"We got the afternoon.."
Finally after a long time I can post on my blog.
So..what's been happening to me after all this time?
1. I bought a vinyl record. I don't have a player, but I'm happy with it just being around.
2. I went to the Slash concert on Aug. 5.
Slash was awesome, and him opening for AC/DC must have been epic. Before the concert started they were playing AC/DC too.
I was in the mosh pit where the crowd was so crazy I couldn't even get a good shot (I did get a vague blurry shot of him playing vertical guitar,though). Myles Kennedy has an amazing voice.
3. Band tees.
I have, for AC/DC, Heat Seeker , Highway To Hell, and one of topless Angus. I use the last as a pajama of sorts, lol. I also bought a The Who (it's orange, that's kinda rare when most band tees are black), Beatles (A Hard Day's Night), and Guns n' Roses. And they're all bought from the same guy on the third floor of Amcorp Mall, save for the topless one. That one's from ground floor, Victoria Music Centre. And yes I HAVE gotten compliments. HAH, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I GET RANDOM GUYS COMPLIMENTING ME ON MY DRESSING. (That has NEVER happened with any other type of clothing, and NO it's not because, well. They don't care about the Rosie part (I meant 39. The 42 helps. Really. And I'm not 56.
Never will be.). And they're all Malay or American (Australian? I dunno, can't tell). Chinese...well I've never gotten any compliments from them. I guess it's because most of them listen to Chinese music. I've gotten like, 5 compliments on the Heat Seeker shirt. 2 on Highway To Hell. 1 on The Who.
The things they say to me....
"Y'know, I saw AC/DC live. Angus is the most hyper 55-year old I have ever seen and that's not an exaggeration." (Couple of teenage Americans.)
At a hotel buffet.. (was with my friend)
Well actually, I was HOPING that the guy (he was like, in his early 40's,also caucasian)would turn around and say something, so I stood near him. My friend was standing next to me.
*looks at me* 'Oh sorry, am I holding you girls back?'
Me: 'Oh,no.'
'Okay.' *turns back, then looks at me again* 'AC/DC?'
Me, thinking: It worked!! 'Yeah..'
'Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!'
Then he walked away, and I actually RAN over to my mum to tell her (now that I think about it, I don't think she actually cared).
Then that guy calls me over and says to me,
'I saw AC/DC YEARS ago. They were a bunch of sweaty, dirty, little guys, playing the loudest, best rock n' roll, and they were amazing. Now I know you won't be able to see them live anytime soon, but I just want you to know, AC/DC is amazing, and you should never, ever be ashamed of being a fan.'
And when he was about to leave, he CAME OVER TO OUR TABLE.. and he said,
'Don't give up on AC/DC!!'
When I bought the Heat Seeker shirt : (Malay guy)
'Wow, gadis Cina pun dengar lagu rock!'
[Translation: Wow, even a Chinese girl listens to rock music!]
......well, that pretty much sums it all up.
