You know where you are..
You’re in the jungle, baby…
Perhaps you are familiar with that lyrics from a famous hit song. If you are, then you know who the band is. Yes, G n' R or Guns and Roses.
When I was way younger, perhaps in junior and senior high schools, I grew up listening to their hits. I did have many of their albums, still in the forms of cassettes, which need cassettes players in order to listen the songs. I guess many of the millennials have no clues what the cassette is or how the cassette player looks like.
But anyway, this is one of my favorite rock bands of all time (besides Aerosmith and Bon Jovi and more, actually). Although we had watched their concerts while in Geneva back in 2010 if I’m not mistaken, we jumped at the first opportunity to get the tickets for G n’ Roses concert in Wellington.
Originally we bought only 2 tickets for me and my hubby, but then at the last minute, my friends who were supposed to join us couldn’t make so we bought their tickets and went all together with our teens.
We made sure they listened to some of those hits begire coming to the concert LOL. The band is obviously not on their radar but some of the legendary hits are easily found in many movies, games or Spotify.
Long story short, we really enjoyed the concert. It was my girl’s 12th birthday as well so we had mini celebration with sushi, fries and cold drinks, plus sing-a-long till almost midnight.
Here are some photos we took during the concert and you can see we did have a blast in there.
Join us on (almost) Wordless Wednesday and have fun with the link party
