the 1st opening act was a woman named KATY SHOTTER. WOW!!!!! what a voice. she was excellent. look for her!!!!! KatyShotter.com

then came on the amazing Robin Thicke!!! need i say more? his performance made me moist.

and WOMEN...please be considerate of men in the audience. when you scream for him or Beyoncé's male dancers..please do so at a VERY LOW decible.


so yeah, i went to see Ms. Beyoncé in concert. i must say i was more impressed than i thought i would be and less impressed on a couple segments. there were no malfunctions or fuck ups on this show. there was a slight out of sync moment when she was performing "Flaws and All". but it was quick..and i'm not sure how many people actually caught it. but there were only a couple spots where she did some lip syncing. the girl has a phenomenal voice. and her beauty IMO is undeniable. and with all the dancing, costume changes, i don't mind a little help from a backing track. she delivered a brilliant show!!

it came across to me as very Vegas Showgirl type of show. the dancers were fantastic and the band was incredible. she definitely gave us our money's worth. she included all the big Destiny's Child numbers in a long-ass medley. one or two DC songs she did full out. of course ALL her, own hits. and even did a bit of "If I Was Your Girlfriend". i've liked Beyoncé as much as the next person..maybe a bit more. however after this show, i may become a die hard fan. lol. she tore that stage up!!! if you have an opportunity to see this woman's show..do it!! i was dancing all night. and i'm glad i decided to go. i had a lot of fun.



keep on keepin' on Ms. Beyoncé!!

Thanks for the report CHICO-suave.

And for reminding me it's time to try and call in a few favors before she hits L.A....

Yeah... caught the MSG performance here in NYC... It wasn't a bad way to spend the night but i felt like the show was missing something... GLAD YOU ENJOYED IT

NO and NEVER... i rather wait until it comes on DVD for 5 dollars.. beyonce tries to hard....

I was at the Toronto show and she was AMAZING! Even better than I had expected! She sounded great live and is an all around good performer. I also caught the if i was your girlfriend snippet and went nuts

I'm going to the LA show this Sunday @ The Staples Center. Supposedly, she's taping the DVD that night.

Thanks for the review. It sounds like Beyonce has come a long way since the last time I saw her on stage.

I can't wait to see the live dvd with her singing "Flaws and All" because that clip on You Tube doesn't do it justice at all...

i went to the concert last month in DC. it was a great show. the set was beautiful and her male dancers were oh so lovely to look at. thanks for the eye candy, beyonce.

robin was better than i expected.

I saw her show when she came to Philly on aug 10th And i have to agree the show was Incredible. I wasnt really a big Beyonce Fan But I took My Little Sister To the show as a graduation Present. And I Can Definetly Say that I am A big fan now. She sang If I Was You Girlfriend there to And A little Bit Of Jill Scott's He Love's Me, And she Tore it Up! Patti Labelle And Tyra Banks were Also there At the show Sitting with Beyonce's Parents. I Hope they put it on dvd Cause I gonna be the first in line to buy it!

I saw her in Madrid last May and even though I am not a fan,
I had a lot of fun. She´s a great entertainer.

She needs better writers though

I didnt get to see her in NYC, mainly because i dont like large shows like Madison Square Garden, escpecially when its an artist i really wanna see, im sure we know what im talking about, plus i had just bought tickets to various other shows. This week i saw Hilary at Radio City and also Jennifer Lopez at Roseland. But i really would love to see Beyonce in a smaller setting like that, cant wait for the dvd, I know people dont dig her, but how the hell can you not love this.....

sounds like it was a good show Chico
I was gonna go with my best bud to her DC show, unitl we both realized that we couldn't afford it!

My other close buddy went though, and actually got to meet Beyonce!


she was soooo freaking out

I went to see her in Manchester in June on this tour, it was amazing! Had realy good seats. Better than I even expected. Her first tour (on dvd) was alright but not great. Saw her when Destiny's Child first came to Manchester (when they weren't that successful - was just before they became masssive) - and she they were good but didn't amaze me. But by the time she toured with this album she has found herself as a performer. She had the crowd in the palm of her hand from the moment she stepped on stage until the moment she finished. I liked how she pointed people out in the audience (i.e. I see you in the yellow top, I see you with your banner - thank you, I can see you right at the top in the white dress etc) during Irreplaceable. Jay-Z did this on his tour last year when I saw him at the same venue, so no guesses on how she came up with this idea, but it was a really nice touch and must have made certain peoples nights (and she did it better than her other half). Check out some of my pictures:


Start of the show


Beautiful Liar


Get Me Bodied


Destiny's Child Medley


Ring The Alarm


Think this was from Listen, not 100% though


Towards the end of the show

when is the poor thing going to let real designers do her clothes?

My thoughts exactly.

I would like to know if she altered the part in her show where she fell the down the stairs. Dont tell me she still goes down those stairs in that cape.
