I'm going on Sunday! Yyyaaasss. So excited. :wub:

 

I really hope the crowd scream "WHO IS IT?" though :( (it's in LDN so surely?)

If the crowd is lit, you'll be fine. It's just from the experience I had, having someone with me really helped. Shouting out "who is it?!" at the top of my voice only for no one to join in was really embarrassing and it's only because I had someone who was as excited and as willing to make a fool out of themselves as me that I felt I could enjoy the rest of the concert.

(this post contains setlist spoilers so please beware if you're avoiding them!)

 

I went to both the Friday and Saturday dates and both were absolutely sensational. Friday night I was sat on level 4 (so right at the top) and Saturday I was on the floor, only a matter of rows away from the b-stage!! The atmosphere pushed tonight ahead for me with the seats (plus company in the form of Jáhq) but both nights were so much fun. First time I've ever done two nights of the same tour but it was so worthwhile.

 

Pitbull was such a great opener. Perhaps one of the best I've seen, certainly in terms of the response from the crowd. Every song he did was a banger and a well-known hit (bar one that samples We No Speak Americano that he only did at Saturday's show... an odd choice over songs like Time of Our Lives or Wild Wild Love for example). Songs like Feel This Moment went down brilliantly as did the 1-2 punch of his final two tracks - Timber and Give Me Everything :wub: plus the features medley including On the Floor!!!

 

It's been a dream of mine for ages to see Britney live and finally the time came, and she was everything I'd hoped for and more. Work Bitch was an incredible opener, instantly getting everyone in the mood and the tempo didn't slow down at any point. My particular highlights were Piece of Me, Gimme More and If U Seek Amy, but it was the final four tracks that REALLY delivered. Toxic, Stronger, Crazy and Till the World Ends. All absolutely sensational. Toxic and Crazy are long-time favourites of mine, while Stronger has only been creeping up recently. TTWE has never been a HUGE favourite though (I always liked it but never considered it quintessential Britney) so I've done a huge U-turn on it now. Both nights were brilliant for the "who is it?" chants too :wub: I didn't know when Gimme More was in the setlist on Friday night so I couldn't do it :lol: but I knew for tonight *.*

 

The setlist could've been improved in some places I think. While I enjoyed Clumsy, Change Your Mind and Do You Wanna Come Over?, I think I'd have preferred a few more Britney classics. Songs like Everytime and Lucky would've slotted in perfectly to break the bangers up a little bit, and we could easily have swapped Boys (my lowlight of the night) for the criminally underrated Overprotected. However, there were more than enough highlights to make up for it and honestly I'd have quite happily enjoyed two nights of Britney singing her worst album tracks :lol: I'd easily go again tomorrow night if I had the money!! :lol:

 

omg and the audience member she brought on stage tonight was RYLAN !!!!!!

Thrilled to hear you had such a good time, Joseph! I agree about Pitbull. He's someone I'd never have considered going to see live but his energy on stage and the way he engaged with the crowd really impressed me. I loved how he would tease the intros to the songs he features on, like 'On the Floor', 'I Like It', 'DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love' etc., perform his rap and then explode into the chorus. Definitely got everyone hyped for Britney at Scarborough, even if that didn't continue throughout her set.

 

I agree about the 'Toxic' to 'Till the World Ends' section, that was probably my favourite too. The crowd at Scarborough did pick up for that so that had a positive effect on me too. I love the tour mix of 'Stronger' and, just like you, 'Till the World Ends' has really shot up my affections after seeing her close with it.

 

'Lucky' was the main song I felt could have been added and I think it would have been nice if 'Born to Make You Happy' was added for UK audiences, but I thought the likes of 'Change Your Mind' and 'Do You Wanna Come Over?' slotted in really well among her classics so I'm pleased they were included.

 

I didn't know when 'Gimme More' was coming on either aside from it being early on in the setlist and I knew from YouTube videos that it goes quiet just before it comes on, so I remember frantically telling my friend to start filming just in time! :lol: Not that anyone else joined in, of course! :')

I went for a second time last night and she was PHENOMENAL. I had SUCH a fantastic time (despite being quite far back and not having the best view.) Every song just came alive in the arena! Brb listening to Britney Jean Spears forever and ever.
Had so much fun at the Birmingham show <3 Her dancing was definitely waaaay better than when I saw her at Circus & Femme Fatale and she seemed really in the zone (pardon the pun). Crowd interaction was minimal and seemed really forced (though I did like the accent) which was my only gripe, but the show was pretty much continual high energy which made up for that.

Thankfully she said “Hello Birmingham” when she was actually in Birmingham! Clearly we were such a good audience that we left a lasting impact on her :kink:

 

Had such a great time at her show with Bal! It had been almost 7 years since I last saw her at the Femme Fatale Tour, so certainly a long time coming but absolutely worth the wait. It’s such a relentless set list, high energy from start to finish. We were quite near the catwalk so it was amazing to see her up close (the previous times I’ve seen her in 2009 & 2011 I was in the tiers). I’m not the sort of fan who knows every dance move & how on point or not it is, but from my perspective she put her everything into her performances. Love her so much :heart:

 

I was a bit disappointed that she cut Slumber Party because it’s one of my faves on Glory, but that’s pretty much the only negative I can think of.

 

Oh and her English accent was... something!

Wtf.

 

 

This has pretty much gotten national news traction in Spain.

This has pretty much gotten national news traction in Spain.

the saddest thing is I can believe that's true :(

I'm getting increasingly worried about her mental health atm :( her IG posts have been a bit... :/

 

Really hope she's ok! :cry:

My friend had a really bad M&G experience with her too and said she wasn't really mentally in the room. I agree with Jonjo, that along with not knowing where she is when she performs and the M&G experiences people are having I am starting to worry that she needs a good long break.
