Chicka 2,385 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I've only ever seen Gaga from seats, and pretty far away seats too. I wouldn't want them again though, even if I if they were really close. I've been to GA concerts for other artists, and the energy and excitement all day of waiting is really what makes the actual concert so exciting. When you park at like 6 oclock and sit in your seats, its just not the same experience. Especially for me, as a big Gaga fan, I've never been GA and i've never felt like my experience at the concert has lived up to how much I love her (don't get me wrong they've still been some of the best nights of my life and I still nearly pissed my pants all 3 times). So I got GA this time, thank god, and I'm prepared to get to the arena the night/afternoon before the day of the concert, because for how much time I devote to Gaga, why the **** not?

Ronk 14,560 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Front row lower level seats are perfect for videography because the view of the stage is unblocked. I had such a seat for artRAVE and today I got one for Joanne. I live outside the space time continuum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsTommyBitch 12,640 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 If you are like 5'2 like me, unless the artist's set up or stage or whatever is flawless, GA can be a nightmare unless you have a hot boyfriend and or sugar daddy to put you on his shoulders I went and saw Carly Rae Jepsen in GA and I basically just like, got glimpses of her and it was me dancing by myself to stuff I couldn't even see, which was fine, I still LOVED it, but I spent a good 30 minutes just trying to get a spot where I could see anything all for nothing and all of the assholes around me weren't having it, so it was kind of not as great as it could have been. In my experience with seats in the past (ArtRAVE) most people around you will get up and dance and its okay. Honestly, if there is even one or two people around you dancing in the seats, the atmosphere feels very comfortable. I know its possible people will be like "sit down!" but usually everyone stands when she finally comes out after the opening acts and if she opens strong, it will invite people to follow strong. I know some songs on Joanne aren't really "Dancey" or whatever, but still Personally, I'm also okay with sitting from time to time 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you will have a great time. I had seats for artRAVE but stood outside with others for a couple hours at the entrance where Gaga was to arrive. Then stood in the hall for a couple hours when the pre-shows were going on. It seems most people were out in the hall talking until Gaga took the stage. In my experience, there were hours of opportunity to meet and talk with people even though I had seats.

mcoop 628 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I've always done seats, but today I got my first GA ticket for gaga! I cant wait to experience it. I got the CTM ticket, so I'm hoping I won't have to wait in line too long, since we get early entry. Hope that benefits us and there aren't many so I have a great spot.

Guest ARTPOPSlays Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I usually get seats but I got floor tickets this time. I technically got seats this time too but it's reserved on the floor for the show I'm going to. I hope you have a fantastic time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseBabe 835 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I've had both GA and seats for concerts. I think the pros for seats are that you do get a guaranteed seat, you can really show up anytime you want. I showed up literally minutes before Miley Cyrus went on stage at the Bangerz tour and I just checked in and went to my seat with no problem. I think the con is that depending on your seat, you may not even really get to see them if you're really far away. And you might even have people that climb over seats to get closer. I one time had a drunk guy spill his entire beer on the back of my shirt at a Britney concert. Also most of the time people get up out of their seats anyway to dance and sing along so you're really not sitting that much anyway. The pros for general admission are that if you really love the artist, you're going to be surrounded by like minded individuals the entire evening. It's honestly such a fun experience. Plus you have a good chance (if you get there early enough) to be really close to the stage and a great view of Gaga feet away from you. Yeah you get pushed around, fans get excited, and you have to arrive earlier, but just the excitement and the atmosphere the entire time is one of the funnest things ever. Also, I guess it just depends on if you're around nice people, because if so they may be okay with saving your spot while you go to the bathroom and stuff. I would say get GA if you can!

highbythebeach 2,475 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I got pretty bad seats in the Vancouver show (the worst ones section 304 lol) I'm really scared if I'll be able to enjoy the show at all what are you guy's experience with seats that are like almost behind the stage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teal Ambition 47,805 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I never get GA mainly because I'm just lazy and I don't feel like getting there super early and wait in line I'm also short, so if anyone in front of me is tall then I'm screwed so I just get seats all the time. I was able to get seats right beside the stage, on the 7th row so I'm super happy! ▌│█║▌║▌║ before I am Canadian, I am Chromatican ║▌║▌║█│▌ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How early do you have to get there to be close to the front? Is 6 am going to pretty much guarantee you a pretty good spot? I have no idea how many people are going to be camping out the night before (if people even do that anymore). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
