Mexican Livies Await Olivia Rodrigo‘s “Guts World Tour” with Setlist Concerns

Anticipation is reaching fever pitch among Mexican fans, affectionately known as “Livies,” as Olivia Rodrigo prepares to bring her “Guts world tour” to Mexico in April 2025.This extended leg of her already successful world tour promises to be a major event. However, a shadow of doubt hangs over the excitement: will the setlist that stirred controversy in South America make its way north?

Mexico Dates and Ticket Frenzy

Rodrigo is scheduled to perform two shows in Mexico City on April 2nd and 3rd at the GNP Seguros Stadium, followed by an appearance at the Tecate Pal ‘Norte festival in Monterrey on April 6th.The inclusion of Mexico and Brazil in the tour’s extended itinerary was a welcome surprise for many Latin American fans who initially feared being overlooked.

Tickets went on sale via Ticketmaster and, unsurprisingly, sold out within hours, demonstrating the immense popularity of the young artist. Yet, amidst the euphoria, a pressing question lingers: what songs will Rodrigo perform?

The South American Setlist Shift: A Cause for Concern

The source of the anxiety stems from recent alterations to Rodrigo’s setlist during her South American performances. Notably, three key ballads from her “Guts” album where removed and replaced with a 90s cover song. While the No Doubt tribute was generally well-received, many fans expressed disappointment at the omission of the original tracks.

The concern deepened when Rodrigo maintained this modified setlist for her non-festival concert in Curitiba, Brazil. This suggests a potential shift for the entire Latin American leg of the tour. Concert tours typically maintain a consistent setlist across different countries, raising the possibility that Mexican audiences will experience the same altered show.

According to recent data from Setlist.fm, artists rarely deviate considerably from their established setlists during a tour leg, with only minor adjustments made based on venue or special occasions. This past trend fuels the apprehension among Mexican fans.

Projected setlist for Mexico

Despite the uncertainty, a projected setlist is circulating among fans, offering a glimpse of what to expect:

• ‘obsessed’
• ‘ballad of a homeschooled girl’
• ‘vampire’
• ‘driver’s license’
• ‘traitor’
• ‘bad idea, right?’
• ‘love is embarrassing’
• ‘pretty isn’t pretty’
• ‘happier’
• ‘lacy’
• ‘enough for you’
• ‘so american’
• ‘jealousy, jealousy’
• ‘favorite crime’
• ‘teenage dream’
• ‘Dej vu’
• ‘brutal’
• ‘all-american bitch’
• ‘good 4 u’
• ‘get him back!’

Hope Remains: The Power of Mexican Livies

Despite the setlist controversy, one thing is certain: Olivia Rodrigo is currently at the peak of her performance prowess. Her South American shows showcased a more dynamic artist, featuring striking visuals, energetic choreography, and a palpable connection with the audience.

Some fans remain optimistic that Rodrigo might reconsider the setlist changes for Mexico. The arrival of the “Guts Gallery,” an interactive exhibition associated with the tour, in Mexico City has fueled speculation that Rodrigo might be receptive to fan sentiment. After all,Mexican Livies are known for their passionate dedication,and their enthusiasm could potentially inspire a last-minute change.

Meanwhile, fans shoudl prepare for a high-energy show filled with screams, catharsis, and raw emotion. And if “The Grudge” or “Logical” are missing from the setlist,there’s always the option of a post-concert singalong in the parking lot.
