PACKED arenas or massive stadium crowds?

Which road would you rather Gaga go down?

I was watching Beyoncé's I Am... Tour DVD the other day, and I noticed that whilst she plays mostly arenas (if gaga did this, most people on this forum would consider it a "flop" :roll: ), they're always filled (GA is packed), and the seating is full.

If you compare it to Gaga's Born This Way Ball, where she plays a lot more stadiums - I find that both her arena and stadium shows suffer from fifth-empty GA's (probably due to OH&S regulations), and seating is about 99% full.

So, would you rather Gaga do somewhat cheap-ticketed, massive stadium shows - or high-grossing and packed arena shows (limit two per city to assure crowds and demand)?

This is more of a simple thought provoking question about personal preference, rather than a "GAGA SHOULD DO THIS FOR ARTPOP!!111!" thread, and please no talk or discussion about sold out shows or anything like that. :toofunny:

Well, she is playing Arenas in the US...the arens aren't as packed as they used to be, but with the right promotion I would rather she do packed arenas and stadiums in larger cities, a la Madonna.

Arenas

Better experience than Stadiums.

Stadiums feel huge and empty.

Exactly my point.

Yep... and I don't think Gaga particularly enjoyed stadium shows that much.

The arenas´s sound is much better, and people feel more comfortable, besides there´s no weather problems.

The only disadvantage is for Gaga herself, she has to work more because she has to do more shows in a row. In big cities she could do stadiums instead of 3 or 4 shows in a row in an arena.

And there´s another disadvantage, I think. Its the fact that if she plays 3 or 4 dates in a row on the same arena, she gets less time to go to other cities. If she plays more stadiums, perhaps she´ll be able to add dates in cities she never visited or played less times.

Stadiums are basically for status, shows are best in an arena like people said before.

Stadiums are cool for rock bands, but for pop acts with theatrics and costumes and that stuff, arenas are much better.
