Ticket Stub Tuesday… Round Thirty-One:
Drop your socks and grab your mini-boombox! It’s hard to believe that this was the first time the one and only Kylie Minogue toured the U-S of A. Naturally, as soon as I heard that this Aussie would be touring stateside, I bought tickets. Although having been on the world stage since the 1980s, Minogue was under the radar in the US until her 2001 breakthrough, “Can’t Get You Out of My Head,” dominated airwaves. Since then, her die-hard fans could only dream that she would come here to tour.
Having to wait until the bitter-end of the tour schedule, Kylie played the last of her tour dates right here in New York City at Hammerstein Ballroom. Attending the “For Me, For You” tour with me was fellow Kylie fanatic, @SimTilver. Right from the start, there was a fantastic energy in the venue. Minogue’s voice was truly wonderful live, which is rarely the case for most pop singers who opt not to lip sync.
Since this was the last night of the tour, Minogue performed a few extra songs for the audience. Additionally, this concert was recorded and released in December 2009 — Kylie: Live in New York.
