Lady Gaga and Muse at JPJ


One of the best qualities of Charlottesville is the disproportionate amount of music and arts events going on around us relative to population of the area. In addition to the numerous smaller venues around town, we of course have John Paul Jones Arena and Scott Stadium. In the past, some really huge acts have come through Charlottesville in these two On-Grounds venues, including Jay-Z and T.I., U2 and Muse, The Rolling Stones, DMB, John Mayer, Elton John, Metallica, and others.

I doubt these artists would have ever considered coming to Charlottesville without the reputation of the venues. That new tradition will continue this fall as Lady Gaga and Muse come through JPJ on September 8 and October 27 respectively. Both are renowned for having high quality live shows. Tickets have gone on sale for both acts, and can be purchased here. The videos above both show Muse and Lady Gaga have a taste for extravagant performances.
