AC/DC in Sydney


Geoff

Recommended Posts

Just want to send out a big public thanks to our very own Justin (member name Farenheit) for a really cool evening last night. The poor bastard was left with a spare ticket to AC/DC in Sydney after buying 2 tickets up in Brisbane. As he still had this spare ticket he kindly offered it to me even though I expressed an inability to pay for it, and the rest is history!

 

As people here may know, I'm no wild AC/DC fan, nor do I even own a single CD from them, but funnily enough I knew every single song they played, lol, bar maybe one or two. It was a HUGE show too and can I get a hell yeah for "titty cam" which made a very, very unexpected appearance several times last night. Here I was thinking AC/DC were a family band. :lol: Anyway, thanks to all the sexy trollops for getting their norks out and making a good night even better.

 

Band was good - very solid - despite the 20min guitar solo or however long he went on for, lol... but yeah, good show. Got to have a few drinks with Justin too. Now met, from HH, Lindsay, Matt (regrettably) and Justin - all absolute top fellas... except that Matt guy. Haha.

 

But yeah, just want to say again, a HUGE thanks to Justin for the kind offer. Hope you got home alright last night, mate. And enjoy the rest of your stay in Sydney! :)

Sounds like you had a good time (despite AC/DC). :whistle:

 

Very cool of Justin to invite you along. That is part of what makes this a great little community. I guess nobody had told Justin :geoffadillos:

Your all bastards.

What did you do on Monday night, Matt? You enjoy 'Desperate Housewives'?

 

HAHA!

 

HA!

 

HAHAHA!

 

Seriously, can you buy me a Stryper ticket please? Then we can hug again.

 

And yeah, it was great. Definitely not an opportunity that comes by often in a lifetime, which is why Justin is so awesome.

It was a great show. Would've been nice to get up closer but with 70,000 people in that stadium it was just impossible.

I managed to get back to the hotel in 35 minutes - got a train straight away back to to Parra then a big line of taxi's were waiting - about $12 all up. Was very happy with that.

Best song of the night I thought was 'Let There Be Rock' but yeah that guitar solo went on a bit. And they played 'You Shook Me' too early. One song I would have loved to hear that they didn't play was 'Who Made Who'.

Glad you enjoyed it Geoff. Nice to catch up and have a few drinks too. :)

35mins? Awesome. I think that was even quicker than it took me, but not by much. Public transport to/from the event, that I saw, was fantastic! Nice change for once. :lol:

    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
