Amr Diab #1!!!!
by koki on 2011-09-28Ricoh Coliseum - TorontoWhat can be said about Amr Diab except he is #1. Ricoh Coliseum was packed, everyone was having so much fun and when Amr Diab finally appeared the house rocked! It was a strange mix for Arash to open for Amr Diab since they are two completely different artists, speak different languages and therefore the crowd was completely mixed (up)!!!! As an Amr Diab fan, I was confused when Arash performed and we sat in a section packed with Arash fans. It was more amusing to watch the fans more than the performance! The downside was, Arash's performance was late, therefore Amr Diab was later than we expected and his performance time was seemingly shorter than we had hoped. Our tickets read 7:30 so we purposely tried to be late but we were one of the first to arrive. Regardless of the bumps, I look forward to Amr Diab returning to Toronto...or perhaps the next time we see him perform, we will be back in Cairo :)
