You don't really have the numbers though. Tickets were made available just recently actually. They say it was because after the stage was set up they were able to release additional tickets. Which is fair enough but, how many were held back? How many were put on sale? how many others are being held back? - You don't know. I don't know. Madonna fans don't know. We don't have the numbers so I think we should just be safe, and not try and report things we don't know.

As per the official announcement that tickets were made available due to more space being available, we know that it was not an organic sell out. That's a fact. If tickets were held back (for any reason) it's not an organic sell out. - Is there anything wrong with that? - No. Not at all. But hey, Let's call and a spade a spade.

I would also like to point out, that ticket selling organisations like Ticket master are under investigation by the government for withholding tickets and moving them to secondary sellers which they own.

It's been going on since 2012 and it's not lady gaga's fault. It can affect all our faves. In the industry in the UK.

Anyways, I mean no disrespect but you don't have the numbers at all.

I think it's great she's added more shows. It's good to see that the demand is actually there and I hope there's no ticket shenanigans.

The original Manchester & London FF dates sold out due to demand at the time- I remember the scramble to get standing tickets.

They added Sheffield, Newcastle etc due to the additional demand. But the new dates weren't selling too well- these cities are difficult to sell out. I'm from the UK, I've been to every Gaga tour, I know these things. No girl sells out these venues. Mrs Carter skipped going there just for an example. It's not hating it's just fact. Low population, big arena size, late announcement.

Ticketmaster has been known to cater to ticket scalpers by withholding seats and giving them off. That's nothing new, and it's one of the reasons why Gaga does the pre-sale code things on LM.com for the fans. But who really cares about how many seats were added or removed after the fact? If they're reported sold out then that's what it will be, if not who cares!?

Ok, but that has nothing to do with Gaga right now.

The shows were just announced, you can say all that if/when Gaga doesn't sell out there. So until then, this is disruptive.

Sis you're doing to much on the good sis.
He loves Gaga and he's just stating how hard it has been selling out those two venues in the past even when the demand has been huge

Sheffield & Newcastle and other smaller cities are harder to sell out, just in general

MCSWT Beyoncé didn't even go there, she doubled up on the other cities instead

then why is gaga doing them?

I'm not sure, her tour promoter must have an indication that there is the demand there to sell enough tickets to make a profit, or perhaps Gaga just prefers to do more cities than multiple dates in one

What are the stadium dates so far and what's the seventh?

Dubai I believe.

Great.

I hope that doesn't turn into a Jakarta sized mess

Not happening

Her tour is doing amazingly!
So proud of her

Change the OP another date has been added in France,this time in a 17000 capacity one

24-Nov-14 Paris, FR Bercy

I wasn't even talking about these dates. My reply was to someone talking about the Latin American dates from the BTWB.

You're so desperate and eager to jump and try to invalidate Gaga that you reply to something that had nothing to do with these dates.

Seethe. I love how angry Gaga's success makes you.

UK knows how to appreciate a real talent!

Montreal - Plains of Abraham
Tokyo - Chiba Marine Stadium x2
Seoul - Olympic Stadium
Istanbul - ITU Stadium
Athens - Athens Olympic Stadium

New Dubai - Meydan Racecourse

This is the dates I think, I could be wrong.

And the amount of people that were pissed off because Beyonce didn't go near them was massive, it was the same with gaga i saw dozens of people complaining that she wasn't going near them, the fact they're smaller makes 0 difference
