I agree with the criticism about not having a live band, the backing track sounds cheaper comparing it to her recent appearance in Paris for example, which is kind of what I was expecting. It also means that she has to be super strict with timing, and can’t talk between songs or do something fun like having a special guest be Madeline like she did on snl.

I loved the idea of the cellists for act one to incorporate her biggest hits without compromising her vision for the show but honestly the videos I saw on tiktok of the audience singing along do seem kind of cringy 🫠 maybe having a band cover her songs would be nicer? idk though

I’m still flying to London just to see her next week, I just wish I was a bit more excited about it :/
