If the stage layout for a venue includes the catwalks it means it will be there, right?

The stage itself, that the castle sits ON is different. Look the Dublin one, and then the Tokyo/Greece/Dubai etc.
And why weren't there catwalks in Dublin ? I thought it was arena..

I think the GA bit was too small for it

The Dublin arena was tiny.

It's actually the same capacity as most of the US arenas she played in, but its shape means that the walkways don't really fit.
It's shape was designed specifically so that no matter what ticket you have, no matter where in the arena you are, you feel really close to the stage - unlike a lot of arenas where you can find yourself really far back and having to look at the screens for the whole show.

This is more like an amphitheater. It has a capacity of 12,500-13,000 people in complete configuration like Gaga. But the GA is really tiny and most of the capacity is concentrated in the seating part of the arena.

You need to stop complaining about her best tour.

It's my opinion. Deal with it.
It is very, very far from her best tour. It's her weakest tour.

Not really! The only difference between tokyo, Dubai, Israel, Istanbul and Greece was the different stage that the artrave stage placed.

This is incorrect. The standing capacity is 8,000 while the seating capacity is 6,500.
The 3Arena in Dublin is a full-sized arena which just happens to be shaped like an amphitheater and clearly is deceptively big.

Not so nice of an answer tho and it's his opinion and no offence but he saw the show from seats if I got it right and a show without the catwalks. My girlfriend enjoyed being ga without catwalks, loved the show with catwalks but with seats and no catwalks in Dublin said it's a mediocre show and her sister told me the itunes festival was more of a gaga show and more entertaining

Have you guys seen the GA of the O2 Arena?
I think it's obvious why it didn't have catwalks when you compare it to other arenas, the GA is really different

I went to two shows, one with and without the catwalks and it makes a huge difference to the show, and not only that it doesn't feel the same, but also you miss out on the Monster Claw chair, and the mushrooms during Venus etc. The only benefit I felt from having the show at a main stage and like I've said before, that no matter how many people say otherwise, that being on the floor with the catwalks doesn't give you a complete view of the show.
I dunno if it feels like her weakest show, but like someone said, that all her shows even dating back to The Fame Ball had some sort of storyline along to it, but this really didn't other than the sparse song cohesion but I really did feel I enjoyed it more because it was a much more enthusiastic atmosphere and that it wasn't as story driven like the Born This Way Ball was, which personally I would put as fifth place of her shows.

I haven't seen it, but from the videos that's the feeling I get - and I mean it's probably what she's going for, to make it different, but that doesn't make it a very good idea. It just feel totally random and not very well thought out. Like it was thrown together and just left as it. '
I mean I'm 100% sure that's exactly what Gaga was going for, a "rave", not a tour - but it is a biT of a mess at times.

I dunno if you're being serious or not, but I didn't know this. I really thought it was a more solid structure. But it kinda makes sense to go minimalist since its not like it would be getting much use like the Born This Way Ball castle did.
