there are alot of breaks in there i would assume alot of dates are still under negotions

Yeah Minneapolis!!!

If she comes to Chicago I think I might go.

I wanna see if the meds she's on really work.

rushing07 said:

No Detroit....she is influenced by Madonna!

Those dates will either be in May or July, it depends on the PCD schedule. PCD has 43 dates to play in the uk,germany,brazil,australia beginning in January. Its possible Britney will take them for a eurpoean leg also.

Is this confirmed?

Well she does have a show at the Uniondale United States Nassau Coliseum
in Long Island

I remember as a kid Prince did about 5 nights there for the Purple Rain Tour but no Madison Square Garden

I hate going to Nassau Coliseum

Her album has some horrible reviews i saw some with 1 and 2 stars

'Circus' Is Pretty Much Cotton Candy

By Chris Richards
Special to The Washington Post
Tuesday, December 2, 2008; Page C01

Britney Spears seems to have handled 2008 relatively well. Number of scalps shorn: zero. Number of babies bobbled: zero. Number of albums made: one. It's called "Circus," her sixth, and it offers a slew of bad-girl club tunes garnished with flecks of remorse.

Is it too little, too late? Last year, in the throes of the singer's galactically publicized meltdown, fans were hoping for a glimpse of self-reflection from their embattled sweetheart. Instead, Spears delivered "Blackout," a wonderfully brainless pop slab that felt as defiant as it was exuberant. (It was also her poorest-selling CD, indicating that controversy plays better on TMZ than on iTunes.)

With its synth-drenched tales of naughty Saturday nights, "Circus" largely echoes "Blackout." In addition, though, Spears emerges from her media bender hoping to forget the past ("Out From Under"), pining for her kids ("My Baby") and trying to silence the pesky headache that comes throbbing the morning after ("Blur") -- all flimsy tunes that feel more trite than contrite.

The main attraction of Brit's "Circus"? The incredible shrinking vocal hook! Accusatory lead single "Womanizer" offers a compact, one-word refrain that bounces off the walls of the skull like a paddleball. "Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer," she prattles on, waving her finger over laserlike synthesizers with a hook so catchy and insistent, it's almost bullying.

"Unusual You," the album's other gem, couldn't be more different. It's a mesmeric love song produced by Bloodshy & Avant, the Swedish duo responsible for Spears's 2003 monster hit "Toxic." Here, the pair continue to nudge the singer into unexpected corners, reimagining her thinning voice as a spectral coo.

Spears would have been wise to have these dudes oversee the entire project, but instead opts for a mishmash of B-, C- and D-list producers who end up putting "Circus" 10 steps behind the Katy Perrys and Lady Gagas of the world. In an attempt to catch up, Spears rattles off the misbehavior anthems -- songs whose lyrics are good for a giggle at best.

"Mmm Papi" tries to replicate the strutting come-ons of "Toxic," but quickly goes rancid as Spears indulges in some of the most cloying singing of her career. For the song's finale, she slips into a mock accent of unknown origin to announce: "I'm mami, and that makes you papi, and that makes us lovey." This moment feels like pulling your own teeth and then scraping those teeth against a chalkboard.

Then again, if this fallen Mouseketeer can limit her train wrecks to the vocal booth, things are certainly looking up.

At least the Pussycat Dolls will warm the crowd up for some lip syncing.

It's almost as if they were asking, "what's worse than Britney's lip syncing?"...who has less credibility...PCD! Sign 'em up and call the bank!"

They all deserves each other. No talent at all. It freaks me out why anyone would pay to see these broads. I'm baffled.

Empress said:

It would be fine with me if they billed it and said "come see the Britney Spears dance troupe". But to bill this as a concert or as singers is an insult to humanity.

Mars23 said:

I totally agree. Even then, I wouldn't waste my time or money.

How much is witnessing a potential breakdown worth? When it happens, expect a pay per view.

asg said:

And every bad review has contradicted themselves. They all site themselves as having very favorable views of "blackout" and NONE of these reviews liked that album either, so they are all just a bunch of media starved "lets bash the bitch" type of phonys. People should use reviews for what they are worth, wiping their ass.

banks said:

In the Zone package...cause people remember that album!

ehuffnsd said:

so are you going??

banks said:

flying from san diego to london would be pretty pricy right now. i think i'm going to do LA or the Pond.

Is Britney playing the Bald-Headed Lady?

asg said:

So?

Considering her recent performances, I won't be picking up tix for this.

ehuffnsd said:

Haha! I didn't specifically mean London, That was left in the post by accident.

It'll probably be a good show. She's seems to be really entertaining live

thekidsgirl said:

when she's on stage.

The Onyx Hotel was 90mins and she was on stage for 45mins the rest of the time was filled with this...



with the Dream Within A Dream Tour and Onyx Hotel there too many pointless interludes that really killed the flow of the show



the lypsyncing doesn't bother me but the videos get on my nerves!

through stuff like this make up for it

[Edited 12/2/08 21:35pm]

yeah! who pays that much money to stand and stare at the jumbotron for most of the show
