She sings "Walk Me Home" on this leg of the tour!

Eventho most of us (including me) doesnt like the skipping IND part, but the song is actually growing on me a lot the last couple of days

It could be a reason but that's a shitty reason. And I'd be HUGELY disappointed in P!nk if that's the reason.

It makes me sad too. It felt like she actually enjoyed performing the song and that it meant a lot to her too, not just to us. I understand that at least half of the songs need to be big hits because it has to fit 99% of the people there, and it's fun for them to sing along and yada yada, but the whole show doesn't! Plus, if they don't know one song, so what? Maybe they like to hear something they haven't heard before, maybe it'll make them curious about more of them songs that they haven't heard before. I'm not dead was the last hope I had for that, the rest is already overplayed on the radio. I want people to get to know her other songs too and not just the ones that are already in the light. But whatever, I'll just go be upset by myself and hope that somebody will think of that perspective some day too and not just what song would win a popularity contest 

A lot of the people in our Shreadnet group (meaning long time fans from the first board) on Facebook are saying this too. I’m not really convinced yet, but I can understand why they feel that way and I see their points. Maybe older non-hit songs on older albums aren’t “as relevant” to her anymore, as they are to us. Maybe that’s what’s happening here 🤷🏽‍♀️ I donno. 

Yes. I agree. I hope she understands she’s a legend and someone these new chicks look up to. She’s their role model and will never be one of them. And I sure as hell hope she doesn’t try to either. Pink’s royalty. She needs to be more proud.

I mean, there was this radio interview where one of P!nk’s label executives or producers has stated (sorry, I forgot who it was, maybe it was Roger?), that there’s always an RCA guy coming by the studio to check in on her and tell her what’s trendy in music at the moment so she can keep tabs.

So, I am guessing, yeah. I mean, she’s a mainstream artist so she has to adhere to the label’s rules and compromise a lot. There was an old VIVA interview where she says exactly that, that she compromised for IND only so much that she could still look at herself in the mirror at the end of the day lol I mean, in a way it kind of started there. Maybe her commercial failure with Try This still haunts her? I’d love another record where she just does what she feels like doing like with M!ss or TT where her executives either were “we give you the opportunity to fail” or “do whatever you like”, and still be within mainstream capacity (otherwise she can sell her records out of the back of a trunk lol) but still left field and trendsetting as she was.

I get that she has a family and cannot be the girl who tours with Rancid or sleeps on Linda Perry’s floor for three months, but I don’t think that’s an excuse for dwindling creativity. She’s still got it. There’s still fire I want to believe. She somehow “tricked” or found loop holes in her contract to make rose ave. I think she said in one interview that if she had had done one thing differently with its release, she would have had to pay big time to RCA in fees lol

So yeah. She seems to try and go with the times, and that’s okay, but I’d like to see some of that musical passion again in her work. Not performance, but music, I want to stress. Cause at the end of the day, I am much more of an album guy and just love a nice body of work.
