WHERE MUSIC RULES AND WE PITY THE FOOLS

A long time coming...

Posted about 1 year ago
When was the last concert you went to? Real concert, big stage, lights and towering amps, not the local pub band. For me it was back in about 1993. I went to see ZZ Top in Milton Keynes with Bryan Adams supporting. The afternoon was taken up with Little Angels and Thunder (although we were late arriving due to a bust radiator). It was a great day, one of the hottest that year, and I remember it clearly even now.15 years later and I finally get around to going to another concert. This time it's a small(ish) venue. The Arena at Oxford's Carling Academy. This morning 2 tickets arrived on my doormat.I'll be taking my cousin to see Electric Six, a band that I understand to be really entertaining live. Even after all these years the thought of seeing a band live sets my nerve endings alight with anticipation. It's been far too long and by god am I looking forward to seeing a proper live act again!

  1. brittanybf says Man, oh man. Reading this makes me wish I was going to a big concert! I've missed a lot of good shows in the past year or more, though my last concert was Red Hot Chili Peppers, who always put on a good show. By the sounds of the Electric Six, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun seeing them live. I'll have to live vicariously :)

  2. Alien8n says Due to a series of unfortunate circumstances I've not been able to go to this gig. However as a consolation prize I will be going to the Download Festival this year for the first time... Oh well, Download looks like a lot more fun anyway...
