Hide contents Automatic was played instead of start the machine tonight, looks like their doing some light set list rotation on the tour I feel like they just played it because the label told them to because it was doing really well. Tom played the guitar in the wrong key in sound check because he didn’t even know the song because ilan did the guitars apparently lol. So they didn’t rehearse it and they played a lot of songs Tom rehearsals that didnt make the cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night would have been my show. Damn, last time AVA played in Portland it was the only show on the tour they didn’t play There Is in the medley. I was so bummed about that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I said label I just meant his team in general. Pretty sure that’s not true about the label though, they wouldn’t sign deals just for the album. There’s no money to be made there and someone has to put up the capital for the tours. And pretty sure the only reason they’re not playing losing my mind is it’s too hard for Tom to sing.

If that is the actual reason I think it’s smart of them to build a set list out of the songs where Tom perform the best vocally. With that said the set should be longer with the addition of love era songs imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you’re wrong about there’s no money to be made as well, depending on what deal they’ve done with the artist they can do pretty good from streaming alone. Rihanna’s Umbrella has an made around 3 230 400 dollars, that’s one song on one streaming platform (Spotify). For the talent, they get a portion out of that amount, then ascap/bmi and for the musicians that played on the track there’s an agency that collect royalties for them as well (at least in Sweden). Umbrella is I obviously an extreme example but I chose it to make a point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioactive tomdog Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 ava is also not the only band on that label. i'm sure album sales and streaming revenue of all of their artists combined keep them afloat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentytwenty Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 AVA is live-streaming from the concert on their insta right now. Sounds great! Edit: it was only the second half of the adventure 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 I'm so bored of this album already. Kiss & Tell and Rebel Girl were still the most exciting things to come off that album/promotion cycle. Losing My Mind, Restless Souls sure good, but very quickly don't want to put any effort in to revisit. They REALLY needed another banger like K&T or RG to keep any interest once it was released. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same. I listened to it twice since there full thing released and I’ve just got no desire to revisit the whole thing. Few songs here and there? Sure. Whole thing in one sitting. Nah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioactive tomdog Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 i don't remember the last time an album came out that i listened to constantly. maybe neighborhoods 10 years ago? so, for me, it's not even a valid critique anymore. music kinda sucks now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair. Something about streaming made the listening less constant. Neighborhoods and Untitled are by far the most listened to albums in my lifetime. I definitely still think it's a pretty boring album since we got the two best songs first (IMO). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 I just put the ones I like on my main playlist, and im still happy. only newish album I’ve listened to intentionally as a whole is Bo Burnhams Inside. Not many full records feel like decent experiences anymore. I always try, but they rarely deliver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 I think the artists know this themselves.. hence the heavy singles, singles/cheaply made videos constantly vs album hype. Not every label has Feldmann to buy 100,000 copies and inflate the numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 I've had quite a few enjoyable album experiences the last few years. You guys should listen to better music! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 MGK - Downfall, b182- NINE, and TBS - Tidal Waves are really the only three I can think of in the past 4 years that kept me engaged start to finish (blink for biased reasons). I love some albums that have come out, but I can't pretend they don't go straight to playlists before it reaches any levels of the good ol days.

Russel Coight Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 If I like an album I’ll listen to it front to back for a few weeks when it’s new. I’m not much of a playlist guy though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not handpicking songs to soundtrack my day to though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
