JeffSwift 314 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 it does seem ridiculous, but she really has to say that. since all concerts have an encore, of course people are going to be waiting around when she leaves the stage for the first time. if she says that scheisse is the last song and then comes out and does two more songs, it's clear that the show is over and people leave. if she didn't announce scheisse as the last song people might assume that marry the night is the end of the main set and still hang around. basically it's to get people to start to leave the arena and it works. that makes it not really an encore at all since it's so calculated, but that's her reason for doing it. I consider an Encore, when the performer leaves the stage and the entire crowd erupts in to an 'Encore' chant and the performer comes back and performs another song that they didn't plan on.

BANGERZ 0 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 What a boring crowd tbh! In Puerto Rico everyone stand up in that song and everyone were clappig and singing the song. This is the Moscow show. The public was leaving even during You and I. The public got pissed off because she was saying that it is cool to be gay.

Urban 9 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 she did the same at the Monsterball though, after paparazzi she said " goodnight everyone" and she made it seem like it was ending and then she came out with Bad Romance and (in some cases) Born This Way. It didn't seem so bad during the Monsterball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isla 2 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 A lot of singers do that - it's an encore. Most fans know what the setlist is anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miel 15,009 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 People actually left? Even as a casual fan, I would have been mad that she didn't perform EOG and would stay angrily. I mean, srsly? 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The public got pissed off because she was saying that it is cool to be gay. The public was leaving during You and I to get some drinks and go to the toilet, cause most of GP in Russia have never heard this song + Scheisse is, actually, the last song of the plot, it ends the show's story line: Gaga is ready to invade Earth. All the other songs are Encore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danveries 0 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 An encore is an additional performance added to the end of a concert, from the French "encore", which means "again", "some more"; multiple encores are not uncommon. Encores originated spontaneously, when audiences would continue to applaud and demand additional performance from the artist after the concert had ended. In some modern circumstances, encores have come to be expected, and artists often plan their encores. This is sometimes necessitated by noise curfews at venues, which may also sometimes require an artist to forgo encores if the concert has gone on too long. Traditionally, in a concert that has a printed set list for the audience, encores are not listed, even when they are planned. Though the word derives from French, French-speaking people commonly use either une autre, un rappel or the Latin bis in the same circumstances, but sometimes scream "encore!" to ask the artist for an encore. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encore_(concert) Seriously, people need to go to concerts more often. I understand she means that it's the last show of the main set, but the problem is that people have no idea there's going to be an encore and Gaga performs in front of a half empty venue: it definitely seems that she does that on purpose, but what's the point? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encore_(concert) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runway 27,876 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 it was sold out but the people didnt like the music, didnt like the show..... Yeah, because 1 show is totally representative of the remaining 70 Russia is a backwards country, of course they wouldn't like a show that supports the gay community Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HORRORHOLIC 68 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I understand she means that it's the last show of the main set, but the problem is that people have no idea there's going to be an encore and Gaga performs in front of a half empty venue: it definitely seems that she does that on purpose, but what's the point? 99% of all performers do this. It's just setting up the encore. I've been to literally hundreds of concerts and the only person who band/musician who wasa headlining act that didn't do an encore was Marilyn Manson, and only one show. I think it's common knowledge that this is what happens at concerts and has for many, many years so I can't see people actually thinking it's over. I consider an Encore, when the performer leaves the stage and the entire crowd erupts in to an 'Encore' chant and the performer comes back and performs another song that they didn't plan on. That's just not how it's done anymore. It was done like that way back in the day but since the 80's it's pretty much been how concerts are done Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
