Hello everyone, I sent those who have responded here the information for the Zoom. This is good for all of the following meetings every 2 weeks.

For March, we will meet on the 13th and the 27th. We are usually on for 2-3 hours. 

Looking forward to chatting with all of you!

The next ones will take place on Sunday March 13 and 27. I will PM you all the link and information, thanks so much! 

Hope everyone here is having a great week.

If you are interested in joining a monthly zoom chat for Janet fans, please message me. It takes place the 4th Sunday of each month and starts at 3pm Eastern time. I am the host and would love to chat with you all! 

I enjoyed the videos. Wish we can get that concert filmed for HBO still. I have a giant amount of hope!

I want Brazilian music!!

I do not remember the scene of her in the pink top. She looks so good!

Pushing the tour makes sense and I do think releasing the album in Fall is a good idea. 

I have played THEE FUCK outta this jam!!

 Opening night and NYC, I'm there!!

I think the interview is fine, especially for anyone who isn't familiar with her or her music. 

We know there are things she won't share, so the questions should be varied and interesting.

She should of closed the festival as a headliner anyways. Her whole outfit, stage, and lights were made for night. Unbreakable, SOTW, Global Citezen, and Panorama all look good because they are indoor with lights off or at night.

She probably needed time to travel and rehearse for Switzerland the next day. It was a longer show and a smaller stage.

yeah same. It looked half assed. No stage production nothing. It was all a big MEH. 

I don't get why she's having such a hard time with her audio at these festivals. There was a similar problem when she performed at Global Citizen. 

While touring, all of the equipment is yours generally when you go to a venue.

At a festival, the logistics are completely different and sound/technical issues can occur often. 

I was at GLOBAL Citizen and she had no sound issues. That was mostly Panorama and on a lesser scale Essence.

The negative is coming from white people surprise surprise 

It's coming from fans of other artists who didn't want to see her in the first place. You know, the ones who think rock music is real music. 

There's a lot of people in the audience singing loudly from what I hear on the full audio and lots of cheering. And many of them happen to be white!

Can't please everyone. 

There's a mixed response to the performance, most of the positive coming from fans on social media and some news outlets.  Negative remarks are coming from those who don't care for pop/r&B and some second rate websites. There were some sound issues throughout. But not as bad as some are making it out to be. 

Fuck Twitter, it's only good for porn! 

Can't wait to watch the full set.

Shouldn't be no different.  It's too iconic not to say it over there. LOL.

I agree. We pay too much attention to what she should do in Europe. Let the show happen and enjoy it!

Has she done festivals in Europe before, I can't remember? I still believe she would need a hit song in Europe to get people interested in her again.

The festivals she did last year were a step in the right direction. She received solid reviews. That along with the multiple accolades she won throughout 2018 put the much needed respect on her name. Most major festivals around the world would book her based on that alone. Plus, a festival is going to promote their event harder than an established independent artist. 

I find most Janet fans online involved in these discussions aren't being realistic and have too many grand ideas or expectations of what "she needs to do". It seems the only method of success that these same fans find acceptable are her charting high on national charts and performing to sold out arenas for multiple nights. 

Having Janet do any shows in Europe is a win, especially festivals. New music doesn't guarantee anything, nor does a collaboration guarantee that 8,000 people are suddenly going to buy tickets to an arena show. It seems like some are more concerned with bragging rights or that it validates Janet's legacy. 

All of us need to come down. Her touring history isn't perfect, but these conversations are old and tired. At least she's doing two major festivals. Take what you can and get over it. We have no control over anything else.

Keep doing festivals, that way the promotion is already there and a bigger audience outside of Janet fans will be exposed to her. 

Forget about the expectation of traditional promo and album releases, it's a new time and we can speculate on what she should or could do forever, but she's proven herself to be a solid draw at festivals and it's a win win for everyone.

New music isn't going to guarantee seats sold. It would be nice, but doing festivals and residencies here and there also keeps her from having to do hundreds of shows. She's not going to keep doing major tours for the next ten years, she also needs time to enjoy life outside of work and raise her child.

I was there opening night and it was legit an amazing feeling to be in the venue with every and having every song, every outfit, every special effect be an absolute surprise—completely unknown—and when she pulled out the Jacksons dance moves I lost my mind... she’s in this stage of her life where she’s doing what’s comfortable with doing and living her life the best way she knows how.... she knows she’s a walking corporation and her choosing to do this show, or any show for that matter, is her willingly choosing to provide dozens and dozens of people jobs that provide each of them the opportunity to say that they were able to truly live their dreams.. the show is amazing, the crew is amazing...and she is amazing!

 

looking forward to her SF date in September when I’ll be there with my 10yo daughter and my best friend for the last 15yrs (who I just convinced to go!)

Awesome. It would have been nice to meet you. See you in September then! Working on a fan meet up before the show. 

I cannot stop watching The Knowledge performance. All of the choreography is giving me what I need! Tears of pure joy!

Eww, this isn't the fucking Beyhive forums. Let that shit go.
