PART TWO
I headed out to Macy’s and did a bit of shopping. I got an outfit that looked more appropriate for a concert on the Sunset Strip in the 80’s hair band era then a Mac concert. I still kept the outfit anyway. LOL I go downstairs to the bar and get a quick bite to eat. I then head up again and get already for my magical night. I had to try and get my disposable camera hidden in my purse. I go to the lobby, catch a cab and go to the will call window. I then stare at my ticket in disbelief. I was then told to go to the VIP entrance. After about a half hour wait we were let in to the arena. We had to go through security. I handed the guy my bag and he looked at it for about 2 seconds and gave it back to me. I go to get some soda and then to my seat. Well, I spilled a bit of the soda on my ticket in about 5 seconds after I got to my seat. It was OK no damage was done. I really kind of made a mess near my seat. I was afraid that I was going to be thrown out already.
I met a few different fans before the show. I met a girl who was sitting in front of me and she asks me “haven’t I seen you at a show before”? I laugh and say yes it was Las Vegas. So we chatted for a bit about Vegas and stuff. I am sorry but I did not get her name but I know that she was from New Mexico. Then I met a gentleman who was in front row. He was from either New York or New Jersey and had been to about the same amount of shows that I had been to. I am sorry but I did not get his name either. I am do apologize to anyone that I did meet and did not get their name. I was a little out of it.
I then see a girl with pretty long dark curly hair. She was taking her front row seat. I then realize that it was Tiffany (EnchantedSLN) from some of the message boards and mailing lists. I went over to say hello. She was very lucky to get her seats from the fan club. She was with her friend Anita who is also on some boards and lists. I am sorry but I don’t think that I formally introduced myself to her. I had received an email earlier in the day from Stephanie (Gypsysara) on the Ledge. She said that she scored Floor 2 Row 2!! I see a girl go enter her seat from my end of the row. I think to myself “I bet that’s Stephanie.” Sure enough she seems to be sitting in the area where she said her ticket was located. I say to myself hey I am going to ask so I did and it was her. We talked for a bit and she was just so nice and one of the few real people that I met in LA. I am sorry but I don’t mean to offend anyone from the LA area but I did not have a good experience with some people out there.
More to come later...
