HOLY SHIIIIIT!
guess who got backstage at Alice Cooper and Cheap Trick!!! fucking me and brittany!!!! :) and i wasnt even wearing my lucky underwear!
Let me just say something, for each hottt rock star at a concert, there are at least 50 creepy guys. the creepyness started at the gas station before we even left. brittany was inside and i was filling up the gigantic blue van and this guy comes over to me (keep in mind that im wearing this half shirt, total ass shorts, and 6 inch heels) and is like "hey do you model?" and i was like "ummm not really, not yet at least" and he was like "because im in this rap group and we need someone to be on the cover of our album" and i was like "oh" and he like pulled out his phone and was like "could i get your number so we could call you?" "yea i dont think so" "is there any number i could get to contact you?" "no" "how old are you?" "17" "oh, are you sure youre not older?" "yes" "so there is no number i can get from you?" "no" and then finally brittany came out and was all confused and thought he was going to the concert and then we left. it was just...no good.
so we finally get to Chastain Park and i change into a jean skirt because all my friends were freaking out and saying they wouldnt let me in blah blah blah. so we walk down to the gates and the stage hand guys are setting everything up, so we walked around to the back and there was a gate and then like 30 feet past that there was a bus. so we waited there for like 2 hours with these other 2 guys and we were getting attacked by mosquitos, it was horrible, we had like 50 bites each. then a black van with really tinted windows went by and we could see some guy inside like bang on the window and wave, so we waved back. then we saw them get out and it was Alice Cooper and his band, but they just went inside and whatever.
a little bit later we saw this guy walking up toward us but we couldnt really see who he was. and then he came around the fence and hes all, "hey im Ryan Roxie, the guitarist for Alice Cooper" so we're all like oh hey. and he gave us this picture flyer things and signed them all and shook our hands and asked our names and stuff. haha there was a mosquito on my leg and he was like "you got a mosquito on you" and then he brushed it off my leg, amazing, it was amazing haha. and he was exxxtremly hot so we had to get a picture with him.
so about 6:30 the gates opened so we decided to go get our seats since we had lawn seats. we bought tshirts and starbucks and just sat down and waited for the show to start. so yea, we're sitting there and brittany goes "oh my god, theres that ryan roxie guy!" and i look down and he walking towards us and he waves so we're like holy fuuuckkk and wave back. then he comes up to us with more of those flyer picture things and says "hey you guys want to do me a favor?" and we're like "yea definitly" and he says "will you hand out some flyers?" and we're like "sure" so he gives us some and says "okay awesome, ill try and get you some backstage passes, is this where youre going to be sitting?" and then he asked our names again and we're like about to die. so we passed out the flyers and went back to our seats.
then right after Cheap Trick came on here comes ryan roxie with 2 backstage passes. and we're like "holy shit! thank you so much!" and hes like "yea no problem, see you guys after the show!" and so we are just flipping the fuck out the whole night. this one guy that was standing near us heard and goes "hey go easy on alice, hes in his sixties." hahahaha i laughed a whole lot.
Cheap Trick was amazing, i dont really know that many songs but they still kicked fucking ass. and they played "Surrender" (of course) which is my favorite Cheap Trick song so that was purdy sweet.
then Alice Cooper and his band came out. ahhhhhhhhhh uh-maz-ing!!! they played all of my favorite songs; "Welcome to My Nightmare", "Be My Lover", "Eighteen", "Schools Out", "Under My Wheels", "Be My Lover", "Feed My Frankenstein", and tons of other ones i cant even remember.
the show was fucking amazing, next to Mötley Crüe it was the best concert ive ever been to. the best part was when alice came out with the giant snake. he also disappeared, got his head cut off, and got out of a straight jacket. but what fucking sucked was that none of our pictures from the actual show came out, i dont know why, maybe because god hates me, but whateva haha.
so after the show...we went out by the buses but the security guard had no idea what was going on and we couldnt understand anything he was saying because he mumbled like fucking crazy. so then we went back inside to the stage and we asked another guard and he was like "yea you just go to the door on the right of the stage" so we walk over there and theres like this whole group of people trying to get backstage and the guard sees me and brittany with passes and hes like "okay you two can come through" and all the people are like "how come we cant come!? why do they get to?! how do you get passes?!" haha suckersss. so we're following this guy and then we see him, alice cooper himself. he was like 5 feet away from us and he was walking into a room full of people that started clapping. unfortunatly that was not where the guy was taking us. he took us into the room next to it that was full of people. so we sit down at a table and then in come the band. it was awesome. we were sitting next to the other guitarists wife and baby, who was fucking adorable. and we heard her saying that alice probably wasnt going to be coming in that room tonight, so that kind of sucked.
so ryan was talking to some fans near the door and we went up by him and sees us and goes "there are my girls!!" and gave us hugs and then he gave me a fucking kiss on the neck....i seriously thought i was going to pass out, too bad hes married hah. so we talked to him for a little while and then it was like 12:30 so we decided to go ahead and leave because they had to leave soon to drive to long island NY for a show the next night. so he gave us hugs again and was like "well i hope to see you girls again" and we were like fuckk yea.
soo that was my Alice Cooper/Ryan Roxie experience. it sort of sucked not being able to meet alice but still, we fucking got backstage and hung out with the band, and i got a kiss from Ryan Roxie. suh-weet.
okay these pictures pretty much suck but then again this is my life we're talking about:
Brittany before the show.
and Brittany after the show haha.
Cheap Trick.
and again, Cheap Trick.
us with Ryan hotinmypants Roxie. (just ignore me and brittany in this picture, we look nasty as hell)
thats the flyer picture thing he signed for us - hooooootttttttt.
and thats the back of it.
my backstage pass biotches.
my tshirt that is entirely too big, but of course the smallest size they had in every shirt was a guys medium, because apparently they think everyone that goes to these shows are obesse. i dano.
*sigh* Concerts are my favorite things ever, and so are rock stars.
