Mayhem on the Beach

“Live at Copacabana Beach, Rio de Janeiro. Gaga and over 2 million Little Monsters gathered for her first concert in Brazil since the Born This Way Ball. Greatness ensues and history is made (no, literally--this is now the most-attended musical performance by a solo female artist). Now when I get butterflies over speaking in front of a group, I just remember Gaga performing the first half of "Blade of Grass," solo piano and vocals, for an audience with roughly as many people as the population of the state of Idaho. That usually does the trick. I enjoy streaming concert recordings on my TV at home for either active viewing or invigorating the room while I do chores. I'll periodically share more live performances that I've treated my ears & eyes to for these purposes.”
