Concert Junkie

My name is Jaclyne, and I have an addiction...

tis true, no joke, I am a concert-aholic, I will pretty much go to anything and everything if I have the available funds and time. I've been to bands like Gob, and Matt Good, and I've seen Canadian popstar winners Velvet Empire, 50's greats like Little Anthony and the Imperials...Bowser from Sha na na. I went to BSB and New Kids last year! haha yes I even laugh at myself, but I must say Natasha Bedingfeild and Lady Gaga were great openers for NKOTB. I've been to George Strait, Toby Keith, Keith Urban and Brad Paisley, incredible male performers, and then I have been to Reba, Shania, Carrie Underwood, and the Dixie Chicks, who rock the female country genre. Those are just to name a few. My all-time favorite artist being Terri Clark puts on a fantastic show, she's always full of energy, and is incredibly funny! Dixie Chicks was probably one of the most phenomenal shows I have ever seen, and not far behind was Reba with Kelly Clarkson. I dont even think I could describe the feeling I had sitting there, it was just incredible, vocally amazing, and these woman have such a large presence to them. Dixie Chicks got a random standing ovation from the crowd for Not Ready To Make Nice, cheers the whole way through and for many minutes afterward. One of the most surreal concerts I have been to, one that took me back about 10 years, and seriously turned me back in to a screaming 13 year old again, was the Spice Girls Reunion. WOW the loudest crowd, craziest merchandise tables line ups, and the outfits worn by fans looked like they came right out of the closests of 1998 Spice Girls #1 fan. I felt like I was part of the craze that happened between 1996-1998, the whirlwind of Spice World, it was insane. There were a few artists on my 'must see' list, Terri of course-check, Reba-check, Dixie Chicks-check, Shania-check, Spice Girls-check(never thought I would ever get to cross them off), Backstreet Boys-check(more so wish I could have checked them back when I was a crazed fan, but at least I got too), and the other on the list was No Doubt...they faded away about 5 years ago while Gwen stepped out on her own, never actually thought they would get back together, and my friend knew I had always wanted to see them so she took me to see Gwen Stefani, wicked cool, so i considered that a partial 'check'. But as of July 15 2009 I will actually be able to check them off!!!!! HELLA GOOD!! OH and rewind to 1998, a little blonde girl stepped in to the music scene and took it by storm, and everyone got caught up in her stories, her music videos were fun, and performances on MTV and much music made us wish we could witness it first hand...now once again, as I did with Spice Girls, BSB, NKOTB, and will be with No Doubt Im getting that chance to go back and experiance it...less then a month and Im off the the CIRCUS! :)
Now Celine just has to make another round...
