If I was 20 years younger, I'd have had the hots for him too!

This is a post to quickly let you all know that despite the negatives I know this is and always will be the right place for me. I think down to the fact that crowds aren't so big here I have so far managed to see many many of my favourite bands and get right down the front...AND I have met Henry Rollins in person, been handed Eddie Vedders tambourine by the man himself and had a wink and a wave from Billy Corgan.

Finally, I just won a competition to meet my lifelong idol Shirley Manson when Garbage come to Auckland. I am pretty sure this would have never happened at home without massive effort from many many people. I'm meant to be here depsite it being far far away.

It's what you make it, dive in, love life and try and enjoy it despite the lack of walkers crisps!!!

Have a wonderful 2013 everyone, it's going to be a good year xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Cam you be bottled and brought out as needed (ie often) on here?

Haha! I'll try my best, I read regularly and try to chime in from time to time to spread some cheer!

I can only say, don't let it rattle you, not one single bit... And when you don't let it rattle your bones, you get to meet rockstars!

He's about 13 years younger than Jared Leto and without the big ego plus don't think Jared is looking so good these days way to thin!

Nice to see something positive here for a change!

I hope to be loving it out there again soon! At the time, very much suffering from a case of not knowing what I had till I lost it!
