HOLY SHIZIT! Wanna be blown away? See Bryan Adams live!!!! EEEEEEE!

Oh my god....... I saw Bryan Adams on Monday night, and it was the most AMAZING show I have ever been to!! He is the EFFIN man! It was the second time I have seen him live and I could see him another zillion times! The first time I had seats way in the back but it was still the most incredible concert ever! The energy at a Bryan show is insane! I am not joking, it is like nothing I've ever seen. This time I was really close on the floor and it effin ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen a lot of concerts, all different genres and seen many different crowds, and Bryan always BY FAR has the greatest and most enthusiastic fans. It blows me away! You'll see everyone at a BA show, doesn't matter what age or who you are. I love how much respect he gets from the guys too. They freak out and cheer for Bryan just as much as the girls do, lol. Plus Canadians LOVE their own, and down here in the Maritimes people just want to marry Bryan Adams, even straight guys would probably marry him, LMAO. As soon as Summer of 69 starts to play, you can see the hearts in people's eyes, hahaha.

He has this awesome connection with his fans. He really cares and includes the fans as much as possible during the show. I love how much he interacts with the crowd. He specifically talks to people in the audience, looks people in the eye, goes down right on the floor and hugs fans and shakes hands and takes fans' cameras and take pics of him with them, lol. I love how he always brings a fan with him up on stage to sing a song with him. Bryan is as real as they come.

The best part? That EVERYONE in the arena was singing along to every song, and clapping and on their feet the whole night. To me, that is one of the most amazing sounds and best things about going to concerts. To hear thousands of people all sing along, that is why music is life. And that's why Bryan's music never ages.

He is celebrating 25 years of being a musician, and you have one of his first songs "Straight From the Heart" and all these years later everyone is still in love with it and that is the song that people sing along to the most. That is talent. That is a gift. All of his songs are timeless and so meaningful to people.

It was so funny. As soon as the music started playing for a song, the whole crowd would start singing before Bryan had a chance, and then he just had this huge smile on his face when he would start singing, lol.

He played a straight 2 hours with his band, and then Bryan came out and sang a bunch of songs by himself. WOW!!!!! Just him, his guitar, his harmonica and the fans making beautiful music together. In between each song he'd be standing there looking at us with such an amused face, waiting for us to quiet down and let him start the next song, LMAO. No one wanted him to leave!! He kept pretending to check the time and ask us if we had anywhere to be, hahahaha. If we could have kept him there for another 10 hours somehow, the crowd would have done it, lol.

I can't even pick a highlight from the concert because the whole show was spectacular! Every song was just so amazing and so rockin!

If you ever have the chance to see Bryan live, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

He will leave you speechless.
