Janet Jackson concert review

Janet Jackson performed her Rock Witchu concert during the weekend at the Bank of Oklahoma Center in Tulsa. 

She had recently postponed several concerts throughout the country due to an illness.  So prior to the concert, I admit, I was nervous about whether she would become ill again, or whether she would be healthy enough to put on a good show.

As soon as she walked onto the stage and began performing, my fears were to put rest.

Donning a Mohawk hairstyle, Janet opened the show with her 1987 hit “What Have You Done For Me Lately.” She then performed a few recognizable songs including “You Want This,” “Alright” and “Miss You Much.”

Afterward Janet did a brief costume change and returned to the stage in a sultry red dress to perform a string of ballads including “Come Back To Me” “Again” and “Lets Wait Awhile.”

After another wardrobe change, she came back out to perform a mixture of old and new songs including “So Excited” “Together Again”  “Nasty Boys,” “Escape” “Thats The Way Love Goes” “Love” and “Rhythm Nation.

When it came time to perform her duets with Nelly, Q-Tip and Dave Navarro, the three musicians appeared on a pre-recorded video and performed their verses while Janet sang on stage.
