Will the show be revamped for stadiums?

[hELXIG 43,704]

If she's only doing a few stadiums in Australia and then back to arenas do you guys really think they're gonna shell out the money to pull the Coachella stage out of storage, fly it down to Australia, then fly it back and swap back to the arena stage? Because I'm pretty sure the ones in control of the money would only be allowing her to just use the one stage the whole tour

Edit: Which makes me really nervous that they've sold a high percentage of early entry GA floor tickets because it's a stadium, but the stage will be small, and so there will be a fight for the first few front rows   I was really hoping my $700 would secure front row (or close) but I'm getting scared and it's only 12 days away eeeek

Do you think there will be changes?

the next shows are in stadiums already and the current tour stage will look so small

It'll likely use the promo tour's version of the opera house staging and keep the show as it is. 

The only main change between the promo stage and the arena stage was they condensed it a little and changed the shape of the b stage.

They'd only need to import the larger opera house from the coachella staging. The stage itself and everything else will be sourced via LiveNation Australia's equipment. 

So it wouldn't actually be that much of an increased expense. And given the smallish gap between the last European show and the first Aussie show - chances are the set design had already been loaded and was on route to Australia even before the last show on the 22nd.

I still have a feeling they'll cheap out and just keep the same stage touring for the whole tour instead of doing all the extra organising and expending any more money than they have to. BUT.. I hope I'm wrong and they bring the big stage. It's only fair for the VIY front row walk considering the crowd is so much larger..

I hope not, she's about to get a 250k+ attendance they can afford the extra expense.

250THOUSAND people??

Y'all are stressing me OUT 

 

Edit: okay I was mad the second this messy tour started rolling out and I'm mad now still. These shows have 3 GA floor standing ticket types. GA front, GA rear, GA front VIP early entry. Which made me think early entry (for 700 ****ing dollars AUD) was only going to be a small portion of people. Maybe enough so everyone gets front row or second row. Now I'm worried there are SO many people that it could be as far back as 5th row. And then that makes me mad because the people who paid for front GA would be so far back for something titled 'front GA'. All these different tiers of ticket prices are so extortionate and not fair. F.ucking hell Gaga when did you become like this? I expected so much more from her

I do think folks expecting any major shakeups are in for a rude awakening. 

But I don't think it would be that much more costly for them to bring the stadium scale opera house vs the arena scale opera house. Given the stadium sets were last used in Singapore there's potential they may have been stored in SEA/Oceania ready for use on this return leg.

I expect them to use the Coachella/Mecixo stage. The catwalk would be different as it’s square shaped. Setlist remains the same

Either it will have longer catwalk, or omitted altogether.

I can’t see them eliminating the catwalk tbh. 

I'm still so confused as to why they had to remove the catwalk for the artRAVE 's stadium dates when there was more space than arenas. The JWT made sense since the catwalks were suspended from a ceiling (but then, they should have booked places with roofs )

Goofy past decisions make me think the stage will be gutted for the larger venues.

Maybe they saw the plexi glass catwalk fees during budgeting inflated too much for stadiums and decided to axed it

You're having the same crash out I've been having for ages  

One day I'm watching her old tours, fan videos, and listening to her music and basically crying 'cause "omg I'm so excited to see her again 🥹 and I'm bringing two people to their first Mother Monster concert and I was able to get them VIP too 🥹 I love being a Monster so much 🥹"

The next day I'm like "I really bought eight tickets to three separate dates of this f*ckass tour huh?  Mother Monetary Gain is out here squeezing my ass for several grand and how is she allowing people to sell her tickets to her show for $10k+? Doesn't this bitch have enough money already tf? I'm disgusted "

Then the third day, "I'll always remember the time we painted each other's faces and called each other Monsters "

Truly we're in some weird parasocial/abusive relationship with full blown Stockholm syndrome the insane amount of money we're, honestly, being robbed of gives us permission to bitch though

The show looked like a highschool play without those catwalks

Can you post a pic of the map of the venue? This will probably be distributed like all of Europe has had.
