I’m visiting Auckland for the Pearl Jam concert. It was the best concert I’ve been too. PJ played for two and a half hours, on top of stunning performances with Liam Finn, Ben Harper and Neil Finn. I got a bit stomped in the mosh pit. Man I hate those big smelly dudes that push their way to the front. Even so I had a blast. Eddie Vedder sung ‘Not Given Lightly’ with Liam and Neil Finn (for dear Chris Knox). And the outrageously good-looking Ben Harper did a Queen number with Ed (‘Under Pressure’). All too much for my little hed to take in…
I have also visited the Japanese $3 on Queen St. So many cool things. I’ll tell you all about the goodies I got later. And I visited The Department Store in Takapuna – it’s not as big as I expected but a tad more pretentious. It did have a great range of cosmetics though.
Auckland is awesome though. The weather is stunning and we’re off to Roller Derby tonight. But now I’m off to the Grey Lynn festival. See ya!
