Worst concert ever: Marius Mueller Westernhagen at the Niedersachsenstadion
in Hannover. My little brother (12 or 13 then) and his friends wanted to go
and I had to drive them. Bad music, bad people (This woman - I guess she was
25 - was throwing pistachio peels at the people in front of her. Ok, this may
be funny if you are doing it the first time, but she continually did it for
FOUR hours!) and me VERY bored. At least after half an hour they stopped asking
me to stand up and dance with them. When the concert was over, we waited three
hours till we could leave the parking area, and finally the car broke down.
What a day! (In fact I had lots of fun - didn't take it too seriously)
