Saturday night at the Dirty Thirty Diesel xXx event I attended was off-the-hook crazy! It was on Pier 3 in Brooklyn, New York. We were so lucky because we had the warmest weather ever. No jackets were viewed anywhere, which is a miracle for Fall in New York. I walked up and there were over 2,000 people waiting in a long ass line. Since I’m an employee I went to our special entrance seconds before they were closing it. As I was walking into the event the general admission line opened. People streamed in like sperm trying to find the uterus.
Inside there were two huge bars. The first bar had a monstrous LCD screen above it. It was hard as hell to get a drink. Smart people were walking away double fisted because the lines were treacherous and it was all FREE anyways, so why not. The stage was a beast itself. It was huge with another LCD screen over it. Around the perimeter of the tent were hot dog and pretzel stands, after all you can’t take in all that free booze on an empty stomach.
I was hanging out with my friends and I wanted to be up front so we made our way up. Chaka Khan opened the show. I’m way down with Chaka but I wasn’t sure how the crowd would react because they are kind of young. But when she brought her thick ass up there and started blowing away ‘I’m Every Woman’ they went bananas. Everybody had their hands in the air and was singing along with her. She had a power and control over the audience that was surreal. It was a great beginning to what was about to happen later on. There was an intermission where we went to find for more drinks and hit up the ladies room.
I decided to climb the bars that created a stairwell so my short ass could get a better view. It was the best ever. Next thing you know T.I comes out – nobody ever said anything about him. I had no idea what so ever. He was off the hook with his fine tiny ass flying everywhere. His little hype man had a bottle of Patron that he was pouring into the audiences mouth – or should I say all over their entire being because it was poured from 3 feet above!!!!! It was crazy. He kicked out “Bring Em Out,” “Swing Ya Rag,” “Whatever You Like,” “What You Know” and ended with M.I.A. doing the backup vocals for “Swagga Like This.” Before TI was over Franz Fernidad joined him and slipped into his own set.
M.I.A. came out with “Bamboo Banger” and everybody’s jaws dropped to the ground because that bad bitch was soooooooooo PREGNANT! Nobody had a clue, I asked around. She rocked it though and was dancing just as hard as her hype girl. M.I.A. was blazing and looked absolutely beautiful.
They took another intermission and at this point I slipped to the middle of the room where there was this riser that some drunk crazy girl made a sling for me with her hands and hoisted me up. I was drunk, dancing and enjoying everything. Next thing you know some wack ass security comes and tells me to get down. Well at least I am not the only one he told this shit too. N.E.R.D came on so I had to make my way to the front and slowly but surely I was there. I had only one person between the front rail and me. The whole audience went ballistic. It was like we were at a Metallica concert everybody was jumping up and down. I was one smashed broad but I didn’t care. It was a fucking blast and as I walked out to go and find my friends all I heard was everybody laughing, screaming and saying how sick the event was.
