This is one group that knows how to rock the house!
Jump Around Now
Big Girls Don't Cry
Let's Get it Started
My Hump
The Now Generation
All these hits and more were present at the 1 hour and about 30 min concert last night (2/20/2010).
After the dancer's robotic routine, slow music started and Fergie was the first of the group to enter. She was surrounded in a waist high white cloud of fog that appeared to carry her to center stage. There, the fog mystically rose and danced around her while graphic of cool blues and whites lit up background screens. The rest of the Peas joined her from ramps on each side of the stage, dressed in black with large silvery sequences below their knees. It wasn't until the music quicken and the fog subsided that what appeared to be a full length silver gown on Fergie, was a very sexy, futuristic styled mini skirt - simply divine. Here, planetary space graphics and stage lights suddenly changed to warm yellows, oranges, and reds, with the crowds going wild.
It was truly a night of stage magic done right by a highly professional band and crew. Everything was well rehearsed and on point. Even the background dancers, with their lavished and interesting costumes, were a show to themselves. Hats off to you Peas. Very Impressive!
As I scanned the arena at different times during the concert, the highly mixed audience of males and females from many nationalities were all dancing, singing and having a great time. If I were in a group, I'd certainly want it to have the Pea appeal. I remember hoping the arena had been well built because even the concert walls and floors near me were vibrating - but certainly not as much as Metallica had them throbbing.
While, there were a few mishaps involving security and police with people who couldn't hold their alcohol, and women breaking the law by sneaking (so they thought) into men restrooms to avoid the line at their's, the crowd for the most part, for what I could see, was well behaved. Afterwards, I was invited to the nearby 80s, The Breakfast Club by two women who'd asked for directions, but I opted for home instead.
Catch more Peas...
See the BEPs in their up and coming concert movie. Watch media for details.
Fergie can be enjoyed in her recent musical film, Nine, while Will.I.Am can be seen as a mutant in the latest of the Xmen (Wolverine Origins) feature films.
