It matters not that the Born This Way Ball is not close to an end because even so and statistically wise Lady Gaga's touring numbers indicate a masive rise to her touring rates. The "The Monster Ball Tour" grossed $227.4 millions from 201 reported shows and had a total of more than 2.5 millions audience , while her "Born This Way Ball' has so far grossed $168 million and drew more than 1.64 million fans . The following statistical analysis proves that not only did Gaga brought in massively increased percentages , but she accomplished that with less than half shows ( 201 shows compared to 85 reported - so far . ) .
Gaga by the numbers :
The Monster Ball :
AVG. GROSS : $1,113,343
AVG. ATTENDANCE : 12,437
The Born This Way Ball :
AVG.GROSS : $1,976,345
AVG.ATTENDANCE : 19,364
With these data given , it is shown that the AVERAGE GROSS of the Born This Way Ball enjoyed a 78% increase and its AVERAGE ATTENDANCE was up by 56% .
Put in a simple way Gaga managed to almost double her average gross and had a bulky uprise on the interest for her shows . With her being absent music-wise and with her tour resuming later in 2013 , it's safe to say that Lady Gaga as a 'product' or better say as a brand only enjoyed stellar success in the touring world doubling her force as a touring act along the way.
