PACKED arenas or massive stadium crowds?

Honestly, the smaller the better. I love Gaga performing in clubs for example. I still consider her very first promo performances the very best. The crowds go wild and the atmosphere must've been amazing.

Arenas:

-You can be closer to Gaga if you have seating tickets.

-Experience is better and so sound is.

-Smaller and better, feels closer to fans and atmosphere.

-Packed GA.

-Gaga's management can have more control on sales and dates, for example: It's not the same having one sold-out arena show and then adding another arena show than having one almost sold-out stadium, if you know what I mean.

Check out a pic of the Palau Sant Jordi I took a few moments before the show started, notice how GA is starting to be empty in the back.

I'd say arenas for the overall enjoyment on the part of the fans. On the other hand, I feel stadium shows would be great once in a while as it does feel like a milestone event on the part of the artist.

I would like her to do 70 out of 100 arenas and 30 in stadiums just to show Gaga´s celebrity power.

I want her to do Wembley Stadium too! Maybe if she came to Europe twice next time, Wembley Stadium the first time, 2 or more dates (however much she can sell out) then the second time 3 or 4 shows at the O2 Arena for a more intimate experience. But she has to do Wembley Stadium at some point, she is big enough.

AMEN!

if she doesn't move up to stadiums (esp here in australia), people will think that gaga hasn't GROWN. people will eventually think, gaga has been around for___ years yet she's hasn't been able to do sydney football stadium, etihad stadium, like eminem, coldplay, etc?

i'd personally love to experience a gaga ball in a stadium, as i've never been to a headlining one-act stadium concert ever!

wembley is EPIC. see the start of the michael jackson to see what i mean

EDIT: michael jackson between 1992 and 1997 only did THREE arena dates- in PERTH, AUSTRALIA (as the stadium had bad sound). every other single tour date he did was in super-sized arenas like tokyo dome or in stadiums :deadbanana:

Lol that's the OLD wembley stadium! The new one is alot bigger, better sound and the stands are taller so everything feels closer.

Depends... if it can be reasonably predicted that the stadium will be sold out (twickenham stadium, stade de france where I incidentally went :hehe: ) then Stadium > Arenas. In low-selling places a full arena is better.

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

compare this, from brisbane entertainment centre. 0:14. ridiculously small crowd. BORING!

http://youtu.be/Z__oOb9kF6s?t=14s

to this: (old) wembley (yep, i've seen the new wembley on the muse 2007 dvd lol). 72000 PEOPLE.

http://youtu.be/fy-3aPvYkkA?t=2m10s

same intro. same tour. different venues.concertgoers of almost the same ethnicity (examples of generalisations- japanese are more reserved and brazilians go nuts at concerts). both the british and aussies waited ages (10 years or so) for michael, but the brisbane crowd looks so TAME compared to the wemblet crowd.

and coldplay at suncorp stadium, 2012

having bigger crowds just adds to the magic.
