I've read some pretty amazing reviews but there was also a damn horrible one. The review said that all the singing in the pop songs were lip-synced and that the show only lasted for 65 minutes! :-? :o

I didn't watch any videos yet, 'cause I wanna be surprised. But I'm going to be disappointed if she really lip-syncs and a 65 minute show is ridiculous considering the price we paid...

From the videos I saw on youtube it didn't seem that she was lip synching. But to my surprise she sounded good, so it might be true :lol: , not sure though :lol:

She's not lipsynching, it's all live, except the big choruses of the dance songs have playback but she still sings.

^ Florence! 8-)

Oh good to hear she doesn't lip-sync. I knew she would use a heave backing track but as long as she sings along with it, I'm with with that! :D

But I do REALLY REALLY hope the show is longer than 65 minutes, 'cause that is just ridiculous! :-?

According to wikipedia this is the new extended setlist for the tour (don't know if it's legit though):

Act I
"Roman Holiday"
"Did It on 'Em"
"I Am Your Leader"
"Beez In The Trap"
"Stupid Hoe"
"Dance (A$$)"

Act II
"Right By My Side"
"Champion"
"Moment 4 Life"

Act III
"Va Va Voom" (Interlude)
"Starships"
"Marilyn Monroe"
"Pound the Alarm"
"Whip It"
"Where Them Girls At"

Act IV
"Check It Out"/"Muny"/"Wave Ya Hand" (Interlude)
"Fire Burns"
"Save Me"
"Bottoms Up"
"Come On a Cone"

Encore
"Turn Me On"
"Super Bass"


If true, this is really a big step up. I don't want that short 65 minute set lol! :P

Maybe it was just a small setlist for Australia because she's not that big over there?

But this new setlish is much much better :D

One of her fans in Japan was murdered right after the concert :o

It's been going around the press that it was one of her back-up dancers but she just tweeted:
> @PerezHilton my dancers had nothing to do w/this tragedy. No one in my entourage was questioned or arrested. They all flew home from Japan
Crazy! Poor girl!

I loved it! Her vocals were much better than I expected! Most songs were shortened though and I had a feeling it was a rather low-budget show though (only three outfits and one decor). It only lasted a good hour as well.

There were some setlist changes by the way!

I went today, I had a great time. She was one freaking hour late but other than that it was AMAZING. Everybody seemed to love the rap songs more than the pop songs. She kept saying that we were the best crowd ever. At the end she even let a girl rap Itty Bitty Piggy on stage :lol:. She also did HOV Lane, and a couple of other songs she said she never performd overseas. (which is true cause I can't find them on youtube) Long story short: I was honored to be a part of one of the best crowds ever. I also catched one of the T-shirt she threw in the audience, I had to fight for it tho' :lol: And at the end of the concert me and my friends met her dancers and we did a dougie battle lmao.

P.S: James that's not a picture of Amsterdam.

Anywaysss I had a great time, I'm going again in October and she promised us that she is going to come with Drake & Weezy 8-)

That is not the venue she performed at today. The venue on the picture is where she's performing on October 15th, when she's back for a new show in The Netherlands! :D

It's crazy. The new show was announced before the show was even finished. It'll be in the Ziggo Dome on (as I said) October 15th. Tickets go on sale June 29th.

Ziggo Dome's capacity is 16,000 8-)

What a night! :o

Just like QueenBfan I attended the show in Amsterdam and wow what a show. Nicki blew me away. The show is one big energy bomb. It was crazy, the crowd went nuts. The urban/rap songs seemed to be the most appreciated ones, even though Starships, Pound The Alarm and Turn Me On got a great response too. :D

Nicki seemed to LOVE the Dutch crowd. She told us over and over again how amazing we were and gave us much more than what other cities/countries got. She seemed to get so much energy from the crowd and kept performing songs (some of which she had never performed before). The Dutch crowd knew the words to every single song. We got a much longer setlist/show and we actually got 2 wigs, she saved one especially for this show... :lol:

This tweet shows once again how amazed she was by the Dutch crowd:

Nicki Minaj (Twitter) wrote:I've toured for the last 5 years of my life. I've never in my #LIFE experienced a crowd like the one I just witnessed tonight in #Amsterdam
As I mentioned above, the show/setlist was longer than it normally is. She was on stage for approximately 98 minutes.

Also, she changed the setlist. The opening number wasn't Roman Holiday, but it was Roman's Revenge. She didn't perform Champion and Where Them Girls At either, but we got a lot of other songs in return.

The setlist (if I remember correctly) went as follows:

01. Roman's Revenge
02. Did It On 'Em
03. I Am Your Leader
04. Beez In The Trap
05. Stupid Hoe
06. Dance (A$$)
07. Right By My Side
08. Moment 4 Life
09. Automatic (Interlude - DJ Playing)
10. Starships
11. Pound The Alarm
12. Whip It
13. Va Va Voom (short performance)
14. Turn Me On
15. Till The World Ends Remix (Interlude - DJ Playing)
16. Save Me
17. Marilyn Monroe
18. Your Love (Small bit sung by Nicki followed by Dancers segment)
19. Check It Out (Dancers segment)
20. Make Me Proud
21. Come On A Cone
22. HOV Lane
23. Medley (all songs were songs she's featured on)
24. Itty Bitty Piggy (contest - she brought a girl on stage and rapped the song with her)
25. Roman Reloaded (small bit)
26. Bedrock
27. Superbass


All in all, such an amazing show. She looked stunning in real life. I think she looks so much more beautiful in person than on tv and in photos. And wow that ass... 8-)

I'm definitely buying tickets to the next show here in The Netherlands. October 15th can't come too soon! 8-)
