    Dont get in early, you get moved to the first row of a que,if the o2(or3) angels spotted you, and its only like 50 people.. So you get in at the time gates open, like 10 seconds before the people behind you..

    Agh okay, so not really much point to it then? Thanks for the info :)

    I was there at 4am the last time, this time it'll be more 4pm ha ha. If she brings her full catwalk stage, there will be plenty opportunity to be up at the front near her, and even under her :D

    Is there any particular reason to head in before 8.30? Does Lady Starlight have anything that adds to the show in particular?

    well, she is good, but in fairness she doesn't offer that much to the whole thing.
    And she will probably be playing for 20 minutes at most.
    I am gonna head myself around 18:30, be there for around when doors open, get into the buzz!!!

    It was amazing! I got so close to her again and it was so intimate! Much more so then the gig at Aviva!. I might sound a tad irrational but I was so disappointed I didn't get to meet her yet again and I'm on a low now!. Do you think she'll tour again soon?. I miss her already!.

    Huge difference in seeing her in an indoor environment. As good as the show in Landsdowne was, I spent more time watching the screens than the tiny figures on stage. Up close and life-sized she is something to behold. Much more striking and impressive in real life than she ever looked on camera.

    She showed real star quality too when she stopped performing and spoke to that girl for a minute or two to calm her down. She was obviously overwhelmed by being on stage with Gaga and LG went up in my estimation right there.

    I had to stop myself from bawling at that point. She was so lovely to her.

    Great performance - she stayed true to it being a tour where people are meant to just come and party, but she really showed her pipes when she sang Dope and You and I. And she did Bang, Bang which was epic.

    The floor was absolutely mobbed and didn't see anyone not enjoy themselves.

    Only down side was a lack of a catwalk.

    It's definitely very catchy alright! Thought he was a fantastic crowd warmer when I saw him in Dublin! Saw Lady Starlight at the BTW Ball too and thought she was much better at the ArtRave. I love how Gaga supports the underground music scene and more importantly gives her friends from New York some serious air time as supporting acts on all her tours!. It's nice to be exposed to authenticity from artists?. Gaga is literally my life though! She's helped me through so many of my struggles and continues to help me overcome even the most difficult periods/days. Can't wait to see what direction she'll take with the next album! I'm going to have to meet her one day! I won't stop until I do eventually!. Even if it kills me! :p

    Gutted I missed him!!Hopefully he will be back on the next tour!! :D

    Totally agree on Lady Starlight.Miles better than the BTW Ball.

    It is cool how Gaga stays loyal to her roots alright.

    It is amazing reading stories like yours and many others that she has helped overcome huge problems through her music.

    Haters can slate her all the want but if she even saves one person through here music (of course there are lots) then that makes her fantastic in my eyes.You only had to hear that letter she read last night to see what a difference she makes to peoples lives and of course reading what you wrote above as well.

    Keep your head up and I really hope you get to meet 'Mother Monster' someday too. :)

    I got it on Ticketmaster for the second date the morning they came out. Pure chance - on the 4/5 try about 20mins into the sale. Really think someone else got kicked out of tickets they were holding and I nabbed one, can't believe it :D €110 well spent in my estimation.
