How many of you actually got passes to go backstage? And how did you come about getting them? I've been to 15 concerts so far on this tour, and 30 total, and never had one. Oh well, I really just want that piece of concert memorablia..besides what come's with it. I've already met the band many times in the past.
Speaking of meeting, I stood outside by the busses faithfully and got to meet Al, again. I told him it was my 30th Anniversary of his concerts, and he seemed overwhelmed by it. He congratulated me, and said he hoped I've enjoyed them all. I said each one keeps on getting better. He had the biggest genuine smile, I've ever seen Al have after meeting him many times, and said thanks. So, that was cool to be able to get that genuine of a reaction from him..he also remembered me from the many previous times I had seen him recently.
Kaffy and other members, sorry I didn't get to meet anyone after the show. I decided that would be when I would try to look for people, and I guess most of you had backstage passes. I was so into the show, that I didn't even realize you were in my row, Kaffy. Sorry..I'll see you at a later show, though...since you're stalking me.
Show was great, and I really enjoyed the introduction into Bob. Al usually talks about not having been to a place forever, and the reason was that he insisted on doing a song completely consisting of palindromes. Instead, at this show, Al said that he had been at Star Plaza 41 times in the past, and he wanted to make the 42nd time special. That was interesting.
Perfect show, and can't wait for Cedar Rapids!
