Foivos 64 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I estimate the Greek date, if completely sold out, will gross 6M USD. It will not, trust me. At the official ticket seller they told me that about 7.000 tickets have been sold I estimate about 30.000 people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't some article say it has already sold 17k? Correction for the OP: 17000 of 70000 (Athens) is 24%, not 32% Edited May 12, 2014 by Luc Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GagaMyBlood95 9,915 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 It will not, trust me. At the official ticket seller they told me that about 7.000 tickets have been sold I estimate about 30.000 people. That was the first day... It sold more than 17k tickets until now... I think she can easly sell up to 45k until the show if not more.. Omg will tonight's show be at least 90% sold out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, there was much more hype for Roger Water's concert and it barely sold 30.000 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scheiBist 3 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 now I hope they put something in that contract to get reimbursed if rescheduling affects ticket sales negatively... From 95% sold to probably less than 65%. :millie: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Shakira sold like 40k tickets and Gaga is much bigger in Greece than her! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody knows Miley is coming here and I've seen so many people talking about it and nobody about Gaga's date, yet Miley's date here is selling worse.

Shakira is bigger than Gaga here but anyways, I hope she sells at least 60.000 because she CAN do it. Off topic. Golden standing has limited availability for weeks now. I am conviced they are addid tickets to make extra profit.. IF THESE MOTHER****ERS CONVERT GOLDEN STANDING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SMALL SPACE IN FRONT OF THE STAGE. TO GENERAL ADMISSION ...

From 95% sold to probably less than 65%. :millie: It wouldn't be in the venue's contract, but the tour would have insurance for cancellations of this nature. Probably what happens is that insurance will cover the difference in tickets sold. It would have looked better on the boxscores if the date didn't have to be cancelled, but Gaga, Interscope and Live Nation will still make the same amount of money as if this rescheduled show sold out. It sucks that the boxscores won't look like they would have, but things like this happen from time to time for every artist who tours extensively.

alejandroscunt 0 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Didnt they add them quite late? All the "omg gaga's coming to the uk" buzz is gone They better advertise the **** out if it imo. I think she'll struggle to sell them :cry: Yeah the initial UK dates sold out in under 5 minutes so I think these dates that were only announced today should have been announced 2 months ago. Also the Glasgow and Birmingham are both second dates for the artrave tour and these dates might be ok but she's going to two smaller cities, Sheffield and Newcastle and I'm not sure how these will do. I think a lot of people are pissed because people will have already booked their tickets and now gaga has announced new dates that are a lot closer to them. Though I'm sure gaga will be ok in selling these, there's no one else big touring the UK at that time of year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think this is the case when you are rescheduling your date. Philadelphia for example was all about their choice. And what is worse is that if they dont move people the arena will look bad.

And what is worse is than if they dont move people the arena will look bad. I wasn't referring to Philadelphia. My comment was completely about tonight's date, in Washington, D.C. Insurance is for cancellations due to any kind of factors that the artist has no control over- sickness, injury, weather, cancellations by venue, etc. These situations are one of the many reasons a huge tour, with a top-notch sponsor, has tour insurance. There is no doubt that Live Nation is the type of organization that has its i's dotted and its t's crossed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that Shakira is indeed bigger than Gaga but Gaga can sell more than Shakira since the promo of her here is huge and Gaga's concert is far more interesting even for the haters.
