is that why she did it? The tickets I wanted were $98 each...but general admission is only $48...the venues are being bastards about it. They reserved the best seating on the floor and doubled the prices.

Went to Target, Saw The Fame Monster, Bought it <3 I got the regular edition. The deluxe edition didn't feel like it came with a 2nd CD?

For the better :3 The regular edition counts as a sale of The Fame Monster, and the deluxe counts as a sale of The Fame after all :3

Yea she specifically mentioned that she knows it's a bad economy and that she didn't want her fans to pay a fortune to see her. I don't remember where, but she explained several times that they could push ticket prices down if they did smaller shows, more nights instead of one big show and one night.

Like New York, Radio City holds barely 6000 people and she's doing 4 nights. She could've easily done a bigger venue in one night. But, the tickets got bought up (or were already given to stubhub, damn you ticketmaster) and the prices are now insane anyway.

Random but, do you guys know what event GaGa bought $1000 worth of pizza for her fans? I saw this article at YAHOO but it didn't specifically say where the fans were, or what they were waiting for.

The only monster we don't know yet is Dance In The Dark.

Bad Romance - Fear of Love
Alejandro - Fear of Sex
Monster - Fear of Attachment
Speechless - Fear of Death
Telephone -Fear of Suffocation
So Happy I Could Die - Fear of Alcohol
Teeth - Fear of Truth
Fear of insecurity maybe?

I bought a poster at the concert friday night and I wanted to show you guys in case you might be interested in getting it when she stops in your city.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvoWELeNyiY

Here are the videos I uploaded on Facebook

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?.../?id=121300990

And here's my quick review of some of the highlights of the show:

Dance in the dark
Everyone was SO suprised that she started with this song. We all thought she would start with either BAd Romance (the ra ra ah ah ah...would've been an awesome intro) or Monster. The intro wasn't bad per se, but it wasn't as epic as the Fame Ball intro. The staging is really cool...it looked like she was inside a 3D box with techno lights all around her.

Fashion
I was very shocked that she sang it. Fashion is one of my favorite song and i'm very glad she did it. She wore the golden outfit that made her look like an egyptian goddess. Most people didn't know the song and thought it was a brand new song.

Paper Gangsta
Another good surprise. Down side of it is that she seemed lazy to sing it and just mumbled the verses. Also, she was smoking while singing the song, probably trying to portray the 'Gangsta' feel of the song. Apparently, she smoked 3 or 4 other times, but I didn't notice. Not a very good image.

Paparazzi
She looked amazing here. She was wearing the same outift as the Fame Monster cover (blonde version) and at one point, she got on a platform and it moved up, then down. Her vocals were great here.

Eh Eh (nothing else I can say)
I was waiting for the 'Orbit' to appear and it finally did LOL Very cool effect and the orbit was spinning SO fast.

All in all, a great show, but I much preferred the Fame Ball cause I tend to like smaller productions which are less noisy and more simplistic.

Speechless
Fear of Death. She wrote it as a plea for her dad to get a heart surgery.

Teeth
Fear of Truth. Show me your teeth= show me the truth. She said she used to replace truth with sex. She hides in the physical aspect of the relationship.
I guess what she means is that sex is much easier than love, but sex isn't something that's true. It's like fake affection, fake love....

Monster
Fear of Sex. The song is about a guy with a big engine LOL She's scared of attachment and she always goes back to the 'Monster', which is bad for her.

So happy I could die
Fear of alcohol, drugs, addiction. She says that when you drink, you're in that state of happiness,but when it all ends, you go down very very fast.

Telephone
Fear of Suffocation. She loves her work so much that it's hard for her to just go out and have a good time. The telephone in her head tells her to keep working.

Bad Romance is about being in love with your best friend, that's how it equates to fear of love.

Alejandro is Fear of Sex, it's a symbolic farewell to her past lovers.
