i hope not

zombieboy disease garden of eden and hbduwm perfomances were so cringe im sorry

I wouldn’t call them cringe.. they were all great and zombieboy was camp. But I do agree in the sense that these are all her new songs and she just kinda sang them without many theatrics. I think there will be more in store during MB

I think we should prepare for the act structure, the choreo and some song sequences, and maybe the bigger set pieces to carry over to the tour. Coachella was a very MAYHEM-centric show and tour will be too, so I expect the more intricate song transitions to remain. And she's talked about using less resources lately so that could easily apply to at least recycling the physical stuff we saw. If it ends up being completely different take it as a surprise gift! If it's largely the same and just expanded to fill a longer set then everyone who participated in Couchella gets to see her best show to date IRL.  

 

Yeah I definitely think the staging will, if not the same, be stylistically similar.

The way this production was so carefully planned at every detail makes me think the same will happen with the Mayhem Ball. It really set a standard for her performing wise and it feels like she finally caught up to the heights of Beyoncé. If she's following that standard the tour will be new and unexpected too but I can totally see it being reused for the tour. It's just such a good and masterfully created show that it would be almost a pity to only show it twice

Well also, remember when TCB stage was revealed and she completely changed the aesthetic? She could easily do some complete 180 with how we view mayhem and the tour could be wildly different than this show

I don't understand why a lot of people think that, has she ever reused past concerts for her tours?

Because she's literally entered a tunnel of performances that will last until November with very few breaks and there's realistically not a ton of time to revamp anything.

I'd say the first half of Coachella is very clearly made with the tour in mind. I'm expecting at least the structure of the first two acts to make it on tour. The second half seems to be a bit more flexible so I imagine there would be more changes there.

I'm so lost.

If she was to keep this show for the tour... how would she do, for example, poker face? she doesn't have a square stage to do the chess board. Also, she said she put the tour together very quickly and that it's made for arenas bc she wanted this and that, so maybe the tour is something completely different.

+ She has like a month to rehearse between the last stadium mayhem show and the beginning of the official mayhem ball.

I think like others have said, it’s gonna be a mix of the Coachella show and new stuff she has up her sleeve. The shows aren’t that far apart from each other but she also has more time to finesse the show, she has to probably consolidate the set design a bit, etc. she’ll probably keep a lot of the choreography, video interludes, setlist but add/subtract different songs, wardrobe, etc. 

[KindnessPunk 1,891]

It’ll probably be in the same vain, as in theatrical, but I really feel like the setlist will be different. Some numbers I could see her bringing to the tour, but overall I feel like it’s gonna be different 

[LOVEDRUG 10,334]

I think that stylistically it'll be similar, with similar outfits and set pieces.

But the show won't be the exact same. It's almost impossible. Some parts of the show (Disease in particular) were very clearly made for the livestream and wouldn't at all translate to an arena.

[South Blonde 5,841]

I think the Mayhem Ball will be a different show (still same choreo and aesthetic I guess but slighly different structure). Otherwise the separation between the tour and the other shows would not make any sense.

The other promotional concerts (Rio, Mexico City and Singapore) will probably a revamped Gagachella: she'll change a few songs or outfits bad that's pretty much it.

it won't need be a revamp if it has been planned alongside these promotional dates

the last date of the promotional tour is may 24th, the first date of the mayhem ball is july 16th

that gives about 2 months of hardcore rehearsals (assuming everything is ready) and i imagine most of the choreography will remain the same

My theory is Coachella + Copacabana + New Elements = MAYHEM BALL

the Mayhem demons are the plot for the Ball imo. 

[monstertoronto 9,245]

There was a lot of budget for those sets and and costumes and video interludes. I would actually be happy if that amazing show was the tour.  I feel she would use a lot of that. 

[Raivo 173]

Well, since she originally planned to tour in 2026, I presume she will take A LOT from Coachella and other upcoming stadium shows, otherwise I don't think they would have "rushed" the tour like that. In that sense I feel happy I watched the Coachella show yesterday as I didn't manage to score TMB tickets T_T

I predict the stage would be different + there might be even more story to be told.

At the Mayhem Ball instead of skeletons she'll be ragging around little twinks from the audience in each city
