Her site has an exclusive bonus track and different artwork for the CD and vinyl.

Mayhem should put out an album titled Lady Gaga.

I really dig Mayhem. Perhaps she will win the Grammy for best country album.

That Abacadabra track is pretty cool, along with the music video, gives it that spiritual sequel to Bad Romance.

Really great album. Listened to it about 10 times already and it has got some fantastic songs.

Excellent album already. Excited to see where she ends up on tour.

It's very good. Taylor Swift podcaster Nathan Hubbard called the song How Bad Do U Want Me as "Taylor-meets-Yaz" and said it rocked, which of course peaked my interest. He was right.

The two performances on SNL a couple of weeks ago were awesome. Sick choreography in such cramp quarters.

I am obsessed with this album and the Abacadabra and Disease music videos.

Gaga announces the MAYHEM Tour. Tickets on sale next week. It's an all-arena tour.

I'm glad I checked because tickets are on sale now, I got section 206 section R which are listed as amazing view by previous purchases, high up in the back. First time seeing her in person and I've followed her for decades.

No. They are actually not. Artist Pre-Sale sign up is active now on Ticketmaster.

So what did I buy

I'm guessing the usual ticket sites have a reserved number of tickets bought?

Did you get them on the secondary market?

Stubhub. I've never had an issue with tickets before through them. So it's prob "friends and family" selling their tickets?

Yeah. Definitely not the way I would have gone, you certainly overpaid, but I'm sure they are legitimate tickets.

$335, not too bad I think.

For how many tickets?

One I seldom buy tickets so I think 8njust paid a I'm new to this tax. I'll see when it opens how much it would have been.

For those seats? Maybe half that, maybe less.
You should have believed me when I said tickets go on sale next week. I am decidedly NOT new to this!

Surprised you never saw Gaga at her Park/Dolby Theater residency. She had a lot of shows. I saw the Pop show. My mom went to Jazz & Piano.

It's a speculative ticket. Someone thinks they will have it but don't actually have it yet. It happens all the time. What's the delivery date? You can always sign up for the artist presale and see what you can land. Not sure how you would unload the Stubhub ticket until transfers are allowed. I wouldn't list a ticket I don't have in hand and you won't have it until it's transferred to you. Also don't know if this will be Fan2Fan (which I suspect). That delays the transfer because the barcodes aren't generated until a few days before the shows.

My wife and I would like to see her again, but she's not coming closer than Chicago and I am already traveling for 2 other events in a similar timeframe. Plus she will be in Chicago on a Monday and a Wednesday. I think that we're out this time. We last saw her in Detroit on the Joanne tour and it was great.

How can you think you will have seats in Section 206, Row R without having them yet?

Fake it until you make it.

Some could be from a promoter or a seat licensee. Some could be from a seller trying to arbitrage it and pick it later. The ticketing game has always had a shady side to it. Now it’s getting to be shady AF. Spec tickets, bots, promoters tickets going straight to third parties, etc.
