Step Five: Don't You Know That The Time Has Arrived?
Saturday, November 15, 2008
Step Five: Don't you know that the time has arrived? That sums up my evening perfectly. The time has arrived for my tour to be over. :( Shanna was able to score a pair of M&G passes for the Denver show. Her cousin Tasha flew into town from DC for the concert, so they had to be to the venue by 4p for checkin. She thought maybe she could sneak me in if I just came along with her -- it didn't work, but it was worth a try. While they went in, I went & waiting in the car (for about 90 minutes or so).
Here's me killing time in the car while they're meeting the guys:
Our tickets were in the 4th & 5th rows. Thanks again to Ben at MIX 100 for them (he's not even there anymore ... but then again, neither is Shanna). Here's the 4 of us waiting for the concert to begin.
The show was nothing short of amazing. It was nice to end the tour up close w/the guys. It really is amazing getting to see the show from that close up. You can see them giggle at each other and all those little things that you'd never even know were going on if you had a *normal* seat. I snuck my video camera in, so I was able to get some decent pics from the show. I really need to find myself a camera that takes great "concert" pics. I saw tons of girls at the show taking millions of pics that looked WAY better than mine. But, if you can get just a few good ones by taking 150, then I'll do it.

Last Stop
Friday, November 14, 2008
It's Friday - aka the last stop of my NKOTB Tour.
The drive from Omaha to Denver was long. Really long. I know it's about the same distance as going from Cannon Falls to St Louis, but this felt much longer.
We left Omaha around 9:30 or so. Off to Lincoln we went! We stopped in to see my fav Lincoln lady, Ami Graham, at the stations. Connie, my dad's cousin who lives in Lincoln, joined us at the stations for a quick tour as well. She's a fan of KLIN. :) Before we left, Ami gave me a Froggy t-shirt!
What's better than a New Kids Road Trip + meeting all your fav station people? Going on a New Kids Road Trip, meeting all your fav station people, AND having lunch at Carlos O'Kellys.
We're going to spend today being tourists in the Denver area. I think we're going to try & make it over to the Coors Brewery to do that tour. Also, we're going to head over to Boulder to stop in to see Luke at his restaurant (I went to high school w/him).
Tonight's the last show of my trip. Shanna's got our tickets, so I'm not sure how things will work tonight since she's not at the stations any more. I'm sure we'll get it figured out this afternoon. Her cousin Tasha flew to town for the show too!
P.S. We woke up to snow this morning
