2007-08-13 Silverchair in Nottingham



Cute couple - John & Charley



We made it to Nottingham
I liked the waterfalls behind him



Strange how the sun was only catching the building





John has a thing for limes







Look at that Lliam look-a-like in the happy hippy van!





Ooof!
We assumed this was hit by one of the cool looking trams




The old lime obsession continues







We were only just in time for entering Rock City but still managed to get into a good spot for Forever Like Red






















They weren't too bad at all







Big ears returns to sound test the stylish modern art drum kit





Silverchair appear from within the smoke






Very loud crowd














Proof pic
We were there lol




















Inflatable banana!






Aussie flag and awesome air con/smoke machine









Rock City is a great venue

















I thought he sounded a bit camp but now I know that Daniel Johns is actually married to Natalie Imbruglia!

Another thing I didn't know before the gig is that he was part of the Dissociatives who are another band I really like
: D




These are photos of the underside of Johns mini after we pulled over to check that the big brick-like rock we hit hadnt damaged the car. Thank god! We were still over 2 hours drive away from home at around midnight.







I had a nice welcome home from a pretty huge spider : )





Random pic of me with a present off my sister. Stealth balloon! :D

quick hello n goodbye
a quick 2 hours to nottingham right near donington and alton towers
a bit of metallica and audioslave on the way

nice angus burgers
while we were in burger king we could see a drug deal taking place through one window and an armoured police van through the other lmao
well timed arriving at rock city for the gig
got a few flyers, handed in my jacket n got nearish the front for forever like red
they were better than i expected. singer sometimes like muse. a couple of love songs but the rest were alright
a bit of a wait for silverchair but it was well worth it
great atmosphere
crowd were well into the gig
awesome air con/smoke
good sound
good view, photos, video etc
inflatable banana!
nearly bought a t shirt but didnt
ive got enough t shirts really and silverchair arent my favourite band
they put on a good gig though
varying from pop rock, through a bit of grunge and some fairly heavy prog metal ish
pretty expressive camp aussie lead singer was unexpected but put on a good show
lights were good too
good venue
walked back to the car passed another armoured police van on a MONDAY night!
almost lost our car park ticket but thanks to cambridge girls bike pump we managed to retrieve it lol
hit a brick on the motorway and nearly broke the mini! we were lucky though thanks to johns quick reflexes i think we just escaped a puncture!
another quick 2 hour drive and we're back home in one piece lol
good night
