It's a lot colder out here in Doncaster. I think I miss Melbourne so much more tonight because I know what mayhem wrecks the city, marking the start of the Easter break, and I bleed to be part of the havoc. The mad (like, literally) people prowling the streets don't seem so scary right now, compared to the quiet of the subs. Tonight, I do not seek solitude. :(

I hope the next 4 days make up for tonight! I guess the thought of staying in the Marriott when I'm in Sydney's sort of comforting.

Anyway, tonight was The Fray @ Festival Hall. They were awesome!! Dine and I went absolutely ballistic when the lead singer got off the stage to meet the fans in the standing area during their last song (before their encore set of 3 songs). But I have to be honest, I didn't walk into the concert hall with very high expectations. I always thought The Fray were a little too boy band-ish and too commercial even when their songs are not particularly mindfuckingblowing. I guess they really proved me wrong! Shame on me for even thinking that cause they were incredible! The lead was really involved with the crowd and his stamina was fantastic, and even though he was losing his voice during the encore set, he still managed 3 songs and he was more than happy to do it! New found respect for The Fray. :)

Next up, John Mayer in May. I have a feeling I will cry uncontrollably when I see him walk out onto stage. Gonna prepare tissue packets.
