I have to agree with mrside. I waited in line for a hour outside and three hours inside. I was the white girl with curly hair that you placed your chair in front of. I was so excited to see you and have been a true fan for years. I was very disappointed. I paid $70 for VIP which ultimately ended up meaning I got to go inside first. I also paid for my friend's ticket because I wanted to go so bad and had no one to go with. I'm from Kansas City originally and now that I live in Minneapolis, I do not get to see many shows. Black artists do not typically come to Minneapolis. There was no show, just a goofy short man trying to hype up the crowd until you came. It was lame. When you sat right in front of me I was excited but upset at the same time because all these girls were elbowing the crap out of me and punching me in my lower back. I don't mind all of that and I know it's part of being up front but in the end it wasn't worth it. I don't know if it was your fault or the promoter's fault or Epic's fault but again I was extremely disappointed. I did get to say a couple of words to you but I have to admit I was ticked off and I'm sure you could tell. Like I said earlier, I'm a huge fan. I love your music and listen to you all the time. I've actually purchased your CD's instead of illegally downloading them but now I feel as if I should not pay another dime.
