[Kimmo 76,866]

I haven’t seen anything, seems like this is the lees hyped Residency ever and what worries me the most is all the money I’m spending to get there next week for my show on the 31st

Ugh we’ll see what happens

Tony b was there

Enigma is great,  but I've seen Gaga 16 times and last night is in my top 3. It's the perfect show for fans who prefer mind blowing vocals over hearing the same hit singles they've heard for years. If I came back to Vegas but could only afford to go to one show, it would be J&P, not Enigma. I'll probably post a longer review later.

Thanks for posting. Appreciate your view.

The reviews for Jazz are way better than Enigma. 

[Carpet Shark 223]

Here's a double-barrelled review (Enigma/Jazz). It's generally positive:

Excerpt:

Sunday night. “Jazz and Piano.” The big premiere. There will be jazz, technically. And piano, no doubt. But the rest of it will feel like two hours of orange juice after brushing your teeth —and to kick things off, an excited young woman in an impeccable cocktail dress will be waterboarding you with Minute Maid. Hold still, please.

With an entire orchestra at her back, Gaga comes out to “Luck Be a Lady,” singing and swinging, snap-snap-snapping her fingers like a stressed parent trying to hustle a feral pack of kiddos through the sliding side-door of a Honda Odyssey. Her voice sounds so bright, it’s almost scalding, and when she welcomes everyone to the party with her New Yawk accent turned up a few clicks, she quotes Cole Porter as if she’s dying to put his maxim to the test: “Anything goes!”

Didn’t Gaga drive a Transformer across this very spot last night? Why does this feel a million miles further out there?

It must have everything to do with the unchecked brass in her singing voice, which threatens to oversell each song at the outset only to burn a hole through it by the end. She simmers down a few joules when her 92-year-old jazz tutor Tony Bennett materializes for a duet, but otherwise, instead of sinking into these songs — “Lush Life,” “Fly Me to the Moon,” “New York, New York”— Gaga can only blast out of them. And when she does, the flames are preposterously beautiful.

Wow, this is an amazing review. And it's honest. There were a few moments where it felt like she could simmer down a little but she never missed a beat and wowed the whole audience.
