Well I did it! I bought (rather late in the game) A ticket for the Mac in Concert in Ottawa Canada (where I live of course

) at the Scotiabank Place. This is where the Ottawa Senators NHL team plays. On Monday the 23rd at 8 pm to 11 pm. The ticket arrived today. This will be my second concert I have ever been to. The first being Stevie's tour for Behind The Mirror when she was here at the Landsdown Park.
The only problen is that I don't have a car and have to take a bus there. It's on the other side of the city from me but OC Transpo runs special service express busses to the show and back so that all right! Only painful thing was the price Total of $182.55, BUT I got Floor seats section A Row 4 seat 9 thats just stage right! YAY!!!!! Just gata remember to take my distance glasses and not my computer glasses or I won't see a thing but fuzz!!! Now I gata be calm and wait till Monday. Calm Yes

Went to the concert last night. It started at 8 PM and ended at 10:30.
What a fantastic seat! I was so close I can see Lindsay sweat! LOL! I was right in front of him all night and Stevie was over to the left but still close enough!! LOL You can't truly appreciate how tiny she is unless you see here live!

Lindsay was a wild man all night. Bouncing all over the stage and never missing a beat. He was grate fun to watch. Stevie was so serene and calm in comparison. It was clear she was in her element. Utterly amazing how good she looks and sounds! Mick was Mick. Does anyone understand what he talking about? And good old John, A solid rock as always.

Security was realy laid back. Cameras were flashing all night. I find it so funny people trying to get a pic with there phones.

All the people with me on the floor were great. I don't think there were more than a hand full under 30 years. We were up all concert dancing and singing along although I have to use a cane to stand I didn't want to stop moving! Two and a half hours and it zoomed by.

Being that close to the stage is a two edged sword. It was fantastic being that close but Oh My God it was LOUD!!!!!! Mics drums were boosted and it was blasting right through me..BOOOM BOOM BOOOMM! YEAKS!!

I was amazed I didn't have a migrane after but my ears poped as I was riding home on the bus LOL.

A shout out to OC Transpo. They have special dedicated busses to get you to and from the place. But as I and only a couple of people were on the last bus to Blair Station (on the other side of the city) they told the driver forget about the route and go straight there. So up the Queen's Way right to the ststion and it took less than half an hour, Nice.

So I gata say it was a Fab show and a fab night and if you get the chance GO!!! SEE!! SING!! DANCE!!!!!
