Day 23: Mesmerize

Yesterday was quite an interesting experience to say the least. It was nice seeing performances from random 90’s artists like Ja Rule/Ashanti and of course R Kelly.

To be completely honest, the festival itself (Soulquarius) was kind of a train wreck. It was rather mesmerizing how bad it was, actually.

  1. The lines were too ridiculously long.
  2. Unless you were in the VIP section, it was impossible to see anything from that far away (especially if you’re short).
  3. It was hard to get from one stage to the next.
  4. Performances were late. Nobody knew who was performing next. Nothing was updated.
  5. I’ll probably call Ticketstoday tomorrow to see how much of a refund I can get.
  6. All the reviews on the Facebook Event Page are negative, because I’m sure everybody shares the same sentiments I do.

One pro of course was how good the After’s Ice Cream tasted in the middle of the night. That’s one plus.

I liked Ja Rule and Ashanti the best, but I wish I could have seen the other performances! Errykah Baddhu nearly put me to sleep and R Kelly was a little extreme for my taste. Oh well.
