i was lucky enough to get doug and i tickets to another hilltop show and it was amaaaaaazing. the guys always deliver with heaps of energy and one epic song after another. we had the best night and loved every minute, but not going to lie, my ears are still ringing.
they absolutely get the crowd into it and make sure every one is having a good time, which is one of the reason their tickets are worth every cent.
the only bad bit of the concert was when some nub a few rows in front of us set off a firework (no i am not kidding... seriously who does that!) and a girl by him was burnt by it - i have no idea where it ended up but i hope no one on that end was hurt! they got out of there the second they set it off, so i doubt security would have caught them, but oh my word did it freak us out!
hilltop hoods have released a lot of their albums with the adelaide symphony orchestra playing their backing tracks... and even toured with them. we were lucky to see their last show with them on hand, this one wasn't with the orchestra, but they did still have a couple of instruments supporting them which made their great show even better!
at one stage they had everyone turn their lights on during their song "through the dark" which was incredible, i was absolutely blown away at how much light there was in the arena!
such a good night!
the super super lucky one in all this was doug's sister who is visiting from america, she's always wanted to go to a hilltop concert and we ended up having a spare ticket as our friend couldn't make it! she was super chuffed and we loved having her with us. family night out!
