Lady Gaga puts on an absolutely amazing concert!! Heather and I enjoyed every minute of her concert. I must confess that I've been focusing on Adam's upcoming concert a bit more and hadn't heard much about the tour and her shows. Silly me. If you have a chance to see Gaga live you absolutely MUST go!!
We made it up to Portland around 3 so we got our hotel and crashed for a bit. Then we went to the Lloyd Center and spent a little time looking around. Ate dinner at Red Robin - we missed our hotel the first time because we saw RR and were talking about how Lady Gaga went out for dinner at the Red Robin before the Roseburg concert the night before. LOL!! Can you imagine?! During the concert she said she'd gone for a bike ride in Portland. Cool that she can enjoy a little bit of the various cities while she's there. So random. lol.
We were able to walk over to the venue from the hotel - next time I won't pay for parking and will just know to get a hotel instead. So MUCH easier especially for afterwards. We happened to breeze right through the security line - they barely looked in my little clutch and not at all at Heather's. Wish you'd know when that would happen and have a camera, but oh well. My phone's pics/videos were absolutely terrible, but Heather's may have turned out ok. The Rose Garden's venue is huge and the acoustics are absolutely wonderful! They have tons of food vendors (salmon! salads! all sorts of unexpected stuff that I don't remember) and a couple of merchandise booths. We got some popcorn and went to find our seats - we ended up about five rows from the ROOF of the building! Thank goodness for the big screens because they were ants otherwise. LOL. We were really high and I was wishing I hadn't worn heels because I felt like I had to be really careful to lean backwards while sort of dancing. LOL.
