peace
the show in Brussels Monday and the show in Paris Tuesday were disasters, she was late and not focused on giving a great show,
but the backlash and the push back which ensued seemed to have worked;
she was great Wednesday in Paris, yours truly was in the building and I can attest to that
it is to be noticed that she only performed alternate versions of the songs we all came to love 20 years ago
yes, that will bother you especially on the most known tracks and the singles
however after the first two songs, Lost Ones and Ex-Factor, I was able to relax, forget about the album and fully immerse into the performance
it was worth the wait as the show also started a bit later than planned even on Wednesday
about the alternate versions of the songs, some were actually better than the original versions especially When It Hurts So Bad and Forgive Them Father
btw she is barred legally to perform the original versions of the album's tracks and to use the name Lauryn Hill (even if she pretends otherwise), that's why she performs as Ms. Lauryn Hill
I didn't know she had 6 kids! they are all on tour with her, she brought some of them on stage at the end of the concert
I was pissed at her before going to the Wednesday's concert because I feared it would be as bad as Tuesday, I ended up leaving with a smile
there was a lot of emotion in the arena Wednesday at the end of the concert, the lady sitting next to me which I never met before taking my seat kept clutching my arm and sobbing as soon as she appeared and stage and said "It's funny how money changed the situation"
at the end of the day, she is just a black woman trying to find her way and escape the dark clouds,
as long as she respects her audience, she will be alright in my book
as far as I've heard the concert in Glasgow seemed to have went fine also, may she keeps it that way
peace
