Now that I think of it. I saw Gaga perform a few dates before her hip injury. I would have never known back then that something was up with her hip, but I knew she had to be tired. She performed like a soldier. But seriously THIS should never happen again.

They worked her into the GROUND!
That really is crazy
And I mean it's one thing when you're touring the US (usually staying in one timezone for awhile and flying way less), but to have so few breaks when you're hopping from country to country, on planes every night and constantly being jetlagged? That must be so exhausting
TBH she probably did the BTWB dates so close to each other to finish it sooner and release new music. People were ready for new music when the BTWB started
The ArtRave dates look evenly spaced out this time. It was clear that she was definitely getting tired around the U.S dates. She stopped taking as many people backstage and her dates were spaced out more normally. That schedule above with about a 2 and a half hour show full of dancing and stuff is NOT the business. Especially with her doing stuff for the FAME perfume and traveling so much.
I'm also mad that instead of utilizing the elevator they made her use the stairs with heels on Hopefully her safety is number 1 this time around.

Evenly spaced out and a nice break in June and August/September

I need to make up for my lack of seeing her live. Had 4 tickets to the Detroit BTWB show
She needs to add more ARTRAVE dates!
I really wish I could get a version sans the bridge.
But other than that... Its a guilty pleasure. The "woop woop woop" sound on the 2nd verse makes me so happy.
