Hilary and Haylie Duff Rock the Palace

by Jason Rzucidlo

Hilary Duff. She's been on Lizzie McGuire. She's been in the movies. She's made some CDs. Yesterday, the teen superstar along with her sister, Haylie rocked the Palace of Auburn Hills.

First, our local hit music station, 93.1 DRQ had a table on stage. A DJ was spinning music for the crowd. I don't know why this was happening maybe they were trying to get more listeners.

The stage was set up on one end of the Palace. The other end was for people to sit. It was not in the middle like for some concerts.

Haylie Duff came on first. She sang four songs. I don't know any of them because she doesn't have a CD out yet. It was hard to hear her at all because of all the little girls screaming.

Then, there was about a 20 minute intermission.

Hilary Duff came on next. She opened up with the song "Girl Can Rock." She was the best. I could not believe this was the moment I was waiting for. She sang all her famous songs including "Why Not?", "Come Clean," and "So Yesterday." The only song that she didn't do was "Sweet Sixteen."

Duff also sang about three songs from her new album. It will be released on September 28, 2004. As of this moment, she hasn't named it yet. It was amazing. Almost everyone was standing from when she came on until she left. People were screaming, dancing and just havin a good time.

How many people are on TV, movies and in the music business. I can only think of one name, Hilary Duff. Look for a new movie from Hilary in October!!

After she was done, there was a 5 minute break. Then, Haylie came out to join her sister on stage. They sang the song "Our Lips are Sealed" from the soundtrack to "A Cinderella Story." They did an awesome job.

Then, Haylie went away. Hilary came back to sing two more songs. I'm not sure if they were new songs because I didn't recognize them.

There was so many souvenirs to buy at this concert. The most I've ever seen. There was about 10 different kind of T-shirts that you could buy. There was a 2005 calendar, purse, and about five posters.

You could also buy an autographed picture that came in a frame. There was lightsticks. People were waving them during the show. There was also lanyards with a little Hilary Duff ID badge.

In addition, there was a spot for you go get your picture next to a Hilary statue. It was made of paper but it looked just like her. You could stand there and they would take your picture and print it right there in like a minute.

The souvenirs didn't stop when you left the building. Along the road to I-75, people were selling more Hilary T-shirts! I've never seen so much fan appreciation.

I bought a T-shirt that has Hilary Duff's picture on the front and the Most Wanted Tour scheduled on the back. It was $30.00. I also bought an autographed picture which came in a frame for $5.00.

If you get the opportunity to see Hilary Duff, take it! You will thank me. She is the best singer in the world. You will cry when its over. She is that good.

Hilary Duff..Thank you for coming to Detroit!!
