Avril Lavigne kicked off her Best Damn Tour in Victoria Wednesday night with a sparkly, choreographed rendition of her hit single Girlfriend, but it wasn’t until things slowed down that she really got going.
Lavigne’s third song, a low-key version of Complicated, followed by another earlier hit, My Happy Ending, were a welcome change in tone, coming off the brash opening tunes Girlfriend and I Can Do Better (coincidentally the first and second songs on her current CD The Best Damn Thing). They allowed Lavigne, 23, to take a breath (quite literally), concentrate on her singing, and get behind her guitar – where she seems most comfortable.
