As I mentioned last week, we went to see The Wiggles in Memphis at the Cannon Center. I’ve finally gotten around to processing the pictures I took, and you can see them all here. The front row is a very picture friendly spot, though maybe not the best place for small kids.
When got to the Cannon Center, Liam had been cooped up in the car most of the day, and he decided that he was not going to be happy unless we let him crawl around. Luke was enjoying himself until he tripped and fell pretty hard. I think that threw him off the rest of the night.
Neither of the boys were as enthusiastic as we had hoped. They never took their eyes off the stage, but the big smiles we were expecting just weren’t there. Cassie and I have speculated as to the problem, but we really have no idea. Luke was dancing and singing to one of his Wiggles DVDs before we got out of the parking garage. It’s just one of those things I suppose.
All that said, we’d go back in a heartbeat. In fact, Cassie has already been trying to talk me into catching another stop on this tour. It’s probably not going to happen, but we’ll definitely see them if they come back to the US in a year or two.
We were under the impression that they would do mostly songs from their newest DVD. That had me a bit concerned, because they boys haven’t seen that one yet. As it turns out, they did maybe one song from their new DVD. the rest were old favorites.







which camera?
also does Luke know who Jimi Hendrix is?
I was using my Canon Rebel XTi with my Tamron 17-50/2.8 lens. I was afraid my lens would be too short to get any good pictures, but as it turns out it was just right for the front row. All those pictures were taken with Liam in my lap. :)
I might have taken some liberty with some of the captions. :) No, Luke doesn’t know who Jimi Hendrix is, though if he keeps up his interest in guitars I’ll have to introduce him in a year or so.
