Lady Gaga - The MAYHEM Ball Tour

[hpmcmill 1,974]

Spent way too much money but got tix for MSG & Seattle!!

The prices for this are absolutely absurd. I refuse to be scammed like that and no artist is worth this amount of price gouging… you can see a four day festival and camping pass included for this bullshit price

We did have Platinum tickets in Belgium where you would pay almost 600 EUR for a regular seating ticket

$600 was the lowest price I saw for her NY shows, in the upper bowl. Pit/Floor was $1,900. It is so insane to me that her Pit tickets for CBT were $600. 

 

But Miami is also way cheaper than NY tickets so I think I'll unfortunately go there. I might just wait a couple of weeks to see if more shows get added, I'm not necessarily looking to travel that far for her show.

Accidentally bought tickets for opening night in Vegas (7/16) instead of Friday. If anyone wants them face value DM me! They are not cheap.. ****ing axs premium. 
 

axs won’t let me cancel it 😭

Was somehow able to get two 100s level tickets (section 12 row U) in Vegas for $197 USD each ($250USD total each with fees) through AXS.

 

Not feeling too bad about that given the madness that I saw in the NYC MSG Ticketmaster presale.

I will say $250 for section 100 is doable with the context of this shitshow tour (but still kinda atrocious considering her GA tix we’re that price for Chromatica tour)

It's not that serious. Life is about choices, if you choose not to do it, good for you. But don't go on rain other people's parade. That is where it gets toxic and unnecessary.

And calling her names won't help either.
 

People who afford it will still go and have fun. Concerts from A-List artists since the dawn of day have always been luxury item, and increasingly so today. It's unfortunate but that's how it is.

If you find it too expensive, I understand. But let those who want to pay this to see Gaga celebrate please

Honestly I'm going to try and resell my Manchester seats when they enable reselling, I can't justify the price I paid.

I think it's a case of Ticketmaster at the Co-op vs AXS at the O2, both have different pricing strategies/systems

C3 for London on the 4th!

Ah yes maybe! My normal tickets were AXS but VIP were Ticketmaster. Ooh so you're not far from me! Congrats on getting tickets, I know a lot of people who didn't get any

how does the artist presale usually go? I've never had this happen before and had to wait for that

I’m not stopping y’all from celebrating. By all means pad her nurtec checks with yalls rent money, y’all can ignore me. I’m just disgusted that fans are willingly being taken for a ride paying these absurd prices.

You are literally posting 6 times in half an hour in a very negative way, calling Gaga names and also sorta blaming the fans that did buy tickets. So yes, you are stopping people from celebrating by bringing this negative attitude in this thread. 
 

Are the tickets expensive? Yes. Did I wish she did stadiums or make sure fans were able to get tickets in an easier way? Yes. But dont go and call Gaga a greedy bitch or capitalist trash.

She is a greedy bitch for this and so are other stars of her status doing the same thing milking their fans. Concerts like these becoming only available to the wealthiest or those who are enough of a sucker to frivolously dump money they don’t freely have… 

sure it’s not that serious but I can rightfully call her out for being capitalist  trash for this and smh-ing at the fans mindlessly enabling this bloodsucking behavior.

So, sure it is what it is but don’t be surprised that folks are calling out her and her fans justifying this trash either.

and Gaga concerts weren’t always an out of reach luxury item. The first several tours, nosebleeds at the CWT and JWT were all affordable. Don’t retcon the past to justify this 

 

 

Nobody retconning the past, but the business has changed since then. 
Back then album sales were a primary source of income for artists, with touring serving as a promotional tool. Obviously that didn't happen anymore since the advent of streaming, hence the situation changed. Many artists are relying on their shows revenue now to get cash, other also selling their whole repertoire to a company, and/or being business women/men with side gigs such as selling cosmetics, liquor, luxe hair care, or lingerie.

Pretty much the same as pre-sales today, except usually you will need to input a password that you will get if you signed up. But this time there won't be be any password,
