The Concert

This moment I've been awaiting for a number of years To see ones heroes live see them crunching their gears I'm on my way to Glasgow with workmates and friends To finally see live their fantastic tracks they have penned Anticipation now flows into the concert arena we await It's the buzz, the hungered wishing, terrific time trait The moments now close for the lights start to dim For this three piece on song a most wonderful vim Strobe lights, Bass intro, my awaiting now starts To us fans they're our hymns soon singing our hearts Shouting cheering hearing the first vocals now voiced To the chorus now reached such incredible rejoice Mellow chords to lead guitar which slice through the air Decibels so loud for we simply sing and just stare Drum solo so immense it's orchestral to our ears So energetic melodic sublime, to magnificent tier Thanks, plaudits are shared, encore after encore It's not just their lyrics, it's their quite beautiful scores This moment I've been awaiting for a number of year's To see ones heroes live, I have to admit there were tears .

James my friend, it is wonderful to find the soul who can reverberate a score without the harken of instruments dear poet ! You have magically accomplished this feat easily ! TY...also, I went to two Queen concerts...the first one was their famous, "we are the champions" intro. I think that is when I started loosing my hearing *smiles* Later my friend..much love, james

So loved concerts Jan. I don't go to many now, probably because I've seen who I've wanted to see. Sadly I never seen Queen, my favourite band, hugs//James xx
