Two months ago, I saw that Robyn was coming to little ol' Boston and I JUMPED on the opportunity to go. This past Tuesday night was the night and I was so ready to dance. The concert was amazing - Kelis co-headlined and she mixed "Milkshake" (talk about throwback) with Madonna's "Holiday" - which was glorious.
The main event was undoubtedly Robyn and I was not disappointed - my expectations were exceeded. She kept the energy level high by dancing the entire time...only taking a quick break to eat a banana. I'm not even kidding - a sold out venue watching the performer eat a banana. Only Robyn...Anyways I had a blast dancing for an hour plus but the excitement had just begun.
It turned out that if you bought Robyn or Kelis' album for $10, you could get it signed after the show. Um done. I'm not sure the last time I bought a CD and I can't remember seeing a CD for sale for $10 past 1998 - $10 for awesome music and you get to meet Robyn? Sold!
We waited in line for a bit and then got our CDs signed - I told her I had seen her at Roskilde, which she confirmed was one of her favorite places to perform and got a snazzy silver autograph from Kelis.
I've listened to the CD non-stop for 2 days now and I can't wait for Pt. 2 to come out in September so my awkward car dancing can continue to evolve.
If you ever have the chance, go see her perform - I promise you'll have fun. Live life beyond the f it, I promise you won't be disappointed.
With that - I leave you with Robyn's collaboration with Röyksopp "None of Dem"
