Avril's Tour Opens….To Disappointment

Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand

April Lavigne kicked off her world tour in Canada on Thursday night and, as expected, it sucked!

The reviewer for the Victoria Times Colonnist, who admitted to liking her music, had this to say about her show:

For the most part, I like Lavigne's music and have taken it upon myself to argue the point repeatedly to the non-fans who will listen.

But Wednesday night wasn't an occasion I would go on the record for with unwavering support.

Granted, it was the opening night of her world tour - which includes 15 dates in Canada - but the so-billed Best Damn Tour wasn't even the Somewhat OK Damn Tour; it was just plain disappointing.

Awww, poor April.

At least she has her troll husband's shoulder to cry on!

      she is the worst. a poser and non talent. she spits at people, then cries like a baby on punk'd - mtv. she whines like a baby and tries to be a diva. it is nice to see the fans are not tolerating her bad music, diva attitude, and her wannabe punk behavior. her career is finished. next.

      Why does this bitch always look like some evil vampiric creature? Between her nasty attitude, face and music, it's good to see the Canadian people expressing their disgust with their homegrown bitch too.

      April is the worst pseudo punk rocker ever. She's a little brat who thinks she's so hard. My guess is her career will tank quickly and she'll sell her house for nothing and move back to canada. good riddance bitch

      I don't get people who hate Perez, yet loves his website. If you hate someone so much you would not want anything to do with them. I guess Hate= Passion is true after all.

      I've got a few co-workers that went to the show last night with their daughters and they all said it was HORRIBLE! Not even their daughters enjoyed it.

      People here in Victoria couldn't have cared less that she was opening her tour here last night.

      Thanks, perez. For leaving out the positive, which there was a lot of. Plus this is just one review. I've read others that said it was fantastic. Plus cut her some slack, it was her first show.

    72. The Waiting says – reply to this


      72

      of course she sucks, she's a complete phony. She's a result of major record label marketing and research; they wanted an act that can appeal to tweener females in the suburbs.

      She cant write, she cant play, there's NOTHING about her that says, long term career.

      And Tom Petty is touring this summer too, and he's already sold out the ENTIRE fucking tour. Gee, wonder why that is?

      Maybe because people would rather pay to see a real, proven artist who writes his own material and delivers to MUSIC FANS, not to stupid teeney boppers with hormones out of control who will be the first to throw away Avril once they become old enough.

      i went to the concert, it actually was much better than expected! it was a little too much pink sparkles but she played the drums and guitar and her piano wouldn't work so she quickly opted just to sit and sing.
      this is coming from a no so bit avril fan but the concert was great for the cutsie punk rock kids btw the ages of 7-14
      good times all around! (but it definitely wasn't sold out)

    74. megan says – reply to this


      74

      holla … i indeed went to that show, and totes agree with the Times Colonist, and Perez.
      to be totally honest…i only went to go see Boys Like Girls.

      I was there. I liked it a lot. She was really energetic and into it. The crowd actually wasn't preteen girls I don't know where the writer got that from, it was late teen early 20s from what I saw.

      Thanks for posting this review Perez. Hopefully it will alert people before they spend $60+ on a 70 minute show. Who the hell has an hour concert and charges that much? This lame cunt, that's who. What a poser loser bitch.

    89. #20 says – reply to this


      89

      I read your post, it made me want to know her age. I just googled it, she was born in Sept of 84.
      She's not a kid, she's 24 years old.
      She could have two degrees by now.
      She chose to be an arrogant adult, which is why most don't like her.
      With the way things are going for her, maybe she should go to school and get out of the music business. It dosen't seem to be paying her bills.

      I would never pay money to see this skank in concert but I did see her "perform" on Dancing With the Stars. She sounds horrible live. Two songs on that show made my eardrums rupture, I can't imagine what 70 minutes would do…probably rupture my bowels causing explosive diahrreah. She's a fake and copies talented people's music. Worthless cunt.

      Re: d

      A. Perez hates Avril. Avril=April in French. Perez calls Avril "April" as an insult, because of the aforementioned hating.

      B. If you are going to post a stupid question, why don't you read through the blog to see if 87 other people HAVEN'T ANSWERED IT ALREADY!!!!!!!!

      and C. What kind of ignorant jackass thinks that avril levigne's music is actually "punk"? She's no different than Britney f'n Spears in terms of talent, originality or soul.
