Lady Gaga 12•8•1712/9/2017 Hi everyone! I’m so excited to be writing my first blog post! So, last night I went to see Lady Gaga live in concert. Let me just tell you, she puts on a FABULOUS show. She sounds so beautiful live as well! Even when she’s dancing and moving a lot, her voice stays solid and she’s just practically flawless.
I went with my best friend since literally the day I was born, Logan, and we had so much fun! We waited in line from about 2:00 pm and it was freezing cold and windy, but SO worth it. We met some very nice people and ended up standing by them during the concert by coincidence! We decided to go to the “B stage “ because the main stage was more packed than we wanted. We ended up getting on the barricade for the entire concert at the B stage! It was so wonderful! Lady Gaga was so close to us and she pointed and sang to a girl right next to me! Logan brought a stuffed animal with a note attached to it to throw on stage, but security told him not to. I guess the knew what he had planned to do. So instead, we handed it to Christian, Lady Gaga’s boyfriend, who happened to be standing on the other side of our barricade. He agreed to give it to her and placed it on top of a speaker. My favorite song to see was Bad Romance, hands down. The lights, costume, choreography and everything else about it was SO extravagant and perfect! The Cure was another greatly performed song. On B stage, where we were at, she performed on the piano, The Edge of Glory, Come to Mama, and then Born This Way. Then she went back to main stage and performed some more, then made her way back to B stage for the encore which was Million Reasons. Million Reasons was so elegant and beautiful! She wore this silver, sparkly body suit and a pink hat. Then she stood up on the piano and finished the song, then got on her knees and it was lowered down into the stage while she sang an angelic closing. I’ve been to several concerts, and by far, Lady Gaga put on the best performance and had the best live vocals I’ve heard so far. She is so stunning! She’s just pure, genuine talent and beauty and I love how she isn’t afraid to be who she is. She’s very unique compared to anyone else in the musical industry and is so wonderful for making other people feel like it’s okay to be different. I met some really nice people! While in line there were these girl, one in her 20s, one in her teens, and one who was about 10-11. Well, the older one ended up getting drunk and kicked out of the concert before the show even started. She was drinking while we were in line and was being very loud and obnoxious. There was also this nice woman and her adult daughter who vouched for our spots if we had to go to the bathroom or something, and we did for them as well. They were the people who ended up standing next to us at the B stage barricade. While we were in line, some protesters showed up. They were protesting against Fur. They played tortured animal sounds and had megaphones they spoke through saying how Lady Gaga has “blood on her hands” and how fur is wrong because it skins animals alive. Basically, how we’re all horrible people for supporting Lady Gaga and wearing fur. They were quite the characters. When we got inside the venue, we were standing at the B stage and we met this nice couple. They were engaged, and their wedding date was set exactly a year from the concert, so December 8th, 2018. One girl was named Chelsea, and the other girl was named Kelsey. They helped up fight off people trying to push the barricade and just talked with us. Chelsea’s Mom (I think) was with her and she had this duct taped trench coat with all of Gaga’s songs written on it. She was so cool and is a professor at a college I might transfer to eventually. One of the security guards by us was so chill. I can’t remember his name, but he was a big dude with a deep voice and was absolutely hilarious. He gave us gum and let us put our jackets on the other side of the barrier. He stepped out at one point, and when he came back he was giggling and said he had pipe cleaners. He pulled on the end of his sleeve, and sure enough he had about 10 rainbow pipe cleaners up his sleeve. Kelsey took them from him, and I’m not sure what happened to them after that. I think I saw more guys in high heels than I did girls, but that’s okay. Props to them for their confidence! There was also a guy wearing only a speedo, that had Stars and Stripes the the American flag on it, and a bunch of guys who had the most fabulous makeup it made me jealous. I just love how Lady Gaga is so accepting. No matter who you love, what you look like, or what you believe, it’s okay. Everyone is welcome there, if not united. I have this love hate relationship with the human race. I just love how intricate and unique EACH and EVERY one of us are, and also how same we are. I just loved watching and participating in how so many different people get along and find common interests. I love seeing the humanity in people surface and collide with other peoples in the most beautiful way. It makes all the bad in the world feel so small, and that’s why I believe we’ll be okay. Things may look bad, but there’s more good people than evil in the world, even if it’s hard to believe or see at times. Love one another. And love yourself! Choose to see the good in the people before the bad. We are all humans no matter how different. Different is more than okay. Dare to be who you are. With much love,
