Hi Jude,

It just goes to show that you are never too old at any age to go to concerts :-D
Im glad your Sister enjoyed herself, I know someone of a similar age who went and they had a great time with their family.

My Neice saw the show in Manchester. It rained but she had a great time.
i work for a large employer and a lot of staff are off to watch Take That .

My Daughter is in Milton Keynes today watching the Foo Fighters :-)

We still go to concerts and are taking daughter to see the Specials in london in the Autumn. That will take me back to my youth!

Jude,

Seal was good and it was a small concert just a 1500 - 2000 so you were right there in front of him.

If you like that kinda "budda bar" sound try Orelha negra a good track is Miriam or Since you been gone both can be found on utube

Hello Big....l forgive you:o))
Would love to see Seal, don't know about the others and not heard of Orelha negra :o(( you can rap my knuckles now...lol

SISTER has just rung from sons.....she is so excited still. They got home about 12.30, she was awake by 7.30!

She can't get over the size of the crowd and the performance was out of this world:o))
Pet Shop Boys were there and great too:o)

The camera's did a wide sweep of the audience and everyone could see themselves on the big screens round the stadium......one lady was so excited she was flinging her arms about so much and high that her sundress fell down!!!!! she was so embarrassed....lol

She's home tomorrow:)

I do think its wonderful for Jude's sisters at 72 to being going to a concert and obviously the atmosphere is going to be great, I am sure It will be an experience she will never forget.

But I honestly had to look them up.. I know of Robbie Williams but did not know that he is part of this group. And I ever never liked his stuff so I guess it all went over my head.

Been to a few concerts in the last 2 years I went to see George Micheal Austraian pink flloyd, Brian ferry, simply red and seal . I would really like to see Orelha negra this year...

That's brilliant Jude.I bet she had a blast .I would have loved to have seen them.My daughter saw them up in Manchester the other week and rang me several times while they were on stage and held the phone up for me to hear.It was quite exciting.I was singing and screeching down the phone and poor dog thought I had lost the plot (again)The only thing that puts me off going to such a huge event is the crowds and heat.

Good for her Jude, I hope she had a wonderful time, it will be something for her to look back on very often and hopefully it will cheer her everytime.

Would love to go to a concert but nothing near us I think.

I`m not there till Wednesday Jude...


Counting down the days ..think the whole of the UK must be going ...know of someone different going on virtually every night they are at Wembley.


Hope your sister has a wonderful night....Take That are amazing entertainers........ last time I ached all over the next day where i was in the Mosh pit at the front of the stage jumping and dancing around for 4 hours..the blisters on my feet were huge...but it was all worth it...


Happy days....

My sister aged 72yrs has just rung me......she is at Wembley for the TAKE THAT concert, she says its absolutely fantastic, she's never seen anything like it. They queued for over 2 hrs, queues going round and round the building. Got a good seat and now have about 2 hrs to wait. They arrived there in a Limo drinking champagne with her son and friends. She sounded so excited.
This is so good for her as she's been completely lost and quite poorly since her husband died last yr!!

Yehhhh go girl and enjoy:o))

Love yeh
