Well if I remember correctly, the last couple shows of the Monster Ball ended with BTW, and the very last 2 dates even had Judas, so...

But on the whole... artRAVE was Gypsy on the piano, JWT was Million Reasons, Enigma is Shallow...

She has completed about half of her contract stipulated 74 shows. So far she’s done 39 shows with 48 dates released. She HAS to extend for the remaining of 2020

Well her contract was for two years, from December 2018 - December 2020... but she'll probably extend that into 2021

Well, it's the first time that she's releasing new music while doing an existing show since the Monster Ball, so maybe those situations are the ones we should actually compare?

Hmm I was thinking this, but its probably better that the Encore is a ballad of some sort... I mean, all her tours have ended in a ballad on the piano   so Shallow is probably staying there... unless the 2nd single is a ballad

Not really though. She’s done variants of the Encore on the piano at selective dates, but all tours (except the Joanne World Tour) have the studio versions as closing songs. And I prefer it that way cause Shallow lacks epicness as a closing song.

She will probably replace Shallow for Stupid Love as an encore and maybe sing a second single (if there is any)

the whole The Fame-Beautiful Dirty Rich-Applause segment could be interchangeable

Shallow isn't going anywhere. It's her most highly awarded song and one of the GP's favorites. She might move it to a different part of the show, but she ain't getting rid of it, or the locals will  be in an uproar. 

It's hard to know how she'll switch up things because we don't know what other songs, if any, will be released by the next set of dates. I could see SL working with the Bad Romance and Born This Way segment before the encore, but in that case, I wonder if she'd remove a song from earlier in the show, or would the concert just be a few minutes longer?

Honest question:

will the coronavirus affect Enigma?

i hve tickets for for May and the US is staring to have cases everywhere. I’m hope it doesn’t affect concerts and shows.

I have a feeling she will perform it as normal and then take a break from Enigma. No new dates have been announced.  Maybe there will be a tour as rumored?  As she has a contract in Vegas she could return to it later with a revamped show incorporating some new songs?

Well yes cause I think Gaga likes having ballads at the end of her tours to bring down the mood after dancing and stuff  and actually, she released Cheek To Cheek during artRAVE     it makes sense to have a ballad of some sort

[InsomniaMonster69 3,471]

Maybe she'll do stupid love instead of shallow or add stupid love after shallow since shallow is an important hit. 

Maybe she'll skip 'I'm afraid of American' and add a second new song.

[xoxo Craig 55,649]

She can take out the Bowie cover, imo it doesn't add anything to the show   replace that with Stupid Love or 2nd single

Ok, but she hasn't always done this. Not really sure where Stupid Love would fit into the setlist, and to be fair I'm not even sure they could technically squeeze anything new in-between songs. That's why, to me, it makes more sense to finish with it and symbolically open the door to the new era. Those are just my 2 cents about it.

This possibility has occurred to me. I have tickets to an Elton John concert in a couple of months and have wondered the same thing. In other countries, concerts and other public events have been cancelled, so yes, it could happen. Hell, it looks like the summer Olympics may be cancelled. It's too early to know. Hopefully the virus will have peaked by then and all will be fine, but mentally, it's probably not a bad idea to brace yourself just in case. 

If it does go on, I wonder if she'll still lick Sloan's finger at Enigma and drink random people's champagne at J&P.
