Catching The Bieber Fever

This weekend was no ordinary weekend for Calgarian teen Danyka, who won AMP Radio’s Bieber Fever Contest. Danyka was the very ecstatic winner of a trip to Toronto to see Justin Bieber in concert!

Now AMP Radio was not just going to let this chance to celebrate all things Bieber pass by and they definitely made sure it didn’t. About two thousand teens (and some moms) with Bieber Fever packed themselves into Eau Claire Market Plaza on Saturday to enter themselves into the draw, sign AMP Radio’s Bieber Banner that was sent to Justin Bieber himself and get their photo taken with AMP Radio’s “Alternative Bieber”. Now all this Bieber in the sun wouldn’t have been much fun without local band, Seventh Rain, who entertained the crowd with songs from their CD’s “The Ghost In Me” and “BYDA” and they even included a cover of JB’s current hit song “Baby”.  Check out the rough copy I was able to capture.

“Baby, baby, baby ohh! I thought you’d always be mine…” (Sorry, it’s just SO catchy!) Now with 2000 Bieber Fans you can imagine the energy was high and when Danyka’s lucky name was called you could hear a few groans from the girls beside you. The line up for entering the contest wrapped itself around the plaza and while I rocked out to Seventh Rain and awaited to hear who the lucky winner was going to be I snapped a few photos to try and bottle up the excitement.
