Friday, Mar. 26, 2004 I don�t even know how to begin this entry. As most of you know, the Britney concert was last night. Throughout the day I kept thinking, I�m going to see Britney tonight, but it never really registered with me. When I got home from school I listened to In the Zone a few times and watched some performances I had recorded to pump me up. She�s such a big star that I find it hard to think of her as a real person. It�s hard to explain, but knowing that I was going to actually see the Britney Spears was just surreal. I headed over to Devon's house around 7-ish, and Francie and Maddie (my aunt and cousin) arrived a little after that. We rode downtown together to the new arena. That place is freakin� awesome. Anywho. Let me tell you how I�ve never seen so many skanky girls in my entire life. Oh, and do I even have to say how much I hate these skirts? All the little skanks had them on. The person who decided to design skirts like that needs to die in a fire. But I digress. Back to the concert. When we arrived, Skye Sweetnam was on. She�s just a mini Avril Lavigne and she needs to go away. But yeah, we got to our seats and holy crap were they horrible. I mean, they were very close, but they were practically behind the stage. We could probably see one tenth of the entire stage! My aunt got up and left for a second, said she was going to get us better seats. I thought it was a long shot, but thank goodness she went and asked when she did. Luckily there were a few seats on the other side of the arena that they hadn�t sold, and they let us have those instead. They were freakin� awesome seats, and we had a perfect view of the entire stage. Muahahaha. Around 9 the lights dimmed. I got so anxious and giddy and nervous and I was just overcome with emotion. And yes I cried a little bit, but that was expected. After the crazy clown guy said a few words (he was pretty cool by the way), Britney came out. She opened with Toxic, and I swear I had my hand over my mouth for most of the performance because I was in such shock. I mean, she was right there. Britney. Right there. Breathing the same air as me. Oh my god. She was so beautiful. I mean, I couldn't take my eyes off of her. She was incredible. I was surprised at how her hair was. Normally it's long-ish and kinda curly/wavy. But last night it was short (well, short compared to how I'm used to seeing her hair... shorter than mine), and it was straight. I really liked it. Kinda making me want to cut mine again. But anyway. Did I mention how gorgeous she was? And don't even get me started on her legs. Devon and I were talking about how massive they are - in a good way. I'd kill for legs like Britney's. Her body is just slammin', okay? Damn she's sexy. I just can't picture a more perfect woman than her. But uh... back to the concert. With a taste of your lips She can be my poison paradise any day. Mreh heh. After Toxic she performed Overprotected, and to be quite honest I can�t remember the order after that, but I�m going to try. I think Showdown was next, and then Boys. She did the cabaret version of �BOMT and Oops, and honestly I thought it was kinda boring. I did, however, like the bullwhip attached to her mike, though. Heh. She played piano and actually sang (yeah!) Everytime, then she performed The Hook Up followed by Slave. I think those two were my favorites. I just really loved the outfit and the fact that she did them barefoot was so great. Must be nice for her to dance without shoes on for a change, hehe. I think Shadow was next. I really really enjoyed this one. The cool thing was that Britney wasn�t even the main focus. At least that�s how it was for me. I was paying more attention to the dancers doing crazy aerobatic stuff on the material hanging from the ceiling. It was sort of like a Cirque Du Soleil performance. This is the best picture I could find, and the dancers aren�t even in it, lol. But you get the idea. Okay, now to the good stuff. Touch of my Hand, ohh yeah. I loved it. I don�t care how perverted or overtly sexual people say it is, I thought it was amazing. I mean, c�mon, it doesn�t get much better than this. That, and all the male dancers doing things representing masturbation, was just so freakin� hot. Devon leaned over and casually said, �So this is like the big masturbation scene then?� It was so great. I�m all in my skin and I�m not gonna wait After Touch of my Hand she did Breathe on Me. This was the one where she makes out with one of the dancers, heh. I think Outrageous was next. Then she changed into some cute gray pants and a pink shirt and sang Boom Boom. Dang, I just now remembered that she did Crazy at some point in there, but I can�t remember what part it was at. Oh well. I think I did pretty good with the order of the other songs. She did MatM as the encore and she wore a red suit and it was way cute. And then� it was over. I swear I can die happy now that I�ve seen Britney live. But now I just want more. It will probably be years �til I can see her live again (if ever) but that concert is something I�ll never forget. Unfortunately they didn�t allow cameras, so I have no pictures (actually, we were able to sneak the camera in, but we didn�t take any pics because security was freakin� everywhere), but I have a program and this lovely diary entry to look back on, lol. So that�s all folks! If any of you reading this happened to be at the concert, I�d like to know what you thought of it, so let me know! Later. I'm up against the speaker, tryin' to take on the music
