KleinGa 18,177 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 EXCLAIM 9/10 stars "A seasoned performer and the owner of a relentless discography laced with glittery hits, Lady Gaga kicked off her Joanne World Tour in Vancouver last night (August 1) to a sold out Rogers Arena filled with Little Monsters. And boy, did they get what they paid for." "The show was pure Gaga, clocking in at over two hours and incorporating fire, theatrical dance numbers and plenty of that unstoppable voice. Moments that featured the singer alone at the piano — especially the ballad version of "Edge of Glory" — really drove home the flawlessness of her vocal range. But seeing her onstage dancing nearly continuously as she delivered her hits never failed to be impressive, either." https://www.exclaim.ca/music/article/lady_gaga-rogers_arena_vancouver_bc_august_1 THE GLOBE AND MAIL: The production on this show was jaw-dropping, eyebrow-raising, stunning and seamless, with intricate choreography along with pyrotechnics, and a complex, ingenious design. A multiplatform main stage that took on countless configurations was as shape-shifting as the singer has been herself. Lighting pods hanging from the ceiling became video screens, then descended to become catwalks (and then flipped onto their sides to become video screens once again), giving Gaga and her gang of fantastic dancers bridges so they could spread out to smaller platforms across the floor and finally to the other side of Rogers Arena, where a jagged-heart-shaped light-up piano awaited. The whole place was her stage. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/music/review-gaga-kicks-off-joanne-tour-with-jaw-dropping-vancouver-show/article35862018/ CTV News VANCOUVER The shape-shifting stage set, production, choreography and bold fashion decisions were uniformly faultless throughout – a series of avant garde and occasionally disturbing videos admirably filling the many gaps when Gaga was off stage changing costumes – but as an artist she remains at her very best when stepping out of character to reveal her vulnerability and not inconsiderable natural charm. She displayed both in the introduction to “Joanne,” sitting high above the crowd with an acoustic guitar explaining the tragic origin of the album and tour title before calling for a communal moment of shared grief and introspection. http://bc.ctvnews.ca/review-lady-gaga-brings-pride-and-passion-to-vancouver-1.3529587 METRO UK: "Lady Gaga gives Beyonce a run for her money with oodles of costume changes during first gig of Joanne world tour " "Lady Gaga absolutely stunned the crowd at her Vancouver show opening her Joanne world tour, and not just for her faultless performance." Not only were fans mesmersied by the stunning visuals and vocals of the show at Rogers Arena, the 31-year-old’s costumes were a serious talking point. From gowns to feathers, to shoulder-padded leotards, Lady Gaga had an ostentatious outfit for every occasion. And serious kudos to her for managing to find the time to pull each one off.

There was a white sequined bodysuit. There was a black, barely-there bodysuit. There was a red cutout bodysuit. There was a a blue, structured bodysuit. There was even a black bodysuit with one floral arm sleeve. Gaga looked stunning in each of them. And the outfits were versatile: Each was paired with either a voluminous skirt, sequined cape, puffy coat or fringed jacket that were added or subtracted during the costume-heavy show. The show's staging was impressive.
