Moonlight Nation Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) Hi folks! Just wanted to share this beautiful collection of pictures I found on Twitter. The production value and set design for this tour is truly otherworldly! The man keeps raising the bar visually with each subsequent high-profile performance, it's insane! I've seen so many wonderful clips of him performing too. His energy and confidence are at an all-time high, and I'm living for his enthusiastic dancing and endearing silly moments. He's having the time of his life, and we love to see it. To think so many were insisting he'd have to cancel the tour or return to arenas... Tears from OXOH taste the sweetest. I have a few thoughts on the setlist, but I'll save them for tomorrow since it's already quite late here. All I'll say is I won't stand for the ongoing disrespect towards X-rated classique "Or Nah", and that if there was one song I'd replace in the setlist, it would sadly have to be "Gasoline", because it's the only one he seems to be struggling with live. Either he opts to use an autotune effect thing like Travis Scott does, or it might be best to drop it (hopefully for "Too Late" ?) or reduce it to a brief transition before "How Do I Make You Love Me?".

This set list is interesting. Alone Again as the opener is a choice. I definitely would have wanted Wanderlust if I was going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@michael Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Are there any dancers on this tour? I know that’s not really his style but I feel like a pop star stadium show should have dancers, even if he doesn’t do choreography himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not "dancing dancing" like in a pop girl concert but they are on stage moving in sync. if you've seen pictures, it's the people covered in red. It definitely adds to the overall production and aesthetic of the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael196 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I just got around to watch some of the songs, he butchered the first half of smashaline , I'm so mad and did her seriously skip his best song??? wasn't it enough that he let it get overshadowed and die without bothering to do anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tix prob are cheaper and if you follow the singles 85% of the setlist are singles and hits. I told someone else a while back to stream this cause covers most of the setlist.

(the little sandcastle represents my excitement at hearing the song live, only for it to be destroyed by The Weeknd's otherwise rare struggle delivery ) Seriously, I have no idea why he seems to be having so much difficulty. I haven't watched the Amazon Prime concert yet for prior reference, mind you, but I thought the lower register wouldn't be hard to replicate live, since it seemed like it was at a comfortable range for his voice. It's so frustrating, since not only it's an incredible banger I adore, but one I was actually hoping to be the opener for the tour, which would have set the atmosphere incredibly well. Thank goodness "Alone Again" was picked instead, because I reckon there's nothing more awkward than giving questionable vocals on the very first song of the set. Here's to me hoping he replaces it with "Too Late" or "Hardest To Love" eventually. ?Just imagine the possibilities to transition them into "How Do I Make You Love Me?" 17 hours ago, Cheers said: The back to back punches with The Hills, Often, Crew Love, Starboy, Heartless, Low Life, Or Nah, Kiss Land, Party Monster... Jesus, grab my wig, babe. Yes! He knew exactly what he was doing with that segment of the setlist! I still cannot believe so many fans are frustrated about it. I know it's reminiscent of this year's Coachella set, but the positive reception was so overwhelming that it was basically a no-brainer to integrate it into his stadium tour as well. I understand the disappointment of missing out on "After Hours" and "Dawn FM" 's deep cuts (+ the unjustly robbed "In Your Eyes"), but it's not Abel's fault his collection of hits and smash features is so iconic and beloved. And honestly, considering the gamble that was switching from arenas to an all-stadium tour, it felt like a clever move to highlight the familiar and recognizable tunes to encourage casual listeners + locals to tune in. Just my take on it, of course. ? Edited July 19, 2022 by Moonlight Nation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlight Nation Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Third date tonight at Gillette Stadium! Hope those attending have a beautiful experience! Another sold out stadium for Abel Tesfaye - here we come! It's also very exciting to see how the hype has been reflected on streaming platforms... Even our beloved flop is rising. If only he introduced the locals to "Wanderlust" and "Belong To The World" as well! (and they would be bloody perfect on the setlist) Edited July 22, 2022 by Moonlight Nation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariananext Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I'm becoming so impatient, I need euro dates Also to everybody who's attended so far or to who has seen a good amount of videos, what area should I aim for? I'm getting floor for sure, as I want to be as close as possible, but considering it's a stadium with a huge catwalk I'm not sure what I should go for, where does he spend most of the show? I also wonder if europe will have seated floors or not, I don't know if I've ever seen that here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
