"Gaga is in the Bowie/Madonna/Prince pantheon of artistic" - CapeCodTimes

BOSTON — The glitz, the razzle-dazzle, the pyrotechnics, the sexy black leather bustier, the throbbing high-decibel dance-pop, the paean to the LGBTQ community, the female empowerment theme, the seven or eight costume changes — we expected that and we got it when Lady Gaga unwrapped her nearly two-hour extravaganza at Fenway Park on Friday. It was the first of two back-to-back Boston shows for Gaga, who noted early on that she was the first woman to headline a show at the old ballpark.

This was the hardest rocking Gaga set I’ve seen; her band put the pedal to the metal at various appropriate junctures with big synth and guitar blasts and the bass had chest-thumping power. Her voice? Gaga has exquisite phrasing and she can cover three octaves with her mezzo-soprano, sustaining a note — as she did at the close of “The Edge of Glory” – for a long time.

Gaga’s moved on from the days when she effusively praised her hardcore fan base — her “little monsters” — and realizes she’s dealing with a bigger, broader world now. She also not doing the “shock value” thing right now – sporting clothes made of beef clothes, indulging in vomit art, nearly naked crowd surfing. She’s preaching the Ringo-like gospel of peace and love, saying “we’ve got to stop throwing stones at our sisters and our “brothers” She is, in a Gaga-esque way, sort of normalized. That said, with her zigs and zags — musically, sartorially, emotionally — Gaga, at 31, has earned a spot in the David Bowie/Madonna/Prince pantheon of artistic, provocative, sexy shape-shifters.

I kinda believed that she distanced herself from her fans but the way they explain it actually makes sense

No lies detected 

Although I feel Bowie, Madonna and Prince would all disagree with that statement
