P!NK … Awesome stuff
My sister and I went to Pink at Challenge Stadium last night. My sister was running a little late, finished work later than normal. That was OK, I had managed to have a pretty relaxing afternoon with mum and was prepared and looking hot! We will start this post with a summary of my afternoon.
Mum and I had been looking for some Mattress Pads, IKEA don’t sell doubles. Only single and queensize. I only have a double bed. I need a mattress pad on the bed I am sleeping on due to the uncomfy nature of lying on a sofabed, where I can feel the metal railings when I roll over. On the otherhand, at the moment, I am just too tired to care most of the time, but I would like to have a bit more of a comfy sleep. So.. Clark Rubber here we come.
Getting back to P!NK… We rocked up at around 7.45pm and parked on the roadside, the car parks looked chockers and there were people still arriving even though the doors were open. We slipped into a queue to get in and made our way to the stadium, and they were really strict on who entered with bags, and bottles, and even had my bag searched (they found a mobile phone switched off).
The first act was The Androids, They were as bad as other people who had been to pink previous had said. They were so boring, they played some songs about some shit, not sure. My sister and I went and found some water, and sat in a door way whilst they played, and we stared at the people walking in and out, and they stared at us. The worst thing, is despite the fact I am overly round, I saw more rotund women than skinny. I am a reformed fatty, but I saw women that just shouldn’t have been wearing short skirts with their plump white doughy legs.
I chose to disguise my generous figure with jeans, a nice purple shirt showing off my awesome cleavage helped with a very well designed bra. I don’t need anything like a U bra, but this was an impressive cleavage bra. Enhance the positives! Anyways, my sister was dressed up nicely too, nothing too revealing, and both of us were not impressed with some of the clothing we saw. I beleive that if you are a big chick, you don’t wear skin tight clothing, if you are a thin chick with bones and ribs sticking out of your body, don’t wear things which make you look like you just came out of a concentration camp.
The concert itself was awesome. She had this voice so powerful that as she belted out some of her hits, like “who knew” you just got goosebumps. Other songs, she didn’t sing herself, but she danced and performed as a support act for it. Then she sat down on a stool in a simple white dress, with 3 others and sang some of her ballads. The song that is my favourite, family portrait was up, and she wore a grey smock and she sang it. Gave me goosebumps.
Girls were carried out periodically due to nearly fainting in the crush of the main floor. The heat rolled off the bodies towards us as we stood off to the side, so if needed we could get away quickly. We were close enough to be able to watch pink, without needing to stare at the vid screens on either side of the stage. A very good night in all.
Got to speak to MM again last night on MSN, not for long but enough time for me to feel he is ok, and to let him know that I miss him.

my sisters are both going tonight, so it seems they will have fun… one wanted to start lining up at 10am, but from what you say they wont have much trouble getting into front row..

i dont think they will have too many problems, we were in the pit, and providing you could shove your way to the front, you could get a spot.

DH and I went to Pink in Sydney a few weeks ago and it was fantastic!! I really would have loved to go again.
We were right on the fence of the side of the runway and spent the whole night with goosebumps.
We also experienced some interesting fashion *blink* a few people dressed in only under ware etc

Hi, you dont know me but I often catch up on your blog over lunch - we also went to the pink concert and we loved it but had to laugh over the comments made about big girls and their choice of clothing.
The worst offender has to be Pink’s base guitarist - she was a shocker…….
Keep up the good blogging

Hi Kilee - i did notice the guitarist chick, but was not as bad as women of generous proportions wearing halter neck tops, and spray on tight jeans. thanks for the encouraging words
Tom.. Pink was very interactive, it was a great experience and worth going.

Sounds great. Concerts are so expensive but if you really enjoyed the performance it is certainly worthwhile.
