Jane Stevenson from Toronto Sun gave the konser four out of five stars and berkata that "Lady Gaga came across as a confident, colourful, and campy performer. ... Gaga's success was evident with slick-looking videos, lights, elaborate costumes, dancers, and yes, a band, even if her stage was sometimes left dark as she left to make numerous changes."
T'Cha Dunlevy for The Gazette noted that the performance was lacking ("The elements are there but they haven't all been brought together"), adding that the tampil never reached its peak until the end, when Gaga performed the "real rendition" of "Poker Face" and "Bad Romance." "Better late than never," Dunlevy concluded.
Aedan Helmer from Jam! magazine berkata that "At first blush, it might seem the real driving force behind Gaga's meteoric rise to fame is her hand-picked cadre of costume and set designers – dubbed Haus of Gaga – who seemingly know no bounds when it comes to pushing the envelope of haute couture and the theatre of the absurd. [...] But what really sets Gaga apart from the middling masses of lip-synching Britney clones and Idol wannabes is her pure, unadulterated musical talent. [...] The Lady can sing."
Theatre critic Kelly Nestruck, while menulis for The Guardian berkata "While The Monster Ball has nothing on the great operas atau the golden age of musical theatre, Lady Gaga's "electro-pop opera" is at least twice as entertaining and infinitely fresher than any stage musical written over the last decade."
Lauren Carter from Boston Herald praised the tampil saying "[Gaga] only has two albums under her sabuk (maybe closer to one-and-a-half) but who cares? Every song feels like a hit, and Gaga-as-star is already taking on Madonna-like proportions. [...] After [the show] at the Wang Theater, fan could justifiably walk away thinking Lady Gaga is crazy, brilliant atau both."
Jeremy Adams from Rolling Stone reviewed the performance at Wang Center in Boston and berkata that "Throughout the evening, Gaga [..] aimed for a kind of pop theatricality that might potentially cement her burgeoning status as performance artist."
Sam Adams from The Philadelphia Inquirer felt that "Gaga seemed isolated on stage, and oddly tentative, as if not quite ready to assume stardom as her right rather than a privilege contingent on each passing instant... Her two-hour set was full of dead spots and long breaks for costume and scenery changes that sapped the show's momentum and disrupted its groove."[23] Chris Johnson from Daily Mail complimented the costumes worn in the tour.[18] Aidin Vaziri of San Francisco Chronicle berkata that "During her 90-minute performance - not so much a live konser as a meticulously choreographed spectacle - Lady Gaga also evoked Kanye West with the futuristic set, Britney Spears in her heavy-lidded stage movements, Courtney cinta with her interminable between-song monologues highlighted oleh four-letter squelches and - who else? - madonna for, oh, just about everything else."
Jim Harrington from San Jose Mercury News felt that the tampil would have been better technically if around thirty menit were lessened from it. However, he compared Gaga's vocal abilities and performance with that of madonna and complimented her "undeniable bintang power and pure attitude. She doesn't concern herself with what anda think of her R-rated maneuvers, atau basically anything else, and she'll tell anda that straight to your face." James Montogomery from mtv reviewed the konser at San Diego and berkata that "[Gaga] powered through and turned the San Diego Sports Arena into a raucous, delightfully raw discotheque."
Joe Brown from Las Vegas Sun berkata that "Lady Gaga out-Cher-ed Cher, made Cirque du Soleil and Britney's 'Circus tour' look like county fair carnivals, and made New Year's Eve in Las Vegas anticlimactic.[19] Ann Powers from Los Angeles Times komentar that the tour was "an invigoratingly ambitious show, executed with vigor oleh its bintang and her expressive dancers."

I want your whisky mouth
All over my blonde south
Red wine and cheap perfume
And a filthy shout
Tonight bring all your friends
Because a group does it better
Why river with a pair
Let’s have a full house and leather
Ooh-ooh-ooh-who-who
Who-who-who ooh-who-who
Who who
Heavy Metal Lover
Ooh-ooh-ooh-who-who
Who-who-who ooh-who-who

Heavy Metal Lover
Dirty pony I can’t wait to hose anda down
You’ve got to earn your leather in this part of town
Dirty pearls and a patch for all the Rivington Rebels
Let’s raise hell in the streets drink bir and get into trouble
I could be your girl girl girl girl girl girl
But would anda cinta me if I ruled the world world world
Oooooo
Heavy Metal Lover
Whip me slap me, drunk funk
New York clubbers, bump drunk
Budlite, liquors, bar slam
Wash the night, with St. J-ameson
Like a baptism
Heavy metal pasangan play
Because we were born this way
All over my blonde south
Red wine and cheap perfume
And a filthy shout
Tonight bring all your friends
Because a group does it better
Why river with a pair
Let’s have a full house and leather
