Nickelback Concert :: May 5th, 2006

The concert was really great. We had a really good time rockin’ away just the two of us. Stage presence was pretty cool, there was some pretty impressive pyrotechnics and to top it off Melly bought me a Nickelback T-Shirt.

Security was pretty tight, more so than any other concert I’ve been to in the past actually. You should have seen how many times I got frisked by the security guards… Mostly because we kept forgetting things. First I realised that the pair of fold-up scissors on my keyring wouldn’t make it through security, this came to me as I was standing in line….back to the car. Second try they wouldn’t let Melly take in her handbag because it was too big, so I took that back to the car also. Third time around we forgot the tickets… I was starting to think I wouldn’t actually make it in to see the concert, but we eventually got things sorted.

The tickets Melly got us landed us right up close to the stage, so that was awesome, could even feel the heat off the stage fires and fireworks. One of the coolest things I thought was how the stage crew had compressed-air canons that they used to shoot T-Shirts into the crowd. That was a nice touch I thought.

Took us an hour to get out of the carpark, but people were really nice about it so that was ok. Melly did some knitting while we waited. My wife is such a nerd. I love her for it though.
