Lana Del Rey fans criticise star for ‘abysmal’ 90-minute gig after she shows up late to first UK tour date

1. I sort of assumed by now if she didn’t turn up late it wasn’t really a Lana Del Rey concert?

   Anyway, it’s probably just anecdotal bias but everyone I know that went to the show had no complaints about it and thought she was very good. I suppose that’s not really a good headline

2. My friend took her daughter, they expected her to come on stage late but apparently she was going off stage loads more than she was on stage and half the set list was covers.
   They saw her last tour and said she was amazing but they were very disappointed with this one.

3. Saw her back in 2017 and felt she couldn’t really be arsed with it. Maybe that’s just her style. I was surprised to see her playing stadiums on this tour.

4. Never got the hype, I think her music is slow and boring. But still a shame for the people who went. Dunno why these big artists put on gigs and sell tickets that they can’t honour. Apparently she’s a massive coke-head so could explain this one.

5. Seems a big contrast to the eras tour which was absolutely fucking amazing.

6. She’s really not a stadium artist IMO I’m surprised this tour is even happening

7. Was meant to see her right before Covid struck and she cancelled as that was all snowballing out of control. At the time I thought wow, she’s so conscientious, cancelling out of abundant caution.

   But no, she’s just a lazy cow and couldn’t be fucked to perform. And then treated Covid like it was a joke with her silly mesh face masks. Used to love Lana but my god she makes it so easy to hate her.

8. Mate of mine used to be part of her tech team, he didn’t have anything nice to say about her…

9. I love her music, huge huge fan. But I ain’t paying to see her live lol

10. Bizarre that the tone of this is that it’s ‘only’ 90 minutes… 90-120 is perfect for a headliner.

    I’ve just been to see Green Day in Stockholm and their set was 90 minutes too. Just a *tad* more energy than LDR’s I expect…

11. Everything else is fair criticism but 90 minutes is a perfectly normal amount of time for a concert

12. Wasn’t she late for sorting her hair out in a UK gig? Definitely can’t be arsed for sure.

13. It’s not her fault, happens this time of year – she suffers from summertime sadness

14. The only thing I’ve learnt from the experiences of other fans is that I will always remain a listener and not a concert goer 🫡

15. Does Lana Del Rey really mean “The king’s wool”? Because everyone keeps saying that and I don’t get it.

16. purely anecdotally but from what i’ve heard she didn’t play many fan favourites- whatever that means- she was off stage too much- and two of the songs were just videos and pre-recorded so not a good impression. however i don’t think she can be criticised for the length, 90 minutes is a normal length and i think everyone’s perceptions have been skewed by the eras tour

17. Are they really that pissed over 20 minutes late? I get the curfew but 20 minutes is nothing. She’s a rockstar.
