Just answered the door and signed for four tickets that are going to make the Siifs very excited.

 

The One Direction concert tickets have come...oh my life...can't wait!

 

We have never been to a concert as a family before, we have been to pantomimes, local theater production...even ventured to the O2 years ago to watch Disney's High School Musical on ice...but this, this is HUGE.

 

My girls are so in love with 1D and they are being supported by their other favourite band, 5 Seconds Of Summer. I don't mind their music, easy to listen to, doesn't offend my ears. The exciting part, for me, is to see the expressions on their faces when the boys come on stage, it will be electric and so very exciting. A Sifford memory for ever and ever. Wow....just wow...it's really happening-June.

 

Plus I will feel young again no doubt, and get caught up in the excitement. I hope they play this track as going is part of the story of our, the Siffs, life.

Sharon...

 

I am desperately trying to think of a positive...I just would not be able to cope...

 

But - I do see your point on the 'look on the girls faces' I bet that will be some picture!

It will be priceless...no doubt. Knowing me I'll have a 'tear at a wedding moment' with the sheer joy of it all.

 

They are so excited, it wonderful.

 

I remember my first concert, Meatloaf (with my dad and Uncle) I felt numb with shock when his opening number 'Bat Outta Hell' came on. Could just not believe the man I listed to most nights, on my tape cassette, was stood there, belting it out in front of my very eyes.

 

It really is the little moments like that, when you look back, really do make you smile isn't it? That lovely warm glow you get in your belly.

Meatloaf...

One Direction..

 

The world is going to hell in a hand basket...this generations Meatloaf is 1D...

 

I am formally and officially a Grumpy Old Git...

Nearly woke Lee up laughing..lol...not good after he's worked a 12 hour night shift.

 

Would it tip you over the edge if I also told you I was in love with...

 

David Cassidy

Donny Osmond

 

Adam Ant...just gorgeous

 

And...and I don't always feel comfortable sharing this, people can be very judgemental you know, but Rick Astley...there I said it. Been to his concert...have all his cds, even got my girls to 'quite like ' some of his tracks.

 

Truth be told, I'm a bit like the O'Jays....I love music...any kinda music...right on ;)

Sounds like your girls will have fun ;)

Just think Action...when you and your wife get pregnant you will have all this too look forward to, too. Starts small...school concerts, a pantomime or three...then Billy big time music halls....start saving now ;) worth every penny. Oh and don't forget to put cash away for Liverpool football team merchandise ;)

Awww...sharon...that's so cool.  I remember those days

 

took my daughter to Nsync and pink when she was 14 ....she will never forget it

That must have been so exciting for her Babs, both Billy big time artists. I remember Nsync...our country copied and we had Take That. Fabulous teenage cheesy pop...still love that genre.

 

Pink...wow...one day for us four...one day.

 

I bet if you mentioned it and reminded your daughter now she would get a belly glow, and smile.

How fun!

 

 

My daughter would have LOVED to have seen one direction when they were here, but tickets were sooo expensive.  Like $350 for way up in the rafters and off to the side.  I couldn't do it.  :(

Oh Sharon bring your ear plugs. My husband took my daughter to the Jonas brothers a few years ago. He said the sound of thousands of screaming girls was a sound like he has never experienced before. lol he said he could still hear them for days after the show.

 

HAVE FUN!

HI Petra, and thanks.

 

That's expensive isn't it? We would have been in the same boat as you, at that price, and not been going...just too expensive.

 

Has your daughter had her head turned by 5 seconds of Summer yet Petra? They are currently No1 in the Uk.

 

A rocky type sound....if that's the right word. They have been doing tours over here but always clashed with school nights, and too far to drive to. Don't know if they have a buzz around them your side of the pond? She might enjoy their music is she loves 1D, they toured with them in the UK last year.

Jonas brothers...pizza girl...I rememberbthem Bonnie...out aroundvthe same time asvthe High School Musical era...awww, happy days.

 

Lee, my hubby, took our Megan to the 1D concert last year, in February. Her sister hadn't had her 'head turned' lasy year so didn't fancy it (was more into Mumford and Sons back then) Bonhie I cried laughing when they got back, his ears....ringing...said he was sure it did permanent damage...rofl...mind you, our Megan said he was singing his head off, dancing away...he loved it really, even if he wouldn't admit it.... ;)

Well....it could be worse. It could be Justin Beiber.

 

Just joking :p

 

I hope you make marvelous memories.

The first concert my parents took me to was Michael Jackson. I wasn't old enough to go with just friends so they took me, even though they didn't like his music. Lol

Most of my clothes are from that era.....

 

No - don't dress up. But once or twice I am almost certain that I tapped my foot
