That was the show that starred in Gaga Tuesday night at El Campin stadium in interpreting her song Born This Way, which gives the name and the whole concept to their current tour.
Before Gaga appeared on the scene, opened the show with a DJ Lady Starlight 'performance' that viewers were greeted with apathy and rock band The Darkness, with its powerful sound that gave a great show to the public. Who did not know this group was surprised with his electric shock.
The many outfits that used the singer always called attention: when he sang 'Alejandro', appeared with a bra as machine guns, for 'Bloody Mary', wore a wedding dress stunning futuristic six feet which seemed to float on stage.

For Gaga, the tour of Central and South America has been a challenge: public attendance has not been as expected. The images of his concert in Costa Rica last November 2, coinciding with the ticket sales figures in other countries, show that for Latin Americans, this artist has surpassed Madonna, whose turn of Colombia will surprise the on 28 and 29 November, in Medellin.

In the 5 one there all the devices that Colombian army has used, also there are the rockets and the bullets that are used.

There are many kinds of airplains, helicopters and tanks, the one that I liked the most is the Batimovil tank, also my father liked the yellow helicopter, because it is not heavy and it is just for two people. I learned that the weapons in the museum use gun powder in order to function because that is what makes the bullets explote and defeat the enemy.
