boyz ii men, abc, bbd, the east coast family!

ah, the 1990's...back when we were young...life was easy back then...so carefree! last night chris and i were at the boyz ii men concert at the riverrock, and i suddenly felt 1/2 my age! it's hard to believe that boyz ii men were "it" a dozen years ago. i still remember being at their concert in 1994 (or was it 1995?). granted, i was only 16 back then and us girls would scream at anything. i guess not a lot changes as we get older :P haha! at one point the boyz were giving out roses, and it was a total frenzy in front of the stage! (i managed to control myself and stayed in my seat.)

after not hearing their music for so many years, i couldn't believe how easily i remembered all the lyrics to their songs. they've released a new album, but i think most of the fans were there for the oldies :-) somehow r&b has gotten lost in all the hip-hop/pop music out there...i'm glad boyz ii men are making a comeback...i've missed their ballads. great, great memories.

seeing them perform at the riverrock was great. it's a smaller venue, so it feels a lot more up close & personal. it was also a stark contrast to the last concert chris and i attended....christina aguilera :P last night was fairly civilized w/a late 20s/early-30s crowd. crazy enuf, we even saw our old dragonboat friends, roz & harry, who were actually sitting right behind us!

the next concert i go to will be JT w/selena. i can only imagine how crazy that's going to be!
