What a disappointing setlist — almost the opposite of what Charli is doing on her tour.

What do we think is the optimal ratio of a tour? How much of the setlist should be the most recent album vs previous hits?

I’d say just over half should be from the album being toured, so it feels like an event for that album. But still a good amount of hits to please casual fans. Also like a random throwback album track or two that’s unexpected or hasn’t been performed in ages

That's an awful setlist!!!

I really do feel that an album tour should have the majority of the tracks from that album with only a splattering of staples thrown in to bring a bit of variety. I would say:

Norman f***ing Rockwell - KEEP
Bartender - KEEP (but definitely not play second!)
Chelsea Hotel #2 (Leonard Cohen cover) (with Adam Cohen) - KEEP as I quite like this track and it's an interesting inclusion - but again, later in the set)
Born to Die - KEEP

Blue Jeans - DITCH
Cherry - DITCH
White Mustang - DITCH
Pretty When You Cry - DITCH
Change / Black Beauty / Young and Beautiful - DITCH

Ride - KEEP
Tomorrow Never Came (with Sean Lennon) - DITCH
Video Games - KEEP
Mariners Apartment Complex - KEEP
Summertime Sadness - KEEP
Doin' Time (Sublime cover) - KEEP

Off to the Races - DITCH
Shades of Cool - DITCH

Venice Bitch - KEEP

Which frees up 8 spots for:

Cinnamon Girl
The Greatest
California
Happiness is a Butterfly
Hope is a dangerous thing...
The Next Best American Record
F*ck It I Love You
Love Song


Plus add:

Love
Gods & Monsters
West Coast
13 Beaches

I'm positive she will add more new songs but it's a lazy attitude to recycle your old tour...

I never understand when artists are reluctant to play new stuff, should be the opposite, they should be eager to play new music if they're proud of it...

The extreme is really Ben Howard, in the last tour he only played new songs, and if somebody asked for old hits he was getting upset and sometimes even leaving the stage and finishing the gig biggrin.gif

It's so insane to me that she has been essentially playing the setlist for years now. I would go with something like:

Norman f***ing Rockwell
Mariners Apartment Complex
Love
Born to Die
F*ck It I Love You
Cinnamon Girl
Cherry
The Next Best American Record
Ride
Video Games
Love Song
Happiness is a Butterfly
The Greatest
Doin' Time
Summertime Sadness
West Coast
Hope is a dangerous thing...
Venice Bitch

2nd date was not much better, same setlist as the first day
bizarrely, instead of adding new songs she added a cover of a Joni Mitchell track

a bit better for the 3rd date. She did again the Joni Mitchell cover and even added another cover, Simon & Garfunkel this time
but at least she did the debut of Cinnamon and also Happiness is a Butterfly (with audience)

I wish she wasn't so lazy, a hastily thrown together piano CG doesn't really do the epic expansiveness of the song justice. She should have a full band for all the songs.

She needs to keep Off to the Races and Cherry but I would happily see her drop Video Games and Bartender in exchange.
