Like a Backstreet Party..
Never Gone Tour 2005!!
Dude..that had to be the BEST weekend EVER. Let me lay out details..shall I?..
So we (Erin, Amanda M. and Sue..accompanied by the one and only Dayna) get there..sleep..wake up..shop..then head on over to the amplitheatre at about 3:00 pm on Friday, September 2..four and a half hours untill the concert.
So we get there and we were bored and wanted to go to the sound check so we walked around to the back and saw the body guards drive by on there cool little golf cart. We got a little freaked out and went back to the font and sat down..and notice that the body guards are like..talking and looking at us..so we're like...*the look* Can I help you?? And we also see the soundcheck winners ion line and another group of girls around the body guards and a radio dj. So we get up and I asked this girl what was going on and she said, "I have no clue." "Are you girls in line," asks the DJ. "UUUUhm, we have no clue what's going," I answered. "Oh..well then come here if you want one," and she hands us wristbands to the effing soundcheck. We almsot pissed ourselves.
So we walk into the amplitheater..and they are like...RIGHT THERE. Like...five feet infront of us. I almost died inside a little. But I was actually a lot calmer then I thought I was going to be..that was nice. LOL!
Then they sang and answered questions and gave me funny looks (AJ! Heck yes!)when they were done everyone went up to the guard rail which was walking room only..so like two feet from the stage..and the guys walked down the stage so we could take group pictures and they get to our end and they were..uuum..quite close..lemme tell ya. And this girl asked if Brian would sign her ticket and he replies with, "Only if you tell all these other people that only you can have an autograph, no else." And she just looked at him like...uuuuhmmm sad..and he laughs and is like..just kidding haha..and so he takes her ticket and pen and her pen didn't work. So I was like, "Here you can use my pen!" And so he signs some autographs, including some for Erin, Amanda, Sue and myself and then I was like, "uh..can I have my pen back please *chuckle*" And he said, "Yea, you cap is down there." "Thanks!" "Mmhmm." And then security guard handed me my pen and all of us we just like...did that really just happen??? LOL!
Then we farted around for two hours, waiting for the concert to start, spent a BUTT LOAD of money and wish the opening acts DIDN'T SUCK.
Then the concert..uuhm..WOW. It was sooo good. I was HIGHLY impressed. They had fireworks and big booms and lazers..and SNOW! LOL! It was the coolest thing EVER.
After the concert we tried looking around the building to maybe find them..but gave up and figured they were on their way to Canada.......nope. They were chillin' in Portland...RUDE!
BUT! There's always next time..that's right..there are rumors of a second leg of the tour..I'm SO there.
There were a few mishapps..but other then that..it was so much fun and it was definetly what I needed!
AAAAAAND PICTURES! They're kinda crappy because my camera is crap..but eeeh..it works..
