Aerosmith + Invercargill..

YO YO YO!

On Wednesday the 24th April I sat in a car for 4 hours driving down to Dunedin to see AEROSMITH!! (As most of you will already know because I totally told you in the post before). And today, I shall share that experience and my journey to the land of the rolling r's with you all...



I packed the night before and dumped it all onto Tim's floor because I'm a lovely person like that, as you can see Tim is very excited to leave!! >.< So we threw my mess into the car and begun our journey down south.
Timmeh with his serious driving face and then us being silly buggers.

So we drove and drove and drove and it started raining and raining and raining until we arrived in good ol' Dunedin where we walked to the venue from Sean's house - okay cool story about Sean, so basically Matt from Cyanide & Happiness stayed at his house and drew all over their coffee table so they have comics on their table, SOOOO COOOL!



We were totally soaked by the time we got to the venue but SOOOOO EXCITED LIKE WOAH MAN!!! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧*:・゚✧

So first up were Diva Demolition who were kinda average but y'know, it must be exciting to open for an act like Aerosmith, unfortunately all my photos of them turned out poo because I wasn't overly into it BUT I found this nugget of gold...

CROCS! CROCS AT A ROCK CONCERT!! Nailed it.

Then Head Like A Hole rocked on up and they were hilariously hilarious.


And then Dead Daises (they had a cute guitarist) but they were all kinda old..


AND THEN OMG WOLFMOTHER LIKE YEAH BUDDY I LOVE WOLFMOTHER SO MUCH AND THEY WERE AMAZINGLY AMAZING LIKE THEY BURNT INCENSE AND SOUNDED PERFECT AND ALL LOOKED INCREDIBLE CAN I TAKE THEM HOME WITH ME PLEASE??!

They opened with Dimension and closed with Joker and The Thief which was absolutely incredible!! I wish they never ended, they played an hour set which was wicked, better than most opening acts and they played two new songs which I am very excited for when they are released!!!


And then it was time for Aerosmith, I TOUCHED STEVE TYLER GUYS HE CAME OUT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME I TOUCHED HIM!!

Steve Tyler has the biggest personality ever!! He is such an incredible performer, not sure how he is still alive because he is as old as buggery but boy was he incredible! He voice was like -melts- we even got the set list at the end too which is awesome!!! For the encore they pulled out the piano and played Dream On WHICH WAS AWESOME!! And I've totally had Cryin' stuck in my head since they played it..

After all the excitement we crashed on some couches before heading down to..


where I bought sooooooo much, like, wow, in so much debt right now but it was totally worth it


Tim looks happy to be home. We both bought awesome coats and caught up with all the family and I drove his car along the beach hehehe


I wish I could share all the photos and amazing vibes with you all but obviously that would take 150 years but I hope this post gave you an idea of how incredible it all was and I will definitely try to update more often!!

Rock on ^^

Update ft. countdown to Aerosmith!!

Hey guys, it's been a while!

Sorry about the lack of posting, had some domain issues and just general technobabble bullshit but all working now! (that's a lie, it's been working for a while I'm just a slack ass).

Finally the term is over, on holidays now but working a tonne! 33 hours this week already, just think of the money Alice. I'm pretty exhausted though, we started rehearsals for our production of Dreamgirls a few weeks ago, doing 7 - 10 hour weeks of singing and dancing O.O but it's so worth it! I've decided that's all I want to do anymore, sing and perform ^^ but I wouldn't mind to have a whole day off to sleep and recover. And I need to save my energy for...

AEROSMITH!!

That's right, Tim and myself in 8 days will be driving down to Dunedin for Aerosmith's Global Warming World Tour! We're are super duper excited!! They are being opened by Diva Demolition, Head Like A Hole, Dead Daises and drumroll please.. WOLFMOTHER!! I am so amped!! I've been listening to Wolfmother and Aerosmith non-stop for the past month, got all my words down >.< I'll also even do an outfit post for what I wear to the concert!

Following the concert we will drive down to Invercargill, Tim's home town (awwwwh), and stay there for 4 days (or something like that) to hang out with the fambam, meet his old friends (eeeeek) and show me round the town, I've never been before so I'm very excited! I will make sure to take heaps of photos and fill you guys in!! I'm gonna need a serious break after all this excitement!!

Once again, I apologise for the lack of blogging, I'm a poo like that, keep checking this page out for more updates and footage from the concert!

Bon nuit,
Alice.
