She’s “getting the party started” in Europe, but will carry it over to North America: Pink’s Summer Carnival Tour will kick off in July and feature Brandi Carlile or Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, but all dates will have Grouplove as opener.
GROUPLOVE
The Los Angeles-based rockers are excited to be on this tour. With hits, “Tongue Tied,” “Welcome to Your Life,” “Itchin’ on a Photograph,” “Colours,” and “Way to Go,” concertgoers have another ear candy treat in store for them.
The stadium tour will no doubt feature Pink displaying her incredible acrobatic skills as she sings her hits “So What,” “Stupid Girls,” “Try,” “What About Us,” “Don’t Let Me Get Me,” “Just Like a Pill,” “Blow Me (One Last Kiss),” “U + Ur Hand,” “Get the Party Started,” and “Raise Your Glass.”
Pink released a live album, “All I Know So Far: Setlist,” in 2021, but has not announced a new album in relation to this tour. However, she did just release a song entitled “Never Not Gonna Dance Again,” which she will perform on the American Music Awards on November 20th.
Over the weekend, Pink and Brandi Carlile teased fans with tour news on social media. While sitting backstage at the Hall of Fame ceremony, Pink called Carlile:
Pink: “I was really afraid to ask you this question to your face.”
Carlile: “Oh? I’m married.”
Pink: “Yeah. I love your wife. But will you go on tour with me?”
Carlile: “Fuck, yeah!”
Carlile will be featured on 15 of the 21 dates and has been having an incredible year.
