OH MY GOD..................okay here's what happened when i went to my first alicia concert....... about 2 weeks ago I had said I was going to an alicia keys concert, my first ever, and my first time ever gonna see alicia........LET ME TELL YOU THE JUNK WAS HOTT, RAW, BLAZIN, OFF DA HOOK, everything all in one!!!! Now the reason it took me so long to come back at yall was because IM STILL TRIPPIN an then i got caught up an i kept forgettin to write........now here's what happened.................
Okay First off i went to the SOUL BEACH MUSIC FESTIVAL in Miami it was JUNE 7TH and it was supposed to be artists performing there they were, Cameo, Musiq Soulchild, and ALICIA KEYS!!!!!!!!! nOW Lemme tell you the joint was supposed to start at 7pm and end at 11pm, tell me why they didnt let people in UNTIL 7pm and it didnt start up till maybe 8:30pm and end at like 1:00am(but anyway) OKAY NOW me being this crazy alicia fan got there madd early, but then when i finally got in (American Airlines Arena) I had pretty good seats see what happened was they had seating in the stands, and then stage floor where u stand but i got seating tix, so i go in. After they finally start cameo is on for bout a hour except it seamt like forever an then after cameo, the host tried to stall while they were setting up for musiq to come on, he told everyone on the stage floor to do the electric slide..........for me i saw the perfect oppurtunity to sneak down on the stage floor cause the man at the gate was real nice, so I went down there and snuck my way all the way up front of the stage....UNBELIEVABLE............so the whole time Im thinking O MY GOD O MY GOD alicia is gonna be here soon.................so musiq comes on but really i dont care im just anxious for alicia............FINALLY dj-iroc alicia's dj comes on and so does freak-nasty doing all his crazy dances he was funny......... and they talk talk talk forever i guess they were tryna stall to they kept saying are yall ready for alicia and we were all like YEAAAAAAAA but then she would never come out until FINALLY FINALLY .....................Alicia comes out man it was like i was seeing god or something it was madd crazy okay she was wearing this turquoise top it was like a sheer type thing actually it was the exact shirt but different color as the one from the MTV diary when she is performing in chicago...............she has light blue jeans with sparkly stuff on it and then black boots...........she had on this black see through looking bucket cap the same exact one from MTV diary when she is at her piano lesson, and her hair is braided all to the left side just like her pose for the rolling stone magazine......... now the first thing she did was come to the middle of the stage and put out her arms and swung her hands left an right as the beat went. Then she went to her piano and it was so funny because she sat down then shook out her hands I cant really explain it in writing and was like to everyone "Are Ya'll ready?" "Are ya'll really ready?" and she flew off her hat then she sung "the life" i think first and then couple others, and when she did HCYDCM the first time it got to the how come you dont call me she paused before she said "anymore" and got up took a cell phone and was walkin from left to right of the stage with it in her hand lipping the words "I know this mutha fucker didnt" it was MADD FUNNY she got back to the piano and finished saying anymooooooore........then the second time she came around to how come you dont call me she paused an said "where dat phone at?" they brung it to her and she got up dialed a # then on the speakers where the music plays you could hear it ringing and then a guy picks up saying hello? and she hung up on him an threw the phone that was good it was funny. so she did some other songs, and the thing I loved about the show is every once in a while she would talk to us so it was like just us and her..............now at one point they stopped the music and she went up to the middle of the stage and she said you know what i need a hat, and they brung her a hat, then she said i need some sunglasses and they brung them, and she was looking so flyy, and they just dropped the "a womans worth" song an she did that one it was real cool, so when she was about to end after she introduced her band she said "MIAMI, CAN I DO ONE MORE SONG?" everyone was sayin YEAAAAAAAAA and then she went to the piano and they played FALLIN, which closed the show......................I cant even explain overall the show was probly the best i'll ever go to.and to this day Im still shocked i actually saw her !!!!!!!!!!! And Im gonna see her again july 22nd for her concert in atlanta and im trippin right now but i know i wont be as close as i was at the miami show but im just glad i had the experience cause it was amazing............................... PEACE
