    Oh, and I also saw Tom Colicchio (the bald judge from Top Chef on Bravo) outside the venue after the show!

    I LOVE Top Chef! :D

    I offered him one of my home made cookies but he said the raisins were overpowering and he didn't get a sense of who I was as a chef based on the texture of the oatmeal.

    *shame*

    What up? What you change/lose your old screen name?

    I had unbelievable luck this past month. Lotto MSG2, 2nd row center. The Ed night row 3rd row far left. 2nd night 4th row dead center. Met Jim James and then Mark Messier. Awesome 2 days!

    My friends saw you night 1 but by the time they told me I didnt see you. I am sure I'll bump into you one of these days.

    Springsteen was def. there with his son. Row KK on the isle, on the right side of the theater. He came in 10 minutes late and left 10 minutes early. He sat 1 row behind Jim James and 2 rows behind Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.
  • I'm not trying to spread rumors, but there was talk that Jeff Ament was around and hanging out with Eddie on his bus after the show. Once again, it's completely unsubstantiated; did anyone else hear this? I was really psyched at the possibility of meeting him, since I wore my Jeff Ament shirt last night!

    Were you the guy in the Ament shirt who was across the street at that Mexican restaurant?

    I heard this guy was there

    He apparently had a T-shirt that read "Shooter" on it, yelled out "Let's go Yankees", and basically acted like a complete dickbag the entire show.

    I met mark Messier on the way out - said "You have incredible taste in music, and you're not a bad hockey player either" he laughed and we talked about the show for a little bit and he shook my hand. awesome experience.

    Are you talking about before the show? At El Conde? If so, yes, that was me. I was one of the guys who didn't have a seat and kept getting in the servers' way. My bad. But I didn't stay there all night, I did go to the show!
