Miami, Florida… Welcome to The Formation Tour http://share.glide.me/lovely/o633iv9i
On April 27, THE FORMATION WORLD TOUR kicked off its North American concert leg in Miami, Florida at Marlins Park to a sold out stadium. Following her release of her visual album Lemonade, BEYONCĂ wowed fans in Miami by performing 35 songs featuring her hits both old and new. THE FORMATION WORLD TOUR, promoted by Live Nation, presented by American Express and produced by Parkwood Entertainment is the most visually creative concert I have ever seen.
Â
That visual album may be a poetic musical tribute to the strength and spiritual power of the black woman but people of all ages, shades and sexuality categories filled the stadium.
Beyhive members came dressed in all black, or donned lemon yellow outfits. Some even wore IVY PARK apparel, the new activewear brand co-founded by Beyoncé.
THE FORMATION WORLD TOUR is BEYONCĂ’s first solo tour since her ambitious Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in 2013. The sold-out tour spanning two years and five continents thrilled nearly two million fans and was hailed by critics worldwide. During the summer of 2014, BEYONCĂ and JAY Z launched the six-week ON THE RUN Tour (if you missed my review of that amazing tour, see here), playing major stadiums in the US. They ended the tour in Paris, France in September 2014 with two additional dates that were filmed for an HBO Special that was nominated for an Emmy Award.
DJ Khaled along with surprise performances by Lil Wayne, Future, Rick Ross, Yo gotti , 2chainz and Miami’s own Trick Daddy warmed up a crowd that needed no warming up. They were here to see their Queen. The energy was palpable. Anticipation was high. As she appeared center stage on what I think has to be the most massive tour set ever created the crowd lost their collective minds.
For those of you planning to go to The Formation World Tour, here is a bit of what you will experience:

Beyonce and her dancers get in âFormationâ …I promise you won’t be âSorryâ ! The performances are âFlawlessâ !
You will be reminded who âRun the Worldâ, why Beyonce Giselle Knowles-Carter is a global icon and a favorite artist to many ( at least she is âMineâ) and that dancing to âBaby Boyâ is good for the soul!

âHold Upâ..I know many of you have started a âCountdownâ to when Queen B comes to your town so I am keeping the specific details of the tour between âMe, Myself and Iâ. That way there are no spoilers âRunninââ thru your mind âAll Nightâ.
“Don’t Hurt Yourself” or âRing the Alarmâ when you bear witness to Beyonce being a âNaughty Girlâ live in concert.
She is indeed an âIndependent Womanâ, a âDivaâ who proudly announces when she is âFeeling Myselfâ.

âYonce” continues to go thru her repetoire of hits such as â7/11â ,
âDrunk in Loveâ ,âRocketâ, âDaddy Lessonsâ. She invited 2 women up on the stage to perform âSingle Ladiesâ alongside her. The crowd went âCrazy in Loveâ for all the “Bootyliciousâ dance moves!

Miami heat continued to rise during her red hot performances of âNaughty Girlâ
, âPartyâ, âBlowâ, “Nasty Girlâ,
âSweet Dreams /Beautiful Nightmareâ.
The audience was given the opportunity to pay tribute to Prince while singing along to “Purple Rain”. With lighters, well cell phones in the air, people were singing and swaying side to side under the purple glow of love. That is what music does. It unifies people. That is what Beyonce wants for us all to get in Formation and love one another.
The final set is where we in attendance got to witness a miracle.( ok, I guess I will give one spoiler). Some say Jesus walked on water, well Beyonce danced on it while singing âFreedomâ , âSurvivorâ (Destiny’s Child member Michelle Williams was there sitting nearby in the beehive) ,âEnd of Time, âGrown Womanâ and âHaloâ.
Her set list really showcased all her vocal talents and amazing choreography.
Beyonce thank you for allowing us to be apart of your dream. You shared that as a little girl you wanted to entertain and sell out stadiums. Well you are doing that and more while still remaining humble. You have not only stopped the world, you are changing the world thru your art. This tour is one not to be missed!
