After a long day in workshops, I was ready to curl up on the sofa in front of the fire. But we had tickets to see Tami Nielson and boy, did she wake me up! What a stunning voice and a brilliant show. Also discovered another cool little venue tucked away in The Tron. Shh! Not telling.

Enjoyed an amazing spectacle at Clarence Street Theatre this evening. Tiki Taane’s music and contemporary dance told am emotional and raw story. No photos allowed during the show but he was happy to be snapped while autographing CDs.

The Boss. Say no more! Just brilliant. 32 years since I last saw him in Roundhay Park in Leeds and he still puts on an amazing show.

Amazing evening at Vecta Arena experiencing the majestic performance of Nick Cave. Simple but extremely impressive backdrop and lights.

Dad’s Day Out – a secret location has been on the calendar for a while. There has been a fair degree of speculation as to what it was but today all was revealed! And it didn’t disappoint! Aonghas, in his own words, was so overwhelmed that he “got quite emotional and even cried” when he heard his favourite song being played. The Coldplay concert at Mount Smart stadium was incredible. A real multi-sensory experience with a great atmosphere. I got a few good photos but this one has to be the pick since it has now gathered over a thousand likes and several hundred retweets!

Plumbing update: we still have a leak!
Aonghas is enjoying his early birthday present and we are enjoying the tunes. Caught this moment as Nigel tried to help him with finger picking… Love seeing my boys together.
Here’s a cool photo of Aonghas engrossed too…

Impressed that Gus is sticking with learning to play the guitar. He sounds quite tuneful…! Self-taught through watching YouTube tutorials and using the ancient books I had as a teenager.
