Ok, so along with the cricket and drinking full strength beer (although the beer i did drink at the cricket was light but shh, don't tell anyone!) i went to see Ian Brown at the Metro with Chris, Damo, Nath, Sarah and Robbie...and what looked like a room full of british backpackers...hehe, no, that's not true really...hehe..So Ian Brown was the lead singer of The Stone Roses before going solo...the man is 42 but oozes cool...the hair, the glasses, the jacket...i know there was definitely more than one man in that room last night wishing they were him...or just wishing they had his hair...the concert was fantastic not just because of ian's coolness, but because of the crowd...they were definitely huge fans and enjoyed every moment of the concert...they sang, laughed, cheered, chanted, danced...ah a grand night was had by all...

So as i was saying earlier it was a day of firsts...ian brown was a first, i'd never seen him live before, i'd barely heard much of his music before really...but the best/funniest first was probably being kicked out of the kings cross hotel...you're probably saying to yourself...OMG! what could bean have done to have managed that! well, it was raining and cold and there was a line to get in, i was busting to go to the ladies...i went through the back telling the bouncer i was going to have an accident if i didn't go, and he let me go on the condition i come straight out...well, i found a back entrance into the place...anyways, the bouncer came to escort me out of the place saying i never came back from the toilet and now it's time to go...this was about 3 hours after i got in...hehehe...stupid bouncers...
