Photo Dump: The Born This Way Ball (Manila)

Here's what it's like to watch the Lady Gaga concert from one of the VIP suites. Not as action-packed as the mosh pit but definitely a memorable experience just the same.

Thanks Sayat and Globe!

Sorry, couldn't help it.

The stage alone was a sight to behold.

Surprisingly, she opened the show with 'Government Hooker'.

Bloody Mary

One of my favorite parts, 'Bad Romance'.

I loved it that she also included tracks from her previous albums. 'Just Dance' and 'Poker Face' never get old.

'Hair' was very touching. She expressed a strong statement denouncing homophobia before singing the song.

Meaty. I was expecting more outrageous outfits but her energy filled that void.

Very 'Rythm Nation'.

The SM Mall of Asia Arena was a fantastic venue.

The place was packed even on the second night. Wow.

With my concert buddy for the night, Angel.

Couldn't help it again.

Our swanky suite.

Hey.

Say hi to our butler/server(?). He was very attentive and willing.

The bar complete with an espresso machine.

Go lang nang go!

We went to the after-party and the second floor. See that cute guy?

He gave us drink stubs.

Thank you Coors!

We were given more free drinks but didn't finish.

Spot the human porcupine.

Fun times.

It's too bad the Indonesia leg was cancelled. 'Til next time!

P.S.

Thanks to my sister for the camera she gave me! I'm loving it so far. It's just a regular point-and-shoot but the setting options are excellent and easy enough to use.-- So yeah, I got a lot of things for free that night.
