First time seeing her act. Pretty good, reminded me a little of Terry Bozzio from Missing Persons.
Whoops, meant to say DALE Bozzio.
You mean Dale Bozzio. Her persona is sort of similar, but Dale wasn’t quite the athletic performer and Gaga’s music isn’t nearly as driven, it’s far more poppish.
Yikes - there is a So Cal KROQ reference. Agreed but just on the superficial looks - Terry was a bit squeaky in the pipes while Gaga has got a remarkable range for a little shrimp. I think she did herself and her future career a big boost last night by sticking to singing not huffing and puffing snide remarks.
Terry's husband was a Zappa drummer - v good.
I hadn’t thought about Missing Persons since the 80s, I only vaguely remembered the band, did a quick youtube search, they are still performing.
