Trey Day

Yesterday my friend Clejoi and I braved the wind and the rain and headed downtown to see my boo Trey Songz perform live at the Roseland Ballroom. Thankfully the doors were already open when we got there so we didn't have to wait outside. I wasn't familiar with the venue so I had no idea it was standing room only unless your tickets said mezzanine (although I didn't see that option on ticketmaster). Nevertheless I had on my comfortable boots and nothing was gonna stop me from enjoying the show.

The show was scheduled to start at 8pm but the sign at the ticketbooth said Trey wasn't coming out till 9:30! DJ Dee Nice was on the one's and two's warming up the crowd. Too bad it was mostly girls so not too much dancing took place.

Finally the stage darkened and Mr. Tremaine Neverson revealed himself and the crowd went madddd including quiet, little reserved me. I normally don't go nuts over celebs but I'm sorry this man does it for me. I couldn't help screaming, stopping my feet, and waving my arms in the air. He started off with Can't Help But Wait and took it back to I Gotta Make It and even tracks from his mixtape Anticipation (only his real fans know about that) not to mention songs he was featured on like Summer in Miami and Girl Tonite. Fabolous came out and performed Say Ahhhhh and the place went nuts. His latest CD FINALLY went gold and Kevin Lyles and Andre Harrell came out to present him with his plaque and revealed his new Vibe cover for the April/May issue. He thanked his fans for our continued support and encouraged us to follow our dreams and don't let anyone or anything stand in our way.

Trey Songz knows how to put on a show. He can sing, his band was dope, and his stage presence is incredible. I would definitely pay to see him again, he has a fan (perhaps even a groupie) for life.
