Concerts

Over the past few years I've had the pleasure of attending to some of the best concerts in my city. I don't want to forget so I'm going to keep track right here and share them with you too :)

1. Rock The Bells Tour
Feat: Nas, Rakim, Murs, Redman & Method Man, The Pharcyde, Mos Def and A Tribe Called Quest (Yes, Q-Tip too).. Needless to say, it was amazing. Standing for about what seemed like 11 hours was hard.. I think it was for 6 hours I may be wrong.. But I remember me and Rob went at about 8 or 9am. The picture below is the actual flyer and the line-up.
2. Glow In The Dark Tour
Feat: Rihanna, Kanye West & N.E.R.D (Apparently Lupe but I don't remember that)
..Again it was amazing! I think we were a bit far back but it was still good. This one I went with Rob, My brothers GF and Rob's good friend. :)

3. My Personal Favorite and most anticipated concert EVER.............
Boys II Men
Me and Rob drove all the way to Orillia and stayed the night there for this one. It was at Casino Rama.. it was just AMAZING. I remember hearing them singing even days after the concert ended.
4. JAY-Z!
Yes.. finally, JAY-Z. This one was on Halloween night and Jay came on with the Jason mask from under the ground.. it was pretty damn awesome. I forgot what the tour name was.... I know J.Cole and Drake were there too though.......Although I got pretty annoyed.. I wanted Jay-Z only!! I went to this one with My two guy friends and yes, Rob was there too :)
5. J.Cole :) -The Warm Up & The Sideline Story
I went to both of his concerts every year he had come to my city! I went to his one with my friend and we had the pleasure to actually meet and hang out with J.Cole himself.. it was a dream come true indeed. It was an amazing concert.. no words can do justice.. he is just such a talented young man.. and ofcourse............Drake was there. The second one was with my other friend and again we had a super blast :)
6. Usher, Trey Songz, Miguel and Drake
So this one was a little different. I went to this one  with 5 of my girlfriends.. I loved every minute of it too. Usher is a good performer to say the least. He was pretty sexual too- ha. He played all his old school jams which made us very happy! Trey Songz was really good too- really sexual as well. Miguel was very brief but did his thing while he was up there.. Drake ofcourse surprised us all (he was good too).
7. Coldplay!
Rumor had it that this may have been the last concert Coldplay was doing. My friend approached me (knowing Im the only one who liked Coldplay) and asked to go. How could I refuse? After all, Coldplay is the Beatles of our generation!! Since it was just yesterday that I went.. Im still in SHOCK. By far THEE best concert I have ever attended in my life. Coldplay is known for their amazing performance but wow.. this was MIND-BLOWING. It was like one HUGE Party.. it was packed.. sold out. There was a confetti party, light show (with everyones wristbands lighting up) and beach balls being throw around the entire venue with everyone just hitting it back to eachother.. Chris Martin and the guys did an amazing job!! They didnt even take a break at the intermission.. they refused, they just kept on going.
