WaaaWhooo!!!

The concert was AWESOME!!! I am so so so glad I went! This may get long as I share my excitement from start to finish LOL, hope you don?t mind, hehe.

Getting There..

Janie and I left and went to the Bart train place, we bought out tix for that after we fought the stupid machine that all it wanted to do was spit out money out back at us. After you get the tix you have to stick them in these machine (Silver knows this but not east coast peeps) and walk through, well they aren?t big enough for a wheelchair to get through, so you have to get the attended to open this other gate to go through, well, the attended had a sign on the window saying "Be back in 30 minutes" so I had to get out of my chair and close the wheelchair and walk through. Then we could not find a elevator for the life of us, so I went up the escalator and Janie took the wheelchair backwards the escalator. We had a few other problems on Bart but we got there.

Getting to our seats..

So we got the venue and asked where we went to get to out wheelchair seating and they were like go see this lady. So we get to her and she takes us down this elevator and next thing I know I am backstage!! You have to walk through there to get to the field unless you can use stairs. Granted I did not see the guys, but it was cool. I saw all the sound guys and some of the band people. The lady with us was so cute, she was problem like 50-56 and she was like "See that candle abra (candle stick thingy)?" I am like yeah "They use that on the set, isn?t that cool?" "See those golf cart things?" yeah "Those are the *actual* carts the drive of in after the show. They go right down that hall into the bus" "While we are walking the guys are right behind this wall and there is elevator right there for them" she was so sweet! Right before she left us she whispered "Don?t tell anyone but I think I like bsb better. But I have also never seen Nsync perform and I have since bsb so I can?t really say who is better" she cracked me up.

Our Seats...

They made a little elevated pipe foundation with plywood on it and a ramp up to it and that was in the back of section 8, not really close at all, there were no seat #?s so pretty much first come, first serve in that section. I had one girl in front of me but I could see over here. But the great thing is that you don?t have to worry about standing people be in your way cause you look over them. I was probably around row 30 maybe, way off on the left of the stage (left if you are standing on the stage) We could hardly see them when they were on the catwalk and in the middle thingy, especially cause there was this light on the middle thingy that was right in our eyes so it blinded us. We could see the big screen and had a little one right in front of us.

Sister..

Janie was ABSOLUTY WONDERFUL to me!! I asked for 2 glow sticks, tour book, 2 cotton candy. I couldn?t go myelse cause ya got HIKE, I mean HIKE like 4 flights of stairs to get to the second deck where the shopping stuff was. Like 45 minutes later she came back with the book and the glow sticks. Whole time she was gone the cotton candy peeps walked my pizza you name it. But J had most the $$ and I knew she was getting it. Well then I saw they had this light up thingy(you see when you go) so I made her hunt one down. Then she finally said, well I want cotton candy too (I am freak of this stuff) so she hiked the stairs again and found some!

sorry this is getting long, more details of me then the show show, but we can?t give all away, gotta have some unknown stuff

Opening Acts..

Not So Boy Band, Joey?s dad band, was pretty funny. Kinda reminded me of 2gether, I was kinda busy watching for Janie and/or Silver. Eden?s Crush was pretty good. Donte (sp) Thomas was boring. Samantha Mumba was really good; I like some of her songs.

The autograph..

Halfway through the opening acts the Not So Boy Band came out and signed some pics and such. The person who was with the girl in front of me went and asked if they could come over and say but they said they couldn?t do to the crowds but signed a pic and gave it to her. I was like oh well, I mean I kinda laugh when people are all giddy about it but I thought it would cool to have but oh well. Then Janie was like, "What me to go get one for you?" I was like yeah. I didn?t know they had pics so I gave her my tix stub and Joey?s dad signed it. J said they gave you a pic and you go from guy to guy to sign but we just wanted Joey?s dads. So that was cool *another thing for cool sister night*

I finally got here!!! The Boys..

Ahhh they were so cool! First off, they had a bad hacky night cause them boys took FOREVER to get out. I was like oh look J they are gonna pop up there..ok, well no I lied they will show up over there.., lol, you will see what I mean. During the first part they shot of green laser beam type thingys and it was funny cause I wanted to see how high they went and when I looked up there was a airplane flying over (not on purposes of course) and it looked like they were shooting the plane. The first song (and kinda through the second) they had all these different color lights going and it was just amazing all the colors and how cool they all looked together, it was beautiful. My fav part of the whole thing was the kinda remixed This I Promise You. At the end they went accapella (sp) and harmonizing and such, it gave my shivers it was so incredible (that my Nsync boys I know and love man) and might I just add that JC as *NICE* arms *silly grin* I went teeny when he was on the jumbo tron and was like flexing, ack! I also loved the video clip thingy of JC on his cell phone trying to talk with his girl but the guys keep calling and interrupting and he gets all ticked, he looked so cute, I don?t wanna say all that happened cause you will see. I also enjoyed after Justin sang gone, and almost rated the concert X! Chris came out with this HUGE boxing glove thing on and starts whacking Justin over the head with it saying something like "Stop all the sad song, you are making us depressed" (something like that, maybe Silver can say if that happened or not, hard to understand sometimes) I was encouraging him "Hit him again! Hit him again!!" IGBM was cute, the dancing doggy. Justin on his go cart was so cute, and they bouncing ball thingys we had when we were little. One part I didn?t like was when they sang some songs from the middle(you will see) cause you couldn?t see it very well from out side and it wasn?t on the screen too much, plus there was a light shining in our face. Were the girl dancers really necessary? At least they were only there for a few songs. Game Over was interesting, lol. The lead in to the song was very interesting, Janie and I were laughing asking if they were like gonna be in hell or something, cause the "bad dude" was evil looking man!!!! I couldn?t figure out what the heck he was doing and why he was there, and then it hit me that it was Game Over, lol, then it made sense. The whole video game thing was pretty cool. I really likes The Two Of Us (think that what it was) it is like a ballad but the chorus was fast, it sounded cool (and now I find out it has a cuss word in it, why oh why must they do that? Lol) Janie thought some of the songs were only clips instead of the whole song. Well, not the whole concert, but the part that they sang from the middle. I also pictured that there was like 3 cat walks but there was just one, it was pretty cool, if you were close to it. They did a lot of stuff there but my side could hardly see them. My side one the chanting thing, what did I say oh yes "Give of us some of that dirty pop" what did you yell Silver? I can?t remember the other one something like "we wanna rock" or "we wanna see you rock" something like that. I wanted to be on JC?s side. Justin said we won the first time and they other side won the second, but they didn?t he was being nice. We were the loudest!!!! It is definitely more fun when you know the words though. Since it is hard to understand words at concerts unless you know the words, at least I can?t, but maybe since I am deaf in one ear. That is why opening acts I dunno don?t thrill me cause I can?t understand. Well, that is all I can think up, and type, my hand is killing me (I have been doing this little at time since the day after concert.

All I have to say that Silver didn?t It was freakin CCOOLLDDD I was shivering soo bad!! It was awful. Only reason I had a sweatshirt was cause I brought one to cover my arms if I was in the sun before the concert.

Getting home..

It was so hard to even get out side cause all the walking peoples exit, the stairs, was before the exit for wheelchair people. Well, in a wheelchair you can dart in and out to move faster so you don?t make it far cause people walk in front of you (hit a few peeps, not our fault) it was a mess!!! Once we got to the backstage (the way we got in) there was no one to tell us where to go, so we ended up very far from where we wanted and Janie had to push me up this HUGE hill to get to Bart, the whole bridge was packed and not moving at all. We get up to the elevator part and realize it is on the other side of us (we on the left of the bridge, elevator on the right with lots of people in the middle)J freaks "we are never gonna get there" I said uh huh, watch, and I turned my chair towards the elevator and said "I need to get over there" and pushed over..then the elevator would not come up!!!! So there was like 5 of us waiting for this thing unable to get help cause the attended was down the stairs and the stairs were full of people trying to get on Bart so we had to wait for them to clear and some in the waiting group with us went and got help. Got out train but didn?t know where to transfer, so was asked and it turned out we would have missed our train if we didn?t ask. The we thought we had one more stop before transferring but we didn?t, so again I kinda had to walk/run/kinda in the chair to the other train.

Home..

Told ma everything I could remember and then couldn?t fall asleep, lol, too much excitement still, and feeling crappy. I still fell yucky and problem won?t be on tonight, just came to do this, sorry guys!!

Miss ya all?s and love ya?s!!
