What can I say!?
A brilliant night from start to finish! We had great seats and the crowd around us were totally up for it. The support band, The Answer, did an excellent set, and were received enthusiastically by the audience, but the atmosphere continued to build as everyone anticipated the main act, and I can't believe that anyone could possibly have been disappointed by what was delivered. The shamefully misquote a famous Dublin rocker, the lat,e great Phil Lynott...the boys were well and truly back in town! And not before time, I might add.
Time and tide has done absolutely nothing to diminish the ability of these 5 guys to deliver their very best! My ears are still ringing the morning after, and my voice is hoarse from cheering and singing, and that's just the way it should be!
Our eternal thanks to those connections who sorted out the ultimate birthday present for my husband - guest list tickets to AC/DC !!!
Roll on Punchestown in June, when hopefully we get to do it all over again!
With regards to an OB:Thyroid observation....really, really, really found it a struggle to walk from the hotel to the venue (less than half a mile) and felt more than a little humiliated that I had to keep stopping every hundred yards or so to let the pain in my back and legs subside. I know this a symptom of being hypo, but man that was hell...and, you just feel *everyone* is looking at the fat cow who can't walk because she's so fat...if only they knew! Times like this I wish I could wear a sign around my neck, explaining its my thyroid, not my weight, that is the problem...but I didn't let it spoil what was one of the most incredible gigs I've ever been to! :-)
