Avril's Tour Opens….To Disappointment

Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand

wenn1753280__opt.jpg

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!

    For Canadians who say things like "America can keep her" don't think of yourselves so highly because nobody gives a fuck about what you Canadians think to begin with, people give a shit about Canada as peoples interest in hockey which is zero.

    You should have posted a review of your dearly Rihanna and her concert at London Ont. where she was critically panned for her voice and 20 minute costume changes!.

    112

    As a Canadian I am embarassed by her. I wish she would just go away.

  13. Cheri says – reply to this


    113

    Maybe her and Sum41 should do a show together. At least if you put all their fans together, that might fill up a 2000 seat arena.

    Any girl who sings about kicking some guy's ass should be laughed at and not taken seriously. There isn't one girl who can kick any guy's ass, unless, wait, well Rosie could probably kick Peter Wentz's ass. Wait, there are probably more females that can kick Peter Wentz's ass.

    Ya, my cousin had tix he got from some promo. We were going to go and throw shit at the stage but in the end we decided she just wasn't worth it. 5 tix=just a waste of paper.

    okay, i live in victoria bc, and i went to the concert, and it was the opposite of what the person said in the newspaper, it was SOOO good, i thought it would be worse, but it was sooo good, she was WAY better than the boys like girls, and everyone that went to it said that it was really good, and that the critic was just being a bitch, because it was suchh a good concert.

    117

    Haha, I am from Victoria and saw that in the newspaper this morning. The article is pretty funny but also sad/pathetic because he really was able to capture Avrils lack of enjoyment/lack of energy… And charging $60 for a 75 minute show is a total ripoff, especially when it's half-assed.

    I am from Victoria > I had won tickets and I took my 9 year old niece .
    I am 40 and I truly enjoyed it.
    She did not lip sink like some other artist , she played the drums and she played the guiter. Her concert was not trasy like other young artist who dance around half naked > it was lite and enjoying to the kids that were their .
    I am proud of avril and I respect her as an artist and she is candian .
    And the guy that wrote that article in the paper , he is in 40's and that's his opinion .
    She has a stronge young following .. and to be honest her concert and her style of dance was their to please the young fans.
    ANd the crowd had a wonderful time and they were alive.

    She rocks and I am proud of avril .

    Clean healthy fun that's what avril came across to those kids
    as an aunt she made me feel that my niece was getting good clean entertainment.

    the concert wasn't that bad… what I didn't enjoy
    is that every person at the concert was between the ages of 6-14 and i felt freakishly old there…
    the only thing that really went wrong was that a cord on a piano broke.

    I mean even though avrils apparently a giant douche… and i don't doubt that. It was the first concert that I went to and I could actually dance to the music.. and it turned out to be really fun.
    every other concert is more…. get trampled in the mosh pit sort of scene.

    even though I originally went to see boys like girls im glad a saw avril as well.

    yes she sucks, yes she's pasty and ugly and yes she's a skank to the nth degree…get some sun or at least a fake tan… eat some really healthy food, cut down on the booze and cigs, then try to make some half decent music instead of the usual shit that she's been assaulting us with…

    Why is it that her name is already correct in the title (Avril) but not in the post (April)??? Apparently someone needs to stop using the "spell check" option.

    I am CANADIAN, damn fuc kin proud of it to and I am damn proud Avril is from here. The US can not have her. Not like you appreciate her talent anyways. I love how most people that have criticised her have
    a) probably never seen her in concert
    b) lying about being at the concert
    c) She does nto sing your type of music, therefore you are not a fan and your life sucks so much you have to criticise someone, just because they sing songs, not to their liking.

    Look at all the drugged up, boozing, rehabbed celebs out there and then tell me Avril deserves all this criticism. The only time I hear Avril goosip is when she dosn't sell tickets or she is rumoured to be pregnent. She is not the one to do all these dumb things to be in the media, so give her some credit here, there is way worst out there

    I caught the edmonton Alberta show and it was pretty much as bad as what was written about her. I think there were sound system problems because the opening act sounded less like singing and more like screaming,too many interludes we paid for singing not to watch breakdancing,to short,cost to much 65 dollars to be exact,it was just so far beneath the talent that you know she has but this was more about the glamour and less about the music

    Re: JESUS – It's find of funny how people keep telling Perez to get a life and stop talking about Avril if he hates her so much. Well, idiots, if you all hate Perez so much why don't you stop commenting on his fucking site?
