Went up stairs, sat at one of the tables , drank Coke with No Sugar and use mobile. The show started at 8.04pm with the band coming on stage with some wearing KISS shirts and performed in the first set songs by Twisted Sister, Alice Cooper, Guns N Roses, Van Halen, Bon Jovi and many others with people coming on the dance floor and there was an interval which I had an Coke With No Sugar to drink. In the Second set the band came out with the lead singer wearing an Def Leppard shirt and the drummer wearing an rock and roll singlet and did an set of classic 80's rock and roll songs by Motley Crue, KISS, Journey and amongst others and some more came on the dance floor which everyone was enjoying themselves . I left at 10.15pm before the show ended, Dad picked up, stopped at Hungry Jacks Wynnum where we bought burgers, fries and Coke With No Sugar and came home. It was an FANTASTIC show which everyone had an great time and i had an great time too and also the band were FANTASTIC playing great 80's rock songs which has stood the test of time.
