Attending a corporate networking drinks evening last night, on my way out I check my phone to find several missed calls from Espadrille and a text saying 'Ring me NOW!'. Assuming the worst I ring her and her phone is answered by Son #1 in a very relaxed manner 'Hi Dad'.
So - whats the matter? Nothing bad it turns out but if I can get to the Manchester Arena in 20 minutes we have free seats in a private box for the Bryan Adams concert. Wooooooo!
Happy to be a musical eclectic (Beethoven and Bryan Adams within 8 days!), I toddle off and have a very enjoyable evening singing out loud with most of the songs - its surprising how many songs of his I know. 12 people in the box, only a few I know, but all connected to a member of staff and her neice who got the heads up about the box being available for free as long as we buy some booze. Happy to oblige, and knowing we were taking the tram home I settle donw to a nice beer and a large bag of Kettle Crisps. I could do this again...

Glad you enjoyed BA, not something I'd pay for specially, but would go on a freebie.
Blagged a box at the Albert Hall for a Fish gig years ago from Cedric Brown, the famed British Gas privatisation "fat cat". I was sharing a student house with his daughter at the time. Great night out.

My sixth-form girlfriend was an Adams fan a whole album before his breakthrough with Run to You , so I kinda got in on the ground floor. Like Vić, I wouldn’t put him top of my list now, but I’d certainly have grabbed a freebie as Esp did. Good work!
