Erykah Badu Detroit Concert Review*Updated with pics*

It was a blast and as soon as I can get the pictures off my cellphone, I'll post them and do my review. But I just had to let my fellow Badu lovers know that I got to hug Erykah and tell her that we have the same birthday, last night! excited She hugged me tighter and said to the crowd around us, "Look at my beautiful Sister Pisces!" excited

More to come later! cool

I was sitting in row D, section F3, that's on the main aisle. During her encore of "Bag Lady", she came right up the aisle and my husband and I, near the end of the aisle.

As she was making her way up the aisle with her bodyguard, I was praying that she'd stop for me and she did! excited

Oh wow that's exciting! I'm going to see Ms Badu on Friday and this report has gotten me excited again. I'm so happy that you got to meet her!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

About 45-55 mins. but I was a little (very little) but miffed none the less with their performance! I couldn't hear what Black Thought was saying at all, his mic was too high! pout I knew what he saying because I know the songs but for someone like my husband who isn't familiar with The Roots, he couldn't feel the full effect because he was missing out on an important element!

*Note to the sound guys on the next shows...fix that shit!!! mad

I was out there last night and I loved the concert last night. The Roots did their thang and Erykah was did her thang. I just hate that the Fox had 2 take my girl off stage and end the set sooner than intended. Other than that, it was great!

Thanks for posting the setlist. I'm going to see her in DC next week and was wondering if she was playing more of the newer songs or not.

If she does Bag Lady it will be totally worth the price of admission to me.
