Glow In The Dark Tour
Glow in the Dark tour was def something different. Especially if your use to your regular DJ and a mic hip hop show. We all knew going into this concert that it was not going to be that way. People had and still have perceived notions of how they thought or think the show is going to be. I'm going to tell you right now just throw that out of your brain and get ready to just exist. That's simply what i did at the show in MSG Tuesday May 13, 2008 . I simply existed , I was there that night i was hyped and nonetheless i was entertained. Kanye is an innovator , confident yes , self conscious yes. In other words he's HUMAN. The biggest mistakes humans make is that they always tend to conform one way or another. Without realizing it we conform to almost everything in our lives. I wont get into much detail , but next time you are making a decision whether its the simplest decision or not, think about every other possible way that exists to do what you are doing. Then think about the ones you cant even come up with. The mind is a tender and fragile thing. Putting that into the subject i feel Mr.West conquered the night. His performance was very well conceived , very well put. The music , the sound . You can see how much thought was put into creating this world of enchantment. The music blew me away the most.Remastering the songs and switching it up was brilliant my ears were in heaven and my eyes were right there along with it. I definitely needed some time to soak it all in. I didn't say much after the show to certain friends i just thought about it alot. I really just let my mind wander and really process things. Maybe I'm crazy , maybe I'm a maniac, or maybe i just simply appreciate this man as an artist so much that i felt it was only necessary to have myself revisit the show in my head before talking about it. Yea the band was not directly on the stage but more hidden, yes Lupe's set was short even i got upset at one point , But then i thought about it . This tour was not about Lupe, n.e.r.d, or Rhianna, nor the band. This was Kanye West headlining his own tour. Lupe was incredible, Nerd Rocked the house , And Rhianna who i expected not to really be impressed by I admit i was. And Ye really came through with his performance. He put his heart and soul into it. The three acts delivered and the Main Act just raised the bar for tour performances to come. I am anxious to see what he comes up with next tour.
