Who should I see for Valentine's Day?

I've never seen either but like both.

Or should I see neither...

Easy: Anita

I was thinking Anita might put me to sleep but Marc might make me want to dance but since it's V-Day he may have me snoozing too.

But the live music behind Anita should be nice.

I love her voice though. I've never seen her live, but a lot of these types of "old school" concerts tend to be a lot of fun because of the crowd's nostalgia.

SCNDLS said:

Yeah. I was surprised to see there weren't many shows in the area on that day or at least shows I'm interested in.

Ironically, Ne-yo is gonna be in Dallas on Feb. 15th with Musiq Soulchild and Jazmine Sullivan. Although I have NO desire to see Neyo, I wouldn't mind seeing Musiq. Jazmine I saw with Maxwell in Nov, she was surprisingly VERY good live. I need to see if I can come up on some free tix.

I was not an Anita fan until I saw her live.

oooh...I might had just chose Anita just because of her legacy...but Marc might be more EXCITING...I would go see Marc to be honest.

SCNDLS said:

U actually want 2 see Musiq?

Ne-yo is a no-no. I am not a fan. Not feeling Jazmine.


I do think Marc would be exciting! Once I hear some Latin percussion it's over.

But I think I'm leaning towards Anita just based on the piano in Giving You the Best That I've Got. If ever a slow song needed an extended mix that would be it.

Never seen him. So I wanna see what he's capable of. How is he?

Scale of 1 - 10.

3.

JackieBlue said:

Classic!

Graycap23 said:

Ooooooh, lawd! Okay, I'll go if it's free. I have a friend that works for Ne-yo so I'ma get a hook up if I go.

Take some ear plugs.

If you want something more laid back Anita is your person.But you know Marc Anthony has a lot more mid-tempo/faster tracks that Anita Baker.And if he's doing any Hector Lavoe stuff you know u will be out your seat dancing lol

She is the ONLY artist that I've ever went out and purchased their entire catalogue the day after seeing them live.

I saw Marc Anthony in concert back in 2002.This was when he had that excellent 'Mended' CD,so much of the setlist came from that album.It was a fun,vibrant show.

Graycap23 said:

Me, too.

Graycap23 said:

Okay, I'm ordering Anita tickets now.

Thanks guys!

Have fun!

Rent these DVDs and decide.

I would personally pick Anita. That's mainly because I'm a bigger fan of hers. I like Marc, but I don't know if I could look at his face for 2 hours.

SCNDLS said:

I was contemplating on going to that show.

I've seen Musiq live and he SUX....ROYALLY!!! He is definitely a studio performer. He was all out of tune. Maybe it was the venue (it was at the Granada). I want to see Ne-Yo. I think he is a good performer and would like to see how he does with an entire show. I would also like to see Jazmine. She has a great voice, but her album is just "ok" to me.

SCNDLS said:

FREE is always good!

Anita Baker, top of the food chain!

What are the price differences?

VinnyM27 said:

Anita: $44.50 - $129.50 (seems like you still pay $129 to sit in mezzanine!)

Marc: $79.50 - $154.50

JackieBlue said:

So Anita is cheaper....and you're still asking!
