It seems like there are going to be a ton of boardies at 1 or both of these shows, we need something to let her know so many of us are there (any ideas?)!! :wheee!: Lets have a roll call: Amy & me, both shows (but not the package, boo).

Next!

Oy, not going on this package is making me sick...I feel like a bad fan. :cry: But the $ simply isn't there, at least we made 1 TP this tour. Perhaps some of my boardie friends will be kind enough to try to save a spot in the pit for the 2 of us a few rows back, come rush time. :D

I am really looking forward to seeing her 2 nights in a row, & seeing the end of a tour after I've seen the beginning. I hear they have a tendency to change. Plus the chance of hearing new songs is much higher!

I just posted a thread in the general discussion asking who would be at the Norman show. lol Whoops....should have checked here first. Anyway, I will be at the Norman show only and I'm bringing my partner with me. Couldn't do the travel package but I'm very excited. It's my first MLE show. I love the idea of trying to find a way for MLE to know that SO MANY on her board are coming out for this. It's going to be an amazing show and I'm super excited!

LOL nybabe....too funny!!! I'm glad to know you are gonna be at the OK shows. Wow, it seems like a big percentage of people on the board will be at one or both of the OK shows. That's pretty exciting! Did most of you get your tix thru the fan club or through the venue? I ended up getting mine thru the club....can't wait to see where I'll be sitting....although it's prolly row G due to senority....since I'm late in the game. lol I don't care as long as I'm there! :)

NyBabe....if I got first or second row, words would not be able to do justice to how fast my heart would be beating. lol I've never had front row to anything except church (lol), so THAT would be the coolest thing ever. Plus, my partner who is coming has NEVER been to a concert before!! lol I still can't believe that. Regardless, we will have good seats, but I'd love to see the look on his face if we got that close. I'd feel soooo cool. lmao Keep those fingers crossed for me. lol But, whoever gets those lucky seats has my most sincere congratulations!! I totally misunderstood you. Hate you aren't coming but you are getting to plenty of shows. I'm sure I'll get to meet ya at a show sometime in the future. To the Summer 2010 tour!!!! WOOHOO!!! :)
