Last Saturday..the day I'd been awaiting for over 2 months, finally arrived and like always some drama ensued. I decided to catch the morning train up to Perth so had to get up at 5:00 am and be at the station for a 6:00 departure...arrived with 15 minutes to spare, I went to the kiosk to buy my ticket only to have my card decline!! Eeep, my heart skipped a few beats when I heard the words "sorry your card has declined". So my brother tried to pay and his card declined!! :O Ok so obviously I wasn't meant to be on that train...so I caught the afternoon train instead...nothing was going to stop me going to this gig, not when I'd been looking forward to it for months, it was the Joe Kings single launch and this gig was the last opportunity I had to see them play before the head over East for a national tour, I HAD to go. hehe
Anyways I made it up to Perth :-D Aunty B and I had fun getting ready for the big night, we played the Joe Kings EP while doing our makeup to get us in the mood hehe. On the way down to Fremantle we picked up my aunt's friend, he is the funniest bloke! Had us laughing all night :-D
The Joe Kings...what can I say? They were amazing!..they are amazing every time I see them actually. They pulled a decent crowd, around 300 or more people were there. The atomosphere was great! No fights, no dramas, 'twas a very positive experience, everyone was happy, and excited. Aunty B, her friend and myself all enjoy photography so we had such a grand time comparing shots and experimenting with different angles. Unfortunatley we were only allowed to take "no flash" photos so it was hard to get good photos...but oh well, we had a blast anyway. :)
