Maybe she was temporarily disoriented by the horrific glare of so many frightenly disfigured smiles? /hates british teeth, urgh.

She may as well play Tel Aviv and shout, "What's up, historical land of the Palestinian people? Death to Isreal!!!"

I give her credit for shouting a city that is at least in the same country...

Thank heavens she hasn't lost that alluring ignorance.

I don't know. I'm somewhat sorry that she didn't open the show with a hearty "HELLO, CLEVELAND!!"

How could she mix it up? Manchester's practically her last name...

I don't get it, but I'm drunk and not hip to all the Britney or even English shiat (other than Top Gear and even that's questionable).

I don't really care as long as I got the music I paid to see - like the time Joe Walsh showed up drunk 2 hours late for a gig at a bar wearing a fake Indian (sorry, Native American - oh fark-it - it was Indian) headdress complete with fake feathers. He didn't know where the hell he was, but he played for...I don't know 45 minutes at least.

He could have said "What's up Phnom Penh?" for all I cared. If you expect your rock (or pop) stars (or tarts) to understand geography, you're not there to enjoy the show.

Yeah, didnt think she was that smart. Maybe she landed in london then drank all the way to manchester?

/how the hell is she still selling out arenas?
//people in europe cant blame this on the US since she sells out over there as well

Cleveland would have been closer to Manchester than London... see Cleveland, England

If "you're", not "your", thicko, not a Manc then chances are you are employed and not so much of a pissed up smack head/failed criminal!!

Meh. When I was a touring musician back in the 90's, I was lucky to know what city/time zone/country I was in half the time. It happens more often than you think. It's the tour manager's job to let the talent know where they are.

If you think this is ridiculous, try living out of a suitcase, on tour buses & airplanes, never seeing the light of day for a couple of years. After the show, typically you don't sleep till 6 or 7 A.M., then spend the day traveling to the next spot, and waking up sometime in the late afternoon in yet another hotel room. They all start to look the same after a while.

Not defending her, just saying what it's like being a touring musician. Luckily, I wasn't the one who had to address the crowd.

I can dig it, but I'll say this. Shows like that are like a one night stand. If you're not sure about the name (of the city, of the girl), don't use the name.

True. That's always the best bet. Just the perfunctory, "What's up? How you doin' tonight? ... this next song is gonna suck just as much as the last one did, and I'm gonna lip sync this too!"

Yeah, same here. I'm sure Britney Spears is probably as dumb as a box of rocks, but this probably isn't necessarily the thing to pick on her for.

Many people who travel make these mistakes, even intelligent people. My favorite is John Kerry having a rally in Michigan and professing his love for Ohio State.

But Britney isn't a musician. Hell, she's not even doing the singing....

Her tits are looking OK in that white turtleneck, but you have to keep telling yourself this is Britney Spears.

You can take the girl out of the trailer.....

London - Manchester it's like Wisconsin and Michigan. Not really worth noting the differences.

Sure someone has. They're in a case labeled, "In case of comeback tour, break glass".

They are fairly new. Have you seen the Megan Fox ones? wwtdd.com took them down, but you can still find them. There are pasties over the nipples though. Nice landing strip.

I came here to suggest that it was the United shirts that confused her.

Subsonicmonkey 2009-06-20 01:35:06 AM  
A good tour manager will have masking tape at the top of every stage monitor with the name of the city written on it.

Now, being that Britney isn't singing live, and probably has in-ear monitors to hear the music so she can feebly shake her butt, there are no floor monitors...

 
JerkyMeat 2009-06-20 02:40:12 AM  
It's probably like playing Bakersfield and greeting Los Angeles.

A little maybe, but I did see that movie with the American who went to England and became a football hooligan (the name escapes me at the moment, but it was all wharrgarbl, sort of how Broncos fans feel about Raiders fans and how Raiders fans stab people in their stadium.)
