Rate Chris Brown, Tom Waits, Whoever You Saw Live
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Teen R&B superstar Chris Brown (above) made a whirlwind stop in Atlanta this past weekend, with lots of local music power behind him.
Fellow pin-up Lloyd and newcomers Krave opened for the multimillion-seller, and their fellow Atlantan T-Pain made a surprise appearance to perform their single “Kiss, Kiss.” (See the photo gallery HERE).
Were you at Chastain Saturday? Think the performance was worth the rather steep ($58.75-$88.75) prices?
Or did you stop over at the Atlanta Civic Center for Atlanta Pride’s “Divas” concert, featuring Thelma Houston, CeCe Peniston and Frenchie Davis? Perhaps you joined V-103’s Ryan Cameron and other Atlantans who caught Brown (again), the LaBelle reunion, Atlantan J Holiday and others at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans? (See that gallery HERE).
Then again, surely some of you kept it more quiet (Van Hunt’s acoustic shows at Apache Cafe) and cerebral (Tom Waits at the Fox Theatre, Gil Scott-Heron at Sugar Hill).
In short, of all of the offerings, what great live music did you see this past weekend?
