Soul and Swag

A couple days ago I was invited to go to the Apollo Theater to see Amateur Night!

(This picture is way too dark, but I just had to document such a thrilling experience.)

My naivety got the best of me, because I really had no idea what this meant.

I soon found out this place has housed some of the most famous performers of all time, including:

MICHAEL JACKSON!

It was filled with more soul and swag than I knew existed.

Bouncin', and halleluja-in', and MM HMM-in', and clappin' and hip movin'

I should have taken my gangsta pills before attending. darn it.

Instead, my date came in a suit and tie, and I politely crossed my legs and folded my arms while giving a quiet quaint clap after each performer.

Just kidding. Kinda.

It was an awesome experience.

I felt honored to be in the same room that Michael Jackson was once in.

Which then reminded me that at this time next year I will hopefully be attending his

Cirque du Soleil Immortal Tour at Madison Square Garden.

Considering I bought the tickets a year in advance..

(thinking it was actually this year. Blonde moment)

I better book my flight now. and figure out the other 3 guests i'll be bringing.

I'll take any sort of bribes or pamper treatments..starting now.
