Janet Jackson concert review
Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Canada
Wed, 02 Sep 2015

Well I was excited for this one as the last time she was in Calgary she was AMAZING! That was June 1990 (more then 25 years ago)... I waited overnight in line for tickets and it sold old that morning! Rhythm Nation tour, it was so great!!! Tonight, my seat wasn't as good, and it was very loud. She didn't come out till 8:30 PM and by 10:00 PM she was finished. She took a couple of intermissions during that time too, not sure if she played 75? 80? 90 minutes? You would think playing on the concert tour for +30 years she would be able to fill at least 2 or 3 hours non-stop. She did sing a lot of her hits from 1990 but just bits and pieces of them all. She raced through 10 Top 10 hits in about 7 minutes. Disappointing... She only had a DJ open for her as well, that was REALLY lame. She did perform one new song but it's was alright... Lots of good dancing though but probably not as good as in 1990. The crowd was super small too, that was disappointing, maybe 8,000 people? Oh Janet, where did you go wrong? Thankfully I got to go for free, if I had paid $150 I would be pretty darn disappointed. Show rates 6/10 for me. Thank goodness it was free!
