For those about to rock (we salute you)

I think the last time I updated this, Moby Dick was a minnow. It was about Christmas and now it's just about Valentines day...oops. Well, this post is about a concert that happened on January 31st so I'm not too far behind. Nothing too interesting happened during January so I didn't write about it. On to the fun things....

For those of you who don't know, AC/DC is an amazing band from Australia that's been around for forever. They sing such hits as TNT, Shook Me All Night Long and Back in Black just to name a few. This was really exciting for us!

I even had an AC/DC t-shirt for the occasion.
As usual, Nicole didn't feel well and got a headache. She ended up leaving me and Manuel at the front in order to go lay down in first aide for a while.
So then it was just the two of us while the first two bands were on.
But good news! Nicole actually pushed her way through the crowd in order to get allll the way to the front of the barricade which is where we were. This is not an easy task I can assure you.
I'm pretty proud of some of these pictures, we were really close and there was no one in front of us!
The camera was on zoom...we weren't this close.
This is Angus, he's insane on the guitar and he has so much energy for an old guy!
We're blue!!
This is with no zoom. We got there early...as you do for something you're excited about...and there was like no one there. These kiwis have no sense of urgency, they just showed up whenever. We were in a good spot though being right up front because we didn't get toooo squished in the mosh pit.
This was right before he left the stage so Angus could do his guitar solo.

This was like a 20 minute epic solo. His fingers moved so fast!
And he was sweaty.
Manuel was excited about his t-shirt that he bought, AC/DC is his favorite band of all time.
This is the mess of the stadium after the concert. I would sure hate to be the one to clean all of that up! Oh, and in case you are an Edward fan, he didn't come to the show because we didn't take any bags in and I was just too afraid of loosing him because that would have been tragic!
