The iconic piano riff of “La boda” played next, welcomed by more screams that nearly drowned out the priest’s words off the fan favorite. The music didn’t stop, not to speak or to acknowledge the screams of gratitude, as the band played through “Mi nina cambio” and “Por un segundo,” respectively.Īfter those first three, the band paused to say hello a little more properly, thanking Houston for having them back so soon after their Valentine’s Day show. “WELCOME TO AVENTURA’s WORLD!” was the greeting Anthony Romeo Santos yelled out to the crowd as he and the boys were lowered from their riser. So many women screaming for Romeo, I thought at least one was being murdered. Most were holistic shouts and howls of excitement and joy. The roar of screams reaching inhuman pitches drowned out all sound, something I’d yet to experience in my years of concerts at the Toyota center. “K.O.B.! Give us our crown!” | Photo by Cynthia Isabel Zelaya Ordonez Instead, the house lights went down, and the volume of the Toyota Center’s screams went up.īright blue LEDs bathed the stage, the first notes of “El desprecio” were heard, and a rectangular set piece was lifted, revealing Aventura underneath. But they kept themselves entertained, meeting new people and singing along to the hits the DJ played, a nice blend of classics and current Latin Top 40.įinally, the song playing over the speakers wasn’t followed by another. After 9 o’clock came and went, the audience’s anticipation began to grow rapidly. Like Queen, Guns ‘N’Roses, and Beyonce, Aventura is a band large enough that they don’t need an opening act.

They were dressed to kill full glam, stiletto heels, glittering dresses, everything!Īlthough the female side of the fanbase was strongest in both size and passion, the men were fast behind in sequined jackets, three-piece suits, and glitzy streetwear. A good 90% arrived dressed to the nines, especially the ladies. Although all seating was assigned, many arrived before doors opened. That’s right, the boys are back for round 2. Los reyes de la bachata flaunt their throne for a Houston crowd on Sunday night.
