My sister managed to
get her hands on four tickets to see AC/DC at the EnormoDome. I was
really jealous because they'd sold out in minutes and being almost
sixteen, I didn't have the money to book one... and even if I did,
Mum reckoned I was a little too young for such a big concert venue.
On
my sixteenth birthday my sister gave me a card along with an
apathetic apology for not getting me a gift to go with it. I was a
little disappointed. She normally buys me a CD or something but this
time she gave the impression that my sixteenth birthday wasn't
important... certainly not important enough to warrant spending more
than a pound or two on a birthday card. Of course I feigned gratitude
as I peeled the envelope open... but felt utterly disappointed having
only received a card from her. I opened the card to read her message and
couldn’t believe my eyes... for there, inside the card is one AC/DC
ticket for the EnormoDome in six weeks time.
I was over the moon that
I'd be going along with my sister and her friends and could barely
contain my excitement... in fact I couldn't!
“Now there are
conditions Matty.” my sister told me.
“Yeah I know... no
drinking, keep away from the mosh pit.” I said.
“Definitely no
drinking!” she said, winking at me.
Mum surprised me and
said I could drink if I wanted, providing I was sensible. “But
please don't wander off... I know how hard it is to find people in a
place like that... you pop to the loo and spend about an hour trying
to find your place in the crowd again.”
