So I can't believe that lastnight (Tuesday 24th June 2025, continuing this blog on 26th June 2025) happened. My husband and I went to see Billy Idol and it was fantastic. He is something special and played his music this morning. I am still full of excitement and wish I could relive it. I know he is in his 70's but it goes to show that if you follow your dreams that success is out there and you can achieve your dreams and have longevity.
I wanted to share footage but it didn't allowing me to, so here is a photo I took of Billy on stage. It was at the Wembley Arena in London and I was a bit nervous because the terrace we were seated in, was quite steep but didn't allow it to affect my enjoyment.
We went to see him in 2014 at the Hammersmith Apollo (we meaning my husband and I and my brother in law who didn't come this time as he passed away) but it was too small and you could hardly see him.
I love a concert and so not sure if we will see him again but who knows. The Next person and band I'd like to see live in concert is the High Flying Birds with Noel Gallagher, who sings with this band and great partnership.
Each year I like to go to a concert and would love to go to a music festival again and perhaps the one in Hyde Park if they do it again. Stevie wonder is at Hyde Park on the 12th of July but the tickets are way out of my price range https://www.bst-hydepark.com/events/stevie-wonder-sat-12-july/. You do have to get in quick as the tickets to sell out fast and I have too many other commitments, but it is worth it if you book a ticket and make a day of it, and also the weather is good.
It was really nice and not too hot. There are places to eat. My husband and I had Five Guys and was good as we didn't spend a lot. I had also bought a T-Shirt from the Merchandise stall and they great to have as they do last a long time and its not everyday I am gonna see Billy Idol so for me it was great value.
So it good evening and still buzzed and think will be highlight for 2025 so far.
Many thanks for reading,
