YAY! We made it!
We head in & I immediately spot Gardenstategirlie working at the radio station booth. She and her eyebrows look gorgeous, as usual. We say a quick hello & make a beeline for the bathroom (not crowded, very clean) and to go to get a drink. Well, of course, husband's friend's annoying wife doesn't drink beer, or hard lemonade, so we have to go inside & get something from the bar. She decides a Jack Daniel's cooler would be OK, so I buy her the $7 drink. I order a Corona, afterwards realizing it's a "jumbo" bottle. I think it was 22oz - $11.
I try not to focus on the fact that I could have bought a whole CASE of beer with the money I just spent on 2 drinks. The woman asks if I want lime, I say yes. She puts 1/16th of a lime in the giant cup.
Great. Thanks.
We head back out to check out the merchandise. I flip throught the cheesy program & decide on the $5 keychain.
The burgundy baby doll Tshirt calls my name, but I pretend not to hear. The burgundy hooded sweatshirt didn't dare even look at me, let alone call me. Perhaps I will meet up with them again at the end of the tour on Nickfix. At a discount.
So, we run into Mike (wildheart69) and Rox & Lisa from Mick's board, as well as their friend Gia (who I've seen countless times in their photos, but had never met up until now.) Very cool to see them again, it's always great to run into people who "get" you. If you know what I mean. We go back over to Marissa & take a couple pics.
Me & Ris:
Me making out with my front row ticket. Oh, and husband's friend's annoying wife:
We hear Chris go on & decide to make our way down front. Somehow, we ended up missing 1/2 his set. I don't know how this happened, honestly. What we did see was Mike being invited to sit on the stage for the rest of Chris's set. I saw his Petty Tshirt from afar & squinting, I asked Kelli "is that MIKE?!?!" It was. Very cool.
Chris Isaak puts on a fantastic show. He's funny, very flirty, and a damn good singer & performer. I felt a little naughty when he made eye contact with me. Teehee. Love the suit too.
