They go Gaga for..well...Gaga!


I'll keep this one short and sweet. Earlier in November a little music act was coming through Costa Rica, and here name is Lady Gaga. Okay, so maybe it was a huge deal with everybody freaking out. You have to understand that it is rare for Costa Rica to get big concerts to come through since the country is so little. The Born This Way Ball (name of the concert) took place in el Estadio Nacional in San Jose. We showed up in the early afternoon to wait in line to get the best spots possible. The girls that I went with had dressed up like Gaga in her videos, and I just tagged along for a concert I was still totally stoked for. We stood in this massive line where people were trying to sell you anything from a snack to unofficial merch. We made a couple of friends in line, and headed into the concert (okay, maybe we ran a little bit) to get a good spot. There isn't much I could describe past that time, because the rest was so crazy. Between the awesome opening acts, singing along to "I Believe in a Thing Called Love", and of course, Gaga; it was so cool. She sang all of her hits from her albums. Costa Rica loves her and I'm sure that she loves them back. I just have trouble describing it in words. Unreal. Pura Vida.
