I hardly ever post here, but after the VA Beach show I feel like I need to thank someone! This was the first time I bought tickets through 10c and what an amazing experience! FRONT ROW SEATS between Mike and Ed! WOW!! It was my birthday, my hubby just got back from 15 mos. in Iraq and all I can say is OMG!!! I was in shock when I picked up the tix, in shock when we got there, in shock the whole time and still recovering!!! I admit I feel a little guilty, my member number doesn't warrant such amazing seats. But we put in a hard year, and I guess this is a prize at the end!!! Thank you to everyone, 10c, Mike, Ed, Stone, Jeff, Matt and Boom, the fans, EVERYONE!!!! I am spoiled, I got a poster, a signed setlist(from Mike) and so many pics I was handing them out after the show. It was incredible and I thank everyone in the WORLD and out of it for the AMAZING experience!!!

My cup truly runneth(sp?) over Tuesday night! WOW!
I have great pics, will post soon!

    You shouldn't feel guilty, sounds like it went to a very deserving fan. Please thank your husband as well for his service, his (and your) sacrifice means a lot to me.

    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
    I want to go but I want to go with you.

    I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.
  • Now THAT is why this lottery thing is awesome.

    Congrats!! :D:D

    I think I may have won the lotto 2. My # is 309xxx and I was in the 8th row. The girl in front of me in line at the gate was in the 200xxx's and she had section 102. I don't know, but it was a fantastic show.

    Congrats on your fantastic night!

    That was such a great story. I was a little leary about the lottery and everything, but this truly is a neat experiment for this tour. Not that I am even near deserving to get a first row ticket compared to you and your man (thanks for serving our country, by the way), but this goes to show you that this experiment, well...it's giving everyone a shot at being up front and being able to experience the band in a different way.

    Thanks 10C.

    I'm heading down to D.C. tomorrow at 2:00 pm for the weekend. See everyone then!
