"Old" Ledgie Returns

[Carlene]

Hello Everyone...

This is my first post on the Ledge in years! I had participated back in 1997 during the Dance tour, then *shamefully* fell away for awhile.

I love reading everyone's posts about the band and the new tour.
The "unpopular FM opinions" thread is exceptionally hilarious!

I just wanted to stop by to encourage anyone who was considering trying for better seats for their shows to DO IT! I checked Ticketmaster for the Pittsburgh show earlier this week and found center section SECOND ROW! I bought them, of course!

I, too, fell victim to the "scam club" and my original seats were not horrible, not not good, either. I am totally disgusted with the entire fan club experience, but live and learn I guess.

Things that Make Me Grit My Teeth: A Pittsburgh soft rock radio station gave away tickets to tonight's concert and the kicker was also winning BACKSTAGE PASSES to meet the band! Of course I tried to win, and (of course) I failed. The woman who won was screaming like a banshee.

I'm not bitter that I didn't win....really...I'm not.

Anyway, it's nice to be back...and hopefully I'll have some interesting experiences to share with you from tonight's show.

(Hi Lori ~ hope to see you there!!)

PS-One other thing...for the person who posted a while ago about the Lindsey Buckingham backstage pass with the cowboy riding the pig...and wondering if it was for real....it is. I bought a T-shirt with that very image when I saw him open for Tina Turner in Pgh in 1993. Needless to say, I've never worn it! Hey, it was Lindsey-related...so I had to have it!!
