Woot! Finally! Last night I was able to enjoy my first Kylie Minogue concert live and in person. After 20 years of being a fan and after seeing every concert she’s ever performed on DVD or, back in the day, bootlegged VHS (usually from Japan), last night was at long last my chance to see Kylie on stage with my own eyes. I was very surprised how good our seats were … I bought them online many months ago when they went on sale here in the UK and had forgotten that I managed to score center section floor seats — the show was pretty phenomenal … I am not comparing it to any other Kylie Concert that I’ve ever seen before on video because, after all, this was my first time — and one’s first time is always special ;)

Because today is a travel day (and because it’s Sunday), I won’t be able to work up a usual weekend day post. We have to leave our hotel in about an hour so I don’t have much time to post much this lovely AM. So … I am posting a bunch of my pics from last night’s KylieX2008 show and will do my best to try and post a bit more before the day is over. Irregardless, David and I will be in Paris, France by tomorrow morning so I will be back with a usual full day post.

Kylie Minogue played the first of her 7 (yes, 7) scheduled dates at the O2 Arena last night …


… and here is a taste of the show in pictures. After the jump, check out a few of the 500+ pics that I took last night and a full setlist of the night’s performance …

‘These Are The Dreams …’

Welp … London has been lovely, let me tell you but as I mentioned yesterday … David and I haven’t been able to see very much of it thus far. After we finished work yesterday, it was too late to catch an early dinner so we had to catch a late dinner. We found a great sushi place near our hotel and had a very nice meal. Afterwards, we did a bit of walking in the Theater district near Trafalgar Square and popped into a pub called The Bear & Staff for a couple of pints. We spent the rest of the late night just walking around, taking in bits of the city as we went along.

I’ve been working all morning and will be wrapping up soon, David is out strolling about town so — we’re doing our best to enjoy what we can. We leave for Paris tomorrow night so it looks like our English exposure will be very limited. Even still, we are very much looking forward to tonight … for the first time, at long last, I will finally be able to see Kylie Minogue live and in concert!!!


I can’t even express my excitement … I will do my best to give a full report, hopefully with loads of pics!!!

Not sure what the plan for tonight is … we may try and attend the last party at G-A-Y tonight but we fear it may be too much of a madhouse to get in. In any event, we’ll do our best to have the best time we can. I’m already planning my next trip to Londontown … this visit will be far too short to adequately be able to enjoy the city.
