Who said Lady Gaga fell off?! It's packed as hell in here! #ArtRave #ArtPopBallTour

[LoveLiveMusic]

Am I the only one who didn't mind Lady Starlight? The beats were repetitive and I wish she used more known songs. The only one I remember was 'Boy Oh Boy' by Diplo and GTA.

! Is this up to date?

Gaga is 24 shows into artRAVE. That number includes the first 14 shows only.

One question to those who have recently attended the show! After all the changes (shortening Sexxx, deleting MJH and Fashion! and the new TEOG/Judas/Aura medley) how long is currently the show? 90 minutes? It was already a short show, which is not that bad, but now she's changing a lot of things and not making it up in any way.

I think we need to stop worrying about the US dates. Today, Dallas, and Phoenix are the only underwhelming dates. She'll still gross 800k-1.1M for each date which is great.

Just wait until the European/Asian dates where she's selling out every date.

OMG! I Am so mad right now! What the **** happened to the Dallas show seats? A few weeks ago when I looked all those seats were pretty much taken and now so many of them are blue and at a WAY lower price than they were originally set for UGH Now I'm stuck in cheap seats in the section 316 area and I wont be able to switch tickets out or anything. This is stupid.

For Toronto where she first added The Edge of Glory and Judas but removed Mary Jane Holland I do think the show was about 90 mins. She also came on around 9:30, when the ACC said she would be on at 9.

Last night was the best! I'm a chart and sales freak, and I didn't even care that it wasn't 100% sold out! There was still lots of people and everyone had a great time!

Why does the GA look so empty? :/

I know they need some space for emergencies, but this looks way too empty.
They should sell more GA tickets, theres probably more space because the stage is so high and people can stand underneath the runways.

[Bang Up]

The GA thing has been explained like, a dozen times already.

It’s already been established by several people how GA works. GA tickets are sold according to the size of the floor space; X amount of tickets are sold per X feet of floor space. The thing about Gaga’s shows is that the GA is usually filled with the most dedicated fans who tend to move to the front, meaning there will always be space left in the back because of how tightly-packed people become during the show. Venues cannot predict how tightly-packed the crowds will be once people move towards the front, and they cannot risk selling too many tickets for the GA because then that can be a fire hazard.

For those who don’t understand, here are some graphics I threw together.



Let’s say the above photo is Gaga’s GA.



Here is Gaga’s GA with a “full crowd” of 80 people. Let’s say this is one ticket/person per each foot of floor space. According to the venue, this would be considered “full”.



Now here is the same “full crowd” of 80 people pushed towards the front as Gaga takes the stage. See the difference? See how a huge space opens up in the back? Does that mean less people are there? Of course not, both photos depict a crowd of 80 people. But the thing is, more tickets can’t be sold because the show has already started, and the venue could not have predicted beforehand how the crowd would react and how tightly packed it would become, thus meaning they wouldn’t have been able to sell more tickets beforehand in fear of overpopulating the space provided.



Now here is a crowd nearly 240 people, or three times the size of the crowds above, in the same space. Now tell me, what would happen during an emergency? Where would people evacuate? How would people evacuate safely? Simply put, they wouldn’t be able to, which is illegal in America.

If you have any common sense, you would understand why it’s incredibly important to make sure there is enough space for people to be able to evacuate.

My favorite outfit from last night's show

[Slim Shady]

Who woulda thought that 6 years later that the random weird girl who performed some song called Just Dance on Miss Universe would be performing in sold out arenas as the most relevant pop star in our time

[jim19911126]

Can she cuts Swine from the list and makes Applause as the final song?
Also bring back Fashion! and Sexxx Dreams in full!

I just watched the perform of Swine on YouTube, it's awful and the song is bad either
She slayed (also shocked) at SXSW with Swine, but in artRAVE is just a MEH.
She puts this song after Applause is really weird and not working at all.
I didn't see audience has any responses during the perform, only her screaming "JUMP! DANCE! SCREAM!!!"



Anyone here had been to show, please share your experience during Swine?
