================================================ Subject: NCR: American Pearl (kinda long) From: "Sara Blume" To: Date: Sat 7 Jul 2001 18:12:48 -0700 ================================================ ok...here is what happened today. it was the kewlest thing i have ever experienced. we left our house around 12 noon and it took us about 1 and 1/2 hours to get up to syracuse. we found the place no problem. when we parked and got over to the Dinosaur BBQ we realized it really is a biker place. but it was really kewl. it was all outside on a blocked off side street. and as soon as we walked in a little ways we say that Reg was standing a merch. table so we talked to him for a while and my brother bought some stuff and we just kinda chilled and listened to the other groups playing. the funniest thing was that there were these couple of girls who were hanging aroung Reg and talking to him thinking they were all kewl and everything. and it was so obvious that they had no clue who he really was and what kind of music that the band plays. granted i don't know all the lyrics to all the songs but i least i know who they are...but whatever. so we were chillin with reg for a while and then he left to go get ready and i think to get soething to eat with the rest of the guys. so we just watched the last guy perform. and then once he was done we moved right up to the stage and we had perfect spots...right in front of kevin. once the last "opener" was done they took all their stuff doen and we got to watch AP set up. that was kewl. and then they started to play it was amazing. i don't quite remember the set list. but it was so kewl. Stevie is so amazing. there were a couple of times when he would walk right to the end of the stage and he was right in front of me and my brother said that kevin spit on him a couple of times (lol). they played most of the songs on the album and they even played a new song "This World". that song is so kewl. and i remember they ended with amphetamine girl. the crowd totally loved it. and throughout theshow i kept looking down to the couple of girls that were talking to Reg at the beginning and they knew none of the words and after the show they didn't even come to talk to him. chris and i think that they didn't really like them after all. but we did. once the show was over a guy came over to chris and i am said that he had been watching him the whole time and asked him if he would like to come backstage and meet the guys and then he asked me if i was with him and i was like yeah. so chris, me and my dad all went backstage and talked to the guys. chris got a picture with Stevie and got him to sign some stuff and he also got a picture with Noah and Kevin and they signed some stuff. and then we were just kinda hanging so i decided to go to the merch. table and get some stuff. so i got a really kewl shirt and i bought the cd b/c i don't have my own copy yet and i got Reg to sign that and eventually the rest of the guys signed it too. and we also got the big poster things and we each got the guys to sign them too. and then we were just hanging out with the guys talking and stuff. they are just so kewl and down to earth. plus we got pictures with them...one of me and chris with the band and my dad even got a picture with the guys...it was so funny to see. but all in all it was such an awesome day and the guys remembered us from when we met at Darien Lake last summer. it is just to kewl to know that we know a band before they got big. and Noah said that once the new album is done and they are on the road again they are gonna make a stop here in binghamton which would be too kewl. I LOVE AMERICAN PEARL!!!! they are just so kewl. so that was my day. SARA :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
