Trivia[]
- For the show in Orlando on August 30, 2015, Melanie had issues during "Mrs. Potato Head" because of an earpiece that had fallen out earlier in the show. She restarted the song and instead performed an acoustic version.
- The first show in Denver on October 6, 2015 consisted of stripped down versions of the songs from Cry Baby, with the second date in Denver using the original versions.
- Melanie revealed the "Soap" and "Training Wheels" double feature during the second show in Denver on October 7, 2015.
- Melanie would often sign the letters A, B, and C in ASL during "Alphabet Boy".[1]
- The show in Tempe on April 15, 2016 is one of the only concerts where Melanie sang all three of the deluxe tracks from Cry Baby.
- Melanie took a 6-month break halfway through the tour for festivals, touring in other countries, and recording for K-12.
