Pop-punk singer Avril Lavigne, 40, is currently out on tour, and apparently, she isn’t willing to accept anything less than A-game from herself and her band. While playing a song at a recent show, she suddenly realized the band was off beat, and she wasn’t about to let things continue without getting back on track.
As you’ll see in this TikTok video taken at the concert, she abruptly stopped playing, and then proceeded to call the band out for their misstep. She halted the show, motioned her hand to the band and said, “Ok, ok, ok… You guys gotta follow me.”
@itsapplegreen Live show drama?! 👀🎤 Avril really stopped the concert ‘cause the band was off beat… “Off beat? Someone’s in trouble.” Our faces? Shocked. Our thoughts? Someone’s getting fired 😬💀 @Annie💛 @Emile #AvrilLavigne #LiveShowMoment #BandDrama #OffBeatAlert #ConcertSurprise #DivasDoItBetter #IconicMoment #PopPunkQueen #CaughtIn4K #SomeonesGettingFired #fyp #foryou #reelsoftheday #concertreel #fangirllife #reelreaction #musicmoment #concerttea #emovibes #dramatok #reellove

“I’m singing and I’m playing, and you guys gotta follow me. Let’s try that again!”
LOL! Clearly, she isn’t about to accept anything less than perfection for her loyal concert goers.
Another person who was at the show saw the clip and said, “It was even more awkward live. My friends and I just looked at each other.”
Someone else added, “We had that on camera too!!! Hey, you know she had every right.”
One person came to the band’s defense, saying, “To be fair, she did say they didn’t have time to rehearse because of the rain lol.”
And another fan noted, “I’m actually surprised it doesn’t happen more often. Musicians are pretty impressive.”
Hopefully, things went better the second time around. It can’t be easy to get up and play in front of crowds every night, and mistakes are bound to happen from time to time.
If nothing else, at least this proves that Lavigne cares about the experience her fans are getting and wants to ensure they have a show to remember.
