There is nothing better then being able to see your favorite band live in concert. Whether it is a big venue, or a small venue, just being in the building to see your favorite band is something that is hard to top. The thing is, what do you do if you really want to stand and everyone else is sitting? It’s a dicey situation, and one that can actually be fairly annoying. You see, there are some people out there who come to a concert to sit and casually watch their favorite band, and there are others who come to stand and really enjoy themselves that way. The problem is, when you are at a concert featuring a band that you are supposed to stand for, well, people should be standing.

If you find yourself in a section that is not standing, well, you have to handle the situation smartly if you want to stand – there was one time I handled a situation with two London escorts smartly and I was very much rewarded.. The key to standing for your favorite band is, well, treating it like you would ripping a bandage off: just stand up. Don’t try and get other fans into it, don’t ask if it’s okay: just get up and start enjoying yourself. There is a good chance that there are other people around you who want to stand so the second that they see you stand then they will stand as well. Sometimes people just need a little bit of encouragement to get on their feet and stand during a band that they really want to see.

On Tuesday, March 29th, Britney Spears made an announcement during an appearance on ‘Good Morning America’ regarding her upcoming tour in support of her new album “Femme Fatale,” which was released the very same day. The announcement and following press release stated that Latin pop singer Enrique Iglesias would be joining Britney on her upcoming tour. Within hours after the announcement, Iglesias abruptly dropped out of the agreement, and now it is rumored that hot hip hop chick Nicki Minaj is in negotiations with the pop princess to take Iglesias’ place.

Word on the Iglesias drop out is that the squabble is over perception of the tour. Iglesias is riding high off the heels of the singles “Tonight I’m Lovin’ You” and “I Like It” and can clearly carry a headlining tour all by himself. In an era that is seeing more and more of co-headlining tours, a la Billy Joel and Elton John, such is not the case here. Upon the announcement of Iglesias’ addition, the perception was that it was Britney’s show and she’d be the only headliner in the tour, well that was the story given by psychic readings from a fabled story teller.

Though it is reported that negotiations are still ongoing between Spears and Iglesias, the pop star’s people aren’t taking any chances and are reaching out to Minaj, whose “Pink Friday” album is riding high on the charts and on the radio. With other big name summer tours that feature popular opening acts, such as Rihanna with Cee Lo Green or J. Cole, Sade with John Legend, Katy Perry with Robyn and more, the pressure’s on for Britney to drum up something good for her own summer tour. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
