Gypsy Life 118,907 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 She should use the conflict excuse and cancel the show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PdogtheDaibutsu 717 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Justin Timberlake played a show at the same park in May. His numbers: 44,634 / 49,924 The conflict wasn't as bad back then, especially the months leading up to his concert. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewYorkCity 10,536 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Of course she's not selling well... A concert is not packed by fans only but also the GP. And I don't think that with the situation they have, they are thinking about a Lady Gaga concert. So yeah, in any other time she would have sold out (or at least very close to that). But now the best is to cancel, not only for sales but also because of the situation in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lego 44,165 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 http://www.nme.com/news/lana-del-rey/79071 Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Brian Jonestown Massacre, America and Backstreet Boys have all cancelled gigs in Israel in recent weeks, severely affecting the live music industry in the country. The gigs have been cancelled due to a mixture of safety concerns and artists dropping their shows in protest at Israel's actions in the Gaza conflict with Hamas. Cee-Lo Green and Megadeth axed concerts in Israel this week. Lady Gaga is due to play in Israel's capital, Tel Aviv, on September 13. Her promoter Arthur Fogel of Live Nation said: "We are watching the situation." Waging war is expensive. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollercoaster 2 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 It's not bad considering the conflict. I think if it's still this low at the end of August, it should be rescheduled for after the European leg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMROD 109,710 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Cancel it, Gags, for safety :troll: (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ dancin' until i'm dead (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houdini 103 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 tickets are on sale since early June and the conflict exploded early-july, so she has a month to sold 15,000 tickets in a peaceful environment. The conflicts is not a factor to explain the poor sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conflicts is not a factor to explain the poor sales. Tickets went on sale in Mid June on the 11th. She literally only had like 2 and a half weeks to sell in a "peaceful environment" so let's not.

GagaMyBlood95 9,915 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 No, she shouldn't cancel the show, she should just reschedule it! It's still a big concert after all, it would be a shame for her to miss this.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Blonde 6,210 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I think she should cancel the show. I don't wanna be selfish but let's think about her safety first of all + I don't think many people are still thinking about buying the tickets when a war is going on. Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
