if Madonna can Tour at 47 almost 48 than janet should be able to, too

Saw her twice on AFY, and once on TVR, but unless she drastically revamps her shows, I will most likely sit this one out. Janet/TVR/AFY are all like Xeroxes of one another.

That's what I was saying about The Janet Tour and The Velvet Rope Tour, The The All4U Tour wa smore different than any tour she'd done. If anything it resembled Rythmn Nation.

fluid said:

she changed up the order fo the songs a bit... but it was still the same performances.

she needs to ditch the whimiscal thing.

Please! All fans agree that it's tired and frankly, if there is a song among her hits that she would not be missed from her show, it would be "Runaway" (and the whole "Alright" thing is tired, too).

i'd love to hear more album tracks... and less medleys

There was no Damito Jo tour and I, for one, would love to hear and see her perform a lot of those tracks. I truly liked that album.

CinisterCee said:

yes!

i would love to see her do a bunch of tracks from damita jo (especially all nite, slolove, rnb junkie, damita jo, sexhibition, strawberry bounce, moist), stuff off the new album, and a handful of hits (maybe even rotate several sets of hits, like a setlist A, setlist B, and setlist C kind of thing).

i want janet to get more daring and try new things on her next tour (hint: daring does not = sexually provocative). the whimsy set needs to be dropped like a bad case of gonorrhea. i also agree that the same old, same old dance routines need to be changed up. (except for if and rhythm nation - why mess with perfection?)

but i know that's all just dream...

I want to see her take it back to the "Janet Jackson" and the "Dream Street" albums.

Don't front, Janet, you know it's been more than 20 years!

The A;;4U Tour was entirely different. The set is entierly different. There will have to be medleys.She can't do all of her songs from her career in each's entirety.

What would you like to see her do on this tour. Unless I'm the guy getting picked I don't care to see her pull a guy onstage. WHat I would care to see her do is a new entrance. Maybe she could bring some lasers too. She can take Let's Wait Awhile out the beginning. She should pull 10 guys up.

fluid said:

all for you was very similar to her previous tours with regards to which songs she sang and certain sets. even down to her fake crying during again.

fluid said:

Of course she'll tour. Needs to restablish herself etc etc, even if she does lipsynch her way through most of the show.

Yeah, that'd getting tedious. I like the guys getting dragged on stage though. Hope she picks me next time.

I also thought All For You was very similar to the prior tours. You have the acoustic set where Janet "cries", you have the Control medley, you have the flowers and dinosaurs set. The choreography is always exactly the same, the Together Again bit was very similar at the end of the show, and she structures everything so similarly that you could always predict what song was coming next. I'm tired of her doing the striptease, I'm tired of Alright's Zoot suits, I'm tired of Janet stopping her concert to stare into the audience until the screaming subsides.

The only different stuff in the show was the new stuff; but even there, she just straight-jacked the video choreography. She's as bad as her bro with rehashing the same thing ad naseum in a live setting. Come on, Paula Abdul and Tina Landon are out of your life, why not send their choreography packing also?

Tina just didn't tour I believe she's still her choreographer.

Janet can't do all her songs without putting them in a medley. The Striptease and Whimsicla are highpoints I look forward to in the show. I think she should keep some part.....it's her trademark. I just want to see her sleek in Black.

fluid said:

Tina hasn't been Janet's choreographer since The Velvet Rope.

fluid said:

Medley's suck... i hate when prince does them i hate when janet does them

Just give me 20 songs. hell give me just 20 songs most of them songs i haven't seen. PLEASE!!!!

Do something to shock us all... a la Madonna PLEASE!!!!

ehuffnsd said:

Fuck, no.

VoicesCarry said:

i mean... as in do something different like change cherography or not put Rhythm Nation at the end or get rid of the whimiscal set or get rid of the zoot suits and do alright as a ballad... something like that.

ehuffnsd said:

See, this is why you are more a fan of Madonna. Because you'd want to hear La Isla Bonita all disco-fied, and there's no way in hell a Janet fan wants to hear a ballad version of Alright. LMAO.

VoicesCarry said:

i love them both seen every janet tour and Rythm Nation was my first cd... and i'd love to see her do something differnt.

generalizations are wrong... there are some Madonna fans who'd love to see her break out the wedding dress again.

ehuffnsd said:

Some? All Madonna fans want to see her do that shit again. It's camp.

If you proposed the ballad idea on a Janet board, you'd be laughed out of the place. It's just the way it is. I think this tour will have some things mixed up, but as for drastically reworked versions of tracks, no. It will never happen

VoicesCarry said:

Don't make gernal statements

Most Madonna fans i know don't want to see the dress again... and they would lose faith in her if she did....

ehuffnsd said:

Oh, lawd! Get over the generalizations. It's just not that serious.

And what, like the Madonna fans wouldn't eat up the whole mocking Christianity boolshit she's doing again? Course not. They LOVE it.

VoicesCarry said:

there are some saying it's tired... no one can make everyone happy

Okay lets be friends everyone.

But i agree, i hate medleys.

ehuffnsd said:

Right, but lose faith? Hell no. If Madonna strapped herself into that wedding gown, everyone would be creaming all over the seats. You don't invest 20 years in an artist just to lose faith when they do something lame, since it's not like the first time Madonna or Janet have done lame shit.
