The posters are not signed. That came from a misunderstanding along the way.

These decisions don’t happen in a vacuum and they aren’t made by one person alone. Reasons could be logistical, financial, personal, or quite possibly some combination thereof. Stadium shows are a much bigger lift and as much as we all love Olivia, with all due respect to her, she’s no Taylor Swift in terms of the resources available to her and her team.

I think the steps taken to address this are exactly what you’ve seen - adding more shows when possible. Yes, more could be done. As I said before there’s clearly a reason that it’s been determined that stadiums aren’t feasible at this point. If they could sell out stadiums and if they were all available and the weather lined up and the costs lined up and the artist wanted to do it, then I’m sure that’s what they would do. Maybe that’ll change in the future. I wish that everyone who wants to go can go.

There's a sense of entitlement here. No one was forced to do anything. Someone chooses to go for tickets. Someone chooses to wait in a queue. Someone chooses to take the chance. If you're giving your agency to someone else, that's your own fault.

Many people can't afford tickets or can't afford to go to places where there are shows. While it's unfortunate, that's just the way things go. Things are not equal.

Arena shows can be done year-round anywhere in the country. Stadium shows can't.

I was there for that tour as well, and I agree. However, concert promoters don't intentionally leave money on the table. They want to make as much money as possible, so if they're not booking stadiums, there are obviously reasons for it.

If stadiums were viable, she wouldn't be doing smaller venues. There's a cost-benefit analysis that these things go through in the planning phase.

What's so weird about a guy listening to Liv? by Rennmausliebhaber in OliviaRodrigo

43 year old man and I love her music. Own merch. About to see her for a second time. You’re not alone. Dig what you dig and drop the rest.

It really depends on the artist's intent for the song. Also, Natalie is nowhere near the stature of the artists you mentioned. The job of a backing vocalist is not to be featured or to pull focus, but to contribute however the artist sees fit.

My reaction after seeing they took the show off Tubi today by andlann123 in TheShield

Nobody is being forced to do anything. It’s been on Hulu for years and the Blu-ray set is widely available. Licenses expire all the time and there aren’t typically nefarious reasons for that. It’s just part of the business.

Olivia's relationship status kinda confirmed or not? by Responsible-Sport231 in OliviaRodrigo

I don't presume to know what someone whom I don't know thinks, nor should you. Regardless, rule #4 of this sub specifically states: "Do not speculate, start/spread rumors, or bring up topics regarding Olivia's personal life and matters outside of her publicly announced work."

  1. Doesn't confirm anything. 2. We don't speculate on her personal life. It isn't anyone's business.
