Nightwish Concert!

Mon Mar 16, 2009, 12:57 PM
Finally something with a meaning to spam about to the world!
Even though that defies the definition of spam.. p = pointless.. and this spam has a meaning.. I think.

Aaanyway~

Last sunday, me and my sis went to a Nightwish concert in Ahoy in Rotterdam (that's in the Netherlands for you folks).
We took the bus to the concert hall, only to find a waiting queue of like.. 300 meters long! (approx 2-3 hours or so). Crazy long line.. all at one entrance names "arena". There were three other entrances, two of which went to the upper rings of the hall, and one other was simply called "Entree".
So we checked our tickets at which entrance we outta wait at.. "Arena" it said. (yes the very long line one)
But we just walked straight at the "Entree" entrance, which had a queue line of uhm.. 20 seconds whaha.

Once inside, we skipped the 2 hour queue and headed for the cloakroom to leave our coats there. After that, we checked the goodies out and saw a nice towel. We did decide to leave it there, because we'd have to hoist the towel with us the entire concert.
"We'll buy em afterwards." we said.
So in we went for the best concert of the year. We walked around the edge towards the front, so after 2 minutes, we stood at the second front row, woot!
Two support acts by Indica and Pain passed by before the main group, and the ones we all came for, Nightwish! *yaay*

*skipping this part, cos you just HAD to be there to even know how undescribable this was*

So after playing two more songs because we all yelled "we want more", the lights went on again and it was time to head out and get our coats and goodies.
My sis went to get the coats while I would try to get two towels.
It was very very *bleeped* crowded!! People were clogging up the passage and more were trying to buy out the goodies stalls. I only managed to get one towel, but it was better than the person behind me, who wanted the same item. I got the last one, whaha!
On the way out, we bought two Ice Teas to lesten the thirst.

After a short while, we went back to the busstop to see where and at what time the bus to the train station would leave.
The last one would leave in 15 minutes, so afterwards we stood at the station, but there was no more train that would go directly towards home! The two options by train were to go via via via a 2 hour detour, or get as close as possible by train and get a cab.
We chose for the latter option, because by then, the time was 0:45 in the morning!
At 1:30 or so, we took a cab straight to home. Boy, that was an expensive trip, even for two people! 0ver 100 euros for 50 kilometers >.<
So in the end, at nearly 2 am, we were home.. like zombies.
The worst part was, that we both had an alarm going off at 7 in the morning for school and the doctor.. neither going off of course, we were sleeping haha!
Well.. worst part... not exactly true.. the cab-price was the worst.
I missed a day of school, which wasn't all that bad anyway, because the classes that I had weren't too hard that I couldn't skip one, and the doctor.. well.. I dunno how my sis had arranged that.

We got our concert, which was better than last year's, we met up with friends, old and new, I got my towel and we both got awesome photos (which you're not gonna see here) aaaand.. tomorrow's another boring day.

Over 'n out!
