LIVE in concert!

One of my best friends daughter just went to her 1st LIVE concert – the Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana phenomenon.  I must admit, I felt mildly jealous.

It got me thinking back to one of the best parts of my childhood & adolescent years: concerts!

I got to see New Kids on the Block, Bobby Brown, M.C. Hammer (“turn this mutha out!”), Brandy, The Winans Family Christmas Re-union, The Clark Sisters, Christina Aguillera, Boyz II Men (twice!), R.Kelly & TLC.

Earlier this summer my friends Jamileh, Lubna & I were going to go see Beyonce at the Palace but then decided not to because even the nosebleeds were selling for $75 a pop.  I regret this!  Arrghghg, it would have been so much stinking fun!

I also really wanted to see the Britney Spears Circus tour this year… but alas that opportunity has also come & past.

I’ve decided I’m no longer a keep-it-on-the-down-low Britney fan… I mean, c’mon the chick is an awesome performer.  Who wouldn’t want to see her dance around with a tiger on her head? 🙂

To balance my pop parade here… I also really love orchestra concerts.  I do! I am totally fascinated by live orchestra music.  I would love to one day see the New York Symphony Orchestra perform.

What were your fave concerts growing up?  Any concerts you’d love to go to now but it just wouldn’t work out for time, money, babysitters or other reasons?

Don’t be ashamed, if you want to see Miley Cyrus or the Jonas Brothers, trust me, I won’t hate! 🙂
