Black and white by alia_801

Black and white

This is why last night's pic was pretty average! We went to see Bryan Adams play live. He's been my favourite singer for years, and is one of those entertainers who can really sing and play, and always has a sense of showmanship. The current show is acoustic, with just Bryan (guitar/harmonica/vocals) and a pianist. The acoustics at the Palais theatre in Melbourne were stunning - I've never realised how good acoustic performances could sound! Given how sick I've been lately it was touch-and-go that we'd make it to the concert, but I'm so glad we did.

(This pic is my programme, and you can see me reflected in the shiny surface too).

I'm also feeling a heap better today! Still coughing, but I actually have an appetite and some energy back finally...
I didn't know he was in Australia. Why do so many tours skip Brisbane? We are part of Australia too. Good to hear you are feeling better.

"I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played 'til my fingers bled
It was summer of '69"

One of all time fave songs..........did he sing that?

@juanita He did sing it - and so did the thousands of people there - it was magic; all the hairs were standing up on my neck, just amazing!

@bdb3471 I think the Perth people felt the same way. They were promised a visit but ended up having to trek to Melb/Sydney.

And cuts like a knife ..... Bryan Adams has such a soulful voice and must have been amazing in an acoustical solo performance. Nice pic and glad you're on the mend.

@michaelelliott Yep, he did that one too, and the audience all sang along, especially with the na na nas :)

Glad you got to see your favorite and glad it was such an awesome experience! Also glad you're finally feeling better. Nice shot! I was looking at the artwork and how well it looked in black and white, and then something jumped out at me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it 2011?
