I heard about the concert on the radio, a Seattle station called Star 101.5.
Every year they have a "listener appreciation concert" and the only way to get
in is to call in and win a contest, be the 101st caller. Well that is impossible,
for the zillions of times I've tried to do that I've never even gotten through
let alone be a certain caller number. So I called up my very good friend Shari
who works for the station, and she managed to get me two tickets, but could not
go with me. So I brought my other friend Mindy, and the two of us had a real
blast. It was in October 2000, at Seattle's Experience Music Project, right
below the space needle. The EMP is a music museum built by Paul Allen, (Bill
Gates's sidekick) in tribute to American Music. It's really cool, and they have
a small concert spot called Sky Church that is ideally acoustically built, and
has amazing jaw dropping lighting and sound. I was able to capture some of the
neato lighting in my pictures. There were only 220 people allowed in to see
Roxette, so I got to get really close to take these pictures. I got to meet
Roxette after the concert, and get their autograph on a poster and an 8x10
photograph. I was so excited to meet them! I thought about all the things I
wanted to say to them, all the songs of theirs I love. I was the fourth person
in line. I was in so much shock to be standing in front of them, all I could say
was "I'm your biggest fan!". I wanted to slap myself for saying such a dumb
thing, and forgetting to say all the other things I wanted to say. I was in
shock the whole rest of the night. I got to shake their hands!!! If I could
change one thing in my life by going back in time, I would say something more
intelligent than "I'm your biggest fan!" when I meet them!
