The
live coverage didn't work because all network cell phone coverage was shut
down within a couple of miles radius of the Foro Sol Stadium according to
reports, god knows why, but that's why the coverage didn't work out for us,
but here is her review ! :
When we arrived at Foro Sol, it was like 5:30 pm, and yes, it was kind of
early, but I didn't wanna miss the experience. Well as hours passed, they
started to play a few videos on screen and stuff. Which was cool. It took a
little time for the place to get totally packed. When Luis Fonsi came
onstage, although he is a very good singer, I gotta say his music did
nothing to me....Everyone did seem a little bored, at least around my zone,
and everyone was just talking and sometimes, ignoring Luis Fonsi. He did a
good job though =D.Well, after Luis Fonsi got out of the stage, it took like
from 40 minutes to an hour for Britney to get onstage herself. When she came
out, I swear to God, it was this amazing moment. She looked kind of nervous,
but happy. Well the fans were singing all of the songs, and it sounded
awesome, because the whole stadium was singing along with Britney. After she
finished performing "Crazy", she talked a bit more than the usual stuff. She
was like "How y'all dooooooing?????!!!!!!!" She looked EXTREMELY happy and
the audience was even more hyped up, because Britney seemed so nice. I think
some people expected her to be a bit stuck up, but as I said, she respected
her fans. She looked beautiful. And well, the audience sang along with all
the songs. I loved the way she performed the DarkChild Remix, there were NO
"Bald Britney" images on the background, I loved the performance though. but
even more the way she performed the Music Box Medley....She put her heart
into it, she seemed to be enjoying it.
When she performed "Boys" everyone was just like "w0000t" lol and just
started singing, it was cool, they were really into it, although I think one
of the songs the fans sang along the most was "Stronger".
And well, when she sat and started talking about her life, with the piano
playing, I felt like she wanted to say so much, and she was really honest.
She said we were a very veeeery good crowd, and she couldn't stop smiling.
She said she had been writing a lot lately, and that she was gonna show us
some of her new songs. I don't know what the first song was, but it was
BEAUTIFUL. After that, she sang Mystic Man, and then, Not A Girl, she sang
half of it live.
Now, when the ILRNR sketch came on, a lot of people were laughing with it.
But most of them didn't even get it, probably cause they couldn't understand
much. When she came out, she was wearing a bit of a different jacket, and
the shirt, it was the same design, but it wasn't the usual one. This was
kind of different. After she finished performing "What its like..." and she
had to perform "Lonely" she was so tired she kind of forgot to say it, and
she said "Who's this chick...." and the music started and Britney just said
"well she wants to battle me" really fast. It was funny =D.
Now,
DLMBTLTK was a breathtaking performance, she just walked around the stage
and seemed to be REALLY into the song. It was funny cause you could see Big
Rob walking around at the same pace Britney was, but this time, underneath
the stage....
Now, "Anticipating"....All I can say is WOW. Great job. She was like dancing
all around with two dancers behind her, when the other two girls came out in
the car, with two Mexican hats. Everyone was laughing, and Britney seemed
like she wanted to laugh. She then got in the car with this dancer, and when
she was supposed to get out of it, she and the dancer started goofing around
and playing and they did this kind of weird dance, kind of like rapping, it
was so funny. She asked the audience to sing with her but her voice sounded
all funny, and the backup singers sang with her on that part. You could hear
the whole stadium singing along, it was amazing. When she performed "Slave"
I swear it couldn't have been better. Everyone just started screaming and
most of them were just all hyped up. When "Baby..." started playing,
everyone was just like "....what's this??" but then they started singing
LOL. They would mostly sing the chorus. And well, when it was time for
Britney to leave she seemed like she wanted to say how much she loved the
show and she was like waving and saying bye and smiling, but of course she
had to go down, so she did. After that, the little tour sketch kept most of
us in there. And well.....the concert was done.
I gotta say, it was so much more than I expected. I had heard Britney didn't
seem to give a lot of energy. But the concert was just so unexpected. I knew
what was gonna happen, and I still loved it. All the sudden, playback didn't
even matter to me. That's how good it was. People at the WoB Forums know I'm
totally against it, and I didn't care at all. When she sang live, her voice
sounded beautiful. When she did playback she put her heart into the
performance and danced like crazy.
Britney seemed happy, because we were all enjoying it. Even though I said
that maybe it wasn't happening anymore, Britney found a way to connect with
the audience. For me, it was the most intimate show. Once again, the ones
who know me, totally know that I thought Britney didn't seem to do that
anymore.
I
was a bit upset over the whole "sign" she did here when she arrive, but
seriously, this concert made me admire her more. Britney did an awesome
show. She enjoyed it. We enjoyed it. And the "connection" was there. I hope
all the shows Britney does in all of her upcoming tours are like that. If I
had to rate it, id give it a 1000000 lmfao.
