| Part 4 |
| OK, from the World Trade centre to the tall green chick, it is awesome, we didn't get to go up her which is good cause I was wearing shorts and a t shirt. I was hanging out with these 2 Americans Robert and Sherry. Now Robert had a nice little mullet, we got a picture together so I hope it comes out! Ha ha. Bought some tacky souvenirs! Yay! Then we went to Ellis "oh god I'm boring" Island. Now I'm sure it's not but I have no idea about American history, so it was just a big old building with posters, graphs and signs. But something you don't see everyday. From there, via Wall st, Door St and Window Ave and back to the bus terminal. Got the good ol' 129 at gate 408 at 7:00, I'm old hack now. The shuttle picked me up and got back to the hotel. It was too late to go out to the Stone Pony, bit spewin but A) I'm so tired and 2) It was gonna be a bitch to get out there. I'm now watching Smackdown! and I think Tuff Enough is on at 10:00!! Yay!! Oh man, Saturn should wrestle every night. You're Welcome!! I'm gonna sleep so well tonight! OK, I just went to the gift store to get some snacks, being a dumb Aussie I bought stuff I've heard of but never had. One of these was a Slim "oh my god I can not believe I put that in my mouth" Jim. Holy Shit, I've now officially banned Slim Jims from everything. Good morning, yes, morning and it's 4:33am to be exact. Why am I awake? Cause Rhys decided to wake me up. P.S. Thanx for the call. Tonight is the 1st Jovi gig so I'm gonna go back to sleep. I've had and still got K-Rock on all night. I'm in my element, which reminds me, elements heat up when plugged in. I'm gonna go back to sleep. Sam and Lisa should be here in about 5 hrs and then I'm off to meet some Jovi dudes. 14 hrs to the Jovi gig, Yay!!!! The question isn't which T shirt to buy, it's how many to buy?! Well, it's now 2:18am, I've just gotten back from the 1st Giants show, but more on that later. So after Sam and Lisa arrived I went out to meet the Jovi fans at their Fan Club hotel. What a kick ass bunch of people!! Man there are some hardcore fans on that trip and you all say I'm bad! Not compared to some of the people I saw today. So from there came back to the hotel and got ready to enter the hallowed ground. Now here's my scam story. I had my ticket which was a great ticket! But Sam and Lisa got All Access Passes for Eve 6 and with that came tickets. So Sam comes up to my seat and says "We can use our passes, so you can have the ticket if you want" Holy Shit! So I end up 25 rows from the front, Dead Centre. Oh my Richie!! I couldn't be happier if I was twins! No, triplets, no, quads, oh fuck it, even Barry wasn't this happy and that dude was way happier than Larry! Eve 6 were great! Sugar Ray were better, they fuckin rocked, what a show. Then, then, then Joves. The Stage was the best, a big Empire State building with the Slippery SS logo just fuckin outstanding. They came on at 9ish and played until 11:45, they loved it, we loved it, Donald Trump loved it, yeah he was there. I asked him for money, he said "Who are you and I'm not Donalad Trump." so I asked the real Donald and he said "Quack". Anyway. The Joves played all the hits and more, more being my fave, stuff like Raise your hands, Wild in the Streets, the fuckin played Always! and get this, Richie got to sing STRANGER, I almost cried but I think that was because a bug flew in my eye. No seriously, a Richie tune at a Jovi show is so special. the boys were loving it, lapping it up until Richie told Jon to stop licking the stage. I lost my voice 3 times!! The merch was selling out so fast that we have to get there early 2morro to try and get the rest. There were fireworks, Flames, Dinosaurs, Monkeys and Elephants too! Well not the 1st 2 anyway. So it ended, I took about 45 photos, as you do! I hope they work out. More soon dudes, gotta run, but there is plenty more!!!! Rock on, Troy |
