I attended the 31st January show and it was the most mind-blowing concert I'd ever been to. I was able to remain spoiler-free up until my date, it wasn't easy but I made it :vegas:, and it was so worth it.

I had no idea which songs were going to be performed, I had no idea how the stage or lighting looked like, what outfits she was doing to wear, and I obviously did not know she was going to start from the very roof of the building, and when ScheiBe and the robot came I was like 'OH MY FREAKING GOD.'

Also Aura, ScheiBe, Judas and Government Hooker were like a wild psychedelic trip, I think someone was smoking marijuana in front of me and I thought 'did some of those get into my system cause I am having a fcking good time.'

And my mom and I cried to her speeches in between Million Reasons and You and I, and also during Shallow. Her vocals were still by far superior to anyone I'd ever seen live, only Beyonce and Gaga can rival each other, but Gaga takes the cake cause visually she's much more interesting and creative.

And the screens and backdrops >>>>>

Oh I also didn't expect her to act with a talking robot, that part truly surprised me. I thought it was going to be a basic show with interludes in between.

I seriously can never avoid spoilers and I hate myself for it :cryga: I was still shook and the video I took during Scheisse is embarrassing because all you hear is me screaming “oh my god” 4 times :air: the backdrops are absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! I couldn’t believe my eyes and you can only truly appreciate them if you’re in the crowd! I hate that many people complain about this show because it really is fantastic :nick:

I cropped it from one of the merch shirts awhile ago and had it saved ever since!

Hello everyone :nick:

I wanted to share my Enigma/Vegas experience with all of you! I attend the May 30th show but also made my trip a 5-day vacation! I apologize if this is long :selena:

2019 marks 10 years since I became a fan of Gaga, so I thought what better way to celebrate than to get a tattoo in Vegas, so I got one the day before the show! 

  Hide contents

I have always these specific lyrics tattooed since her music is so important to me, but I also wanted some kind of logo that represented her. When the jazz and piano perch came out I thought the LG was PERFECT because it sort of looks like a music note, so I came up with this:

 

 

The day of the show, OBVIOUSLY I had to go to Haus of Gaga during the opening. It's still so surreal that I was one of the first fans to go inside :cryga: I lined up about 2hrs before getting in but it was TOTALLY worth it, they couldn't have chosen better outfits and props to display! The second I walked through the doors, HML started playing and it was a religious experience :pray: You can only stay in there for about 15-20mins (which is more than enough time), but you can line up again right after to go back inside!

The show is absolutely fantastic (I was personally not disappointed by it when I watched it through a Periscope like some were :selena:) but I can assure you it is MUCH better when you witness.mp3 it live in person :giveup: Gaga is so adorable (we been knew) :nick:

I didn't feel like wandering around Park Theater before the lineup started so I only showed up literally when the official line was established outside which was 5:30pm. I was #192 in line, and everything went extremely smoothly. I met the sweetest fans in line and we ended up in the pit together which was amazing. I stood in the little nook in between the stage and piano, PERFECT VIEW!

This was my 4th time seeing her and yet it always feels like the first time :cryga: It's so surreal how amazing you feel during those ~2hrs during her show. I had a meltdown when she came out on that robot during Scheisse even though I knew it was coming, ITS INCREDIBLE.

Other activities I did while in Vegas that I recommend: Visiting the Stratosphere and eating at their restaurant! The views are breathtaking and the restaurant rotates :flutter:, Zip lining at LINQ, Madame Tussauds at the Venetian, Eiffel Tower at Paris hotel. PURCHASE GROUPONS FOR THIS, IT'S MUCH CHEAPER!

Someone here (can't remember who), recommended downloading the official slots apps for Vegas and I HIGHLY recommend this! I should have started playing a lot earlier. There's tons of rewards you can redeem, including free stays at hotels!

This trip cost me so much money, but it was worth every penny :ally:

Sorry for the long post, if you have any questions I'm happy to answer them! :kara:

Haha hi I recommended the game! Saved me sooooo much money when I went for gaga (we went to the same show).

 

with the game my friend and I were able to get 4 nights for free (2 nights each person) plus free buffers and other free show tickets :)

 

so yes def worth playing for future visits :D 

 

also so I went to Haus of gaga after the show and there was no line. Didn’t get to go before the show because I had a makeup artist come to my room to do my face and when I got to the line, gaga was at the museum. 

Also im curious why they had you outside when I was in a line inside st 5:30.

 

i really dislike the miscommunication though! My friend was in a wheelchair and ticket booth said there was no ADA line but then there was?? Lol

I don't think I had seen any artist utilise visuals as effectively as Gaga did with Enigma. It was so surreal, it was like you were in a science fiction movie travelling through universes.

The transition between Paparazzi/Aura and ScheiBe/Judas was mind-blowing. It's like all of a sudden she's consumed, and her playing dead during the 'I killed my former and...' was unexpected to me, I feel like she was trying to convey how fast fame can consume a celebrity. I mean, she was literally screaming to Enigma about how she's scared in the previous song.

YES! I had purchased flight + hotel shortly after I bought Enigma tickets but I plan on attending again next year so I'm going to use my rewards! It's so easy to rack up LPs! 

Were you able to combine your reservation with your friend to make it 4 free nights together? 

Hmm thats odd about the lineup, we were outside for about 1hr until they let us in the venue at 6:30 :selena: I don't really mind since I had a great view but it was a tad confusing and wish it was a little more organized!

Well I had booked 2 nights at aria and she 2 nights at park mgm

 

however if you and a friend both book 2 nights (say mon/tues and wed/thurs) you can combine the booking so you don’t have to check out and then check back in :)

 

so in the end 4 nights you would be able to get

however there are blackout days which usually are weekends (fri-sun) And any holiday or major event happening in Vegas such as like a convention or the like.   

 

If you join the myVEGAS friends rock on facebook groups, it’s a great group to learn the ropes with the game and lots of suggestions on things to do in Vegas as well especially since they recently changed the rewards with premium and non premium.

 

basically premium is anything totally free and non premium is anything that’s a bogo or discount.

 

premium you get up to 3 and non premium is unlimited :) 

However each reward does have its limit too, so basically you can only do 1 room reward within 30 days and same with a show. For instance KA you can only get one ticket within 30 days if you do the free, so If you did a room and KA, that would be 2 premium rewards so you have one remaining.

 

hope that makes your next trip easier. Just read the terms and it will also tell you if a reward requires a room stay and most rewards that do, the comp room you can redeem does count as a room stay :)

Oh thank you!!! :runhug: Do share your tattoo when you get it done! I would love to see it! Also, I would avoid getting it done on the strip if you want to save some money, they’re over triple the price. I took an uber 10mins away from the strip and the prices are A LOT more reasonable! 

You're most welcome! I'll be sure to share when I get it done – I'm not sure it'll scream Gaga to the uninitiated but it will be special to be for my own reasons. And that's excellent advice, I was going to go to Club Tattoo for the convenience of being on the Strip but I found someone whose expertise is in what I want just a 18 minute Uber away at Heritage Tattoo. Here's hoping the time flies, I can't wait. :kiss:

Thanks for sharing your tips. We are going to June 12 show. Do you think we should be there before 5pm? We've got GA standing tickets and I don't want to end up somewhere among the scramble of sweaty teenagers 😁 😁 

Seriously though, is there a point for queueing up way before (like we did for BTWB and ArtRave to be closer to stage)?

Yesterday I showed up at 4:30. People started their own line around 5 and then the line was formed a little bit before 5:30. Some people were waiting around the casino all day and made sure they were in the front of the GA line. We were probably the 65th in the GA line. Made it to about 4th row dead center in the pit.

a lot of pushing and shoving and people trying to sneak their way to the front causing arguments. Honestly the most heinous Gaga GA group I’ve ever witnessed. Usually people are pretty good. But there were quite a few drunks being obnoxious. 

Pro- tip: Don’t get out of the pit to pee or get a drink, you ain’t getting back to your original spot! 

Had I been a bit taller I would have been able to see more haha.

My Monster friend of 5 years nearly is in Vegas right now and he sent me a video of the inside of the Haus Of Gaga exhibit and I nearly cried at how beautiful it is! Thank you for sharing your experience, is it true about the 5pm queuing rule? Like you can't go in line till then?

I had people stampede at artRAVE (even tho it was Early Entry) and people right at the back of the line ran to the front and the security were just like :shrug: safe to say when I went Joanne Tour they learnt their lesson (same arena) and lead us in 2 at a time to avoid stampedes. I understand the want to be at the front but being nasty and pushing is just gonna cause fights and you might get kicked out. That sucks :(

Being at Park MGM I thought the crowd will have some class 🤦‍♂️ 

I guess we'll start lining up around 5pm then. As long as we are aligned with the centre of the stage, I'm happy.

Yeah I was pretty close but I wouldn’t mind being a few rows back from where I was. In the pocket between the center stage and B stage was excellent!

Awe, this brings back good memories, I also went to Vegas last week (same Lady Gaga show!!) and while I did different things in that city, I still had an amazing trip overall.

Wish I could relive the memories :flutter:

I fell down the stairs once as an actor.
