Concert Bloggin' 29th May 2012

NKOTBSB, Burswood Dome, Perth, Western Australia

Well this was the concert that I have waited a lifetime for. I didn't find out what seats I had until I arrived. Thankfully they were only 5 rows from the stage & afforded a perfect view of all the guys :) I was facing the thrust & by a great coincidence, the area the guys mainly stopped & performed at!
  Obviously I was there for New Kids on the Block. They have been my favourite group since I was 11 (Poison, my other fave since I was 8!!) and I have dreamed of that moment when they appear on stage for all of those decades. It did not disappoint. There they were, my idols, in the flesh only a few metres away. I was a teenager again & I embraced it!! I could go on forever about the feelings that coursed through me (Donnie topless.. HELLO!!) but the moments that stand out for me are:

1. Donnie pointing directly at me as I took a picture. He even waited until he saw the flash!!! WAS AWESOME!! Unfortunately, the light behind him washed the shot out :(
2. Jon waving at me after I screamed out his name :) That boy has always been my fave.
3. Games.. one of my fave songs. Oh yeah!

Did I mention I GOT TO SEE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK?!!!!!!!

PS> I don't know what Nick Carter (BSB) is normally like, but he was on something. My sis in law is a cop & she took one look at him & was like, "he's being like Ben". 

Slow down..

Just a quick note to say that book reviews may slow down over next couple of weeks thanks to exams. Need to study so no time to read!
On another exciting note.. ONLY ONE MORE SLEEP TIL I GET TO SEE NKOTB!!!!! Only 22 years of waiting!!! I'm like a kid at Christmas!
