My second ever concert

So I will do another update later about what I have been up too since my last post :).

But I would now like to talk about the pretty awesome concert that I attended on Anzac Day, 25th April :) .

So I attended Ricky Martin's One World Tour Concert which he first began in New Zealand with four concerts there.
In Townsville he started he Australia leg of the tour which was great, earlier in the month there was a venue change, likely though ticketet sent out another ticket since I had already booked one earlier in the year,

So instead of the stadium where is was supposed to be originally it was then moved to the Townsville Convention and Entertainment centre and was changed to two nights instead of one so it was on 24th and 25th of April.  And to top it all off there was the fact that Ricky was bringing a special guest with him on his Australian leg, that being of Delta Goodrem,  who I also enjoy listening too, I have actually never ever seen her live before so that became another reason as to why I couldn't wait for the concert to start,

So once it hit the first of April of course I was starting a countdown :), and getting closer and closer to the date, I was listening to almost every song of Ricky Martin.


25th ..... At 7pm I arrived at the centre I was so full of excitement that it felt like  I had butterflies in my stomach,
once I went to the area that I had to be in to be able to find my seat, my seat was the second row from the top, so I was quite high up, but I found the seat to just be perfect I had a good view of the stage and could see it all clearly so  I was happy, I think personally I just didn't care where I sat, I just wanted to be there. :)

and then at 7.30pm Delta Goodrem came on, and she was just soooooooooooooooooooo amazing, even more amazing live then when you listen to her music on CD or the radio, she gave a great half n hour performance to get the crowd pumping and all hyped up, she sang many of her great songs as well as her new single 'Only Human" .

then at 8.30pm after a bit of a break Ricky finally came on and the whole 2 hours or maybe longer was just awesome and epic as, it was  so full of energy, the stage effects for each of the different songs, the dancers and band were brilliant, he sang a mixture of old classic songs as well as some of his many new ones as well, he also did a few duets with Delta, as well as Jackson Thomas who was about of Team Ricky on The Voice Australia, they were also pretty amazing.

I loved every single moment of the concert from start to finish, if I could I would go see him in concert again :).

1 year ago

So it is pretty crazy to think that just a year ago I was exploring the amazing city of  Berlin, and enjoying my third day there and soaking up as much of the history of the city as I good and slowly getting used to the different country, city and culture that I had planed to be apart of for a year, it is a little scary to think that I would actually be back in New Zealand by now, with the experience of living a year in a foreign country and also getting the chance to explore Europe.

I am still happy with the fact that I had a chance to even be there for three months :) I have had some wonderful memories from Berlin, and I will look forward to being able to return one day soon
