anysiaexcept for the crappy sound system and the venue
I know that sounds redundant (how can it be good if those were bad). The band made up for it by encores, and pure energetic concert. They RAWKED the house!
They took my camera at the door and made me check it in. Walked into Challenge Stadium, only to find out the tickets,which when purchasd was given a row and seat number, were SRO tickets. Excuse me??? Imagine if you will, me standing (or is that trying to stand) on a concrete floor for 3+ hours. Not... Happy... Jan! So, after threatening to moon them to show surgical scar as to reason I can't stand for three or more hours, I was given a chair, along with a few others who had gotten their tickets with Seat and Row #s, only to find out they are standing. I had a clear view of the stage, no heads in the way at all!
Remember they made me check my camera in at the door? I almost had Retina Flash Burns from cameral flash after camera flash. You should have seen the cameraphones! could have lit the place up with them.
After being almost blinded by camera flashes all over the place, I thought it was highly unfair, so went and got mine. I slipped out on pretext of "my earsarekillingme'. Tweetybird marched to the claim area Got camera case, put on UNDER my coat, and walked back in.
Took 24 pics, only about 16/18 are really any good.
So, Michael Hutchence..RIP you are missed, but INXS goes on.
I will be making a gallery of photographs, but here are 7 shots, scaled down for easy viewing even with dial up.
INXS Concert, Sept 12th 2006, Challenge Stadium.
At the end of the concert, they promised to come back. Good bunch of mostly Perth Boys. :D
