Last night at the last minute I decided to go see a concert from a new up and coming artist Kerli, and I must say I am very glad I went!
Doc and Kerli after the show
Local radio station 101.9 the end put this together and billed it as the “Creepy Lil Halloween Ball” named after one of her popular songs “Walking on Air”. Before the show started the radio station held a costume contest (I did not enter). It was a great way to kick off Halloween 2008.
Kerli has had great response from fans here in Utah and she said over and over during her show how much she loves to come here. I really do not believe that statement to be false as she stayed after the show for 2 plus hours to sign autographs, take pictures and hug each and every fan (I was one of the last in line).

The concert started off with a super rendition of “Creepshow” from her album “Love is Dead”. Here you can see a shot of her actual backstage play list!
The Kerli Concert Playlist
The highlight of the night performance wise was when she sang her most recent released song “Strange Boy”. The crowd of approximately 500 really got into this one, and the fans up front were standing and jumping up and down with the beat.
Honestly I did not know what to expect with this show or Kerli as an artist, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised and last night I became a Kerli fan!

So when I finally got up to have my poster and newly acquired CD of hers signed, she took a few pictures with me, and wrote a nice little comments on both items, and offered I think 3 (beyond genuine) hugs. This girl really does appreciate her fans.
If you have not had a chance to checkout this up and coming artist Kerli, I suggest you head to her website and check her out pronto.
Until next post…
