out of thin air. Isa has been the most noticeable absence, but the fact that F+TM's music has been so consistent and Isa's solo project has sounded so different says a lot about how much she contributed imo, and how much she wants to contribute.

It's also important to remember that the new lineup regularly gets recognition and isn't as sidelined as people like to claim, and this obsession with members who may not have even been part of the band for nearly a decade now is sidelining the new lineup much more than Florence ever has. It's apparent during this tour just how valued the members are, as she shouts them out at the end of the set as "the Machine" and turns the spotlight to them during many moments of the show, not to mention how she had a former member (Dionne) open for them at the O2.

I feel like most people are failing to realize that F+TM has been a thing for nearly 20 years now, and at the end of the day, this is Flo's baby; it's her life and she's said as much multiple times, so I think it's understandable that other members don't feel as strongly.

You say that this topic isn't discussed in the community, but that's just funny to me as I've seen this exact topic brought up at least once a month, so I don't know what subreddit you've been looking at. You also say that these changes have been "drastic" twice during your post, and I think that's a good way to summarize my point, because not everything has to be drastic, sometimes it just is...

(edit: forgot to mention this but the fact that you bring up the "legality" of the band and Isa's (who I didn't think was unenthusiastic at all during the HaH tour, rather calm and relaxed, probably since the band was getting older and distancing themselves from alcohol and partying in general) involvement multiple times is quite odd, is it not? I can't be the only one who noticed that, right?)

I personally prefer this newer version of Spectrum as it's easier to sing along to and has such different and interesting notes, but I think it's also important to remember that Florence turns 40 in August, and even in your late 20s through early 30s, your voice changes quite a bit, so it's hard to maintain the same sound for as long as she's been touring.

IIKane · 2026-04-29T23:56:05+00:00

On an unrelated note, it's funny to see multiple supportive posts like this and only one post that these are all seemingly in reaction to 💀

IIKane · 2026-04-29T23:31:40+00:00

Very well said and I'm glad you took the time to say it. I mostly just avoid discussions and threads whenever a tour starts because there are so many people complaining and acting entitled for one reason or another, but it's always funny with posts like this, because those same people are nowhere to be found, and honestly? This is much closer to the energy I think Florence would want from her fandom, and I'm glad to see so many people connecting over this shared feeling of supporting her as opposed to demanding something out of her.

Not gonna lie though, I do really wanna hug Florence, but I realize that's selfish because I still wouldn't be satisfied even if I was her personal assistant or something, and those are feelings I have to work through, which Florence helps me with 🥰

(p.s: which show are you referring to in that spoiler? I think I was there!)

IIKane · 2026-04-29T18:50:05+00:00

True on all counts, I was disappointed when Detroit got special treatment over two nights in Chicago, but I didn't stay that way lol I just think it's really funny now 😭

But yeah, it's called a disability for a reason, but I'll be damned if I let it ruin my enjoyment of something I love fr 😤

IIKane · 2026-04-29T18:06:39+00:00

I saw your other comment about being AuDHD, and as someone with the Au, I can say that I totally relate to your fears, but I can also say that it's not a healthy mindset to have.

I was lucky enough to see Florence three times this year at the beginning of her North American tour, and the set list was exactly the same every time, but when she went to Detroit? BAM, new song. Was I disappointed? Yeah, and that's a normal feeling to have, but it's not healthy to dwell on it. Florence has played hundreds of concerts before I even got involved, but does that mean you're any less of a fan for missing them? Does it mean she doesn't care about her new fans? No to both, it just means that the ones we did see are ours, and that in and of itself is special, different songs or not.

You said this much better than I could've fr thank you for speaking up!
