Plan ahead: Lady Gaga’s Monster Ball Tour

Yes, it’s four months away, but it’s also Lady Gaga, the current hottest pop act on the face of the planet. Her Monster Ball tour doesn’t swing through the Big Easy until this April, but tickets are already perilously close to selling out. Her live shows are a multimedia extravaganza, and she’s sure to fill the New Orleans Arena with her glamorous style and hook-heavy pop. Tickets at ticketmaster.com.
