Pink concert
As a treat for my wife, we went to the Pink concert. The music was pretty average. I counted one man to every eighteen women. The best moment was just before the concert started when we heard through the pa Whitesnake's Here I Go Again at full volume. It's a great song, and it was a treat to hear the original version with Bernie Marsden on guitar. Coverdale sang the original words "like hobo I was born to walk alone". In later versions he changed this to "like a drifter …". He worried that the public would mishear the word 'hobo' and think that the song was about a gay man and loneliness.
In life, don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff.

Re: Pink concert
she was wandering round the farmers market and train station with her kids the morning of the concert... not a fan but have to say she was utterly charming

Re: Pink concert
Lots of women here at softball training clucking about the concert, hilarious listening to some of the comments

My wife’s on her way with a mate to Akl now to see her. She likes Pink, will have a great time and sing along to all the words. And that’s what a concert should be all about.

Over priced tickets
Over priced beer
Poor sound
Smelly people
No matter where you stand a 8 foot quim stands in front
Queuing at the bar
Queuing for a piss
Better support bands
Hit in the face by a bottle

Big concerts are exactly that, I was standing in the crowd at G'n'R at Western Springs last year thinking "why the fuck is this fun, again?".Olderama wrote:I thought concerts were all aboutnull_pointer wrote:My wife’s on her way with a mate to Akl now to see her.

Small clubs when the band and crowd are going off is still awesome though.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Then I go to Roger Waters at the Vector Arena and come away realising I've just had the best concert experience of my life.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
