for the most part i LOVE working concerts. i guess the technicals are a big part of it.  the venue changes the rules for the night, i like watching the set up and breakdown, checking out & trippin’ out on the tour rider, scoping out the tour passes and of course, the excitement of catching THEE star(s) of the night and other random star gazing.

britney spears was no exception.  even though i don’t care for her music, i was just as excited (maybe even more) to work the 2 nights she came into town.

my observations:

  • our alcohol rules were strict, ID EVERYONE.  i made sure all my cashiers and bartenders understood this. but this didn’t stop rabid underage drinkers from trying.  it also didn’t stop old perves from trying to buy young ones drinks.  we did evict several girls, we don’t fuck around.
  • the mix of fans was funny, cute and questionable.  lots of blondes, gays, young chicks and OLD people!
  • lots of people dressed up. i honestly thought some were part of the show LMAO
  • there were a few catfights but the ones i was amused with were the gay boys pissing off older women.  i had one lady who just kept complaining to me about a couple of gay guys.  she made it a point to say they were gay too lol
  • most of the 2 nights were spent observing the crowd and let me just say that a kindergarten class has a higher IQ than most of the blondes in attendance.  i could not believe some of the questions asked and some of the convos overheard.
  • the stage set up & environment was fabulous.  the pussycat dolls were awesome. the circus acts during intermission were cool. britney lipsynchs, oh well!
  • britney brought in her own popcorn boxes & soda cups so that was pretty cool.  we didn’t have lids so we couldn’t serve them from our stands but i did see them at her souvenir stands for like $2.  they also had masks ($5) and other assorted stuff for cheap.

my sis called me saying she read that kim & khloe kardashian posted on twitter that they pulled up to my work so i ran downstairs hoping to see them and i had to head to the warehouse anyways so when i was leaving i did in fact run into them.  it was so funny.  just giving an example at how powerful (& scary) twitter can be!
