One of my all time favourite albums is 'in search of' by N.E.R.D. I just realised that this album is already more than 13 years old. That's crazy! But I still know every song by heart (yes, I'm a rapper). So when I heard that Pharrell was coming to Antwerp, my Annelies & myself just had to get tickets.
When you put Annelies and me together, you can be sure that we laugh a lot, and mostly about the most stupid things first. I just love that about us. So even the 150 minutes'(!!!) drive over there (including chips, beer (for her), toilet and candy stops) was fun. It felt like a girlie road trip as we used to do when we were younger.
Anyway - the concert. The man made us wait quite a bit (the 33 year old mother, working girl and boring woman in myself was already thinking: damn, when will I be in bed, and I have to get up early, and it's a long drive and it's raining, blabla), but from the moment that he set foot on the stage until the last song finished we shaked our booties, baby. And it felt so good that I even forgot about the long drive home, the early morning alarm clock and the fact that I'm not in my twenties anymore). And oh boy, those dancers, sexy women!
We gave a 100%, just like they did - sort of.... :)
It was a perfect evening and I'm even a bigger fan now, because he played all my favourite songs from my 13 year old cd (yes, cd - I'm that old) and he seemed really down to earth and happy to be there.
I think everybody left the venue with a good feeling.
