JAM/SUPAFEST

Hey all

So as I mentioned on Wednesday’s post, Nelly and I went to Supafest with our friends.


 The line up for Supafest was:


Eve
Jay Sean
Sean Paul
Pitbull
Kelly Rowland
Akon


A quick review probably wouldn’t mean much to you, but I am going to give you one anyway


Eve – was ok, just average if you ask me. And I hated that all her songs were being cut short, didn’t allow me to get in the mood.


Jay Sean – another average performer. And only sang two songs, was pointless timing wise.


Sean Paul – OWNED IT! I mean I would have gone just for him, he was so good. And he has so many songs that I just LOVE. So, for most of the time that he was on I was dancing and jumping and having an all round good time :) ahhh, I still can’t believe I have seen him live. He sounded exactly the same. Even though our spots didn’t have the best hearing!


Pitbull - another really good one. He is an AMAZING!!!! Dancer! Seriously, I would go to his concert just to watch him dance. And he knows how to work the crowd! And of course we all went “Krazy” to his music.


Kelly Rowland – other than the fact that she could only sing like two of her own songs she was amazing. I loved he costume, and I am pretty sure it is Armani, but I am not for sure so please do not take my word for it!! my only problem with her was that she was singing Destiny’s Child music, when I really wanted her to come out of that shell. I don’t think Beyonce would sing Destiny’s Child at a concert! But I loved when she sang Work, Dilemma and When Love Takes over. And did I mention how good she looked? A-FREAKIN-MAZING!


Akon – very much about the show, mister Akon is. He had the crowd screaming for his attention almost the whole night. And you know what he was worth it. He sounds so good too. (Though I do have a suspicion about him Lip-syncing. Shame.) There were short videos, and a lot of crowd work. And I believe that he also provided us with the most to talk about when singing Beautiful (dedicated to us Melbournians) he decided to crowd surf and then nearly cried when the crowd wouldn’t let go of him! One girl like nearly broke his neck. And when he tried to make his way back to the stage people wouldn’t let him go, and so he had to stop the music and tell them all to move and to “DO NOT PULL DOWN MY UNDIES” which was hilarious!


Overall a good night, even though there was some rainfall, and we didn’t have the best spots, and we couldn’t hear the DJ and there were wayyyy too many underage people there. LOL. I just think it says something that despite all that we were still able to have a good time!


So here are the photos you are looking for in this post :P

GoodVibrationsFestival

Hey Ya'll!
after many months of always saying.."yeah we will so go to that festival.."  "..we're so gonna see them.."  "..let's buy tickets next week..."

We FINALLY went to a festival!! which was the Good Vibrations Festival and it was A-Mazing!
we saw SO many awesome artists in one day!
on our way to the festival we guessed the last bit of our trip..here we were waiting for the tram that could have taken us there...but we decided to be safe and walk it there.
(*Safe:..let me tell you walking through Flemington is not really safe lol)

As soon as we arrived we couldn't wait to get some food!that burger ruined my day and stuffed up with my poor tummy =[

GYM CLASS HEROES!!!pretty mad

OH BUSTA was soooo gooood!!!!!unfortunately i missed out on 'Touch It' which I know is the best song....

 
The Gossip was good too..she sounds the same live...her voice is a REAL voice!not like those other srtists these days.....

 
Connie & Nelly waiting for the killers to jump on stage

 
we got to see the Sunset while waiting for the Killers, great Pic Connie =]

 
Crowd Surfer

Connie Says:
This was an EPIC day! One of those things I honestly thought I would never actually experience. And when i was there all I could think was 'Is this really me at a music festival?'
Every single artist that I saw was great live. You know you always hear of those people who sound so different from the recording, but absolutely everyone that we saw was exactly the same.
So many of these artists have such powerful voices, and performance wise they would all get an A+ in my class.
I dont know who I would say was my favourite, I mean I want to go with the Killers, but then I would be taking away from so many other great musicians.
Kid Cudi was FANTASTIC! The Gossip was AMAZING! Everyone was just so good.
I think it is impossible to chose someone you like more than others when so many were that good.
And from having been once, I can tell you I would recommend to anyone, if you are thinking of going to a music festival, stop thinking and start going!
Nelly and I have already bought tickets to go to Jam Fest as well now. This one experience has led to another!
JamFest sounds like a must go to Festival, it will have Seam Paul, Pitbull, Eve, Kelly Rowland, Akon, Jay Sean!! This is another sound I really love, and I can already tell that I will have the time of my life!

Let us know if you are heading to JamFest! and what your thoughts on Music Festivals are.
We love to hear from you guys, so come on lets have it!


Laters People xx
ps. I will try and upload more pics from Good Vibes, and try to add a video of this hilarious dancing man!
