Or were you in front of me I was the one with a digital camera and my SLR camera? I tried talking to a few people before the concert. I saw my friend Michelle and her Mom and Ethan was there too so I got to talk to him again he hasn't been on the forum for awhile he said. I was going to try and talk to Jeremy (Alinite27) but there just wasn't enough time before the concert and then I didn't see him afterwards.

But I had fun watching all three of my friends that I brought for the first time enjoy seeing Al for the first time. I can't wait to get my film developed I have 4 rolls. Al had a lot more energy tonight and the crowd this time around was more enthusiastic and getting into it compared to last year. I loved the storm troopers that was the first time he did that at the Turning Stone. And the way they would just start dancing after they did their mover with their weapons. And he really came down into the audience for Wanna Be Ur Lover got some really good film pictures of that. And my friend's daughter loved it they took some pictures on their phone.

I cant beleve they would not let anyone who bought there vip pass from weirdal.com backstage. the only people let backstage were people who got a pass from turning stone. Me and a few other people who had the pass were very upset with them for not letting us backstage. But it was a incredable show and I injoyed it.

One more time... the thing you bought with the VIP package is a commemorative laminate, it is NOT a pass.

Yes, people....don't mention that you want backstage with your pass anymore......people on this board will attach weasels to your face, and tie your feet together, so that you can't stop them....

I mean gees....YOU GOT A POSTER FOR $150!!!...isn't that enough???

btw, I'm joking...I just get so tired of so many people here saying that...it's really old by now :F

Hey, I didn't get a poster for $150... I got a concert ticket for $50, which would mean I got a poster for ~ $100.

I figure I helped defray Al's increased bus-fuel costs. It has to be exponentially harder to go on tour and make a profit these days.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

Yeah...I just wish I actually knew how much Al got out of it...Unfortunately, I figure ArtistArena got their grubby hands all over it....If Al got the majority, then that would feel better about buyin the VIP...
