Chris and Rihanna.

Yes, I'm one of those 70,000 who crawled through traffic last November 16, 2008 in Fort. I happen to have free tickets from the office, and gold tickets mind you which was like what, worth P3k and later on worth P6k! I've been through worse traffic which was during the Beyonce concert in the same area. I learned my lesson not to go near the concert, so I parked in Market Market. It was actually a good move since C5 is just right beside the parking at the back.

I totally enjoyed the concert! I actually prepared for it, hahaha. Weeks before the concert, I loaded my Ipod with their latest albums and tried to memorize the lyrics so I can sing during the concert! :)

Aside from watching it for free, the "seats" or rather the area was perfect, I got a good view. In the Beyonce concert I had to look at the screen the whole time, but this time, I looked mostly on the stage. It's just tiring because it's free seating so the whole time we were standing up, but that's also a plus because you can freely dance or sway during the concert. It's just bad if you're not blessed with height, because tall people can block your view.

Chris Brown and Rihanna are really good performers, that I can attest to. People cheered more for Chris Brown, either they're tired when Rihanna performed or they're more Chris fans than Rihanna. Rihanna even said on stage (which I found really funny) something like, "Are you guys this f***ing quiet?" Hahahaha. Awww, poor Rihanna. I wonder if she'll actually come back to Manila.

I can't wait for another free concert!

The Beyonce Experience.

"To the left to the left.." I still can't stop playing this song in my ipod! I still get goosebumps whenever I hear the song because of the concert. I didn't expect it to last for almost 2 hours! :) Plus the concert was really good! She even sang Destiny's Child's songs, she sang "Say My Name" oooooooooohhh that so made my night, I've loved that song back in college, and I still remember the lyrics.

BUT, big BUT, the traffic was HELL. McKinley traffic sucked, plus looking for a spot to park sucked as well, I'm just thankful my brother was the one who parked the car, since he went in the Fort area early with his gf and his gf's sister. And THANK GOD we had free tickets, imagine if we paid for it, P2,500 x 2 for my ticket and my cousin Kat's. Plus tickets for my brother, P1,000 x 3. That's like P8,000 already. Sooooooooooo I'm really thankful for the free tickets at work. I actually won in the Ayala Center raffle but only the P600 tickets :) so I just gave it away.

I guess for the Justin Timberlake concert, if he does push through with a show here, I think I need to break the bank to watch him upclose :D Or better yet, win tickets in a raffle again. I want to win Meet and Greet Justin. I hope we don't do the promo for that because I won't be eligible to win, we did the promo for M&G Beyonce, the download Beyonce images and tones promo thing, and of course I wasn't eligble to win. Sayang! But I still got to watch haha so let's just count the blessings :D
