I just happened to be on the Ticket master web page and I noticed that there was ONE ticket in the 100 level...FLOOR for ***HANSON*** I have never screamed so loud in MY LIFETIME!! And it was only my sister and I home, so I died cuz YET AGAIN I didn't have a credit card...I really gotta get one...:) Well, My doll face sister Shane held the ticket for me, while I road my BIKE to my little sisters soccer game in my PJ's to get my mom's credit card...I was in my PJ's cuz it was a school night and I had just had a shower and I was all ready for bed, anyway I got the credit card, and I looked like a BIG IDIOT while doing it..hehe! And I got the ticket 8TH ROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was so exciting, so then my friend Amanda who also LOVES Hanson, she loves little Zacy!!
Once I got my 8th row ticket I was so excited and everyday when I went to school I would tell my friends "9 days til the Hanson concert" "8 days till the Hanson concert" etc...Until it was the LAST day of school...THE HANSON CONCERT!!! I had been completely devestated and near suicide when I missed Hanson at Much Music but the concert made up for it. Amanda, Margot, Vic and Katey all came over after school...I OF COURSE was the one who was the MOST excited about it...anyway I had all my clothes laid out, I am sure you don't care what I was wearing and you're all thinking get onto the concert..so I will...
We got to the concert at about 5pm...and we were waiting there until 6:30 to get into the Molson Amphi Theatre...Katey, Vic and Margot had to wait in line cuz they had LAWN seats, but Amanda and I had 8TH ROW!! We bought Hanson merchandise and everything and then we got in, once we saw where our seats were and how close i was going to be to the GOD OF THE UNIVERSE I started to cry...Well they played Aerosmith music all through the time we were waiting for the concert to start and then ADMIRAL TWIN came on...they were really good, but I was of course waiting for MY GODS to come on the stage...after a long wait of like 1 hour and 15 minutes the opening notes to 'Gimmie Some Lovin' came on..I was almost the only one who knew it was a Hanson song because I had been to the concert in Montreal, anyway I started to scream hysterically and that caused everyone else to scream as well...the the black curtain DROPPED and there standing in front of me...only like 5 feet away were the LOVES OF MY LIFE.....Hanson...*sigh* Taylor was wearing a green dress shirt and blue jeans with a tighty white shirt underneath, and Doc's...Ike who was wearing a yellowy color jacket with a grey shirt underneath and black pants with thin white lines down them...and little Zacy at his drums who was wearing black pants with pockets all over then and a white shirt...THEY ALL LOOKED AMAZING AND I JUST ABOUT FAINTED!!!!
They started out with all sorts of jumpy songs,and BELIEVE ME..I WAS JUMPING!! hehe! :)
The HILIGHT of the concert was when Taylor...who was right in front of the stage TOOK OFF HIS GREEN SHIRT AND REVEALED HIS TIGHT WHITE SHIRT UNDERNEATH!! I wass on my chair and I fell off once he took off his shirt like that..WOAH! Well, I was promising myself I wouldn't cry but as soon as they started to sing I WAS CRYING HYSTERICALLY AND I DID NOT STOP THE WHOLE CONCERT!!!
When THE GOD (Tay) sang I WILL COME TO YOU, I like passed out, and when he pointed at the audiance, I DIED...cuz it seemed to me that he was pointing at me...then I just KNEW I had to MARRY HIM...hehe!
Well they changed the set to the 3 Car Garage set and sang some songs with Ike on his acoustic guitar and they moved Tay and Zac closer to the stage....and put a 3 Car Garage back drop on the stage, it was wicked!!! They sang songs like "Stories" and "Soldier" and other great ones..including "With You In Your Dreams" I balled my eyes out in that one, because it kinda looked like Tay had tears in his eyes...
THEN...Tay and Zac left the stage...GRRRRR...and Ike did a solo...that was Ok with me, cuz I LOVE Ike but I was kinda mad when Tay left...but once Ike started singing "More Than Anything" from the album Boomerang....everyone SAT DOWN...THE NERVE...But OF COURSE I WAS STILL ON MY CHAIR screaming "Isaac I LOVE YOU" He sounded amazingly gorgeous , and I loved him so much after that...Then TAY AND ZAC CAME BACK....WOOHOO!!
And they sang some more songs...I don't really remember I was in a state of SHOCK!!!!! Well, TAY TURND TO HIS BONGO DRUMS and everyone knew that MMMbop was up next, and that made everyone INCLUDING ME OF COURSE go NUTS....
We all thought it was the last song but they came back on stage and sang songs like "Look At You" and "Summertime Blues" my favorite part of the concert is when Tay came right down to where I was (2nd row BABY YEAH!!!) and he sang "There ain't no cure for the summertime clues yah" and we had to repeat after him and he stuck his microphone in my face!!! OH BABY!! Did he ever look HOT up close!!!
Well after that set of songs was done....the gorgeous blond boys that I adore left the stage, I thought it was over so I was crying screaming "COME BACK" and sure enough, they came back and sang the first verse of WEIRD A CAPELLA...I was on my chair and Zac threw his water on me...I got it all over my shirt...It was the BEST concert in the WORLD......I had so much fun...And I will NEVR forget it...
