On Tuesday, November 30 2010, I had the displeasure of attending the Usher concert. It had been about 12 years since Usher made his last appearance in Montreal and let me tell you I would not give a hoot if he ever comes to town again. So why do I fall into the abnormal category of not thinking that the Usher concert was "the best concert I have ever seen in my life" as so many teeny boppers have screamed? Here is why...
1. It's a a concert. Generally at concerts the sound that is coming out of the speakers is inferior to what you would hear playing the song off your ipod in the comfort of your home or vehicle. Having said that though, the speakers and sound system used during the performance probably is worth more than I will ever dream to make in my life so I dont think it is too much to ask that sound coming out of them doesn't like a noisy railway station in a construction zone. Was it really necessary to have Usher screaming over the drums, the bass, the guitar and every other instrument being played...It shouldn't take me until the end of the song to figure out what the heck song he was yelling in my ear.
2. I could have been in a strip club or a porn video and would not have known the difference. Ok sure, Usher is a greater dancer and I did appreciate the Michael Jackson moonwalk, but I didn't realize he had a doctorate in pretending to have sex on stage. At least he has a new career lined up.
3. Usher, please stop stripping every two seconds and making it seem like it is the first time you ever take your shirt off in public. We all know what an ab looks like, thanks.
4. Trez Songz, the opening act sounded 65 million times better than you. Now that has to say something.
5. Your noisey sex show cost me $100. I'd appreciate a refund.
Ohh ohh ohhh OMG you're not worth my money.
You should have spent that $100 on a Christmas present...for me.
