Marsha Ambrosius's voice was like Courvoisier on ice! She crooned several songs including her hit tune 'Butterflies' written for Michael Jackson! 

A nice tune Marsha penned about growing up in
 Toxteth, Liverpool

The show must go on!: Being the professional she is, 

not even a little fight in the crowd could stop Marsha's set!

WARNING! Shaky Cam may cause motion sickness!

Take it to the bridge girlfriend!

I am a BIG fan of Liverpudlian born, Marsha Ambrosius. So having missed her tour in the USA, I was oh so happy to be able to hop 3 mins. over from my apartment to see her perform in my backyard (Sefton Park)! The only thing I'll say is she would of faired much better performing Sunday where there was more of a...'mature' crowd who could fully appreciate this girls credentials (Grammy Award winner, writer for  Justin Timberlake 'Cry me a river' and the legend that is Jacko!). I still believe she's one of the most underrated singers of this generation- full stop! Anyways, all I'll say is, show her some love and go cop her album 'Friends & Lovers' if you haven't already!

NEON JUNGLE

Neon Jungle did take stage but before my sister and I could be further crushed by the throng of overzealous teeny boppin crowd-we split. Its a shame as well as I'd of liked to see this generations bootleg version of the Spice Girls! LOL! Ok.. no really, I'll play nice from now.I like their style and therefore would of loved to see them shaq out! But it came down to keeping our lives (and limbs) or risk getting stampeded by 15yr. olds high on bubblegum and with probing umbrellas! The Foxes too would of been a good watch and sing-a-long! So tell me, what did I miss?! 

Foxes

**Newsflash! to local and National promoters and media; Do feel free to share any 'All Access' passes on your events for this blogite! Geesh! 

Blogging ain't easy!

(*brrrrrrrr! a cold shudder down my spine at the thought!). It's been a while since I've covered any events but that's only cause I've been busy on my year travelling and writing- so stay posted!

Time to go home, but a great time had and looking forward to next year!

Starting the day the Healthy Way!

So today was my third day back working out after returning to Dubai a month ago!

Saturday and Sunday was some good ole' throwback Taebo aerobics workouts (gotta love Billy Blanks!), good for releasing all the pent up frustration and everyday stress and this workout was no different! I did a Playlist on Youtube, Googled some 20min. workout ideas and got straight to business! This workout is no joke! I started thinking this is too easy, but I broke a sweat sure enough half way through! What did you do to get your engine moving today!? #Noexcuses 

#Tip; I like to workout on a empty stomach, its said to tap into the stored glucose/fat storage quicker!
