To preface everything I am about to say, honestly it was a completely epic time. One of those times when the night just seemed to go by in blurs of happiness and getting down. I haven’t danced that much in one night in a LONG time.
Overall I thought the music was pretty good all night. Troy was a little boring and repetitive but that is to expected of him. Magda was the highlight of the night in my opinion. Heartthrob threw down a good set but from what I remember he wasn’t on very long. I saw the first 30 minutes of Richie probably. For that portion he was throwing down pretty hard and the crowd was going ape-.
The venue was pretty cool. I loved the fact that you could go just about any were, upstairs or down and there wasn’t a bunch of roped off VIP areas. The sound was clear and loud both upstairs and down. Now for the biggest complaint of the night:
IF YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A COUPLE THOUSAND KIDS ROCKEN’ OUT FOR OVER 6 HOURS LET THEM FRICKEN LEAVE TO SMOKE. Seriously, this wasn’t a rock show that lasted 3 hours, we were there from 10:30 until 3:30 and were not allowed to leave or go outside to smoke. I almost got kicked out for eventually try to smoke a quick one but managed to get a few others in without getting the boot. Other people I knew were no that lucky, ing retarded.
I heard Rickie was sitting down at the end of his set, wasn’t really into it and didn’t give the crowd any sort of response from chatting his name and such. I would have been pretty sour if I would have seen that at the end of night personally but we had already left.
All in all, I didn’t have high hopes for this one. The 18 + thing scared me, the fact it was at a concert venue that would attract all sorts of yuppies and suburban people threw me off a bit. But all in all everyone that I encountered was there for the music and to rock out.
I haven’t seen that many people getting down in unison in a VERY long time. People say this type of music isn’t dance music, or that you have to be on drugs, my ass.
~p.s. - im busy as at work right now and dont have to proof read this so please be advised, and |

it's much easier if you smoke on the dance floor. just to the bend over to touch your toes and take a drag.
heartthrob was pretty fun, but yeah, he didn't play long at all... and there were two douchebags shouting at him for using a laptop. |
