Britney Spears at House of Blues San Diego Tonite!

http://www.last.fm/event/224227


she's doing a house of blues tour
Why have I waited this one out? Because I wanted to make sure I was able to give you guys as much accurate info as possible, so, here we go. I can officially confirm that Britney Spears is in fact going to tour in less than one week at three House of Blues locations in Southern California. I can confirm that this has been an idea that has been in the works many months before Britney entered rehab, but was delayed due to her stint there. The purpose of the tour is for Britney to reconnect with her fans and I am hearing unconfirmed rumors that Britney will have a Q&A with her fans at the end of each show. The show will feature brand new songs from her new album as well as old hits.

This is just pure nonsense. Why would anyone care. Apparently she was up on stage for less than 15 minutes and lip synced all the way through each song. Who in their right mind would pay to see such garbage? Just suckers IMO.

I have hope for Britney! Her last studio album "In The Zone" was a great pop album. But the only Britney purchases I ever did where the greatest hits and the remix album, which is excelent.

May the haters kill me for this! I DON'T GIVE A FUCK! I'M A POP MUSIC WHORE AND I LOVE IT! razz

In the Zone was a great record, it killed me when people were praising JT's latest CD like it was the second coming and was a big stretch, Britney did that shit on In The Zone much better and more interesting. I have no doubt that Britney will be right back in the middle of things again, because you know why?? She never left in the first place, not a day goes by when people dont make reference to her, so in reality she did exactly what media stars like Madonna,Michael,Prince have always done

The question is if she's going to go with the flow with the maintrends of music lately or totally re-invent her sound...

PerezHilton.com had a top secret operative at Britney's concert at the House Of Blues in San Diego, and here's the rundown on what went down

She took to the stage shortly after 10 PM Pacific!

And she was done by 10:16 PM! And, in true Britney Spears fashion, she lipsynched her way through every single song!!

The Set List
Baby One More Time (Remix)
I'm A Slave For You
Breathe On Me
Do Something
Toxic

A DJ opened the show before Spears hit the stage, wearing a brunette wig with a black headband, sparkling bustier, fur coat, white skirt and knee-high boots.

She was accompanied by four female backup dancers and whipped out some of her old tricks, like chairdancing.

"She looked dope," said our spy.

Britney had barely any interaction with the audience.

The only words she said all night were at the very end when she blurted, "Thanks everyone for coming." Four words. Total.

Maybe she'll be a little more talkative at some of the other upcoming shows!

How did she get through six songs in 16 minutes? It must have been a medley.

And what did she, or better yet, we, learn from this barely-there performance?

Well time 2 enumarate the mistakes she did this time:

1. Wig
2. Clothes (she looks like a cheap hocker
3. Songs "sung"
4. Length of the concert


If I had been Britney advisor:

1. Show her shaved head
2. Some new tunes
3. More electro version of her songs
4. At least 35 minutes of show
5. Black clothes...or 60's vintage french movie inspired clothes
6. Male dancers
7. Live vocals...

Britney gives comeback concert at Calif. club
Mystery show at House of Blues believed to be first public concert appearance in nearly three years
By ALLISON HOFFMAN
Associated Press Writer
Originally published May 2, 2007
SAN DIEGO // Britney Spears strutted her way back to center stage with a short, sexy set at the House of Blues believed to be her first public concert appearance in nearly three years.

The erstwhile pop star, more recently derided as a pop tart for her highly public forays into midnight carousing, appeared to be back in top form.





The 25-year-old mother of two went onstage late Tuesday wearing nothing more than knee-high go-go boots with a short white skirt and a sparkly pink bra top that showed off her belly button ring -- and no evidence of the weight gain that landed her on celebrity tabloid covers last year. A long brown wig completed the outfit, covering the head she shaved in February.

She launched a short set with her classic "...Baby One More Time," using a cafe chair as a burlesque prop while she pranced around the small club stage backed up by four dancers.

"She's so good!" yelled San Diego hairstylist Ally Murray, 29, as Spears showed off her aerobic choreography.

Spears sped through the songs -- all standards from her earlier albums -- wrapping up after less than 15 minutes. She gave a shy goodbye before an old Madonna song came on over the sound system. "Thanks everyone for coming," she told the packed club.

The comeback didn't hit a high note for everyone, some of whom paid upward of $125 a ticket.

"It looked like she lip-synched her way through the whole thing," said a disappointed Morgan Segall, 20, who flew in from San Francisco for the night.

The performance, under heavy club security, was shrouded in mystery. The club marquee advertised a show by "The M&Ms," and it wasn't until an hour after the doors opened that a disc jockey mentioned Spears' name, prompting shrieks from girls jammed in front of the stage.

Rumors of a Spears show had spread on the Internet and via local radio stations late last week, prompting a run on tickets by die-hard fans.

Spears' last concert tour ended in summer 2004. Earlier this year, she told fans she hoped for career comeback.

"I look forward to coming back this year bigger and better than ever," Spears wrote on her Web site in January, also noting she'd "been far from perfect."

"Whatever, we love her," said Raul Flores, 22, who waved a foam placard of his favorite pop star at the club exit. "She's amazing."

In March, Spears completed a stint at a luxury Malibu rehabilitation treatment facility after a series of run-ins with the paparazzi that included a stop at a San Fernando Valley hair salon, where she was caught on video shearing her own locks. Other photographs splashed across the Internet appeared to reveal Spears went out partying wearing nothing underneath her short skirts.

She was seen going out with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan after filing for divorce from aspiring rapper Kevin Federline last November, just two months after giving birth to their second child, Jayden James. The pair also have an older son, Sean Preston, now 20 months.

The two reached a divorce settlement in March.

At one point in the show, Spears and her posse played at taunting a male dancer who, dressed in a natty gray suit, looked vaguely like Federline.

"The M&Ms" had two other concerts scheduled at House of Blues venues in Southern California -- one in Anaheim on Wednesday and the other Thursday in West Hollywood -- according to the club's Web site.

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

I like how everyone has said that she lip-synced the whole performance and that the only good thing they can say about it was, "She looked great." confused Of course she looks good, if I paid as much money on a personal trainer as some of these celebrities shell out, I'd be slammin' hot too. Take away her appearance and what good is she?.....exactly, not much. Nothing new to see here folks, let's move it along. lol

Also waiting for her to rock the Mr. Clean dome, especially since she said that she shaved her head to honor her aunt who had died of cancer. Yeah, okay rolleyes
Of course she'll make a big comeback, because if people are stupid enough to pay over $100 for a 15 minute performance, than she has nothing to worry about because these "special" (ed) individuals will shell out money on anything she does. She's set. nod

For $125 show,...I want pyrotechnics, multi-colored stage lights circling the stage, and at least a fog machine. I don't want to see a high school cafeteria floor with an old crumbled up curtain in the background. This looks like its "Talent Show Night at Roseville High"

This is a clear sign that your musical career is over! It's time to accept being a tabloid celebrity queen. It is your destiny!

Considering people were talking about her being crazy/suicidal a very short while ago, it's good to see her doing something.

Ok cheap trash look was probably not the comeback angle to go for but she needs to get back to something that makes her feel good. Go Britney!
