(plus the ungodly amount of slayage we'd get. also people wouldn't arrive late because Olympic park was actually made to host big events and has efficient parking / public transport, Unlike moore park which was an absolute mess to say the least as it's like in the the city  )

I hear you bro. I mean, obviously stadiums are easier touring wise in terms of bigger audiences with a smaller amount of dates, but I'd prefer multiple arena shows to be honest. It's a better viewing experience as a fan IMO.
But pretty sure her next era is going to be State of Greatness style pop-country-rock so stadiums are the way to go.

Rihanna needs Eminem and Beyoncé needs her sister's punching bag.

Artists like Pink and Katy Perry do a ridiculous amount of shows at the same venue and they all seem to sell out. It's pretty insane. I think they'd be capable of doing stadium shows, but I think their sets might be more suited to arenas?
On Pink's last Australian tour, she did 18 (yes EIGHTNEEN) sold out shows at the one venue in Melbourne... 235k attendance just for the one venue. Katy Perry is doing 8 Melbourne shows on her upcoming tour here.
That's what you call a hectic tour schecule. It's why stadiums are so much easier. Maybe they don't make as much from stadiums since they have higher booking fees or something? Who knows.
I'd love to get a behind the scenes look into the whole tour planning process. I reckon it'd be extremely interesting in terms of the marketing and thought process behind it all.
