Default Nickleback concert tontie

They're playing in the next town over (120 miles) and Pmom got us floor seats in the booze section. Last time we saw them was when they opened for Kiss for the millienium concert back in 2000.
Road trip should be fun

Sounds like a good time. Be safe! My son saw them a few years back and really enjoyed the show. When I saw Kiss they weren't with them but Ted Nugent and Skidrow was. That, too, was an AWESOME show! I was so close to Ted I could count the hairs on his chin. Gene Simmons handed a little girl (who was on her dad'* shoulders) a guitar pick and they were one person away from me. I could've reached him but we all just let him give the little girl her prize.

If Nickleback are in your area get some tickets and go, what a great show.
Danko Jones opened followed by Live (dolphins cry song), we missed Danko cause we were still at the pub living large.
The floor was general addmission but you had to be 19 to get a wrist band to enter the beer garden (had one it was flat and warm.....pass).
Pmom and I made it to the front of the pack and were less the 5 feet from the stage. There were a few mini moshes and a bit of push and shove but I held my ground and protected mom as best as I could.

Glad to hear all that "training" in the '80'* paid off, fellow mosher

Sounds like a great show and a good time.

Can't wait to see you and PMom, again.

OMG!!!!! The concert was FANTASTIC!!!!!! I would have posted sooner, we got home at 2:00AM and I had to work this morning...... Anyway, Dad did a great job of protecting me last night, nobody got close to me.

Nickelback were so great, they sound just as good live as they do on their CD. Well worth the trip!!!!
