RIHANNA CONCERT - DAY 1


Oh my effin Gosh. The two Rihanna concerts i attended were the most amazing of celebrity encounters of my life. So naturally i must blog about this. :D

DAY 1

So after a 4:15am wake up to get ready which was stupid because i almost missed my train to the concert at 4:45am at Nerang which thankfully we managed to get aboard of JUST in time. Unfortunately Myself and Hana were so late that we were unable to purchase a ticket on time, which we thought wouldn't really matter considering they don't check tickets at Boondall station.... WRONG!!!! Within 2 minutes of our final destination the ticket checkers came by and gave us a warning. Which doesn't cost anything so it wasn't TOO BIG of a deal. So after meeting up with Oliver And Lili (after randomly seeing that they had caught the same train as us) we arrived at the entertainment center at 6am. Followed by Thomas, Trent, Daniel, and Cedric(the random french guy) who all arrived around 6:30 - 11:00.
Daniel had arrived with "R" Navy hats for us myself, Hana, himself and Thomas to wear. And he also arrived with a flag and his costume. WE all just chilled that day (talking mostly about lady gaga) and made signs and got ourselves ready for the concert. We were at the gate and saw Bryan Tanika and Far East Movement but other then that there was not much celeb action going on.

About 3pm Oliver and Lili received news that the tickets they were meant to buy on the day (from thomas who had won them from optus) were seating and were desperately looking on Ebay for standing ones!
After finding VIP tickets for 200 each they offered to pay 120 for our tickets and we pay an extra 80 for VIP which we ended up doing landing us a spot in VIP.
After the gates opened letting people into the building all hell broke loose when NO ONE knew how to do there freaking job and made myself hana and our new friend Mario (who we met along our stress session) run around looking for confirmation of where to go. No one knew and eventually we figured out that we needed a wristband to get in. SO after waiting an stressing for what seemed like an EXCRUCIATING long time, we were let into the Pre-Show Party (which was just drinks in a room basically). But myself and Hana being the impatient and passionate Sagittarians we are ditched the party (without our free drinks) to claim our spot as the first people in the VIP Moshpit.


After securing our spot, rejoicing, and feeling free, the first act of the night up was Far East Movement. They were so energetic and asian that it was AWESOME fun. They really know how to get into a performance. There was basically 3 - 9 people in the VIP area during there act so Myself and Hana took the liberty of dancing and going hard to there techno pop beats! After realizing how sweaty it made us we calmed down so we could save some energy for Rihanna.

Calvin Harris was the next artist out. He Dj'd for about an 40 - 60 minutes. It was boring till i pointed at him and he pointed back. Then i got excited. Then i got bored again. Then he left. Then i was happy and ready for Rihanna!

Chris and Eric (people that i saw and Hana met at a Jam session we had went to with Rihannas band and dancers in Brisbane earlier that week) were on stage and we yelled out to them. They gave Hana a lot of attention. Anyways then Rihanna entered the Arena. There was a decoy in front of us that i was totally screaming and dieing when it came out and Hana/Thomas were even crying. And then it randomly fell and i panicked and then Rihanna had appeared behind us on the Middle Runway stage as beautiful as ever. Her hair was just long with a fringe and red. She was SO HOT! Not once through out the whole show did i think she made an ugly face. EVen when she tried to make ugly faces they were hot seductive ones. She sang 4 Loud songs (S&M, Whats My Name, Only Girl, and Love The Way You Lie Part 2) and then Singles and Extra songs from Rated R. My Favorite from that night was probably WAIT YOUR TURN and WHATS MY NAME.
Anyways so the night went buy amazing. She could sing, she could dance, she looked hot. Everything about that show i loved. Especially the fact that not ONE song bored me. Every song was amazing to the dot! She is the most sexual Celeb EVER! The mic became her penis more times then Gaga changes clothes. And she was so sexual in her moves and her expression even.
Anyways the concert ended and Hana/Mario had caught drumsticks that Eric (i think) threw out to them. and we departed outside. We waited by the outside gate whilst talking about the night and how amazing it was for about an hour. Most (if not all) the traffic had left and the people as well had all gone when we saw a random black van come out of the drive in gate. Not knowing if it would be her i held my sign up and waited for the van to drive past. Turned out it was her and the shock of the moment was so weird. She waved and smiled and we all managed to see her waving but it was weird because no one was expecting it and it was so quick. But then we drove home and tweeted and facebooked and bedtime, satisfied and happy with all the results of the day! If this had been the only day, i still would have been satisfied by the next day was to bring the most excitement!!
