Totally gobsmacked. Absolutely awesome!! Jaw droppingly magnificent!! 10 start review!!

I even shed a tear, and must admit, a little bit of wee came out at one stage.

Lady Gaga live Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janerio earlier this week.

2.5 million turned up apparently.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYKQoGT9it0&t=5549s 2 hrs

Full 1080p HD and awesome sound!

Was up all night perfecting Youtube video downloads and I think I’ve got it just right, before this one, or another Youtube copy of it gets taken down. The first one I found was removed due to copyright.

Just need to xfer it to my home theatre KODI system, then this one’s going on the big screen and audio system tonight, baby!! Annoy the neighbours, hey what but!!

She’s amazing live. I’ve seen her a couple of times, but her new tour is a bit out of my budget 😢

BTW, you coulda gone to Rio instead of a cruise. The Rio concert was free.

Is she touring here with this show?

I can’t guarantee it’s this exact show but yes. This concert was part of the Mayhem tour so it’s gonna be pretty close.

The first time I saw her in concert was the Monster Ball Tour. She took several minutes to rest in the middle; not long afterwards she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia.

I just put it on the ordinary tele with the sound system last night direct from Youtube. Fab full HD picture quality and awesome sound, so it’s the big screen for me tonight.

Yet to see if the downloaded copy is just as good quality. Only looked at it on the pooter so far. File specs tell it should be just as good.

Also now perfected Youtube video downloads for anything else I want. šŸ‘šŸ»šŸ‘šŸ»

Anyway it does look quite spectacular, but my only allowances of pop music each year are the Eurovision semis and final, so I’ll save myself for them.

Can’t easily find the full Coachella performance, but the snippets available have similar staging and design to the Copacabana one.

A lot of the Coachella stuff I can find is just someone’s mobile phone.

That’s why I want the Brazil one before/if it gets taken down. Hence, up all night to do it.

Woodie, do you know about yt-dlp? It’s a command-line tool that takes a youtube.com url and downloads the video — or whole playlist if that what the url is. No need to stay up half the night to download a video; I just downloaded the Lady Gaga video you posted in 2 minutes (it’s a 3GB file.)

Thanks for that, MR BTM. Yes. I know about yt-dlp and youtube-dl but I couldn’t get it to work on my Media Centre (KODI) Raspberry Pi. yt-dlp command line would find the video, but kept giving errors. I found ClipGrab (Windows) that has a GUI front end, and downloads youtube-dl to use in the background. Very simple. and worked.

It’s now on the big screen and the windows are a rattlin’!! šŸ˜šŸ˜Ž

Clipgrab took about 2 hours. I did not try yt-dlp stand alone on Windows. I do not have a net connection that will do 3GB of anything and 2 mins.

Just downloaded yt-dlp, went to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_unoiaswZvw and copied the url.

Then yt-dlp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_unoiaswZvw

45 minutes of Dick Gaughan in about 2 minutes all up :)

It has the added advantage that you don’t get ads.

I don’t get Youtube ads anyway. However, at busy webernets time like a Friday night, It won’t stream 1080p youtubes etc without continual buffering. It won’t do 4K at all — ever… without buffering.

FWIW JDownloader is also very good at downloading many types of online vids.

I’ll give yt-dlp a go after the footy and bicyclettes and annoying the neighbours with Lady Gaga DOO DOOF at 100 decibels til the wee small hours. That’s if Lady Gaga don’t cause the roof to collapse first, hey what but!

Perhaps 2.5 million people could do a big smile.
Or try doing the lady herself.
