Really Raw Angst

Rafer Guzmán of Newsday reviewed Avril Lavigne’s concert at the Nassau Coliseum, where she played before a sold-out show. He writes, “Even backed by a four-piece band, the singer had trouble conquering the Coliseum. Lavigne seemed to be in need of more rehearsal time – like, years. Often, she stood awkwardly still, head to one side as if concentrating; her fist tended to fly up randomly, like an afterthought.”
