[4] Writing for The Daily Texan, Trisha Dasgupta wrote "Standing in front of silver streamers and sparkly paper hearts, Roan brought a dreamy presence to the venue, captivating the audience with powerful vocals. With a knack for sarcastic lyricism and biting imagery, Roan’s lively dance moves brought her songs to life." [5] Chloe Postlewaite for The Vanderbilt Hustler said "The audience sang along as she transitioned into “Love Me Anyway,” followed by “Feminominon.” Roan's electric energy continued throughout the concert, matching the sparkly tinsel and disco balls lining the stage behind her" and "Roan’s performance, combined with the engaging and creative drag opening, made her concert an unforgettable night." [6] Writing for The Chicago Maroon, Sofia Hrycyszyn and Lainey Gregory wrote "Despite the beautiful voice on her records, Chappell Roan is one of those rare artists whose vocals are even better live."
