Seems fitting to call dibs for this review now, since I might be going to her concert with friends and family in Melbourne in February if we get tickets in the Ticketek marketplace starting September!

Anyways, I'm gonna start this in a week or so. — VAUGHAN J.  ( TALK ) 10:17, 14 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for taking up the review :) please do ping me when you complete it. Too bad I haven't secured tix for the Eras Tour in Japan but hopefully I could get some resell tix... Ippantekina (talk) 04:35, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
