Not sure if this is Billboard official review but:
Quote:
the whole show was a big visual, beginning with Rihanna’s truly surprising entrance into the arena atop a platform set in the back of the arena floor above the crowd.
Then she slowly made her way there, walking on an elevated plastic catwalk that deposited her on a stage devoid of any props or decoration save for light effects and a constantly changing backdrop that went from psychedelic to art installation.
Armed with a battalion of dancers and a jamming eight-piece band, Rihanna went through multiple outfit changes to deliver a show that was visually riveting and, at times, musically compelling. Performing both old hits and new material, and often taking real risks (including the slow opening as well as the slow closer, “Kiss It Better”), Rihanna seemed intent on showing that yes, she could twerk, she could dance, but she could also belt it out.
The “Anti” tour is devoid of the bombastic staging of other tours, but with its well-defined sections and moods, it keeps you looking and on your feet; the backdrop that shed what appeared to be soap suds, for example, delivered wow effect. And with dancers who seemed to be straight out of Cirque du Soleil, it was sleek and elegant, more sensual and sexy than raunchy.
The outfits alone and that catwalk were well worth it.
No but she did mention that fans have been very vocal about favorites off the album. (So I think she'll deff take fans opinion into consideration for future singles) and that there will be lots of surprises on the tour. (So I'm assuming she might be changing the setlist and have more special guests as the tour goes on)
the BB review.
Do you have a vid of when she said there will be loads of surprises on the tour?
