Gaga for the Lady!

Although I wouldn't consider myself a true concert expert, I'd like to express my interest in the concert I recently attended. After purchasing tickets on the internet (www.stubhub.com), we were fortunate to get seats that overlooked the entire stage from the Platinum area (seats located in front of the private boxes) at a reduced price.

Now, I must admit, Lady Gaga attracts a certain audience, and they definitely came out to play. Costumes were donned in true Gaga fashion by a lot of people attending. Cigarette sunglasses, soda can curlers in the hair and every type of bra or breast covering ever invented were worn - all ages of both genders all trying to best any outrageous costume Gaga has every created. Did I mention this was all BEFORE the actual concert started?

The opening act left something to be desired (Semi Precious Weapons - unless you're into hard rock and a lot of profanity, I suggest passing on their album). As for the main act, Lady Gaga not only shone bright, but represented the absolute definition of entertainer. The songs were great, the stage was amazing and the energy in the building uncontainable. Not only was every person on their feet dancing for the whole concert but most were singing along while trying to memorize her fascinating costumes for future reference.

With the encore being "Bad Romance", the place was vibrating. Everyone sang, everyone danced and everyone enjoyed that moment as Lady Gaga entertained. Looking around the arena was awe-inspiring and spirit-lifting. With that, I highly recommend her concerts to anyone who may be thinking of venturing to her live shows.

Lady Gaga - you definitely won me over!
