If you dream it, you can be it: The Katy Perry ethos takes flight in Melbourne

written by TheFeedWired

MUSIC Katy Perry | The Lifetimes Tour ★★★★ Rod Laver Arena, until June 14 Katy Perry is pure pop. Her songs promise, and mostly deliver, a good time. And her Lifetimes concert does the same, across two and a half hours, five acts, multiple costume changes and more than 20 songs from a back catalogue stretching to 2008 (the pre-Perry Christian singer Katy Hudson gets a brief acknowledgement but no stage time).

But this big, spectacular, noisy and surprisingly intimate show also has grander ambitions, in which it has mixed success. Katy Perry on stage at Rod Laver Arena.

To do so, she must free the butterflies that have been captured to power the AI, and to do that she needs to collect love, in the form of glowing hearts that descend from the arena rafters.
