T.K.O...Justin Timberlake and The Tennessee Kids @The O2 arena, London

London 20.15. Showtime 20.30. 

With 15 minutes before showtime, Justin Timberlake's Manager announces that with regret, Justin Timberlake and The Tennessee Kids must cancel the show due to a throat problem. Tom Jones is promised as the replacement.
April Fool's Day! Although it could have been credible for some as the audience went wild after spotting Kylie Minogue and The Voice contestant Jamie Johnson.

The experience begins with mechanical graphics and digital numbers, a real vision of things to come. First Song? 'Pusher Love' performed right into the breakdown goes down a storm. 

The set list goes on to incorporate tracks from 'Justified' and 'FutureSex/LoveSounds' in between  several tracks from The 20/20 Experience such as 'TKO', latest release, 'Not a Bad Thing' and 'Murder.'

Boy did he kill it!

Hours of dancing and singing, thanks to opting for no support act, amazing lighting and graphics, and a performance of one of my favourite songs from The 20/20 Experience Part 1, 'Let The Groove Get in'. Many of us on level 1, centrally furthest from the stage, Block 106, got an even better view of JT as the stage glided slowly across the audience during this song. 

 'Everybody get down!' Just kiddin'. 

I had done a little homework and knew that something like this might go down.

Not only did JT and the dancers move across the new stage freely, he also took to sitting on either end, legs dangling while singing. Talk about trying to reach your fans!

But the technical aspects don't stop there. Clearly 'down to go to that level', (last reference to 'Murder', I promise but it's such a good jam) fans watched stairs unfold, allowing JT to take centre stage but also flatten out to include the bar as a walking platform. Time for a quick drink and mingling with fans.

Justin Timberlake performs again tonight at The O2 and in June. I would love to go again. No doubt tickets are gone but at least I've been there and got the tshirt....and mug....and keyring...and programme. What?

If you ever get the chance to see Mr JT live, do it! You'll be left dizzy by his footwork and totally knocked out by his voice.
