Yep, unfortunately it's true, and our lady is just doing her job for the masses, not just us super fans. The price hike may be acceptable to people who do one gig, where it's a one off expense as a treat. For touring fans, it cuts down the amounts of gigs we (I for one) can do. Lotta and I have saved the same amount (a lot) we spent doing 9 gigs last European tour, including travel, and yet at the current prices we are seeing from the US and Oz, that amount will only get us 6-7 gig tickets each and we will need to save even more for the travel on top... Travel prices also up a gazillion percent since the old days. Fuck, I remember getting some Ryanair flights for £0.02p return hahaha and £12.50 for a bed in a youth hostel. Shame our wages and salaries arent rising at the same rate of inflation 😂😂 Rant over for now. |

I think it has to do with the stupid seats system. Like probably the inner pit will be expensive but outside of the "heart" will most likely be less expensive GA tickets. At least this is what i hope for and will be really pissed off if i can't afford it. |

Yeah US and Oz are generally more expensive, and because we have full standing pits in the EU, they can fit so many more in so ticket prices are less... That said, we still have to contend with the dodgy Ticketmaster scams of not releasing all the tickets, holding back the best sellers etc, ridiculous resale prices. Last tour, my EU tickets ranged from £47 to about £70 if I remember correctly. So the absolute max I expect to pay would be £90-100 a tickets..... However, just tried to book Alanis Morrisette tickets the other day, and considering she hasn't toured, released new music, anything for years. They were £95 for seats not so close to the stage. It's pure extortion! Yep, unfortunately it's true, and our lady is just doing her job for the masses, not just us super fans.

Wanted to post somewhere that I like that she did the Glitter performance at the end in the outfit she wore for the WHCBB Grammy performance. Like combining her grammy GITA performance and her grammy WHCBB performance. I had only read the setlist before I saw the show and was worried it was going to be exactly the same as before.
-The entire thing with Revenge made me laugh so hard, and I loved it so much.
-Secrets was A-MAZING(thought of Dani the whole time as I was freaking out lol). Can't believe she goes from Secrets to doing the Try dance. That has to be so hard.
-I loved what she did with the VMA speech right before RYG. Hearing the cheers during it gave me chills and a lot of feelings thinking about my younger self and seeing this young girl dancing her heart out a few seats away from me while everyone else was sitting around her the whole night. I felt so happy for that girl knowing she has P!nk to look up to, and she was enjoying the show so much and didn't care everyone was sitting around her. I was in level 300 and honestly it was so steep I was scared to stand. haha.
Any thoughts on not having a full on acoustic section of the show? I did love I Am Here(my favorite song) and Barbies. It was the closest to an acoustic set.
I noticed she didn't have much of a chit chat moment where she just talks. There was a little, but didn't seem to be as much as the previous tours. Could have just been that particular night too. Jenny was sick for this first show I'm seeing, so that was a bit of a bummer.
Random question:
I'm in the pit on Wed and Thursday, and I wasn't going to take a sign or like try to get anything from her, but I realized I don't have her signature. She seems to be pretty willing to sign stuff for pit people, but idk if I should worry about it? The last time I took a sign, she ignored it and it kind of ruined that part of the show for me because I was so worried about the stupid sign and I made it too big. haha. I might go through my collection and try to find something small she could sign like an album booklet or something. Ohhhh, think she'd sign Rose Ave for me? That might be unique enough to catch her attention. Any ideas or thoughts, friends?
(thanks for making this forum, I needed some place to talk about the show)

Shame our wages and salaries arent rising at the same rate of inflationn 😂😂 Rant over for now. It is a shame, yeah. Funny you say that about inflation and income, I said nearly the exact same thing a few days ago. 😂 I love all of your dedication. I've always wanted to attend lots of gigs but it has never been an option (to the extent I would want), and as prices increase it gets further out of reach. I began aiming at 3 for this tour, but at this point I'll take what I can get and hope long term fans aren’t priced out. I’ll end my little rant there. 😉 On a more positive note I hope to finally meet more of you properly. I’m looking forward to seeing I’m Not Dead again and Smells Like Teen Spirit should be a lot of fun. The rest I’ll try not to think about until I see it. Some things have to be experienced and I usually leave surprised at what hit me the most. More than anything I can’t wait to see Lily’s reaction to it all - it’s going be really special. ❤️ |

Thanks for sharing! It was a great read  Funny you thought of me during Secrets though?  I love the acoustic part the best. It's always been my favorite part of the show. Had no idea she didn't do more. Haven't digged into this tour that much. Just checked the setlist and saw a few seconds of some video clips. Where on the stage is she when she sings Barbies and I am here? If you don't wanna do a sign you can write something in your palm. I did on V fest and she read it but ignored it kinda. I wrote something like WET on my left hand and HUG on my right because it was just funny because it had rained so much all day and it was just before JLAP when she'd come down the stage but she just passed. Oh well. Next time she's maybe in the mood, lol. So that's an idea if you can't bother with signs. Or a piece of paper? She'll sign if the timing is right I'm sure. Good luck ♥ |

Good luck ♥ I just know it's your favorite song and it's not mine...lol. Barbies and I Am Here take place at the front of the stage, so the pit is behind her. Good idea about the hand or just doing a simple piece of paper. and LOL at wet hug. |

I feel like it was one of those where she was walking around a lot and on the edges during it, but I don't remember. I just did a quick YT search for a video but I didn't see one. :/ I'll pay closer attention at the shows this week and report back. lol. |

Secrets looks so perfect. Like, it just needs to be photographed and fixed somewhere. Would love for her to perform it on TV.

Same venue price difference. that is insane.  they probably realized they can rip off people much more because she sold very well the last time... so sad and unfair. |
