Your TLE milestones...

[May]

OK, it's just occured to me, that I have an anniversary on Monday - no not my wedding - something much more important than that (*jk*), the anniversary of my first TLE gig!!!!

Yep, 9 years, 51 gigs and countless kilometres and dollars later, I thought it might be nice if we all share some of the TLE milestones that are special to each of us!!

Here's mine:

Sep 18, '97 - First time seeing TLE as TLE.

Feb 28, '98 - First meeting of Scott!

Nov 16, '98 - First time meeting Chris. First LATW.

Sep 28, '99 - First side of stage. First partial meeting of Trav.

Oct 20, '00 - Palladium gig - first secret show, and soooo excited!

LATW '00 - First time properly meeting Trav. Soooo loved his passion.

Sep '01 - The accident... Thought my world had stopped.

June 28(?)'02 - Redwings, The 'Ev - First time meeting Andy!

Dont get me wrong, there are sooooooo many fav moments that still make me smile from over the years, but these are the more major milestones that stand out

So share!

I only have a few highlights due to lack of money and because no one ever comes to tassie, so I have to fly to see them!

Dec 04 - First ever TLE concert, even though it was at the Falls Festival. I was slightly (make that more than slightly!) drunk and so happy that they were right there in front of me playing all of my fave songs! Falls hasn't been the same since!

May 06 - First time seeing the boys play on their own tour. First time I have been outta tassie for a concert.
- Also the first time I got to actually see them...as in "hello!-there-they-are- just-20-meters-away" sort of seeing! But I couldn't stop to say Hi as they needed to go (they came outta soundcheck and wanted food or something!

TOMORROW NIGHT!! - First time I will see the boys on their own tour in Tassie. I was only 10 or 11 when they last toured (1999) and couldn't go

They've been to Tassie a few other times (twice i think) but that was for festivals, and festivals just aint the same when it comes to a TLE performance!!

I think you're talking about the same show haha. In case you wanted to know, the V-bus Fed Square gig was Dec '05.
