Pink in Adelaide - 2009
Posted: Wed May 27, 2009 1:14 amThose who know me will attest that my music taste is somewhat...old. When I heard that Pink was coming to Adelaide, though, was curious to see a performer I'd heard great reports about, with their stageshow.
Have just come home from the first of her Adelaide concerts and can say with absolute honesty that this is the single best show I have ever seen in over 30 years of attending concerts. Packed to capacity, the crowd was at full throttle throughout, led by one of the most amazing, energetic, crowd pleasing performers imaginable. Am incredible stage show, led by a posse of extremely fit and agile dancers, with parts atop trapezes, Pink led from the front with a brilliant display of all of the hits (except, for some odd reason, "Stupid Girls"??) and had the crowd in her palm throughout. Hard to describe just how intricate the stage setting itself was at times, but when she is atop a trapeze, spinning around as she sings, and then flying through the air on it...wow. This is just amazing stuff and I'm pretty hard to impress in these sorts of things.
For all other acts coming here this year, the title for best concert in 2009 is over, IMHO. All others are merely dancing for second place. This is stunning. Beg, borrow, get a ticket somehow. I've never seen anything like this ever. Absolutely mindbogglingly brilliant.
