Last
night's '
concert' offered a lesson of sorts to me, this being the first
concert I've attended by a
dance artist.
David Guetta came here last
year but I was out of the country, so I missed it.
Well, tip #1 for a concert of a dance a
rtist
- DON'T COME EARLY! I came around 7:30PM to find that the gates were
not open and no one was inside the MOA Arena yet!! We decided to get
something to eat first then entered the arena around 8:30PM. Well, that
was still too early!! There was a pre-concert DJ revving everybody up
but SHM came out at 11PM!! So Tip #2 - take a nap before coming to the
show - you'll need the extra energy and anyway, they start late. Tip #3
- wear comfortable dancing shoes!! Especially for dance acts like SHM!!
You'd hate yourself if your shoes were killing you and you can't dance
since these guys really know how to mix it up!! Tip #4 - keep yourself
hydrated - Denki joked that I drank 3 pails of iced tea last night!
Yeah, it was a bit true since I went our several times to get a drink -
maybe I lost 700 calories dancing last night but drank 1200 calories of
iced tea - so that's going to show in my belly later!
As for
the show, I really loved it!! It was amazing how they were able to
combine video, laser lights and fireworks with the music - and making
everything synchronize to the music! Frankly, I only know like, six of
their songs - and they played a full 2-hour set last night - but I
wasn't bored at all - I was dancing like crazy for a full hour - and it
was great too that the crowd were hard core clubbers themselves - so it
was full party atmosphere last night!!
And the bonus part was there were so many cute boys - mostly straight and they came in packs!
