AC/DC with The Answer
11/15/08
Verizon center in DC
Brian and I did great until after the concert. We
should've just waited in the van in the parking garage for it to clear out. The
street we wanted was a three way stop, Brian got nervous or didn't know who
went first so we missed out street. And you know how big cities are, you miss
one turn and it's very hard. We did get our room eventually. We stayed in
Arlington. It reminded me of my aunt Claudia.
We ate at RFD same place the pearl jam preshow was at. H
and 7th street.......must remember that. lol. They started playing AC/DC songs
the later it got. Very fun! They had a table reserved for disabled guest, or we
would have never eaten there. Long wait. I tried a beer off their long list of
beers. It was yummy!
Our seats were better than Pearl Jam in 2006. During
Pearl Jam we were at 141. AC/DC was at 121. I bought a tie-dye Black Ice shirt.
I’m a sucker for tie-dye. We were chatting with and older couple in the shirt
line. Their names were Christie and Steve. Our best friends are named that
too! AC/DC had so many stage props, it
was great! Real fun to watch. Angus acted like he was going to moon us but he
had AC/DC boxers on. Brian wanted them to play The Jack, and I didn't think
they would, but they did. Angus knows how to play up the audience. Ha! He ran
everywhere. Amazing he could do that. On the other hand, Brian looked like he
was gonna pass out after the second song. Ha! Sweating bullets. People were
wearing plastic red light up devil horns that looked cool when the lights were
out. Silly me forgot to change battery in my camera but I saved some pics I
found on the net.
It was the loudest show I’ve been to. They warned me on
the Pearl Jam chat board. Glad I brought my earplugs. Seeing AC/DC live was one
of the thing’s I wanted to do before I died. We did it! And it was not a let
down at all.
