Article about a concert tour, not properly referenced as having a strong claim to passing WP:NTOUR. As always, concert tours are not all "inherently" notable enough to have Wikipedia articles just because they're happening -- the notability test for a concert tour is not passed just by verifying that the tour exists, but by demonstrating some form of cultural or artistic significance "in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms" (and that's a direct quote from NTOUR.)
But this is heavily reference bombed to sources that are not establishing notability at all -- out of 23 footnotes, 15 are to Twitter tweets, Instagram posts or Joshua Bassett's own self-published website about himself, another is to an indiscriminate setlist database that still isn't a notability maker, and two more just glancingly namecheck Joshua Bassett in passing without being about him or the tour in any non-trivial sense. And of the just five footnotes that are actually both about the tour and from real GNG-building media, they all just basically verify the tour's existence without saying anything that would satisfy the notability criteria that NTOUR is looking for.
