Arriving at 7 was not a good idea; we should have left at 5 because lining up around the corner was not good especially since it was pissing down. It’s funny it raining because it hadn’t rained all week, bloody typical in Melb.
Ohhh yeh and I forgot to bring my phone and camera; I was on the train when I realized I had neither…. bugger, bugger, bugger!!!!
Damn Smirnoff, $10 a bottle, damn frickin tax!!! Nearly $20 bucks for 2 drinks Fuck!!!
Merch looked good, picked up one for my mate who I’ll give to her for her birthday, one for baby and one for self.
Whitley wasn’t too bad though I did notice that there were a lot of people around me talking through his set. No wonder he said “shut the fuck up you stupid cunt” to the guy to the right of me who was just been a dickhead and yelling out whilst Whitley had started singing his first song. The guy yells back “I was only cheering you on”, Yeh nice try dickhead. Though after the song had finished Whitley did apologize to him twice through out the 30 min set. There was a girl been a complete dickhead at the James Blunt show I went to recently, calling out whilst James Blunt was talking so they were tufted out. I would've crack up if they had tufted him out!!! hahahahah.
My perfect spot was 3 rows from the front, but that was before I needed the toilet, when I came back my view was not the same and not as good. I was stuck behind th8is guy who had a big mop of hair and was 6 foot something. Why stand so close when you are so frickin tall buddy?? Then there was the selfish bitch beside me who kept putting her hands on her hips and therefore her elbow would touch my breast. Has this person not heard of personal space? (Remember dirty Dancing lady!!) She was obviously having trouble seeing though this huge giant in front of us so she decided to step up on to the step that was in front of us, but in disgust to the girl in front of me kept what looked like elbowing and shuffling to the side to stop this person from stepping up. I heard the woman beside be say, twice, “I’m not been pushed off, I’m not been pushed off”. She was pushed off. I can’t believe the nerve of some people!!!!
I also had someone behind me kicking bottles under my feet; Hubs said it was a girl beside him, he moved to block her view, which also stopped the bottle kicking hahahaha.
By the time Whitley had finished and the boys come on it was 9pm. They started with The Meter and Waiting for the sun, excellent choices boys. My kind of scene was played in the acoustic set, which I loved because I requested that one. Bernie almost missed the intro from talking and joking around, but it was still fantastic.
The songs I remembered the most were:
Waiting for the sun, loved it
The Meter
My kind of scene, loved it
Trading places
Pick you up, awesome guys
On my mind, excellent finish
Stumblin, frickin awesome
Lost in Bunnings wasn’t too bad either (did anyone sing lost in bunnings, damn I should have started that!!)
My happiness went off to
Since you've been gone was awesome
I was disappointed with the intermission/change of sets because the boys didn’t play for as long. The back drop was phenomenal, the second set however wasn’t as eye catching….it forced us to look at them instead of the gorgeous back drop…not good really!! 45 min for the 1st set I think it was, with around 15min for change over. Ohh yeh specking of change over, Bernie changed his shirt to a more bogan look for the second set. Bernie said the guys were in style tonight. Hah …well if you call tight black jeans and a black tee style that Bern your eyes need looking at. To me I’d call it the bogan look. Maybe he was thinking he’d step back in time with his style.
JC and Ian looked red hot, from what I could actually see of them. While DZ ….one thing comes to mind, Pippi longstocking (http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=iBp_wEdt iww) Hahahhaha :P Cogsy fitted nicely into that cool bogan look and Bernie commented on it too!! Cogs was on fire, full of comments, all of which I can’t remember now but he was comical. I couldn’t really hear DZ but he was on fire to, hell I could barely see DZ for most of the time. I should have worn my heals.
Was the encore one song or two songs, which ever it was too short guys, too short!!!!
I really did enjoy the night even with all the stupid crap going on around me, and so did hubs. I could hear him singing along to a couple of songs, which for him was pretty damn good.
I’m glad Bernie played his fire engine red guitar… awesome, awesome, awesome, loved that!!!!!
I’m just hoping the next gig I attend I’m not sick with a cold, hay fever thing going on.
I’m sore there is more but at this point I can’t remember.
