Monday was a stressful day…
It was 11.50am and I was just about to go and do a practical exercise for media 1…But alas, the pre-sale tickets were just about to go on sale!
I followed my group outside; camera bag in one hand and my iPhone with the Ticketek mobile page up in the other… 11:51, 11:52, 11:53, 11:54…getting shaky now…11:55, 11:56, 11:57…nerves really kick in…11:58, 11:59…REFRESH… no tickets.
Damn.
I patiently waited 10 minutes- the length of the expiry time on the Ticketek online shopping carts. I then tried again…BANG- all of a sudden, I AM GOING TO FLEETWOOD MAC!
I was bought up on Gold 104.3. My parents took my brother and I to see B52s at ‘A Day on the Green’ and then to Spandau Ballet in 2010. Whilst it took me a few years to realise how awesome the music from my parents generation actually is, I appreciate it now and that is all that matters!
This weeks ‘Song of the Week’ is a Gold 104.3 classic and makes a notable appearance on my “Most Favourite Songs Ever” playlist (which is like the Triple J Hottest 100, but a hell of a lot better).
It combines strange noises, animals and marching bands with catchy and meaningful lyrics- so it is pretty much like the musical version of a happy meal and is the one song that I am looking the most forward to hearing live
But there is something about this song that just keeps me coming back for more- this song must be listened to for a minimum of 3 times in a row.
Don’t believe me? Try it for yourself.
This weeks ‘Song of the Week’ is ‘Tusk’ by Fleetwood Mac… ENJOY!!! (3+ times in a row)
Also stay tuned for my Saturday Spotlight on Fleetwood Mac in the coming months!
