Bt1 5,213 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) That is three days away and is one of the rescheduled dates. You know these venues fill up the closer it gets to the show! I'm sure it will end up selling most of the tickets over the next three days! Or they will move people. Seriously, after I saw how the seats are dissapearing from maps in the last days, its pretty obvious that she doesnt actually sell that much in the day of the concert. She really needs a hit on radios. Too bad that they rescheduled 2 of the dates that were 99% sold out. Edited May 9, 2014 by Florin Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 same :) how did last jight sell in the end? Looked pretty full except for the back of GA The back of the GA never looks full, due to space requirements at the individual venues. It was at 98% sold out before they took they closed the sell of tickets on TM. We won't know if the remaining 2% of tickets were sold at the venue box office, or not, until we get the official boxscores. Either way, 98% is really good!

Gaga is selling very well, despite the fact that she doesn't have a current single on radios. Nope, people really do wait until the last day to buy tickets. Been watching this happen for years and years now in the US! Perhaps it is different where you live...IDK? People in the US will wait the day of the concert, after school or work, to buy tickets. Many wait to purchase them at the box office window. I've gone to enough concerts over the past few years to tell you that there is always a long line at the box office window to purchase tickets. I've purchased tickets the day of the concert WAY more than I have bought them ahead of time, and I usually end up getting better seats than if I bought them ahead of time. It's part of my "strategy" :) ...and believe me, I'm not the only person that knows to wait until the last day! ;) Also, I've been moved (upgraded) to better seats on multiple occasions at sold out shows.

Don't you get that dates are basically always reported as sell-outs, unless it's like 55% sold out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Don't you get that dates are basically always reported as sell-outs, unless it's like 55% sold out? Have you followed boxscores in the US for multiple artists and for their entire tour? If so, you would know that all dates for all artists (even the bigger names) are not reported as sold out.

DanielKCarey 266 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So I should bring my earplugs? lol If you want haha! It was okay for like the first five minutes, but then everyone in GA got very bored very fast. I remember a small group of people saying if 'the bass will ever drop.' The answer? No, not really.. artRAVE • Cheek To Cheek: LIVE! • Dive Bar Tour • Joanne World Tour • ENIGMA • The Chromatica Ball Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you would know that all dates for all artists (even the bigger names) are not reported as sold out. Gaga's boxscores in the US (and everywhere, worldwide too) even if the show wasn't full are always reported as sold-out, it was the case for the Born This Way Ball. The same for Beyoncé's Mrs Carter Show and other big shows as well. Edited May 9, 2014 by Rainbow Unicorn Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc 4,775 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Have you followed boxscores in the US for multiple artists and for their entire tour? If so, you would know that all dates for all artists (even the bigger names) are not reported as sold out. I've followed two big artists: Lady Gaga and Madonna. Worldwide. No need to do this for all artists, that's too much of a waste of time.
