Gimme more was all I could think, without givin me whiplash from all those head flicks. Britney's concert was well worth seeing, even if it didn't reach it's full showstopping potential. To be that close in proximity to her was true excitement for all in the audience, yet it was as though she was a little unsure of herself and not confident if left alone on stage, giving more of a puppeteering performance for the stage managers. Her back up dancers provided true talent, and to steal an observation by my friends, produced the most personal part of the show when they were individually introduced towards the end, right before she performed Toxic and Baby One More Time. The crowd roared when these oldies came on, and boy were they goodies... Perhaps she should have stuck to her former hits rather than a lot of songs from her new album that no one has heard before. Otherwise spanning the arena to see a very still audience, this was the only time right at the end, when people jumped out of their seats to sing along.
Unsteadily skipping in her heels, she didn't so much dance, but get pushed around the stage on wheeled props, but I'm not complaining, Me Against The Music saw her finally giving the Britney performance we all expect from a worldwide star performer. Lip syncing her address to the audience, and then lip syncing the one ballad she was supposed to perform live didn't leave much to impress with, and her constant disappearance from the stage no doubt to regain her breath back, left no opportunity to interact and engage the audience. We had great seats and could see everything clearly, and it's the company you go with that makes the experience memorable. For all the teenage girls that went to the effort of dressing up, this was most definitely for you, and I hope if there are any dreams of performing in the future, that last night's show gives inspiration to do a better job. See you at the peak.
