:drama:

[holden]

back again?... he hasn't even dropped another album... if he would play more of his first 2 albums, instead of his last one, i would probably buy tickets

[JAYMEZ]

:thumbsdow

[LadyLuck]

With Lady Gaga.

Death to both of them.

They did a perfect job in matching 2 of the most annoying artists in the industry together.

ugh

[BrknFngrs]

Not a chance, what a tool.

[bubbley]

o hell ya boi!!!

[GOnSHO]

no way, such a db

[scat19]

I wonder if he drives a BMW?

[jjmac]

yes

:clap:

[scat19]

Haha that's funny. He loves LV. I wonder if they cringe each time he says it.

Still a douche.

[almerick]

Douche: yes, Tickets: no.

[Quiet10]

Yes, and when I'm at his concert I will run up on the stage and stop him mid song, and tell everybody in the dome that Taylor Swift has the best album of all time!! :dunno:

[DragZilla]

I'd definitely go. He's supposed to have a new album out this fall if I remember correctly... he'll be rapping again

[FLARE]

Yes, I will be going..........

Controversy = $ in his pocket, thus the music awards = $ for Kanye

[Jeremiah]

Fuck. The asshole is coming the day I leave for Vegas. Oh well. I don't wanna hear 808s and Heartbreaks or lady gaga. If he was bringing cudi this would make me much more mad

I don't really know about that.....I think he ruined his sales for a while with his stunt.

[bubbley]

Did you guys forget he has had like 10 of these stunts on award shows in the past and not to mention "george bush does not like black people" :rofl:

Cant stop Kanye!

[signature7]

The first time around I wish I had tickets because I had just discovered Lupe Fiasco around that time-but will not want the second go around even if he didn't mess up Swift's speech.

[dino_martini]

interesting...very interesting

[InLoveWitRSX]

hell yeah im gettin tix.

[Tik-Tok]

His stunt won't decrease ticket sales at all.

In case you haven't noticed, at least 60% of concerts these days are bored teenagers, spending their parents money, while having no interest in the bands/musicians themselves.

The other 40% will be his actual fans who are douche-bags, just like him, and applaud his douche-baggery.

[ToyVitzRS]

I'd definitely want to see the 808's album brought to life...

Call him whatever you want but when it comes to art & entertainment this dude delivers.

I doubt it. They let him design an LV shoe. They looked like red Adidas high tops, however they cost something like $2300US. I don't think they sold too well. :nut:

[Disoblige]

I don't know.. His last show had great openers and this time there's LADY GAGA? Ugh.. I honestly don't know..

[JordanEG6]

Kanye's music as of late takes a major L. 808's & Heartbreak was mediocre at best, and his last tour stop was only good because N.E.R.D. and Lupe owned the set. Probably won't go considering he did the shit I wanted to hear live already. I don't want to hear shitty autotune at 130 dB.

None the less I might buy tickets and run up on the stage and say "I'ma letyou finish...but Jay-Z had one of the best perfomances of all time!".

[IntegraG2]

Efff yea i will buy tix still......but i rather see Cudi....

Peter Chao said it best....no publicity is bad publicity. LOL at Taylor Swift poor girl.....

[rizfarmer]

Fuck that tool. There is nothing that pisses me off more than a truly ignorant fool; and Kanye is the top nig in that department. I don't really give a shit about Taylor Swift, but I'll never support him again for doing that - he completely assholed her, and embarrassed not only himself but Beyonce as well.


Now I'm mad I went to his first concert here.:whipped:

[van]

are there any presale codes?

Actually the shoes were/are $870-$1140 depending on which model you wanted... and they are basically sold out worldwide unless you are a size 7...

Kanye will forever be in the industry of fucking with people haha

I'd argue this is higher, like x929's 1 weekend away or whatever, be caller 9 at a Our Lady Peace song and they have to keep saying stuff like "Nirvana is not Our Lady Peace..." honestly if fans are getting Nirvana and other various 90's bands mixed up with our lady peace, chances are they shouldnt even be allowed to go, but thats just me

[Shunsui]

Fuck yes, last concert was fucking awesome. Lady Gaga is only opening though, I hope it's short.

[EK 2.0]

I have to go....

Throw up tha ROC!!

[Disoblige]

http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/09/11/fame-kills-starring-kanye-west-and-lady-gaga-tour-first-dates/

"As Rolling Stone previously reported, while West has a couple more albums and Grammys over Gaga, the rapper insists both artists will have equal billing on “Fame Kills.” “She’s talented and so incredible that she’s not an opening act. We’re doing it together, with no opening act,” Kanye said. West also recently proclaimed Rolling Stone’s Hot Diva as the next Madonna, and sampled Gaga’s “Pokerface” for Kid Cudi’s “Make Her Say.” Gaga returned the favor by covering West’s “Heartless” in concert in Toronto."

Hmm? Dates don't seem to match the concern confirmed for in Calgary. But after looking up Calgary's show, it's also called Fame Kills as well. Sooo.. :dunno:

[SpoonEK9@STRD]

im going, kanye's hype

[futurecivic]

going for sure

[Shunsui]

I really don't like Gaga...

[LadyLuck]

Just announced this morning on Vibe, ticket sales have been postponed until further notice. They were supposed to go on sale this friday.

Kanye mentioned on Jay Leno that he needs to take some time off to figure his shit out...no word yet whether or not the show will be postponed too.

[dino_martini]

Ugh I really hope this is not postponed.

[beecue]

it's back on .. http://www.hitfix.com/articles/2009-9-18-lady-gaga-kanye-west-set-45-pre-sale-fee-for-tour .. tickets go on sale on Friday unless you want to pay an extra $45 .. not sure if I want to go .. don't really want to see lady gaga

[dino_martini]

[chrispl]

ahahha :rofl:

[rumeo]

Looking for presale codes guys. All I got is "paranoid" for Thursday. What else you guys got?

[LadyLuck]

"heartless" for Thursday as well from Vibe

[rumeo]

any more presale codes?

[Disoblige]

I bet there will be heightened security (not just in Calgary), so people actually don't go up and interupt him on his tour :rofl:

[smokedog]

Do u think kid cudi will join him on his tour???

[DRKM]

I am kinda excited to see lady gaga. She is sickly talented. Check out this video and tell me other wise.

I fail at embedding..

no from what i've heard, there are no openers. just kanye and lady gaga sharing the stage

[djayz]

anybody get anything good?

i got floors a couple of times but theres no chairs so thats no fun, other then that all i could find was corner section seats in the upper bowl with a minimum of 9 rows up, worst seats imo.

[beecue]

only getting 200s :(

[djayz]

Yup only 200's on the corners, got some in sec 226 but the row is like 17 which is half way up. Sec 226 is probably the best seat in the house if you can get a row 1 - 5.

[ApexDrift]

ticketmaster crashed?

[dkmlam]

Got some corner 209's R22

[ringer]

I think i'll go probably be one hell of a show

[flipstah]

227 R14!

Not bad I think :thumbsup:

Guess I'm the 40% crowd. Continue on, King of DB's! Continue on.

i got 2 tickets section 208, row 7, seats 22-21. never been to any concert before or attended any events in the saddledome, so just wondering these seats any good?

[toyboy88]

Rogers customer's can get 'better' tickets through the urmusic prebuy right now...

Go through urmusic.ca, tried on there and got 2nd level row 2,4, and 7's...lower level i got row 9 and 11s.

(Didn't buy all of them, just as I was browsing what came up.) :)

Your deal is probably gone by now...

I checked and they're basically corners. 111, 208...:thumbsdow

[dino_martini]

I guess I will just get scalped. Oh well, I hate Ticketmaster anyway.

[flipstah]

Who wants to wear Taylor Swift shirts to Kanye? :rofl:

[FLARE]

Boo I had to go with section 112 row 12 or something... lower bowl corner, however I dont think itll be a problem considering the stage that they are using.

Guess time will tell...

Why aren't the lower bowl middle sections coming up for anybody?

[DragZilla]

Those were available for the VIP Presale if you wernt interested in the VIP section on the floor

[ekguy]

somebody go interrupt him at his concert hahaha.

[flipstah]

My god, VIP seating for $500/head? Is that even worth it?

NOO WAII! :cry:

Does that mean if we bought it online, we can get refunds at any Ticketmaster outlet or just online as well?

[SScott]

This is good news for me... Maybe he'll reschedule without Gaga the Hermy

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1622849/20091001/west_kanye.jhtml

Refunds online or by phone will be refunded automatically

[know1edge]

.

[Disoblige]

I honestly expected this to occur, on the basis of the whole Kanye fiasco. May that be the reason for cancellation or not, glad I didn't buy tickets so soon.

[FLARE]

BRUUUUTALLLLLL

Does this mean we lose the ticketmaster fee's?

FUUUUU-

Hopefully not.

[flipstah]

Update:

Whoever bought it in TicketMaster online, did you get refunded yet?

I for one, did not. :thumbsdow :thumbsdow

Called TicketMaster and their customer service line is BRUTAL; long holding times and I think their reps are semi-retarded. And that's an insult to semi-retards everywhere.

[oldschoolcivic]

wat

Nothing refunded on my end either. Ticketmaster is brutal in every way.

Anybody know if we get all their retarded fees refunded as well?

[Power_Of_Rotary]

if the tickets were free i may go to see how much of a douche he still is and how shitty his singing is (not saying his songs sucks, which they do, but if he were to sing an actual song with no editing and no muzic, my ears would start to bleed)

Everything but the ticket fees itself. Eg. if you paid the 14.00 to get them to ship you the tickets, that will not be refunded, or the 2.50 to print the tickets. Their logic is, though the concert is cancelled, they still provided you with your tickets. Lucky for me I chose to pick up at one of their locations for free!

I opted mine for retail pickup as well but what about those 'convenience fees'?

[rumeo]

Those will be refunded
