The crowd as it awaits the concert.
Jeness's 30 minute set was very energetic, lively and spiritual.
Jenee performed songs off her CD including , "Freedom."

Love this pic. Jenee with the Jenettes and Mr. Al.
The crowd was clenched in Jenee's set.
Wildmann getting his moment on stage.
Jenee closed her show with her inspirational song, "Pushin." She explained to the crowd that the song was done on a whim and has two versions produced by two of the members of the concert band, one being Wildmann. She
prefaced her song with a "pastoring" mostly with the encouraging words of the despair that may be going on in one's life and what one may be going through in life, you gotta keep pushin.
Jenee was enthralled in her message.
"Keep on pushin!"

After a 20 minute break, it was time for headliner, Solange.
Her all-white male band dressed in pink velvet suits started out with a rift from , "Theme from Shaft," then her two backyup singers sashayed up to the stage, then one heard Solange's voice in the background saying, "Lose all your troubles. This is real music." Next, she walked up on stage with her band to jam up songs from her latest CD, "Sol-Angel and the Hadley Street Dreams."
She performed songs including, "Disco Sandcastle."
Her look could be described as urban rock chic.
Even through a few technical difficulties with her sound on the mike (and the technicians working diligently with her mike pack ) Solange held her own on stage.
She told the lighting director, "Dim the lights. I wanna see the people, too."
Solange also performed a rocked out rendition of No Doubt's "Love Me," showcasing her influences of dance rock music.
Solange gettin into the pulse of the moment.
Solange connected with her fans...
....as well as her band members...
A shot from the crowd P.O.V.
The crowd enjoyin the concert.
Solange and her backup girls in Supremes hand gesture mode.
Solange also performed "Cosmic Journey" from her "Sol-Angel" CD.

Based on her fans reaction at the concert, Solange was a hit.
A long shot of the concert stage.
NOTE: We left midway during Solange's set to attend Jimmelle's b-day party (SEE OUT 596), but from what we gathered , it was about 300 ish who attended the concert (and we are sure Solange performed her hit, "I Decided,"too. LOL)
LATER ON THAT NITE...................
Solange made an appearance at Lush during Monopoly Promotions Best Damned Fridays Period. The event was produced by LooseCannon. Here, she is posed with its co-host/Best Damned creator Mocha Latte (Is it us or could Mocha and Solange pass as kinfolk. LOL)
Solange upstairs in VIP gettin her party on. We heard that she requested the dee-jay to play all music artists from New Orleans.
