Usher Concert

      This past Friday I attended the Usher concert at Scott Trade Center. I have only been to one concert in my entire life and that was Toby Keith with my grandparents when I was in fourth grade. My friend Devon bought me the tickets for my birthday back in September and I was so excited. We went to eat at Tequilas before the show and that definitely started our night out right. We parked at SWIC in Belleville and rode the Metro Link over to the concert. I felt so grown up riding the Metro on my own. Scott Trade Center was packed full of people already when we arrived and there was still a half hour till the show. Miguel opened the show and he performed for about 20 minutes. I had never heard of him before, but I did enjoy his music. Next was Trey Songz who was absolutely amazing. I like his music and it was so exciting to see him in concert. Trey played for around an hour and every minute was amazing. When Usher came out, he came on a platform this was hoisted in the air and went over the audience sitting on the floor. His entrance was incredible. Usher played music from his entire career, a lot of old and new. He had dancers for every song and an amazing stage set up. Both Usher and Trey were very sexual too. They each made a lot of sexual comments and gestures and all the girls went crazy. The age range at the concert ranged from around age 5-50. It was an incredible experience and I am so happy I got to spend it with my best friend Devon. It was the best birthday present ever!!

    Ah concerts. The greatest experience of all time. It's unfortunate that you've only been to one other than this. But, if it's someone you really enjoy listening to, watching them perform is beyond great. However, you need a little more Metallica in your life Jamie. You had to know I was going to say that.

    I just have to say, the fact that the two concerts that you've been to have been Toby Kieth and Usher is hilarious. I'm not attempting to comment on your lack luster concert attendance, I'm merely trying to point out how funny it is that you went from Toby Kieth, who puts on a standard country show, to someone like Usher, who is known to put on some of the most exciting hip-hop and R&B shows ever.
