Neil

Really interesting reading the online discourse about the decision for her to revisit this era in such a way. I don't really have an opinion either way, especially as this era was such a moment for me and our friendship group, it's the soundtrack to some really pivotal moments in our lives. I love all these tracks and still listen to them regularly. I do think it's disappointing that she hasn't re-recorded that P Diddy line though.

Sold out :(

I don't believe for a second there are this many legitimate fans. Bots, bots, bots.

Not in the pre-sale, all gone. Will need to try general sale at 3PM.

Yes, I started with 16k ahead of me. 20 minutes later there's 11979 ahead of me in the queue... For 1 date at a 2k capacity venue!

After having a really good time at the 143 tour, and despite literally everything else, I still remain cautiously optimistic that Katy can still deliver a good track.

EX! EM! EY! ESS! It's a bop.

Ice Cream was horrific. This is... OK.

So, I had seen some of the memes about the lyrics on insta etc, and was super confused as I was just not hearing those at all. Turns out my first 3 playthroughs, I had been listening to the non-explicit version 🫣 Now time for playthrough 4 with a bit of filfth! My thoughts this stage are, I love it! I had convinced myself there would be some sort of deluxe being released as well like her last couple of releases, but it's quite refreshing only having 12 tracks - let's me get engrossed in each song and actually remember them. Early favourites are The Fate of Ophelia, Elizabeth Taylor and Father Figure.

So this probably sets the blueprint for their setlist on the upcoming Live in Concert tour then I guess? Shame they haven't included Kids on this - but I really just view greatest hits albums as playlists in this day and age, so it's makes no odds to me at all haha.

Oh I don't like that :( I really don't like artists talking smack about their own work - especially such a recent release. I don't have any issue about them saying they've changed, the sentiment of the song doesn't reflect where they are now etc... but those songs made us your fan, you know? And Plastic Hearts is in my opinion her greatest album. As far as Something Beautiful is concerned, I actually haven't revisited it once since my first listen (other than a couple of songs which made my playlist), which isn't like me for Miley. But nothing is drawing me back...

Have only had time to skim through it and not really take it all in, but Walk Of Fame (feat. Brittany Howard) is just sublime.

Some of the venues are doing 2-4-1 ticket offers (Cardiff and London at least), might go to Birmingham if they also start doing that.

Got tickets for the extra London date. And it's on a Saturday too, much better than the previous mid-week options. Yay :)

The only guess I have of any confidence at the moment, is Marti Pellow as Wolf.
