He’s still got it!

 It was all about the music, but I have to admit I felt a bit swoony…all a-flutter for this guy, I gotta tell ya!

No special effects, no big screens, no costume changes, just the man and his music, as it should be. The first half was like being in a Wine Bar (which would have been nice), just me and 12,000 of my closest friends. Backed by an amazing band, he rocked the second half.He played the music he enjoyed, and his audience was mesmerised.  What a Legend.

PS Sorry I ditched you Rohan, but he was so worth it!!!!!

    We went on Sunday night- rain, wind and cold- and you’ve summed it up just right. However, a highlight for us was “Chainsaw” the roadie belting out “Highway to Hell”! That was the second time I have seen Mr Joel and although the energy was a bit lower than 15 years ago, the voice was still amazing.

    Better come with me next time Tania!
    Yep Chainsaw was a highlight here too Louise. I think I may have had more energy at his last concert too – guess none of us are getting any younger!! Even more so since we were inside and that made me so happy (clearly, I am not one for the elements . You know, coyotes and stuff Tania!)
