It's been a busy weekend for Jamie!
On Saturday, he had a volleyball tournament - held at St. Charles (the old Nickel District - for you absentee Sudburians). Their St. John's team has a great coach this year - it's the principal of the school - and she knows her volleyball! Starting at 10:30 am, Jamie's team played their first game against St. Anne and they tied (each team won a set). They had a short break and then played six more games in a row! The guys were exhausted by that last game - but they won a couple more games and there were a couple of really close games - lost by only a couple of points. The guys played really well!
Tonight - we (Corrie, Jamie and I) went to the INXS concert at the Sudbury Arena. It was amazing! They put on a great show! The band played a good mix of old and new songs - and Jamie even sang along during a couple of the songs. Jamie's favourite part was when they played "Pretty Vegas" - his favourite song by the group. JD was really good.
The part Jamie liked the least was - waiting in line to get in to the arena (it was windy and cold) and then when we got in where it was warm - we still had to wait till the show started - in Jamie's words - "It was boring." You can only watch people trying to find their seats for so long.
We had really good seats about 7 rows up and to the right side of the stage. If you've been to the arena, we were just up from the players' bench. Jamie could see everything, even though he thought the "light show" was a little bright! And, of course, he wore his ear plugs the entire time. We all know how much Jamie hates loud noises!
What a good first concert experience! And to think - he almost didn't even get to go! Jennifer was supposed to go, but she decided against it - not sure why exactly. Anyhow, I asked Jamie to go in her place.
When we were driving back in the car tonight, Jamie said - "That's the dumbest smart decision she has ever made!"
