ADAM ANT!

Adam Ant came to Melbourne last weekend and we, of course, had tickets!  We are always first in line to anything 1980's.  And in the front row.




He's 57. You will all have to agree, he still rocks it!



Look for me in the front row!!  Next to hubby with the bald head....don't tell him I wrote that.

The concert was great, his focals were strong and clear and he rocked the stage jumping everywhere and posing. The only thing that absolutely ruined it was his floozy backup singer (if you can call someone who sings "ooohh ooohh" a backup singer) who kept reappearing in skimpier and skimpier outfits until in the end she showed up wearing only lingerie with suspenders. You could hear every woman in the audience groan with frustration....and even the men were strangely quiet.

  It was disheartening that Adam thought he needed to reduce the concert to such stunts, his performance was more than enough without dragging some floozy into the mixture whose sole job was to touch herself all night. I was very angry, women like her keep the rest of us in the dark ages.

Anyway, on to me. Hopefully the non floozy type.


This dress seems to be my concert dress as it seems to make an appearance when I need to shake my 80's booty. I teemed it up a huge red petticoat, fishnet stockings and my FABULOUS Tigerlily shoes. Teemed with Victory rolls and bright red and black eyeshadow, my look was definitely Vintage Goth.

Dress & Petticoat: Hell Bunny
Shoes: Miss L Fire
Tights: Retail
Eyeshdows: Fyrinnae

Did any other of my Aussie followers catch any of this shows?

  3. Cutey-patootey.

    I LOVE AA (geez, he looks a bit rough, now). Gee, he knows how to get the women off-side. A partially naked woman? I wonder if it was her idea or his. Or a manager or something. Blah!

  4. I love Hell Bunny. Have a few of their dresses but opted to wear a Hell Bunny top and bondage pants for the Perth show. I was near the front (3 deep) and it was awesome! The back up singer is Georgie who is a little bit infamous, thanks to Russell Brand. I didn't mind her, though do wish she left the clothes ON and rocked out a bit.

    1. Maybe Perth was more liberal than Melb. Everytime she came on all I heard was "Get off!" and "I wish she would go away". We were there to see Adam not her.

      Hell Bunny rocks. I wish they came out with more child prints like the Alice dress.

    1. That's where you are wrong. She isn't his girlfriend.
