AHHHHH! = ( My friend and I walked around the block before the show and looked in the warner theatre loading alley, but didn't see any buses. We even saw the barnes and noble, but were too stupid to see the buses parked there. So we we hung out in the theatre for about 10 minutes, but then my dad was getting tired and had to go to work today , so we had to go home.
Now I'm gonna have to wait until 2010 or so to meet him... AHHH!
It was a great show, anyways.
I was just looking forward to meeting him for the last 3 months. = (

Poop. I'm sorry you didn't find the busses. Fred told me where they were before the show. I uploaded a couple pics from the show before I decided to crash last night. Will be adding a lot more later after I get them color corrected.

hey all, just got to youngstown, my bday was wonderful, the show was wonderful, the crowd loved the vids, more than the other 9, even though it was a bit louder than usual, i was surprised after, there was no outlets in the theater except back by the sound board, i burn the pix right after so Jon can have to check on the way to the next place if hes bored, so by the time someone mentioned it, i didnt want to miss the meet but Al came to the seats instead, so i asked Chris if he could find me one, told me to hang on, then he came out to get me, figuring he found one, not exactly, they had a cake for me and Al and Jon trying to sing happy bday lol, AWWWWWW i was gonna cry i didnt expect that, though forgot the utencils and plates, I LOVE THOSE GUYS, and Chris also cause skip wouldnt think of doing this for me, ok see those comin tonight

Aww, you got a cake, and a birthday serenade from Al and Jon? That is so sweet, Fred! Looking forward to your pics. Glad you had a great birthday! That would be the best birthday if it happened to me. Al and the guys are indeed awesome!
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Awww. That's awesome. It was good to see you again, Fred. Was Chris the goodlooking fellow with the semi-longish brown hair? He seems very cool. He was directing people to where the busses were before we cleared the theatre.

OK, so best show I've seen this tour! Took my possee this time: Cynthia, Aurora, Veronica, and Jeanne. It was Aurora and Veronica's first Al concert. Cynthia said this show was better than Baltimore. This show was also better than Holmdel which was great, thought the crowd at Holmdel was a lot crazier. Seen Bob and WDTAHTM almost equally, so that's cool. Also had Stormtroopers and Vader this time. (First time I've ever seen a female Stormtrooper!) The Nirvana cheerleaders were really awesome. Again with the boysenberry, gooseberry amd Halle Berry doughnuts. Fred gave us each a piece of B-day cake. Yum! Talked to Steve briefly. Introduced him to Cyn who noodles around on the bass. Met Joe the harmonica guy.

Jeanne, Vee, and I were tourists all day before the show. We did the Old Town Trolley Tour (highly recommended) and spent a lot of time at the Lincoln and Koran War Memorials.

The camera police were out in full force, so I stopped taking pics during Bob. Didn't want my camera taken away since we had backstage passes.

Here are a few photos:

Hey Al(l)!


I had to create a new account because I couldn't remember my old log in. It's been a long time since I posted here.

This show was awesome! It was my friend April's first time to an Al concert (my third and best) and she's not a big Al fan but she had a great time!

I was so happy to finally meet Al.

I was the one making Yoda dance to the music btw if you saw me!

Fred, Happy Birthday! I look forward to hopefully seeing your pictures since you were right in front of me basically :) So they'll be like from my perspective hehe.

Weirdallie I hope you got your picture of you and Al signed! :)

Taralyn those were some great pictures. I'm jealous! From your picture of Bob, I'm wondering if you were in like row E? Cause I think I might have seen you take your camera out a few times. :) The camera police were out a lot! I just a stern fingerpointing for shooting pictures :(.

Does anyone know if the Stormtroopers were from the 501st? Because if so I might have to finally make some armor so I can join the 501st and be ready for the next tour lol.

It was great to have a live performance of Alburquerue!

I hope we get some more tour dates for next year maybe after the band takes some time off for the holidays :)

Ok enough rambling from me lol.

Yes, the stormtroopers were from the 501st. Let me know if you're able to join them. That'd be cool.

Tara, nice pics! I love the shot of your whole group with Al. The individual pics are nice, too. Gosh, I miss him! 37 more days until I get my chance for a new Al and me pic! *sigh*
