New York trip Day 9- epilogue

Ok, so really we are home from back East and are now in Salt Lake. We had been going to get up and go to the venue pretty early and get in line. As it turns out we didn't and we didn't need to. We got meet and greet passes which meant we got to go to our own little line that got to go in early and meet the band, have our picture taken and then go right to the floor before the doors opened.

Tia filled you in pretty good on the actual concert. only I DID NOT do anything shifty with Jon. We were told that we weren't supposed to put our hands behind them or hug them or do anything creepy.. but it was habit I tell you. I stood next to him, he put his arm around me and I automatically put my arm around his waist. right after I did it I went.. oh shit, not supposed to do that.. but I had already done it so just left it there. We didn't get kicked out so no harm no foul right? I was proud that the girls made it through the signing that we did first. I thought Jazzy wasn't going to remember to breathe and Tia might have a heart attack but she even talked coherently to them instead of going all silent.

Then we were off to the floor. I was a bit worried about Jazzy because she is not very tall and the barriers were really tall. I was more worried when people kept trying to get to the front and hundreds of people were pushing her up against the steel. but she seemed fine. Of course then her and Tia both got bumped into the crowd and off the rail. Oh shit! what to do what to do. I thought about leaving the rail and looking for them but I could see them at times and so I hoped for the best and stayed on the rail to take pics. It was hairy up there right up until Panic were playing then everyone settled a bit and watched instead of pushing and shoving.

After it was over, we found each other and the girls were fine. Tia had stuck to Jazzy in the crowd and she was so small that others were trying to look out for her too. Then we did our ritual go to Denny's for a very late dinner then back to the room.
