Backstage with Mariah

Mariah Carey supported by two keyboarders, a bass player and three vocalists gave her long awaited performance at Dubai's Media City. It was a cold and windy night and a seemingly endless queue of people streamed during two and half hours at a slow rate of about sixty persons per minute into the fenced off lawn near the pond. A half an hour into the announced start of the show, they opened a second gate and the crowd flooded the grand stand and the area in front of the stage where the most enthusiastic fans stood.

These admirers had waited for this moment in time, cheering madly throughout the show, knowing to sing along every word she sang and "feeling as one". Farther away and on the sides others watched and listened more quietly as this magnificent show of perhaps the biggest American music product from the unforgettable area that ended as the last millennium unfolded. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dubai, I appreciate you coming here for the evening, I love you Dubai, I dedicate this song to you: Hero." Fans too shouted their appreciation back - "Thank you Mariah, we love you too."
