Alijandro 9 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 wtf those numbers Same for Brisbane, so I mean if she were to cancel these shows she would probably cancel the whole leg. I doubt theyll resort to cancellation before they try and promote it though. I would expect to see some ads soon and hopefully G.U.Y. picks up on radio and the US leg brings buzz. but still :( this could be the last time she brings an arena show here unless something changes. Imagine if she had to do festival shows, I would die Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake 7,385 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 All it boils down to is lack of promo imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
8myh3art 10 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Here where they track ticket sales It makes me worried, praying their not legit tbh God that's awful! :/ I wish she'd promote more here, I just don't get it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if she had to do festival shows, I would die It worries me because pitbull and Kesha had similar ticket sales and they didn't cancel until very close to the shows. I won't start getting to worried until the US leg starts cause as you said they might pick up when the show gets more buzz Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth 450 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 If she were just to do a bit of promo here, even a few radio interviews would improve things seeing as I'm almost certain she's not going to be coming here before the tour starts (she was though, right? Until everything that happened at the end of last year/start of 2014?). I don't think I'd even be that bothered if they moved to a smaller venue (although the trolls on the internet would have a field day with that :roll:) I just want it to do well because otherwise she's not going to come back in the future :cry: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not surprising that they dont play her stuff that much, especially looking at Katy who did a promo tour for the album as well as for the tour (albeit she did look pretty exhausted both times from the rough schedules) The only other venue though is challenge stadium, and she wont fit her production in there/ nor will it probably cover staging costs. The only other option would be to downsize the version of the show that she brings out here which would suck :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope things pick up with the sales :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant it in the sense of it hasn't been re-done before the tour starts for promotional purposes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady 748 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Is there really like almost 0 promo and people not knowing about her show? It's just extremely weird IMO. She got amazing reviews for her last tour, it was extremely successful in AUS, it can't be that people already forgot about her shows being spectacular, so can it really be that people are not aware of her tour? I know that radio has not been supportive etc... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tour pretty much rests on the success of GUY right now Is the reason they aren't playing her on radio just because she hasn't promoted, payed them visit, called in...? Is this how it usually works in Australia? Cause I don't understand why would radio not play one of the most famous musicians, especially when it's Lady Gaga...

There has been no promo for the album and the tour, I've not seen a poster or banner advertising the tour. Katy has been successful with Prism in Australia because she has promoted and visited twice, performed on television and done radio/tv interviews.

Alijandro 9 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 But being honest though, even with promotion she wouldn't have KP type success because her music is verging off mainstream anyway. Not at all saying that this is a bad thing, but if she still wants to be able to sell and perform to the crowds of a pop star level, she does need to promote it as she is already fighting an up-hill battle. But if you remember 2011, the media will totally gag over her if she pays them attention, so hopefully if there is going to be an act II at some point, it can get off to a better start here.

AshlieghTaylor 0 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) the hot seat package is now sold out (I'm pretty sure that only recently happened) and they updated the venue map :) Edit: the B reserve alcohol free section is now at limited availability! we're slowly getting there!
