One down…

I have been dreaming about seeing a-ha in concert, and today I finally got the chance. Despite rain, mud, and a rather painful achilles, I really enjoyed the concert. The highlights were the old classics “Crying in the Rain”, “Manhattan Skyline”, “Summer Moved On”, and “Hunting High and Low”.

I don’t have a written list of “things to do before I die”, but if I did, this concert would be on that list.

Now I’m going to watch a concert DVD of a-ha from Valhall in 2002, where Anneli Drecker sang backup vocals, and made the concert one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen!

    It was a really fantastic concert. If you like Manhattan Skyline you should get the concert DVD I link to in this post, it has a wonderful version of that song :)

    I think a-ha has great music! :) Plus, I was listening to them a lot when I was a kid, especially when Take on me was a hit.
