Christina Aguilera

Heh I thought my concert-going days were over, but I managed to scrounge out for $100 seats at her Back to Basics concert.

I think Nisa and I were pleased with our balcony seats, at least until we tried taking pictures. She was cursing the fact she didn't bring her camera for fear of it being confiscated while my digicam is still holidaying in Bali with some taxi driver. Camera phones just don't cut it this far from the stage.

Apparently cameras WERE allowed and someone posted in the forums that the stuff actually helped people take pictures.

My best picture was this.

Others, sitting closer to the stage and with cameras that had some semblance of zoom, got much better pictures.

She brought her props from the circus.

And of course her dance entourage.

For all the showmanship, I think the crowd really enjoyed her short monologues.

All picures except the pathetic first one was taken from this forum.

Apparently there were a lot of gays in attendance. Just for the record, I was there with Nisa ok! We were high up in the balcony seats, where the people were dancing in the aisles.

There goes my concert budget for the whole year. No regrets though. Just to hear her do Hurt and Beautiful live was worth it.
