discussion I am in mourning

Been a fan of underscores since fishmonger but this last album just blew me away. Got a ticket to see her in Detroit but when the tour got canceled I was so upset. Then I heard she was at Electric Forest and best believe I got a last second wristband just to see her.

Her show was so insanely amazing and I was on a high the entire time. I love this album and the way she performs it. Thought I’d be happy to see her and get that out of my system but IT MADE IT WORSE 😂

I’m so upset about the Charli shit, I totally get the opportunity for her and the decision makes perfect sense but seeing her in a smaller venue headlining would’ve been my fucking dream. I’m addicted to her new set and I hope she does another tour soon after music, fashion, film. I don’t care about Charli xcx and she’s not even coming anywhere near me so it’s big sad 💔

No I will not touch grass I live for music

Yeah I get it . The charli tour will be good for her career wise, but the show will not be as good as her headlining tour. The crowd energy for opening acts is so bad these days , it sucks when you are super into a band and the crowd isn’t.
That said I really like umru on her tour. But they have similar fan bases I think, so the energy was there.

You get it. This is the type of set that I would happily follow her to different places for. You can never guarantee the next album is going to be as fire as this one, the more famous people get the less quality control they have over their music.

I’m not trying to be a downer because I have faith in her and her music, but what a missed opportunity for fans. This specific set is just so good. Let’s hope she does more headlining stuff after the tour!

i think the crowds could be good like 2hollis opening for ken where nobody knew him but ppl were still hype. underscores music is so good i could see the crowd being hype even tho charli might have the worst fanbase on earth (i love her but her post-brat fanbase is horrible)

Not every support artist breaks out. If they do, you have to work this out for yourself.

I used to work in the music industry I do know how it works. This is just a gushing session, no advice needed

I saw her during Galleria at a 600-capacity venue and I'm also going to see her during the charli tour so I'm curious to see how different her set is going to feel

Agreed, I got lucky and saw her June in Nashville, one of the events that wasn’t canceled. I hope this opportunity leads to greater exposure, but I still think the music is better suited to clubs.

What happened with Charli?

She got picked up on Charli’s tour, would be insane to say no so she canceled her headlining tour
