Thunderstruck--over Angus's hair

Just saw a couple of videos from the Bucharest show on Sunday....whoa! Angus came back with really red hair, pretty long, too. Of course, he looked great. Hope I get to see him close up in Paris to check it out.

Drove up to Austin and back with AC/DC loud n clear all the way. Would have been a great trip just because of the music!

AC/DC Shoots to Thrill in Iron Man 2

okay, okay, the movie has almost nothing to do with AC/DC and of course I didn't think it did, but I do think the two songs played, Shoot to Thrill and in a flashback, as well as the end credits, Highway to Hell, added significantly to the film experience. So great to hear AC/DC loud in a theater. Robert Downey, Jr. is excellent and the other cast members were well-chosen, if not always used to best advantage. Garry Shandling had a great time playing a total jerk senator--is that an oxymoron?--and Sam Rockwell went to town being an insufferable nemesis to Iron Man. Felt bad for Don Cheadle, although, trouper that he is, he gave it his all.

good way to charge up for the trip!

Bibi's Back, yeah I'm back

It's been a long, if not restful hiatus, but it's only a month before Bibi goes to Paris to see Angus on stage AGAIN!!! Hopefully the weather is better in Paris than here. Of course, everything is better in Paris than it is anywhere in the world, so moot point. Just so excited to think I'll be in the most wonderful city in the world A-N-D I get to see AC/DC. Already know I won't get to see Raymond and fam (unless I win the lotto before I get there) which is bit of a downer. On the positive side, though, Bibi will be in PARIS!!!!

Haven't seen Iron Man 2 yet. Knowing that only Shoot to Thrill and H2H are in the movie makes it less of a must-see, but hope to see it before I leave. The important thing is that Bibi has both the Collector's Edition and the plain vanilla version of the Ironman 2 soundtrack/dvd set. Which one will go to Paris for the boys' autographs? can't wait, can't wait, can't wait to see Angus again....
