JT = Hot Timberland = Not

So the much anticipated event of the summer has now come and gone; JT has passed through and is now onto bigger and better cities. Lucky for him since he thinks Winnipeg is "superbad"... What does he know?

Despite his hatred for my beloved city, JT was really everything I could have ever wanted. His stage presence was top-notch, his dancing skills definitely above par, his voice smooth as silk and... oh yeah... he was attractive as... well... he was attractive. Not to mention, it was quite impressive to see him play the guitar as well as the piano on stage. Nice to see a real musician get major credit in the pop scene, we all know you don't have to have your song played on HOT103.

There were, however, a couple of downfalls to the evening; the biggest one being Timberland. Not to say his DJing skills aren't good, but his was a major kill-joy. If I wanted to hear a top 40 medley from two years ago, I could have definitely listened to my own mix cd's at home. After about 30 minutes of boredom resulting in creases on my face from Alexa's shoulder, to my utter dismay before my eyes on the stage in front of me (And I mean wayyyyyyy in front of me) danced, or crawled rather, a couple of scantily clad women bearing... whips? Who knows. I've never seen strippers in my life so I can't really say what they wear, but God knows I think I've seen as much of an imitation as I ever should. I was unimpressed... especially when JT slapped one of their asses, and then proceeded to fake a thrust in the other's bum. BARF.

Ahhh well. The evening was still nothing less than a success. I always love some good quality time with my bff's which will only allow for more bonding experiences in the future as we reminisce over Matt losing his ticket, a reprimand from a security guard at City Place over attending the concert due to his strong stance as a Christian. Then trying to hoard the ticket he found and lying about the whereabouts... Yeah, think about that one. Anyways... Yayyy JT, we had fun with you. I sure hope the other women there found the evening as great of a success as I. Although, I had nothing to be disappointed about at the end of the night when I went home without JT. By the looks and sounds of things before, during, and after the show, it would appear a lot of girls thought the contrary. My heart goes out to them.

Peace.
