Spice Girls Concert

I finally got my Spice Girls concert videos and pictures loaded! The night before Valentine's Day, I went out for a pre-Valentine's date with Cathy, Molly, Molly's sister Sara, and Sara's fiancé's sister, Steph to the Spice Girls concert! I know I can speak for Cathy, Molly, and me when I say that we have been HUGE Spice Girls fans since 5th grade. Growing up, they were my idols, and now that I've grown up and know what's really important in life, I can honestly say I would sell my soul to be a Spice Girl. My new personal goal in life is to be an international superstar. Do you think I have a shot?

Their job must be so much fun:

Some of my earlier pictures are a little blurry because I was too excited to get the settings right on my camera at first. I promise they get better later on:

I really loved how true their outfits stayed to their old "characters" they used to play back in the 90s:

After the song, they got into dressing rooms right on stage to change into their new outfits, while singing!

This next part was my absolute favorite. All of the Spice Girls put on modern adaptations of their exact old outfits! Here's an old picture from the 90s:

At the end of the song, Ginger Spice sunk away into the stage, representing her leaving the group. For a few songs, it was just the other four girls, and then she came back:

I was going to post my "Wannabe" video here, but something happened to it when it uploaded onto Google Video so I'm going to have to post that in a couple days when I can re-upload it.

I hope you enjoyed the show!

FAGULOUS PICTURES-NO WONDER THEY ARE SO POPULAR. ISNT ONE MARRIED TO 'BEND IT LIKE BACKHAM'/ G

Posted by: G at February 25, 2008 11:17 AM

I am sure it was a typo, but "fagulous" is my new favorite word. I had a fagulous time on Saturday night at Metropolitan with my gays. Ah aha ha aha hahahah aHAH AH AHAH

Anyway, your path to International Superstardom should start with Playboy. Send Holly your picture!! I'll be your agent!

Do you have a favorite Spice Girl? In their prime my guy friends thought Ginger was so hot...

Posted by: 'Tree' at February 25, 2008 01:39 PM

Hmm... back in the day my favorite was Baby Spice because she's a fellow blonde, but I think my new favorite would have to be Posh (G- that would be Mrs. "Bend It Like Beckham")

Hey Everybody! Thanks so much for all the nice comments! I was actually at the show at the Meadowlands, just took me a looooong time to get the pics/videos uploaded, so I guess that's why Trent throught it was last night. Isn't his site awesome?

Anyway, I use a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18. I'm very faithful to the Panasonic Lumix cameras, they're amazing and not super expensive!

Here it is at Circuit City:
