100,000

Friday, July 18th, 2008

I have literally just scrobbled my 100,000th track since I joined Last.fm on 27 December 2005 meaning I have played an average of 107 tracks a day.

The song that got the privilege to be song #100,000 was Unit It Sleeps by Metallica, more specifically it was the S&M version.

Iron Maiden Live at Twickenham Stadium

Friday, July 18th, 2008

So nearly two weeks ago I went to see Iron Maiden perform at Twickenham Stadium in London, it was the only UK date on their world Somewhere Back in Time tour. They were supported by Lauren Harris, Within Temptation, and Avenged Sevenfold. I was located towards the rear of the stadium in the stands, where we were plagued by poor sound for all of the support acts and occasionally during Maidens performance itself, the atmosphere when Maiden were playing more than made up for this. With the crowd chanting every lyric with passion, even Bruce was left speechless. Another highlight was I listed to Churchill twice in one day :)

The set list was as follows:

Bon Jovi Live in Concert

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Last night I went with my sister and her friend to see Bon Jovi live at Ashton Gate, Bristol. It was an absolutely fantastic gig, the support act (a local band), switchbladeuk, were not that great personally and it was a shame that The Feeling were not supporting. The set list was what you would expect from Bon Jovi with a surprise thrown in, producing a smashing 2 hours of audible pleasure. I also kinda forgot to mention I got to go on stage, for an entire three songs You Give Love a Bad Name, Summertime, and Raise Your Hands because my sister won a competition.
