Hiya. I think I asked on here before but don't think I got an answer. I was just wondering if anyone has bought any of the VIP packages from TicketWeb for any gigs before? I see that they still have some Heavy Metal Lover packages for Lady Gaga's Manchester gig available but of course they don't tell you where you'll be sitting. They just say Top Price Ticket. But that could still be anywhere in the arena, it doesn't mean it'll be anywhere near the stage! It could be halfway back or up high I would be tempted to buy one of these packages, as I'd really love to see Gaga live, but they're so damn expensive that I wouldn't want fork out so much money to have a poor view if the seats aren't close to the stage. I don't care about all the other extras that come with the package, it's the seat that's the only important thing for me, to have a decent close up view.

So has anyone here bought any packages like this before, where you have no idea where the seats are before you buy them? If so, do the tickets usually turn out to be really good and close up or do they really vary from gig to gig in that one minute they're the most close up you can get and another time they're way way back in the arena?!

Hope someone can help. Thanks.

Apparently ARTPOP is the name of the next album. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

I love it, bit of a twist on a major Art movement! I'm very interested to see how she goes with this album - and I hope that the imagery is a lot better than BTW! (Cover wise, the shots were pretty fantastic minus the bike)

Me too. It sounds like a sequel to The Fame.

My gut feeling is that the album title isn't ARTPOP.

She said she'd make the announcement in September and I'd presume that's for a reason. Hinting at it now would take away from the hype. Plus, if she were announcing the title early...surely she'd be more explicit?

However, its obviously important to the era. I think it could be a self invented genre that she will use to describe the new material. Would make sense with her 'I want to turn Warhol inside out' (I.e pop art).

I like "Artpop" as the album title tbh. Like Warhol's Popart but written the other way around .

However, didn't she say that she would reveal the album title in September? So, this could actually be the title of the new single.

Little fact for you, Pop Art wasn't actually Warhol's doing - he didn't even coin the name. It was started by the Independant Group in the UK in the early 50s, and I believe it was John Hale who came up with the term

I just don't like the words Art or Pop and when they're merged as one I hate it even more!

https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...31660572_n.jpg

she has it as a tat here ^^^ love the idea of Pop Art being a theme again...probably ode back to the Warholian music era of Velvet Underground & Nico by the way she looks there! Could be a real new stamp on it....could go either way really but i hope she surprises tbh.....here goes!

I'm sorry I've never bought a package, I don't think any of us on here have, so sorry but if they are top tickets I guarantee you they'll have a good view plus Manchester is small than London so you should have a better view of the stage regardless, the packages are good and I've known people to get Madonna ones in the past so I think you should try and get one

I doubt the album title will be Pop Art either, it just doesn't strike me at all, perhaps it could have been an alternative album name for The Fame but I think it does sound a bit simplistic, Popular Art does sound a bit better but still I'd rather she didn't go there

unless its a single? or a song title....seems strange to have it as a tattoo with no real meaning though :S.

But it may be a revert back to her Candy Warhol ideas in the beginning, and what with The Fame perfume and stuff it may simply be an ode to that more than anything else....but it does make me think of Warhols pastel colours and loud brightness ARTPOP so i think with this image change up hopefullly that may be more of a focus perhaps?? again we will have to see lol.

Well it's a month before the information starts to get released...I do have a really good feeling about this album and I've renewed my hope for a collaboration, perhaps Beyonce again? Azealia Banks? Bruce Springsteen? Lana? Cyndi? maybe even Madonna? Arrgghh I get too excited

That'll be the day haha! A day many doubt will come...but if Madonna collaborates with Minaj then surely she would with Gaga, I remain optimistic anyway

Oh I know that'd be amazing! Crossing You and I, National Anthem and Liquorice

They're just not my type of thing.

I like some Marina songs but in general she's a bit 'meh'.
