Beauty, Hosiery & Shopping Tips From Lady Gaga’s Opening Act

Last night, local New York City rock legends Semi Precious Weapons partied it up at the Mondrian SoHo’s Mister H to celebrate their opening performance for 30 Second To Mars. Jared Leto et al’s on stage performance at the Hammerstein Ballroom last night was one for the record books, literally, as it marked their 300th show within a single album cycle, meaning that they just broke a Guinness World Record.

The last six months they’ve been setting up camp in LA to work with producer Tricky Stewart (think Beyonce and Rihanna) for their new album. Not to mention, they also spent 18 months before that opening up for Mother Monster Lady Gaga, who’s a good friend of Semi Precious Weapons as well as a fan.
