gaga couldve done screens this tall like beyonce did for her formation tour, i just dont get why theyre not investing in bigger screens in stadiums. 

Having only seen her in a stadium for the Chromatica Ball, I'll say that the screens are never done justice when seeing a video of the show and they really look give you a good view of everything... but it still isn't entirely amazing because its such a large space.

I don't know (from what I have seen of these stadium shows this tour) that the screens really could have gotten much bigger and think it would have been difficult for her to place screens further out in the stadium because it would start blocking people in the concourses. When I went to see Metallica I was luckily not blocked by the huge posts they had erected with screens... but a few people who also went told me it blocked them from seeing them on the stage at times and forced them to only focus on the screens.

I mean, the tea really is that stadiums lowkey suck for concerts. Most of the seats have a horrible view, depending on time of day you don’t have control over lighting, and the sound systems usually suck ass.

Stadiums are absolutely the worst venue for a concert! I'm glad that at least the MAYHEM ball is in arenas here in the US.

I get stadiums sell more seats and makes it easier to tour, and that is why I applaud artists will do numerous arena dates instead. The concert feels more intimate and not just an event you went to only to say you went to.

They said there would be other attacks? Damn I thought they were just target her. 

The most notorious group, Islamic Defenders Front, called Lady Gaga a “messenger of the devil” and vowed to turn out at the airport by the thousands if she tried to step off the plane. Others said they bought tickets so they could wreak havoc from inside the 52,000-seat stadium in the capital, Jakarta.

Ah I thought you meant there'd be random attacks in the city or something instead of violence focused on her/the concert 

But yeah, crazy times to be a fan.
