LADY GAGA CONCERT
Weekend Statistics:
Dirty Martinis: 2
Cosmopolitans: 1
Beer: 2
Champagne: 1
As everyone knows, I am a HUGE, HUGE Lady GaGa fan, and I was so happy that I was able to get tickets to her show. I went downtown to my hotel at the Hyatt Regency and waited for Rowsey to get there. Rowsey used to work with me at my old job, and we were SUPER excited! Our rented room wasn't that great since the toilet wasn't flushing (eww) and there was no fan in there, but whatever, it was $90! I'll take that deal! We decided we would go eat at the bar and then get ready for the show. I had made two sets of Solar Shield GaGa Fame glasses for both of us. While we were at the bar, we got started on some cosmos and then moved up to a dirty martini. We got pretty buttered up, (at least I did) and then these 3 people came up to us and asked if we were going to GaGa too. It was a set of twins (boys) and a girl. They ended up buying some champagne and shared with us. That was super nice. At that point, I knew I had to stop drinking or else I would be peeing all through the concert. That would be no good. Those twins were wearing so much cologne, I was sure GaGa would smell them from miles away. Eeek.
We went back to our room and started getting ready. Rowsey is a master at make-up, and she made me hooker ready! Woo! I also straightened my hair for an extra oompf! We took a cab and went straight to Conseco Fieldhouse for the show!
There were a bunch of people waiting outside Conseco taking pictures. I got a lot of positive reviews of my glasses, which was cool. There were some definite interesting concoctions. Dudes wearing platform boots and garter belts. Chicks wearing skin-tight pantyhose and lycra. Yes, some girl even wore the Caution tape and ONLY the caution tape. Wha! Girl, all you need is a stray breeze and it is over! Ha! I'm glad I was comfortable. The shoes started off great but of course as the show went on, my feet were KILLING ME. We were up high in section 207, but luckily our seats were in Row 4 and on the aisle! I thought our seats were great compared to other people I've talked to.
I missed the opening act of Semi-Precious Weapons (which was a smart choice) and GaGa took the stage at precisely 9 PM. The show started off with an awesome light show and GAGA! I have come to conclude that I was MEANT to love Lady GaGa. What do you mean? First of all, she's talented and she specializes in crazy dance, pop music which is my favorite. Then I realized that she must have watched the same television shows as me as a kid. Sure, everyone says she is a crazy, unique dresser, but look people, Jem and the Holograms was probably her favorite show. The clothes in that show is pretty crazy, then add in some face make-up. Yup. Then as I watched her sing, dance, and writhe on the ground, "shit, she looks like a 90's X-men character."
Lady GaGa as Star-Bright Disco Drag Queen inspired by Spiral perhaps? (Minus the 6 arms and Mojoverse).

Lady GaGa performing at the 2010 Grammy Awards inspired by Retro Dazzler. I mean, seriously, eye patchy things included. She just needed to emit lasers from her eyes.

And my personal favorite: Lady GaGa does the JUGGERNAUT!
Can't you see Lady GaGa screaming, "I'm the Juggernaut, Bitch!" Lol. Seriously, what the fuck is with this outfit? All you can do is laugh.
So yes, the show was phenomenal. My favorite part had to be when I saw this vision of a man dancing by himself to Boys Boys Boys. OF COURSE I HAD TO DANCE WITH HIM! So there I was, grinding next to his black tank top wearing gay Adonis. He was adorable! He knew that the after-party was at Talbot Street (a popular gay dance club where there are lots of drag shows) and after a dance off to Telephone, we parted. Good bye, Gay Boyfriend!!
At the end of the night, GaGa ended with Bad Romance, and we were off to the hotel. I was exhausted, and I knew I had to get to work early in the morning and be presentable. Rowsey went out with our other Ashley bud from work to go dancing. My feet had it, and I was out for the night. I was happy to get a night's rest at a hotel without Whiskey burrowed under me. In typical girl's night out form, she returned to our hotel with a bag of Steak and Shake and the clock at 3 AM. Overall, GaGa was wonderful and fantastic. I can't wait to see her again!
On Friday, I made it to work in one piece, and had lunch with Nikki. She returned from her vacation with Ike, so we went to our favorite sushi joint. On Saturday, Gualdoni and I had a Dr. Falda day and hung out with him all night. We went to see Inception, which was FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC! Then we went to dinner at Houlihan's and came back to our place for watching Black Dynamite and The Road. Lord, we should have Black Dynamite play nonstop at our house. "Dr. Wu and his kung-fu treachery!" Indeed!
