Thousands of screaming girls, homemade shirts and signs. What do this things have in common? This was the scene at the Justin Bieber Concert, July 14, 2010. At 7pm, the experience began. The Stunners came out and showed their stuff. Although many don’t know of this girl band, they rocked the house. Up next was Jessica Jarrell. She brought great energy to the crowd and got everybody ready for what was coming, Sean Kingston. Sean did a great job and really seemed to interact well with the audience. He was definitely my favorite opening act. He did a great job on stage and he had a surprise no one saw coming. About half way into his performance he brought out an artist he has signed to his record, no one expected Iyaz to come out. He shocked the crowd and everyone was ecstatic! He preformed some of his songs and then Sean was back to finish off his turn on the stage. And then the countdown began. During the set change everyone was anxious and ready to see their idol, role model, son-in-law, husband, boyfriend, Justin Bieber. Five, four, three, two, one, The screaming really kicked up. Justin had wonderful energy. He really kept everyone on their feet. He surprised girls by throwing some of his personal belongings into the crowd, people went crazy! He made it feel as if he was just singing to you, with no one else in the arena just you and him, and his wonderful hair. He seemed to be able to make a real connection with his fans, he knew how to captivate them with song and dance. By far, one of the crowds, and mine, favorite songs were ”Never Let You Go” and “Favorite Girl”. Here was the first time he used a type of chair that was suspended in the air and made him fly over his audience. Throughout the whole concert, Justin was always complimenting his fans telling them that they are beautiful and they look even more gorgeous in person. He always kept the energy flowing during the show, and there was never a dull moment. With this tour, Justin is proving he is a true performer. With the singing, dancing, and all the compliments he had a wonderful show. If I had to pick the best part of the show, I probably couldn’t. The experience as a whole cannot be divided up into my least and most favorite, that’s how good the show was. I have been to many concerts, and this, by far, is the best one I have ever gone to. I would highly recommend this show to any people who doubt Justin’s abilities and talents as an artist. With this show i think Justin has proved all his haters wrong. And showed his fans why they love him, not just for his amazingly good looks, but also for his touching music. I would like to thank Justin Bieber for letting his fans go into his world with this tour, and the Rose Quarter for giving me the wonderful opportunity to go to his concert. Thank You!
