Hi I'm Leanne, I live in the Chester le Street, I have the best boyfriend in the world (love you Nick!), I LOVE live music... I'm always going to see bands, whether they be local bands or signed bands. You can't beat live music! Although having rock music absolutely blasting in the car is pretty mint too... I think that might be why I love driving so much, cos it means I can have Gotthard or Tyketto or Vaughn or Bon Jovi or whatever, blasting so much that the wing mirrors vibrate! Hell yeah! Anyway, at the moment I'm at Sunderland Uni doing Media Production - Video & New Media which I hate, nearly finished though yay! I have no idea what I'm gonna do when I finish it! To be honest I've hated being at uni so much that now I can't be arsed with finding a career, I just want a job. I want a job that earns me enough money so I can just do what I want, ie go see bands. I need a new car then I can travel to pretty much anywhere I want to see bands. I have a great part-time job in HMV in the MetroCentre.My favourite band are Bon Jovi - people take the piss outta me cos it's "not cool" to like them or they're a "Fisher Price rock band" as a guy at work likes to put it, but I don't care. I have loved them since 2000 because their music really appeals to me. Even more so it carries a message of 'have hope', 'don't give up' and 'don't let anything get you down', which really appeals to me. Their songs have various meanings for me and no-one can change them. Going to see them live is an experience that I've never had at any other live concert - you can sit and chat with other fans, make friends, and then when the band are on it's such an amazing atmosphere! 72000 people all singing the same song is just wow. So if you don't like them, then fair play, each to their own, but don't take the piss outta me or the band just because you don't like them.
I took these photos at Hampden Park in Glasgow. I was soooo close to the front and I'm soooo proud of these pictures!
Nickelback were supporting Bon Jovi at the same concert and I was extremely impressed. I like them a bit before but didn't really consider myself a fan, but they completely amazed me at Hampden.
