Lana Del Rey also invited Quavo and Stephen Sanchez during her recent concert

On Thursday, Lana Del Rey was scheduled to take the stage in Boston’s Fenway Park around 8:30 pm local time. However, the rain and thunderstorms delayed it by two hours, and she finally appeared for her show around 10:30 pm.

In between, she shared a poll on her Instagram Story asking her fans whether they wanted “a one-hour show tonight” if the weather got better “as opposed to a two-hour show on Saturday.”

Fortunately, the concertgoers encouraged her to continue that same night as the weather also cleared up. During her abbreviated 15-song set, she gave a glimpse of her new album Lasso and also sang her hit songs, including Without You and Cherry.

Later, she was joined by her guest performer Mason Ramsey for Blue Over You, alongside Atlanta rapper Quavo and TikTok sensation Stephen Sanchez. While the former and Lana debuted their upcoming collab Tough, the latter sang his 2023 popular track Until I Found You in a duet with her.
