Plus on the JWT the DIC segment was essentially on a 360 stage and if they just 3-4x the size it’d basically be a 360 stadium stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyVersace 8,776 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I want a physical set. I miss TMB and BTWB stages that acted as environments with props. I think something like the massive castle is way more Gaga than just big screens. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't super elaborated but it had a nice big catwalk, big screens and the circle cutout in the middle instead of a square boxy one. Very simple yet super effective in combination with all the backdrops, choreo and props used during the show. I saw Renaissance from all the way in the very, very back. Though Beyonce was a tiny little stick figure, it was honestly amazing how the entire stage was used. It was visual overstimulation at its best and most trippy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstermilo 3,681 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 this pic that another user posted on the adele post stuck in my mind from a few days ago, something like this would be epic -imagine gaga with 50 dancers lining the catwalks.....

I think something like the massive castle is way more Gaga than just big screens. I came here to say this! With BTWball she wanted to be really innovative and bring a theatre experience. She wanted all the movement on stage to be from dancers and props, not screens with visuals, and it was so effective! It really gave space for creative choreograph too because they positioned dancers in more empty areas of stage at certain times to create movement. It felt so alive! Nothing is more exciting than her riding in with her hands cuffed on a unicorn, seductively dancing on a desk, shooting the villain, giving birth to herself through a giant inflatable pregnant stomach, riding around on a mortorcycle which converts into a piano, showing up in different parts of the castle for different segments, amazing choreography, mother G.O.A.T... And the castle?? So original and such an interesting background. Way more exciting than screens with visuals. But why not both? Also artRAVE was also incredible and unique with the massive runways, the Venus flowers, confetti, the best lights and lasers of any of her shows, pig people spraying paint onto canvasses, being lifted up in the air on a giant monster paw hand, and sooo many costume and wig changes! Constantly exciting, bright, electric! It was so exciting seeing her totally transform for each segment I miss the innovation and passion. Her stage shows are always amazing and totally worth going to, but they don't blow your mind like they once did. I want the big productions back!

hELXIG 41,584 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) I think it would be cool if she had catwalks running the perimeter of the floor area and all the fans are on the inside. That way nobody has a bad seat! Kinda like the artRAVE. I made this out of Saturday night home alone boredom... She could move between the stages after quickchanges in the tunnels inside the runway. Maybe the one at the back has the piano rise up out of it for the piano section to surprise the back row idk. Sorta like at the artRAVE how she sinks into the stage for Donatella wearing the white outfit and blonde bob.. then the Venus interlude starts and she reappears in just a seashell bikini with massive brown curls! .. I think some houdini magic would be fun! Maybe she disappears into the mini stage on the left, and reappears sitting AT the piano at the back stage in a new outfit, playing it as it rises out of the stage. The only problem is every venue is a different size so it's not practical at all they even left the monster pit behind when she came to NZ in 2012 so we got the B show. But idk maybe they could make it like a kitset thing where the size can be adjust to suit each venue Edit: OH! One more thing... I want her to bring back fair ticket pricing like she did with the BTWball. She spoke about how she specifically didn't want tiered pricing and wanted the tickets to be reasonably priced, so everybody had the chance to attend and have a good experience, not just people with a lot of money, hence her selecting fans from the crowd to do a meet and greet and not paying for it.. that has changed a lot since..

The only problem is every venue is a different size so it's not practical at all they even left the monster pit behind when she came to NZ in 2012 so we got the B show Also it would be cool to have some kinda setup so she disappears in one place and appears in another after a quick change. That would be so fun! Idk how it would work but some houdini magic would be exciting. Sorta like at the artRAVE how she sinks into the stage for Donatella wearing the white outfit and blonde bob.. then the Venus interlude starts and she reappears in just a seashell bikini with massive brown curls!

My ultimate dream is to witness again long, connected, transluscent runways. artRAVE ones were perfect More big props, effects like rain/snow, fire. Make it a theatre again, we need a good plot and some drama. Hey! Who made these sketches? 😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy 5,237 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) The most iconic arena in my city is Hong Kong Coliseum, it is a pillar-less slanted structure. therefore almost all pop concerts by a-list stars here have 360 stages. The first time I saw a Western show with a so called typical layout was eye opening. I think these are some really interesting designs that the Western artists can use when they want a 360 stage. Joey Yung Pretty Crazy Concert in 2019 with a transforming sphere LED screen/stage. Hins Cheung The Next 20 Concert in 2020 with rising and transforming catwalks and a Time Machine gondola that brings him to the upper audiences. Mirror We.Are Concert in 2022 (although cancelled halfway due to a tragedy happened with an LED wall falling from the ceiling) multiple catwalks the rise and form patterns for the boyband to walk around Aaron Kwok de Aa Kode Concert in 2016 the stage starts out flat and transforms A 360 stage for Gaga which spins and transforms so that she can look at the front only and the stage spins her to every direction maybe is the way.

All these images are SUCH a serve I personally thought the Formation Tour had an amazing stage and I would love for Gaga to pull all the stops like that. I hope the LG7 tour has enough dates that Live Nation actually decides to invest in the staging. I loved the aesthetics of TCB but the stage wasn't really viewer-friendly. Is there some reason my LG7 isn't here? Has she died or something? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
