Tour Schedule & Sold Out Shows (artRave) - $83M tour gross / 74 shows

This is a decision made by Live Nation. Bobby doesn't have the power to put something like this in motion.

I know, but he has the power to get her on X Factor, Sunrise or get posters everywhere in Australia.

Australia is lucky they are getting the shows they are getting. I'm happy that her fans there are getting the chance to see her this tour. They should take full advantage of this opportunity, because you never know what will happen next era. She might just spend more time in the countries that support her music and are interested in attending her shows.

Australia is not a market that can be missed. It's an anglophone country with high album and single sales where people earn an incredibly high amount of money and almost everybody lives in a 5-6 big cities with enough talkshows and TV shows as promo opportunity. Perfect.

Had she promoted Applause or Yoü and I there, this leg would've looked quite a lot differently.

 

 

But I get that from a business perspective, it's useless because they already got their money.

All they had to do was release Gypsy and do some promo in Australia for it

I STILL don't understand the decision to not release Gypsy as a single:

1. Keep fans satisfied

2. Extra ticket sales

3. Extra album sales

4. Keep the era alive for the tour

It was literally the perfect opportunity in every perspective tbh :cry:

We need to get over Australia for this era, there was no promo and this is the result.. 

 

We should be happy Gaga has a name that's good enoough to sell nicely a couple of dates there!

[Jjang 2,262]

So far Gaga only sold 15,000 tickets in Israel due the messy situation.

"lucky"? Why "lucky"? Australia has supported Gaga since the start of her career. I'm not sure why they decided to add second shows in Syd and Melb, but otherwise, I think what you are saying is not exactly accurate. I mean ARTPOP did not "slay" in any country tbh. There was zero promo here, and putting a couple of posters on a tram or a bus the week before your show starts doesn't help much. She hasn't been to Australia in over 2 years. No interviews, no nothing. Since she's done so well here in the past, yes it's disappointing that the ticket sales are not very good this time, but saying that Australia doesn't support her in general is not correct, otherwise she wouldn't have had success here in the past.

Oh the Korean date was just a festival..

[Rainbow Unicorn 82]

Oh the Korean date was just a festival..

 

Yes, but the attendance wasn't that big so, it's not a real problem  :) 

[VforVendetta 2,024]

ΜΕSS! I'm pretty sure there are more tickets sold on that date. It can't be still at 45%

That was more than a month ago...

[ViviLittleM 3]

Again, Hoping for boxscores tomorrow

[GagaMyBlood95 9,915]

Again, Hoping for boxscores tomorrow

We all are

[Luc 4,775]

Not that big? but the stadium has a capacity of 70k?

[Rainbow Unicorn 82]

Yes, but with all the seats + GA.

AIA Real Life: NOW Festival only used half of the floor. Only GA tickets were available for the festival.

 

 

There were around 20k people for Gaga's concert.  :)
