SPICE GIRLS.

TD Banknorth Garden, Boston, Ma. January 30th, 2008.

!!!!!!!

I haven't seen the Spice Girls since I was 7 years old. I've been DREAMING about this night for years!

Karyn, Kelley, Meridith, Jessie and I were supposed to leave by 5pm, but Kelley took forever and we didn't leave until 6pm. We had all gone out and bought new outfits just for tonight... sparkly/see-through/sequined dresses or shirts... granted I wore a plain black dress and Karyn wore a grey jacket. Still.

We had a few errands to run first, but we got to the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston around 7:15. I've never been to a concert where every single person is a girl. There were almost no children there, which was surprising. It was all girls my age.

We had the first row of the balcony. So we were super high up, but we were right in the front so we had an awesome view. You could see behind the stage. It was great.

The show started at 8:10pm. There was no opening band. It was intense! They opened with Spice Up Your Life, followed by:

Recap of Spice Up Your Life

There's a few I'm leaving out I think.

They put on a fantastic show. Everyone SCREAMED whenever Victoria sang or was shown on the TV screens. They all have great voices, the best being Mel C. Emma's voice seemed really high pitched and a bit strange. The stage was neat. Their costumes were SOOO fucking sparkly!

It's not until I watched my videos did I realize they lipsynched a lot of songs. Just little parts here and there (and mostly Victoria) but yeah.

Right before the show started, I saw a few women walking some children and a freaking newborn right up to the front of the stage to sit. And a bunch of girls were taking pictures of them. And throughout the show, Victoria, Emma and Mel B would go over to the front and bend down and wave. So all their little babies were in the front! It was adorable. I only saw one of Victoria's kids, one of Mel B's.. and I'm not sure who the baby belonged to.

Everything was great about the show except for the very very end, which was like, a recap of Spice Up Your Life where they dance and play around on stage. Just as these huge canons set off confetti, all the music just STOPPED. And the girls just kept singing and dancing with their 20 backup dancers.. and everyone's like.. what? So that sucked, I filmed it. Which wasn't exactly the BEST way to end the show, but shit happens.

So basically... since we all got dressed up for it, we camwhored massively before we left. Well, I forced them to. It.. was basically all me. As you can see:
