I'll be there, 3rd row in the Pit. Just got my tickets today. I somehow missed the original email! Not much left for the Czar level, but a fair amount of VIP. I can't wait!

For anyone who went to the show tonight & attended the VIP bash beforehand... the couple celebrating their 45th anniversary are my parents.

That's so sweet! I wish your parents many more years of love and happiness together!

Happy 45th anniversary to Mr. & Mrs. Miller! They are cool people and not just because they picked me to win the costume contest. It was really close though. I was sure that the DTBS couple would have won. There costumes were spot on and there lip sync was good too. There were a lot of costumes there actually. Top 3 were me, Jackie (Cheese Sandwich) and the DTBS couple. In between Kimo's show and Al's show, we walked around Schenectady and ate dinner with Bob and Jeremy at Johnny's which was across the street, but didn't open until 5. So we got to the VIP party around 5:45 just in time to see Ethan get selected to the final 3 in the foil hat contest. I thought his swimsuit and talent were a little better than the kid who won, but being a kid helps a lot in these contests of course. The highlight of the room in Proctor's where they had the VIP party was Frank's 2000" TV! The whole wall was a giant TV, it was cool!

Concert was fun, the theater was pretty nice, and the lighting was exceptional. Al mentioned that he had been touring since the 80s and this was the first time he's ever played Schenectady, which was pretty cool. I had a great view of the stage, but there was a guy with a kind of big head in my line of sight so I didn't take too many pictures. He wasn't blocking my view but would have been in all my pictures so I decided to sit back ad enjoy the show. A

After the show I waited out by the bus for 2 hours with about 14 other dedicated fans. It started raining lightly and they all stuck around. After 2 hours we were told to line up single file and present our ticket stubs as proof we were at the concert before we could meet Al. The one item, no pictures rule was still in effect. I did have Al ask me how to spell Schenectady though which I found amusing. Kimo was walking around and he signed my drum head too and thanked us again for coming out to both shows. We hung around with Ethan and Bob after the buses left for a little bit. On the drive home, I drove past the band bus and crew bus on the highway.

I LOVE that photo of Al choking you. I will never get over it. His face also looks so sexy I could die

Dave and Jackie... you wouldn't be interested in adopting me, would you? I can carry all your stuff at the shows, I'm skilled in cooking, cleaning, and so many other things, I don't eat much, and I could even sleep in a really small space (Harry Potter style!).

I got the paperwork right here!
