I thought it was pretty ace too

[Lulu]

Well she had the time of her life - a little put off by the smelly moshpit though .

To paraphrase " Ah mum, it was totally AWESOME, the moshpit smelled gross but it was fun except for the old smelly guy next to me he had the worst BO and his arm kept touching mine I'm gonna scrub my arm till it bleeds he was so gross it was SO LOUD it was so cool Artreyu was cool but when Bullet came in everyone went mental and I nearly got squashed at the front so we had to go down the back when can I go to the next gig I'm gonna get a job tomorrow so I can go to every gig in the world......

I sortea faded out after that (yes she does talk that fast).

I remember sleeping out for G n R tix about 1989, the Bros concert had been on the weekend before. There were still marquees at the tennis centre, and some of the guys found a locked fridge full of beer - they "made" me reach up and get it 'cos I had such skinny arms.....aah the memories!

Oh LULU2, it's so brilliant to hear your daughter had a super time

... And that you helped give her, her 1st concert experience to remember FOREVER & talk about it in years to come like WE still do

[suse]

Awww, that's soooo, like, cool Lulu!!! () Sounds like she had a blast. Give it time though - she'll grow to love the smell of a good moshpit... or at least won't notice it so much. Assuming it was an all ages / alcohol free event, at least she didn't have to contend with the p***sed bloke not noticing that he was spilling his beer all down her back. I used to come home from gigs smelling like a brewery, and I don't even drink beer.

LOL at seeing the Gunners preggo LimeSlice - Euan's 'first' gig when I was five months pregnant was the Live Earth concert - we got free tickets. His dad was at Crowded House's last gig at the opera house, and we were all at their first gig reformed.

We wanted to go to a gig on Friday night, but it was at a non-baby friendly venue so not an option unfortunately.

I was at the Gunners concert too. So was DH but we hadn't met yet The bogan got on the news being after being interviewed after it. His mum has the tape still

I saw INXS at Festival Hall. Was a great night!

[suse]

Did he have a mullet Sammi?

I was at the same BDO as my future DP and saw his very nice bum wiggling across a crowded dance floor and thought, well, something rather gratuitous anyway, and was about to go and see whether that gratuitous thought was worth following up up on when he disappeared. Oh well, I thought.

We met and got together four years later and were out on a dance floor one night when I realised that this was the same very nice bum I had seen so many years ago (I recognised the wiggle). FWIW, it was worth following up on - we've been together six and a half years now!!

Sorry, that was very OT...

[Lulu]

Noice Suse!

Well while we are off topic, I met a rather long haired bloke at the GnR concert at the tennis centre. We went out for a little while but went our separate ways. I ran into him about 5 years ago, short hair, suit and a PORSCHE......

[Aimz]

Glad to hear she had a great time! I guess I am a different generation because my very first concert was when I was 12 and I was one of 20,000 screaming girls vying for the chance to see OH MY GOD Hanson (oh the shame of it) at Southland in Melbourne. I was somewhere near the back and could barely see the blonde haired specs off in the distance but I cried my eyes out when they started playing and I vowed from that day forward that I would marry Taylor Hanson. Oh the memories.

You can imagine the s**t I cop at home seeing as DH is and always has been a Metallica die hard. And here is little old me with a whole shoebox of Hanson stuff hehehehehehehe

[suse]

Damn Lulu!! (My DP doesn't even have his driver's licence, so no porsche for me!! A skateboard doesn't count I don't think)
