I just had to throw that out there as Facebook is buzzing this morning about Lady Gaga’s Benson invasion last night. I was not there; I did not see the Gaga in person. I heard she got mobbed. I guess The Waiting Room needs to get a “VIP Area,” though I don’t know where they’d put it. Maybe it’s time to build a balcony somewhere…

Well, if Ms. Germanotta

is still in Omaha, she may want to consider dropping in at Slowdown (which does have a balcony) tonight for Ladyfinger with Back When, The Answer Team and Lightning Bug. That’s a lot of heavy rock for just $7. Starts at 9 p.m.
