Trey Songz LIVE- Memphis, TN

Every lady in Memphis showed up to see Trey Songz LIVE. I’ve seen him perform in Memphis a few years ago and I really didn’t get much of a show since I was backstage. However, I do remember him ripping his t-shirt off…Anyhoo, this time I was front and center to enjoy all of his hits from Ready plus a few from Trey Day and I Gotta Make It. I haven’t seen a concert from the seats in a while and seeing girls excited to touch his shoe and grab his FIJI water gave me a good laugh; His fans are diehard! Trey put on a great show for Memphis and brought out special guest and hometown favorite YO GOTTI who performed “5 Star Chick” for all the ladies in the building. I counted about six guys in the place. Fellas you missed out on this one. It was nothing but lovely ladies in attendance.
