News Article: Lady Gaga arrasa con su concierto en Madrid

Lady Gaga performing in Madrid


This article was found on the Vanguardia website filed under the culture section.  Lady Gaga is ending her tour through Europe, but the article describes how it was tainted by a group who forged tickets.  The forged tickets were sold to many people, and as a result over a thousand people were not able to get into the concert.

This was a major problem, as there were many concert-goers but not enough security to handle all of the people.  At times, the crowd surged up and the promoters were very worried something bad would happen with so many people out of control.  Still, the show got a positive review from fans thanks to dazzling effects and great theatrics.  It was said that the Sports Palace bowed down to Lady Gaga, and hailed her as the next Madonna, which is saying a lot because she has not been around long at all.

Tickets to the show had been sold out for several months, especially after she played for a sold out crowd in Barcelona at Palau Sant Jordi and impressed many people in the crowd.  Fans agreed that they got their moneys worth.  The tour has already been through France, Poland, Portugal and Belgium, selling out stages far in advance.  The last two legs of the tour are through London and Paris, with a short break before resuming in February.
