magicomg 0 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Forget about a show at Plains of Abraham, mayor of the city said only 20+ years career artist can perform here. The only way she can perform here is being part of the Quebec City's Summer Festival (wich is a free festival). It's a historic park, so the city wants to keep it the most intact possible.

Rainbow Unicorn 82 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 You're wrong sweetie. At Madonna's shows in Seattle, with a very similar stage to Gaga's, she played to 10,000 people. Gaga would only play to 10k at the Key. I've been to both venues, I've seen Madonna's boxscores. As for the Tacoma Dome I'm kind of sick of explaining this on GagaDaily. There is no real capacity for the venue despite what Wikipedia says. The venue is just a huge circle with no seats of floor. That's it. There's a backstage area attached, and there are portable restrooms and some stalls with food. They keep all of the seats out back and then push them in on the day of the show. The seats are bleachers. Because Gaga's stage was so huge, they only had about 10,000 seats worth of bleachers and 4,000 on the GA floor. The seats in the back however, are permanent unlike the lower level seats, so they just didn't fill them for the BTWB due to safety issues. I was told this by the event manager. Also because Gaga had a mix they didn't seat people in the middle, so it was mainly on the sides, GA, and some boxes in the back. The venue has no real "capacity" as if the bleachers weren't full they would just leave them outside. Her show was only 90 tickets away from selling out the Friday before the show on Monday, so it was officially soldout. Please believe me, I was there, I spoke to all the event managers, staff, security, box office, over my 3 days there, and did plenty of research. Also they let us watch them setup the stage which was cool. Madonna played for an average of 11 825 people in 2 nights at Key Arena and she has seats on the GA floor. The second show wasn't completely sold-out. So, the full capacity would be around 13,000/14,000. I don't see why she couldn't make a concert in a venue like that ? :yes: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Muse Tumblr 1 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 ...This is an issue that Beyonce's fans are complaining about right now - they're saying that because she continues to have arena tours, it's going to be next to impossible to get tickets whereas if she did a good mix of arenas and stadiums, all her fans would be far more likely to go. Her UK arena dates sold out in minutes but a lot of them were scalpers buying bundles of tickets specifically to sell on eBay for over ĂâÂŁ660 (yes, that much). If an artist does an arena tour, there is a massive chance of this happening and true fans not seeing the show. It's a lot less likely to happen for a stadium tour. I heard this situation happened for Gaga's 4 dates in Hong Kong. Had she gone for stadiums instead, it might not have happened. Stadiums also mean that it won't matter if a lot of casual fans want to go as with a capacity that high, they won't be denying lots of devoted fans their tickets. The smaller the venue, the more I think casual fans should think twice about booking if demand is high. beyonce is trying to be our generation's tina turner, but tina turner played to way more people and filled a whole lot more stadiums. her concert tickets were a lot more affordable too- tina really loves to play for 'the people'. who knows, maybe beyonce in ten more years will do less of this: and more of this: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hell0samuel 59 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I think she won't sell-out a lot of stadiums... But she can try where she's really popular, like Australia and keep with the stadiums in Europe (Stade de France/Aviva Stadium/Twickenham Stadium...) !

JustABadKid 0 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'd like her to keep it as a mixture. I don't think it's a good idea to play at the same place for multiple nights, but smaller venues allow her to go more places.  I just want her to come back to New Orleans. I don't know why New Orleans has been skipped by artists recently: Gaga, Florence + The Machine, P!nk, Beyonce, Ellie Goulding, etc.  Hopefully with arenas, she could schedule the almost guaranteed dates of Houston and Dallas, along with New Orleans and other southern areas (not just south Florida).  What I don't want is for her to perform one stadium show in Houston or Dallas and that's it for southern US. It just isn't fair. Regardless of the ticket prices, some of us don't have enough money for traveling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
