Allison's Wonderland

Well it's the first of May, and what better way to start off the month then with a concert? Jason Derulo was coming to town! I told myself I wasn't going to go, but since it was just 20 bucks and only 15 minutes away, I said why not? I had to go to this one, because it is not often this part of Virginia sees a good concert. So we went. I met up with My sister and her friends Lauren, Kali, Jacquelynn and Rachel. We walk into the venue (a college gym) and see some of the weirdest people there. Like seriously weird. Not to be rude, but, the concert goers were a mixture of Ghetto fabulous, redneck and white trash. Not exactly sure where we fit in with those categories, but it was just funny to look at. The opener was pretty good. Not something I’d go out and buy, but pretty decent considering the venue and the kind of concert it was. His name was Jerry Evans and Kali and I broke it down on one of the songs that he sang. The transition to Derulo took so freakin long. We were up towards the front but the whole time it was like war to keep our spots. We were packed in tight next to each other and there were these really obnoxious people that kept being like excuse me excuse me in order to move up. One line cutter totally thought he had me, but I pressed up against the person in front of me and they were only able to get a leg through. SUCCESS!! It was kinda fun, but annoying REAl fast. Then this one Mom and her daughter were like all over each other. They seriously had to be high on something or strung out on coke. The guy next to us was making fun of them cause they were seriously making out with one another. It was extremely odd. Then the girl walks up to Sista and says, “Do you want to dance.” All sexy like. And Kelsey just gave her the Kelsey look of death which translates, “Are you seriously talking to me right now? Drop dead.” That kind of a face. Then she asks Kelsey if she’s scared and then moves out into the crowd. Weird. Like I said, very interesting people in that place. Jason was really good. His back up dancers were pretty good as well. One of the best parts was when he ripped his shirt off. Of course… The last song of the night was “In My Head” which is my favorite. He also did a Michael Jackson number that was fun to watch. One of the songs he pulled a girl up onstage and was all over her! She looked so uncomfortable and her boyfriend was standing in the crowd. It looked like he was going to kiss her and make out. We all felt a little awkward and were glad we didn’t volunteer for the job. Not sure if the concert was worth $20 bucks but it was fun to hang out with Sista for the evening!
