    OK, my turn...

    We're coming from South West Australia to get married in NYC on the Thursday and then will be bringing my stepson (who Eddie spoke to in the crowd at Perth 09 - the 12 year old up the front) to the Friday MSG gig (his second ever concert). Can we have backstage passes??? :lol:

    Or at least swap my 211 section seats for the 10c ones I missed out on :P

    I've told the story on here before, but here it is, basically me and a friend travelled from Glasgow to New York to see PJ, although we had were seeing them in Camden, and just travelling to Camden for the day, then back to NYC. Anyway, we decided to go to MSG to just soak up the atmosphere and maybe catch a glimpse of the band coming in, while outside the venue we got chatting to some of the crew as they were working to and from the buses...we had no intention of getting anything off them, as they turned out to be really nice guys, and helps us out ALOT over those two night, we hang out on the bus after the show and got lots of free merch and stuff...and these passes.

    Almost two years later, and ALOT if travelling to and from America... i am going to live with one of the guys (my now boyfriend) for 6 months.

    So I was right... viewtopic.php?f=4&t=130034#p2934593

    It is cool to check out the scene backstage, but if you don't have any sort of affiliation with the organization, the odds are you will just look like a fish out of water and bring unwanted attention to yourself!

    so true, I snuck backstage once to meet Ween. It was cool, but definitely felt like I shouldn't be there and left very quickly. Oh well, meeting deaner was awesome!
    Straight down the center for a hot chicken dinner!
