Thanks Irving Fans from the Yellow Signed Kidney Guy.

edited May 2006 in Given To Fly (live)
It's belated, but I had lo-in issues this week. Heart felt thanks to all PJ fans at the IP show last Friday. I was the guy with the yellow sign who offered his kidney and good karma for a ticket and got such well wishes from everyone on line. I won't say how, but I was in legitimately by the first song. And I kept my kidney.

In the spirit of good karma, I was actually given 2 tickets for free and did the right thing. I could have turned to the 200 desperate people behind and sold the extra for an obscene amount, but instead gave it away to a guy who had been there as long as I was. Surprised myself . Anyway, it felt good, and I hope others do it when they have extra's in the future. What goes around comes around.

PS, the show rocked (as expected).

    i'm so glad you got in.
    so glad.
    i also did. i was the girl with the sign on the corner.
    and i know you know what i mean when i say if i hadn't gotten in it would have been worth it just waiting and hoping...and i too say thanks to all of the pj fans who were so encouraging and supportive--
    and of course, thanks deeply deeply to the ticket provider...

    Awesome! I was looking for you inside, just to let you know I made it. I think I'll bring my signs to NJ on the 3rd when I barBQ before the show. Stop by and say hi if you want.

    The Peace sign worked. The guy who took it was kind of shady, but still got right after me.

    that's funny. i don't care-if he got in, good for him. i made that sign with such good intentions, so it's all good..
    it was a once in a lifetime.
    and i am honestly so glad you got in too. i actually felt bad i got in before you even though i know i was there before you-i could just tell you wanted it as badly...
    so maybe i'll see you in jersey.
    take care.
