How was it??mswirtz wrote:Yep, I am going! I have VIP 7th row but it says limited view but I don't think it will be that bad.
Yeah, all the shows of his that I have been to have been seated so mostly people stay seated. Except during the star wars songs, most people stood for those. The meet and greets have been short, not even 30 seconds. I am sure that is the biggest complaint.Alicepuppy wrote:The show was awesome, the crowd was much different than Summerfest. I couldn't believe people weren't standing, but they were into the show no doubt. I'm glad your meet was good and you got to get a good picture, my meet was extremley short and my picture was embarrasing. It was cool walking backstage and seeing the band members and stormtroopers.
If I ever get rich or make way more money I would love to do a pay it forward on the next tour, buy someone a czar ticket or whatever the meet & greet passes are calledYankopunk wrote:This is so wonderful to hear! Thanks so much for sharing this!
I can only imagine how it must feel for the ladies to have Al singing to them, gyrating, and seducing them. It's always so fun to see everyone's reactions.
That is beyond epic that you got upgraded to Czar for free! I'll bet that the girl won't forget how happy she made you with that upgrade.
I saw Steve, too, in the hallway right before my meet and greet. He was talking with one of the other fans, who I'm pretty sure he knew from before as I overheard something about him going to several shows, and I was too nervous to say anything to him as he walked by. The Star Wars guys were great; you could tell that they love doing this.
That's so nice of you to offer something to the people who gave up the ticket. I would've definitely tried to pay them, buy them dinner, or something. It's wonderful to see generous people in this world.
Al's a sweetheart, isn't it? If I ever get to meet him again, I know I'd be on air, too. I still can't believe I met him, as it is!
