The concert was MOST excellent!! But first things first.
It was SO great seeing PV and Pan again. RushfanFla, their friend Mitch. All people I had seen at PNC for R30 and it was a HAPPY reunion.
Mini was with us this time, which was a treat and boy has she grown!!!
I was happy and excited to finally meet MK and Mrs. MK. And what great people they are. I'm so grateful you took that ticket. It made everything that much better.
Here are a few photos. First of MK and me and "our" ticket. We look a little insane because it was 95 degrees and we were in the sun. The second is of me and my friend who came with me and became MK's "seat mate" after I got a single seat down close 6 rows in front of Geddy. Whoo hoo!
I have more pics of the group (PV, Pan and RFF, Mini, and a "group" shot of everyone including Mrs. MK) but I want their OK before I post them.
The concert ROCKED and the crowd was wonderful. I so enjoyed it and think everyone else did too.
One fun thing was I ended up sitting next to this guy named "Fritz" who was a friend of Alex's (didn't believe him at first). He was a really nice guy (although not really a fan but he and his group spent most of the concert waving to Alex and Alex nodding and smiling back). But we ended up having a BALL and he teased me relentlessly about Geddy.
In the end he disappeared during Neil's solo and came back and gave me this!
THANK you all for making the concert so special!!!
