The Platinum Tour (also known as Crystal Light Presents the Platinum Tour) is the current headlining concert tour by American country music singer Miranda Lambert. The tour is in support of her fifth studio album, Platinum and is presented by Crystal Light.

Background

The tour was first announced in May 2014, and began on July 10, with the first leg ending on September 20. Lambert says, "Platinum represents a lifestyle for me. It's the color of my hair, wedding ring, my airstream trailer, so it's just a natural fit for the name of my new album and its why we decided to name the tour Platinum too." [1] A second leg was later added beginning on January 2, 2015 and will end on March 26.

The shows in Cleveland, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh are apart of Jason Aldean's Burn It Down Tour where she will serve as an opening act.

Concert synopsis

At the beginning of the show, there is "a montage paying homage to female pioneers", such as Sally Ride. Then on a black screen "a slogan in white text" and in capital letters appears saying, "Well-behaved women rarely make history." Before the show began, "there was a screening of the music video for "Somethin' Bad", her hit song with Carrie Underwood. Lambert starts the show with "Fastest Girl in Town" and closes with "Gunpowder & Lead". [2]

Critical reception

Nate Chinen of the New York Times says, "She hit her marks, but seemed to be punching from a a distance for the third of the show. It was as if she had grown weary of her own ironclad image, or the delivery system around it, or the many forms of upkeep required." "Whatever the case, as she labored, her band smoothly churned, with a balance of muscle and finesse." [2]
