Is The Monster Ball overrated because of Gaga's success?

Here in GG all of Gaga's projects that succeed are called overrated, then when she flops is the second coming  :awkney:

This is not true. Everywhere the less successful works get to receive the sympathy of the fanbases but this is not always the case.

I think the ArtRave might be her best sofar, because of the flow of the concert, the rave feel, and her vocals are better than any older tour.

TMB is iconic because she was at her (first) peak, and the interlude videos were flawless

If only everyone in this thread would accept different opinions. Just because the majority of people thinks the Monster Ball is Gagas best concert tour, it doesn't mean it actually IS the best. The only thing that counts is what you PERSONALLY think. And no opinion, even if it's a popular one, is a threat to how you see things. So calm down Gentlemen.

 

I personally can't decide, I love all her concert tours.

It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead.

I can't say anything about it because I was never there.  :flop:

 

artRAVE was the best night of my life and footage can't capture how amazing it was, I will assume it's the same for TMB.

 

The HBO special looked pretty good though.  :wub:

No.

People just like to pick pocket the TFM era now because it's not cool to like the most popular era. What an odd mentality. It's not overrated; it just deserves to be praised. Let's be real here; TMB ****s on any tour Gaga has done. BTWB could've been a close second if it wasn't for the messy later legs of the tour (SA & NA). artRAVE looks great visually and she performs most of her new album, but it isn't my cup of tea.

It definitely deserves to be praised, as I said in the first sentence it's amaziing Tour. I talked about the fact that many overrate everything about it. I personally think that all Gaga's Tours had their positive elements that make them unique. Gaga always tried to make different things in every tour.

TBTWBT blown me away. I remember my gasps everytime the stage navigates and unravels itself. I cannot compare it to TMB because i only watched the DVD but definitely TBTWBT is one of the moments in my life that took my breathe away.

Some of them want to abuse you, some of them want be abused.

Yes, definitely. I've been to TMB 1.0 & 2.0, TBTWB, and artRave. TMB was definitely the least best of them all.

I think the monster ball 1.0 was her best show that I've attended. The fame ball and monster ball 1.0 were gaga shows at its best. The monster ball 2.0 show was really fun too but I prefer the theater version since its a smaller stage. Just because a tour has a bigger stage doesn't mean its better than her previous tours with smaller stages (talking about the btw ball). Reason why I didnt attend born this way ball (besides getting canceled) is because the stage is TOO big and distracting. When I went to the artrave I thought the stage wasnt going to be that big but I was underwhelmed and there was just too much going on. I like gaga performances better in theaters (fame ball, swine fest) or clubs .

I've noticed this weird mentality around this forum lately too. Anything gagas done from 2008- early 2011 people see it as "messy" or "overrated" just because she was the it girl, popular and at her peak.

In that case I think that Roseland ballroom would have been ideal for you.

I don't think so because she performed a lot of songs i didnt like such as black jesus, dope, s-x dreams etc. A great friend of mine went to the last roseland show and she said the stage was great but the energy was really low. I think swine fest was amazing and I would have loved to see that show live.

Yes, Swinefest was really amazing. The Ballroom indeed had a different vibe. It was like older people attented the show.

It's not overrated, it's just that the other albums/tours are underrated

Maybe this is the reason as well. I like that answer. :koons:
