Yeah, I get how you feel about the whole 'back row' experience... I had to sit at a balcony seat and though I was one of the people screaming and giggling their heads off I kinda felt like I missed out a bit on the Coco experience as well. I didn't mind Coco getting drowned out sometimes by the band though, they were just phenomenal and for me it was just too easy to forgive them :P Plus they're really nice guys too, which I'm sure you'd know after meeting La Bamba :) And I'm glad that you had such a great time ^_^

Exactly. I was doing my best to participate, but I kinda felt like the only gay eskimo most of the time. =/

The band was phenomenal, I agree - my best friend, who was supposed to be the recipient of my second ticket, would've appreciated them so much more than me, though, being the band kid she is. I won't lie and say I wasn't more interested in the Cone Bone, though. =P

And if La Bamba represents the rest of the band, I totally agree. He was great, and he never seemed harruanged by our photo-mobbing and fannish requests. XD

Oh, I got to meet nearly every member of the LPB; I missed out on the bass player and Jerry Vivino :( They were all really nice though, really upbeat people ^_^ Mike Sweeney was awesome too.

I figured all the die-hards probably nabbed tickets to the first show, but I didn't find out about the tour dates until after they'd sold out, so I got what I got. Oh well, at least we had doppelganger!Conan. =P

conan group ftw blackbird_num9 May 25 2010, 05:50:47 UTC

yea man, those fuckig hipsters not laughing
i was in the middle balcony and i swear i was cracking up until my sides hurt and just plain ol geeking out

the rows near the stage was where the action was at!!

and i had the chance to hang out near the theater the first night and met scott healy! he was really nice and such!

and conan came out after the show but there were about 40 ppl waiting there and the ppl fucking rushed him! i was almost trampled since i was near the front :/
i got good footage of the thing tho

I knoooow. Ugh.

I stared at that chick with the orange wig with such envy. XD You know the one.

Which door were you guys at? We were at the one across from the tour buses. . . I was told Conan came out on the other side of the building. There were only about 20 or so of us; maybe that should've been a clue to me. I wasn't familiar enough with the theatre to know there was another exit, though. =/

but yea...he did come out from the other side apparently. oh well. i saw him the day before in the alley

I'm fantastically late, but I just wanted to say I'm incredibly happy you got to see Conan! And I hope, perhaps, one of these days you'll actually get to meet him. :D
