Announcement
First of all, thanks to the boys at Maxies that let us hop on their bus for the trip down to the concert. Bus driver Keith was a little intense but he did manage to get everyone there and back so good job.
Also, special thanks to Nikki for making the 200 jello shooters for the ride down. Making the shooters must of been exhausting though as she decided to have a little sleep once we pulled into Regina. Sadly, this sleep lasted 4 hours which caused her to miss the concert altogether. No worries Nikki, it was just the best concert ever so you didn't miss to much!
Arriving at the stadium, we stood in the mile long line to get in and then had to throw a few elbows to get through the stupidly long beer line up. Hate to say it but those were some of the tastiest $6.00 beers I've ever had!
Prior to the show starting, we were treated with the Snow Birds making a few passes over the stadium. The crowd was literally on its feet and the Snow Birds headed off into the distance with 40,000 people cheering like you wouldn't believe.
Finally, ACDC hit the stage and of course opened with the hit Runaway Train. This was one of the best openings I have ever seen and the show only got better from there. They played a few of their new songs however the crowd went wild with such classics as TNT, For Those About To Rock and the ever popular Hells Bells. For a 61 one year old guy Brian can still blast out the tunes and he kept the crowd on its feet for the entire show. Angus of course did not dissappoint and he ran all over that stage like he was still in his twenties. I could go on and on but will just summarize with, BEST CONCERT EVER!
The only negative thing about the whole night was that they ran out of beer at the concert by 10:00pm. Comeon people, 40,000 fans and you don't think that maybe, just maybe you should have extra beer on hand? Give your heads a shake...................
Anyhow, twas the show of a lifetime and worth every penny. ACDC, they definately still got it!
