Important Info.[edit]

Here is a really good source about the tour from Gaga herself. http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/lady-gaga-ready-to-go-for-headlining-tour-1003946983.story... and Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 06:21, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More sources- http://perezhilton.com/2009-03-04-lady-gaga-is-ready-to-take-over-the-world http://www.livedaily.com/news/15775.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by GagaLoveGame (talkcontribs) 04:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The first billboard source is enough. I already added it. NEVER use perezhilton. The livedaily info doesnot add much than the billboard info. --Legolas (talktome) 04:54, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok but Perez can be reliable at times, ok but you could take the fact that there three versions of the show and the new stage fashion. That could be info.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 04:42, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Already did. --Legolas (talktome) 04:55, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It has been confirmed that she is going to preform in Zagreb, Croatia, Tickets are out for sale on Monday. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.138.66.186 (talk) 11:03, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Removal of Ocenia section[edit]

This is article id for the fame ball tour, not a tour with PCD who are the headliners. I live in NZ and if Gaga was the headliner I would have bought tickets before it even came out to the public. Also there are no sources for Oceania.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 11:40, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Remove it if you are sure of this, but be careful of any edit error. --Legolas (talktome) 11:59, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What is an edit erroe, please elobrate, I did not remove it , someelse did. I am 150 percent sure. I would have got tickets by now. Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 23:00, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tour Dates[edit]

The tour dates are an important part of an article about a tour and is not a vilation of WP:NOTDIR. They should be kept. Thoughts? --Legolas (talktome) 14:11, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, because they violate WP:NOTDIR --Smanu (talk) 16:27, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTDIR doesnot include tour dates. They have always been a part of articles about tours. On what basis are you indicating NOTDIR could you please clarify? --Legolas (talktome) 03:30, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it is important Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 08:54, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know that Tour dates are important, but they violate WP:NOTDIR, so we shouldn't add them on the article --Smanu (talk) 14:54, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I'm asking you continuously that why are you referring to WP:NOTDIR? They donot include tour dates. Don't you understand simple English? *Shrug* --Legolas (talktome) 06:44, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"A complete exposition of all possible details. Rather, an article is a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject.[4] Treat verifiable and sourced statements with appropriate weight." --Smanu (talk) 13:17, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That nowhere proves your point. You know very well that a surplus of information will come once the tour starts on March 12. you have a baseless argument here. --Legolas (talktome) 13:24, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I know that, but tour dates ARE NOT necessary as they violate WP:NOTDIR --Smanu (talk) 13:33, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ohh so you know that your logic is flawed, you know very well that tour dates are not a part of WP:NOTDIR, but still would present your absurd theory. Great! --Legolas (talktome) 03:11, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No, I know that the article will expanse now that the tour is started, but I know that tour dates aren't necessary as they violate WP:NOTDIR. And please, don't talk with that tone of superiority --Smanu (talk) 13:16, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You are getting on my nerve . I'm continuously telling you that tour dates are not a part of WP:NOTDIR unless you are pointing at your own NOTDIR. Do I need to spell it out to you? --Legolas (talktome) 13:22, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You're very aggressive with me now! WP:NOTDIR says that tour dates shouldn't be on articles --Smanu (talk) 13:27, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I am. And I cannot keep good faith in you anymore when you are definitely lying. Just show me where WP:NOTDIR mentions tour dates. I have a feeling it is because of your anti-feeling towards this article from the beginning that you are making baseless points. Regarding tour dates you cannot provide a valid reason. You have to first edit 1000000s of other touring articles before you even come here. --Legolas (talktome) 13:35, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've already show you: "A complete exposition of all possible details. Rather, an article is a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject.[4] Treat verifiable and sourced statements with appropriate weight." This does not refer explicitly to the tour dates, but it's involved.--Smanu (talk) 13:53, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thats your thought. If you want an opinion, go to the WP:NOT project page and get your clarifications, or get tour dates included in NOTDIR. Untill then this discussion is completely baseless. Don't create a WP:OWN situation. I would also advice you to read WP:NOTCRYSTAL.--Legolas (talktome) 14:02, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, 100%Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 07:08, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've just asked HERE and an user aswered me that only significantly notable tours should have tour dates. The Fame Ball tour isn't, so I delete them --Smanu (talk) 13:49, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
How dare you do that? Who is this user that you are basing your comments on? And who the hell told you that this tour isn't notable? I repeat don't dare to delete them, if you think this is a warning, yes it is, because normal English seems to evade your mind while taking judgment. I've had enough of your crap. --Legolas (talktome) 05:23, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
WOW someones angry, just jokes thanks for the help on this artilce, to many vandals, vandal fighter to the rescue in which we stop the evil Smanu. Just jokes again. LOL Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 06:13, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Setlist[edit]

Disscss here, this can be deleted straight away, leave it for about 2 days so people can find soures. Please note-I did not put the setlist up.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 06:17, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh god Love, nobody's blaming you for the setlist. The set list is correct (I can tell, I was at yesterdays show). But I'm yet to find any reference for the setlist. If you want go ahead and delete them. --Legolas (talktome) 06:28, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

F*** no. I would never know that I know you want.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 12:15, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Receoption[edit]

http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/03/lady-gaga-live.html - source for reception and some pics. we need some for the article Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 02:07, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I will be uploading some pics in commons soon. FYI, the reception in teh article is without a source, it will be removed then. --Legolas (talktome) 10:55, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thats great I forgot the source.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 04:08, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
We need a few more receptions and if possible a source (can be Gaga's website) where the tour crew details will be. --Legolas (talktome) 05:34, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, I will try to look for some (try google news, thats ere I get the most recent sources).Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 04:54, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pics[edit]

How do we know that she is performing Paparazzi on the first pic or Money Honey in the last? I think that "Gaga perfoms...", "Gaga opens with..." shoul be removed from the pics and just add "Lady Gaga performing" or something else. --Smanu (talk) 18:45, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Description dude. Every article has it. --Legolas (talktome) 03:44, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Legalos was there thats how.Has Anybody Seen My Disco Stick? 04:33, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I happen to know for a fact that Lady Gaga WAS performing "Papparazzi" in the picture where she is wearing a silver bow on her short, black dress, because I saw the concert. I am certain that all of the pictures on the article have correct captions.Cinnamontl (talk) 04:39, 12 April 2009 (UTC)Cinnamontl, 9:39pm, 4/11/09[reply]

Future Love[edit]

Hey guys, give me your opinions and thoughts of this artwork of Future Love here Child Funk (talk) 07:28, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a forum. Please refrain frm adding such comments. --Legolas (talktome) 10:00, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it's a talk page to serve it's purpose for discussion regarding the encyclopedic content of the article, sigh... Child Funk (talk) 10:59, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly *rolls eyes*. --Legolas (talktome) 11:02, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Captions For the First Picture[edit]

The caption is incorrect as the picture is not of her performing. 76.112.25.158 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:32, 14 April 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Dates in Ireland[edit]

She will be performing in Cork on the 1st Of July http://www.ticketmaster.ie/event/1800427AD2E04896?artistid=988249&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=1 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.75.209 (talk) 11:37, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK it can be added. --Legolas (talk2me) 11:42, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Why should it be added, it doesnt say its the fame ball tour and I thought it was only in north america. I am Rorschach (talk) 23:59, 17 April 2009 (UTC). The Fame Ball Tour isnt exclusive to North America, there are advertisments everywhere on the internet for ticket bookings in Ireland and in Europe besides it needs to be mentioned that shes going to Europe it elavatates the tour from nationwide to a world concert tour[reply]

Opening act PCD[edit]

This is a wiki link but under tour it says PCD as an opening act of Gaga's shuld it be changed.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pussycat_dollsCloverfield Monsta (talk) 01:40, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Source itself is bad. Wikipedia itself fails WP:RS. --Legolas (talk2me) 10:10, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Australia and New Zealand[edit]

Hi there according to her site there are shows in NZ and AUS, if this is correct ( I'm no whiz on the subject) could someone add it. Thanks. 90.213.236.142 (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sold Out Shows[edit]

She has sold out more than one show.

She's sold out two shows at the Mazzazine, in Chicago, Seattle, and New York and I'm sure there's plenty more.

Euro-ocenia tour[edit]

This is incorrect it is an exclusive N.American tour. The Austrialian and new Zealand tours is with PCD. Also no sources provided that state it is the fame ball tour. Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 00:20, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Correct. Absolutely. --Legolas (talk2me) 07:58, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

UK Tour[edit]

I've added the UK dates twice now and they keep getting deleted, its been announced that "The Fame Ball Tour" is coming to the UK, so why delete it? Chris as I am Chris (talk) 18:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

you are providing a non-reliable source. Use Interscope records if you like or ladygaga.com but others are not allowed. --Legolas (talk2me) 03:49, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Could you tell me why they aren't reliable sources? The fact that people have tickets to these events you say aren't announced. Chris as I am Chris (talk) 11:48, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I Porposed this is question once. Well you would not believe a fansite that said Gaga was dead but you would if the BBC did. The Fame ball tour is nrth amrica only.Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 05:49, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

madonna and kanye west[edit]

They did attend and sources were provided. Then why were they taken off. Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 05:54, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know Clove. I myself added it. Some stupid user must have done it. I'll put it back ASAP. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:58, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Extended Tour[edit]

For some reason her European shows were removed. Also Lady Gaga has mad plans to add more shows in the fall. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.91.223.175 (talk) 03:42, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide reliable sources announcing her European leg. --Legolas (talk2me) 03:48, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request Move[edit]

See I am discussing LegAlos Legolas. I request a move to of the articles name to : The Fame Ball Tour ---> Fame Ball Tour (nowhere does it say the fame ball tour) - We are the crowd -- We're c-comin' out *Paparazzi* Lady Gaga 05:07, 22 June 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cloverfield Monsta (talkcontribs) [reply]

Everywhere it says "The Fame Ball tour" only. No need of a request and sarcasms don't lead you anywhere. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:10, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
well sorry, it seems the GA review has gotten through, huh. And I may request I does not really mattter what everyone else thinks, Gaga says Fame Ball tour therefore a change is neeeded. --R.I.P. Michael :( 07:58, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Nopes. Read references and then come back. Don't give a headache. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:10, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I second the motion to move the page. Alex (talk) 00:20, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
