In essence I agree with you. BUT if she fails to crack big numbers when it comes to album sales, can you imagine how would that affect the tour? A lot. It could be scaled down, maybe it wouldn't have as many dates, the possibilities are endless. It would really suck for her to receive such a huge blow now that she seems so happy and confident with the work she's done.

Not really, the MDNA tour proves that album and tour sales aren't always closely related. Now if the tour were to show disappointing numbers in its first leg then we may have a problem.

I hope this does not turn out to be true... this is actually embarrassing for Gaga and her team....

How is it this low? what the ****? i blame it on the album leak. I mean with all those torrents and monsters spreading illegal links to the music no wonder not as many people are buying it. not to mention people can just listen to the songs on youtube or spottily. this is kind of upsetting. ****ing prism will sell more than ARTPOP. what kind of ****ed up world do we live in where people think that generic bull**** should be bought more than true artistic and creative genius.

BTW leaked way earlier, and sold 3x as much. 5x as much if you count Amazon sales.

You cant compare that. Madonna has literally 20+ years of hits to sell a tour on, Gaga has 5 (and much less than that when you consider one of those years was a break, and another year is what we could assume caused this drop to begin with)

 

Im sure Gagas tour could still do amazing, but thats not being fair to Madonnas hard work to put those head to head

I think people are afraid of liking her. They are afraid of what people will think of them if they like her. This world is full of people who care too much about self image.

 

That is so true and so unfortunate.

 

 

So not many people are aware of artRAVE? Well then I will rectify that by tweeting and facebooking those links because folks need to see it. It was really a great show.

Maybe the fact that the album leak 10 days earlier?

honestly, people need to stop using this as an excuse. EVERY SINGLE ALBUM leaks, it's not unique or uncommon. Plus the fact that it leaked only 2 days before it was put up for official streaming, which, if anything, helped album sales.

Not really. Madonna is in a different league, she's a legend, people pay to see her because she's Madonna and her status not because of her music, or else the MDNA tour would have flopped.

Gaga has not achieved that legendary status yet, so sales numbers do matter for her. Her fans alone cannot fill up arenas and stadiums, so if the casual fans don't like her enough to buy her albums/singles, then for her, it'll translate into weak tours.

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn

I hope Gaga sees the light and is going to be realistic now.

She can repair her image with ARTPOP. Her new first album, in stores now.  :sweat:
