Re-Release is Wrong?

On a German tv show, she announced that she was releasing it as her 2nd album. Not a re-release, however she has since confirmed that the she will be renaming her first album The Fame: Monster, and that it will just be an attachment to her old album. Those who have already purchased The Fame album can buy all of the songs from the Monster section of the album on itunes, instead of having to buy the entire album again.

Vienna

The biggest Austrian radio station (Ö3) announced a concert of Lady Gaga in the "Wiener Stadthalle" on November 11th. Link: http://oe3.orf.at/aktuell/stories/405810/ Thanks!

2010 NY, Toronto, Cleveland

It has not been posted yet that her New York, Toronto, Cleveland and St. Louis shows were sold out 100% even when it has been said numerous timed by herself and their local newspapers that those shows were sold out. Since I do not have the power to change it I would appreciate if somebody who does have to power do so ASAP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.92.55.173 (talk) 15:17, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You need to provide a Boxscore information. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:32, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Where is this information ussually placed...I assumed that high end newspapers were good enough sources.
If you'd like I could post links to the newspaper articles.
I might as well do it so here they are (Toronto) http://www.680news.com/entertainment/article/76370---duchess-of-pop-lady-gaga-invades-toronto (Cleveland) http://www.clevelandleader.com/node/14199 (New York City) http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/music/madison_sq_ga_garden_oSO7B7CgmalhPUEfTrf94I —Preceding unsigned comment added by Blackjacks101 (talk • contribs) 14:09, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I Think That You Need TO Add A Synopsis Of The Revamped Show. I Know It Will Be Longer But, It's Important Because That Is What Is Currently Going On Here It Is With Credit

ACT 1: CITY: The concert begins with the Jumping Film, which contains images of Gaga in the "Paparazzi" dress and of her smoking a cigarette as a club remix of "Dance in the Dark" plays. Gaga's silhouette appears on the curtain, surrounded by violet light ("Dance in the Dark") while her friends Posh, Peppah, and Bang Bang prepare to go to the Monster Ball. After "Dance in the Dark", Gaga's car breaks down, causing Posh, Peppah, and Bang Bang to become frantic before Gaga tells them that she will take them there. ("Glitter and Grease") When she checks under the hood of the car, Gaga reveals a keyboard and then begins to play the opening notes of "Just Dance". Gaga then goes into "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich". After the song, Posh asks Gaga what the Monster Ball exactly is, to which she responds: "The Monster Ball will set you free!" She says that the best thing is that it's a place for her fans to go. Where the freaks ("normal people") are outside and she locked the door. Gaga then goes into the song "Vanity". Gaga disappears and then returns in a red cape with extended shoulders with her instruent EMMA and performs "The Fame"

PUKE FILM

ACT 2: SUBWAY: On a subway, Gaga and her gang ride a subway to try to get to the Monster Ball, but, unfortunately, it breaks down, leaving Gaga and her friends stranded. ("LoveGame") Gaga tells the audience about her siuation, and asks them if she should asks her most loyal and intimet friends... Her gay boys. ("Boys Boys Boys") Gaga tells the audience that the thing she hates most is money and then goes into "Money Honey". Gaga then recalls when she was in jail and her friend Beyonce bailed her out. ("Telephone") A piano is then brought in and Gaga goes into the song "Brown Eyes", after whichc she performs "Speechless". During this song, she tells her audience the Monster Claw Story, her life as a teen in New York, and how she became who she is today. Gaga and her friends then continue down the Glitter Way, and soon they run into an angel, who plays a tune that summons a twister, taking them closer to the Monster Ball, but landing them in a strange place that they don't know. (TWISTER FILM)

ACT 3: FOREST: Gaga sings "So Happy I Could Die". Then the ANTLER FILM is played, in which Gaga says that she and her friends have been dropped off in the deepest, darkest part of Central Park. She then returns and sings "Monster". Gaga then states that the thing she hates more than monet is the truth. ("Teeth") Gaga and her friends then find the Internal Fountain, the only fountain that bleeds for you. Gaga then goes into "Alejandro" while she jumps into the fountain and sings as blood pours over her. Another film is then played, the LIL MONSTER FILM. (See Manifesto of Little Monsters.) Gaga then returns and sings "Poker Face".

APOCALYPTIC FILM

ACT 4: MONSTER BALL: Gaga and her friends find themselves in a dark place, and after some dialogue, Gaga's friends run off, leaving her alone to deal with the Fame Monster, a giant angler fish. ("Paparazzi") Gaga eventually kills the Fame Monster by using her Pyro-Bra and Pyro-Underwear. She then leaves for the Monster Ball. At the Monster Ball, Gaga asks her fans if it's the best party on the planet, and tells them to dance. ("Bad Romance")

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made.
I'm sorry, but a wiki website without editorial oversight is not considered a reliable source.

Semi Precious Weapons

Hey itss been confirmed that SPW is going to continue being Lady Gaga's opening act for the Monster Ball Tour all the way to the last show. Billboard magazine confirmed it themselves heres the link http://www.billboard.com/news?tag=nav#/features/lady-gaga-s-monster-ball-to-gross-nearly-1004109755.story. --Blackjacks101 (talk) 16:30, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Opening Paragraph

Personally I thought that the first paragraph did not properly inform who was the opening acts of the tour.
As said here
The Monster Ball Tour is the second worldwide concert tour by American recording artist Lady Gaga in support of her second studio album, The Fame Monster. The tour was officially announced on October 15, 2009, after her joint concert tour with rapper Kanye West, titled Fame Kills, was suddenly canceled. Described by Gaga as "the first-ever 'pop electro opera'", The Monster Ball began four days after the release of The Fame Monster. Rapper Kid Cudi and singer Jason Derülo were confirmed as the supporting act for the first North American leg of the tour, while the band Alphabeat will support the UK stop of the tour. Virgin Mobile USA and Virgin Mobile Canada are the official sponsors of the American and Canadian legs of the tour, respectively. Gaga's production team Haus of Gaga designed the poster and the stage of the concert, including a giant contraption called "The Orbit".
I believe that it would be better by saying

It was confirmed that Semi Precious Weapons would be the opening act for the entire length of the tour while rapper Kid Cudi and singer Jason Derulo would appear only on the first North American leg. Additionally, the band Alphabeat was confirmed as the opening act for her first UK leg, along with the Far East Movement who would open the Asian leg of the tour. Virgin Mobile USA and Virgin Mobile Canada are the official sponsors of the American and Canadian legs of the tour, respectively.
