Enter MY Sandman

I'm going to see Metallica! I'm going to see Metallica! We've booked our tickets last night for their concert in Wembley. This is our first time to:
1. Go to a concert in London
2. To see Metallica
3. To see Wembley Stadium

It's also officially the first concert we'll watch since getting married 6 years ago... Grabe 'no?

But we will come prepared. As I already have the black album, I will be on the prowl at lunchtime for a collection of Metallica's Kill Em All and their St Anger albums -- hell yeah!!! I want to memorise their chorus(es) at least hehe

I feel like giggling and I want to jump & down. Perhaps hubby & I should start practising our slam dancing. I'm pretty sure my neck can still handle the headbanging. Too bad I'm due for a haircut I can't swing my long hair anymore (it will be a drastic short hair by Monday! YIPEE!).

The concert's not until July. I saw the advert on the first day they released it, I tore the page on the paper thinking I better show it to hubby, When I got home, he also has the same page torn for me! Match made in Heaven, eh? Everyday from then on, he kept on telling/reminding me to book it, book it. Alas I've no spare allowance left (due to the shop bug). So when I got my pay & a huge chunk was sent back to Pinas, to our mortgage etc., I came home to a husband who hijacked the TicketMaster site, not realising he cannot "hold" on to the tickets for more than 2 minutes (not very tech savvy).

When my account was debited at least £90, hubby then said in a low voice he also wants to see the Pet Shop Boys in May. I was tempted to say "sissy!" hehe But I like New Wave as well & it will ruin the mood. Though their tickets aren't as expensive, we decided against booking them. Afterall, our superhero's birthday is coming up & it's a HUGE bill. But between you & I, I'll try to skimp on my lunch money in April & see whether I could come up with the money for the "I'm with Stupid" guys.

5 chika:

That's flippin' awesome Auee! I'm not a big fan of Mettalica (except for the Enter Sandman song)but I think they're great :-)
And to watch it in Wembley...WoW! Last time I've seen a concert there was 8 years ago-- Alanis Morisette...
Enjoy and hope you post some photos...*wink* *wink*

Wow! That would be exciting! I used to be a fan of heavy rock but more of a fan of new wave. When I met my hubby more than decade ago (that long?)he was into jazz or jazz y tunes which I was beginning to appreciate then so our musical tastes blended. But an opportunity to watch Metallica? It wouldn't be missed. We have started to appreciate new wave again when mp3 cds were available. But of course, we do have some Styx and Aerosmith and GnR cds.

Hope you enjoy and be safe! You know how it is when fans get together for a concert, things can get too wild. And practice on the choruses na..:D

hi julie... Makakasundo mo si hubby pagdating sa New Wave, I think he has all the hitmakers of the 80's: Smiths, Pet Shop, etc...

Help! You lost me. Parang I am relearning the meaning of generation gap in this post. hahaha Paminsanminsan lang naman. My dream is to be able to watch a Diana Krall concert. That contemporary enough for you and pining and julie?
