PUHLEASE... Can I win this ONE CONTEST!!!!

Looking back...

I can say now, looking back, that I enjoyed Brisbane the most. As a city, it is quite compact and easy to maneuver ..At night, the lights on the water are beautiful.. the bridge was pretty and the people were nice..
While I was there... UGH. From memory... I got on the plane to Brisbane and sat next to a weasley looking man who did not say one word to me. He reminded me of an insurance salesmen from 1970's... (sigh) I got off the plane and got my car.. The dude behind the counter thought it was a huge deal he upgraded me to a compact instead of a sub-compact. To be honest, I prefer the baby cars because they are so easy to drive in unfamiliar places.. BUT I took the upgrade... Upon exiting the airport doors, my face melted off.. literally.. I tried to scoop it off the pavement, but it was a lost cause.. I drove quickly to my hotel because the first show was only hours away and I had to try and fix the hot mess that was my face.. The hotel was nice enough, but of course I was on the 3rd floor of an elevatorless hotel.. (the horror) went to the venue and found a parking lot semi-close. I walked up a hill and found the entry gate... OMG i was the FIRST person.. This has never ever ever happened!!!! (ok there were like 4 kids there, but they were in the under 18 line.. so they don't count) As I was standing there, with 2 hours before the gate opened, I saw that in order to get to the stage you had to go up a mountain. This did not bode well with me. I found out there was another gate with a more Meghan friendly enterance. There were a few people ahead of me, but I thought I would do better running down to the stage then having to treck up a hill.. They finally let us in and I ran my boootie to the stage.. met 2 NICE girls.. (can't remember their names) they were 15.. sigh... TO BE CONTINUED

A weekend in Australia IS a stupid idea...

I started a lil diary during trip 2, but the trip was over so quickly.. I lost track of time and consciousness to be able to properly account for the trip. Here is my official journal.. written at the Sydney airport on Friday, November 12th .. waiting for my plane to Brisbane. I shall tell you the rest of the story .. after.. from memory..

Australia part deux:

Excited about my adventorous nature. Drove to SFO leisurely (good, too- because I got off on the wrong exit and ended up in downtown San Bruno..ugh) Got to the airport and it was SO COLD dare I say NIPPY.. Thought I should have dressed warmer... (grrr) Happily got in line telling the fella I had no bags to check ... he took one look at my bag and insisted on weighing it. DAMN DAMN. it was twice as heavy as allowed for a carry on. FINE! check it..... Went to a fine lil grill place and had some dinner and wine... I was livin large... (sigh) Traded the green stuff in for some ridiculous monopoly lookin money... Terrible exchange rate, but what can you do? It sucks when you only get .90 AUS for a US dollar.. and a friggen diet coke is 3.00AUS.
Went through security surprisingly quickly. I strategically picked the line without the nude x-ray. I feel like an expert at this whole world traveler thing.. I got on the plane SUPER early .. and was bummed when I found out it was a full flight. Sat next to two boys and their pa. The "boy" in front of me was a dick . He sat hard and leaned back really far the whole time... even during the meal service. Didn't sleep great, but well enough. Not happy when the pilot said, "It's a beautiful day in Sydney..." In Meghan-land that translates to sweaty boobs and pits.. It was VERY hot and muggy when I exited the plane. Made a pit stop in the ladies loo and got naked in the stall.. (what? they are spacious) I reapplied my makeup and felt a bit refreshed ..THAT is, until I put my clothes on.. They do NOT believe in AC in the Sydney airport...Had a delish coffee from Gloria Jean's coffee hut.. (haven't seen a starbucks :( ) Just realized the reason for my dewey skin is that I appear to be in some green house, atrium like room in the airport.. I quickly moved and continued to wait for my plane to Brisbane.....

ass officially kicked...

Honestly, if trip 1 was like trip 2 I wouldn't have gone the second time.. I do heart Australia.. But Brisbane was HOT and muggy and I was beat.. who knew a weekend in Australia was a stupid idea. My makeup melted off my face.. and my normally sleek straight hair was a hot mess!! I did find Target and found it interesting, but they don't believe in air conditioning so it was horribly uncomfortable. Met some really kewl peeps.. From a set of 15 year olds that I really got along with ... to a hippy chick who was all touchy feely .... and others who adopted me into their freaky cliques. The scary powderfinger mafia was there... freaks of nature, I tell you. I successfully left all 6 shows after JET and didn't hear any powderfinger noise.. (Yeah me!!!) I did keep a wee journal and shall post my thoughts shortly.. (sigh)

Be honest... You would do the SAME thing!

Look at those lips! SIGH. A few nights ago, I couldn't sleep after reading a horrible news story. Apparently, after the Sunset tour in Australia, Jet would most likely be hibernating for a while. I freaked out. They had shows coming up, I had to see them. I couldn't miss my opportunity. So, um.. well.. I am on my way to Brisbane, mate. Cheers

Diary of an AUstralian Jaunt 10-17-10

5am on a Sunday... BOO. Melbourne isn't even awake yet. Turned on the tube and got ready to go. Packed one bag 5 kilos too much and ended up having to pay a fee.. Stood in the wrong line LITERALLY 5 times before I finally got checked in to my flight. In Sydney, Customs was a PISSER. I forgot you can't bring Diet Coke through the line and the customs dick told me it would have been easier if I had taken it out before I got there. DUH.. I forgot it was in my bag Mr Arsehole. SO.. got through THAT and spent a little mula at the airport shops.... Finally got on plane and what a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG flight.. I couldn't find the remote for my TV.. it was in the other arm of my chair. I watched Curb Your Enthusiasm and Modern Family.. Flight flew by... I got off in HELL.. er LA.. NIGHTMARE of customs.. Line went on for literally days.. The mo fo's confiscated my boomerrang and tested my low carb sugar for bomb components. Finally... Finally got home and the best end of the trip was little Jilly running up to me and giving me the best hug ever...... GOOD TO BE HOME.

Got a wee bit 'o' mud on my boots

Can you see the cutie with her yellow sign?

Left Bendigo EARLY.... On the road to Melbourne. Kind of a waste as my hotel in Melbourne was not ready when I arrived (still a fabbbbb room). Melbourne is filled with a CRUSH of people. UGH. I spent the time waiting for my hotel in a local mall. Sad to see little puppies in the window of a pet store. Wasn't aware that ANYone still did that.. Got back to the hotel with an hour to get ready.. freashened up the coif and the face... left for Ballarat a LITTLE nervous as I did not have any idea where the show was in Ballarat. (Last minute show .. no time to prepare) Luckily, stopped at a gas station and this QT knew where I needed to go (BTW, you pump and then pay in AUS.. very trusting.. ) Got to the FIELD and found.. (surprise) MUD..MUD..MUD! Had a few beverages and was SO happy. Jet ROCKED the house. Held up my lil yellow sign.. got a sexy nod from Nic and Chris's drum stick.... Cheers, Mate..

Bendigo. Day 2. Went shopping early, after a fabulous breakfast. Went downtown and walked around. Found another Golden Shred Doll... ;) Returned back to the hotel.. showered and dressed. Got to the venue at 3:45. Thought that would be early enough. NOT. About 20 people in Q. It was bitterly cold and rainey. Met 2 freaks.. FREAKS. Knarly teethed looking chicks. They did help me jump the Q, so I guess i heart freaks!! Found out their is a Powderfinger Mafia and my friend from Canberra, Deb, is the don. Found out that she posted on some website that she found a "loser" to unload her extra ticket to. BITCH. Saw her and ignored the hideous cow. Got my drink on and LOVED the show. Nic is pretty darn HAWT. I think I saw Pia (Nic's fiance') .. :(

Diary of an Australian jaunt 10-14-10

Drove and drove and drove ALL morning. Took detours through many smaller cities along the highway... went to a few shops.. Dead kangaroo count is at 5. Arrived in Bendigo and LOVE the hotel. No concert tonight, so I was able to relax. (sigh) Drove to the venue for tomorrow's show to plan route. Looked around the city, a bit.. Like it a loooooot. Plan to have brekki in suite in the AM. Went to the laundryland to wash .. my staple clothes were muddy and rain drenched... Ordered a pizza and watched a movie.. AHHH Life in Bendigo.

These sheepies are giving me the stink eye

I paid attention to these signs

FAB room

Oh MY MY! What a frenzied day. Woke up at 6am knowing I had to run to the airport to exchange money. UGH. It was raining like crazy! Checked out and hit the road to Albury. LOOOOOOONG rainy trip. Loads and loads of lamb-ies and sheep-ies in fields of purple flowers.. such a site. saw ANOTHER poor little dead kangaroo. Stopped at a local wool factory and bought some toasty warm socks. And after what seemed life forever, arrived in Albury. Love, Love the hotel. Cutie Patootie behind the counter. Ran up to the room and redid my face and hauled ass to concert. Got in line and am almost positive someone asked who's mother I was. I wanted to beat some little Aussie ass... Jason and his hideous dwarf wife let me get in front of them for Jet. WOO HOO.. Rockin show. Kinda freaked out that I didn't see Deb.. So, I ebay'd a ticket for Saturday's show. Having heaps of trouble understanding what these people are saying. Feeling like I am ESL. Man at gas station said I was a site based on his usual customers.. I ****think**** it was a complement.. WHO KNOWS.

View of Canberra's main drag ..

War memorial - for Iraq

War memorial - for Sailors

War memorial - the Wall

War memorial

Hungry Jacks... (Jack ate the King, apparently)

Chris

Sea of people under tent in field (sigh)

Oh Canberra. Apparently, I pronounce it incorrectly. I pronounce quite a few things wrong. Who knew? Woke up at 6am and got a jump on the day. Went sightseeing in the AM. Went to the Australian Intelligence agency and parliament. Looked SUPER important. I guess maybe the King or the President .. or the CEO of Australia does his business there. It is VERY fortified. The building that is... Went to the Australian War memorial. Sad to see all the names.. Fell down stairs when I was trying to look cute .ugh. Went to Westfields and had Sushi. Had dinner at Happy Jacks. The dude in the drivethru kept calling me sweet. That is what I expected of all the people of Australia.. An overwhelming amount of sugar.. NOT. Just an occasional Happy Jack employee. :( Considering Ali Baba's Drive thru for tomorrows dinner. hahahahah Came "home" showered and got ready. Drove to show extra early and was sad to see a super long line. Finally got into the venue and talked my yank ass to the mo fo front. GO MEGHAN! Excited that new friend, Deb, has an extra ticket to Saturday's sold out show. Who needs to spend the day in Melbourne?!?!? Mental note.. most Australian women are hideous... Left after JET.. people surprised. GOOD SHOW.

PS Saw first kangaroo.. but it was smashed on side of road... :( also, shows WAY different here.. In USA small clubs, here 10,000 peeps in a field.. booooo

Tasman Sea

Yawn. Yawn. It is only 5pm local time, but my brain thinks its 12 am yesterday. How did today go? So far, so good. Got off the plane into a sea of people. Who knew Sydney on a Monday would be SOOO busy... And so many different steps to get into the friggen country. First immigration.. "what is the purpose of your visit?" Then I had to wait for what seemed like an eternity for my bags.. Then the real test,they scan your bags. I had almonds in my bag and fearing that I would be on the next "Locked up Abroad", I mentioned them to the officer.. I had to give them up.. Oh well.. God forbid I have a snack! Did I mention I was sweating up a storm? I only had the same 3 layers as before on.. (sigh) On to the car rental place.... Of course it was on the opposite side of the airport and it was the only place with a huge line.. Did I mention the man in front of me in line was ESL and he had to question everything..?? ugh. The chick behind the counter became my bestey when I told her the purpose of my trip. "REALLY?" the word dedication keeps coming up. ... Finally got to my wee car --- through the pouring rain :( VERY nervous about the driving .. GULP> Ironically found a McDonalds straight away. Confused the crap out of the dude in the drive through. They apparently dont have a sugar free ice coffee down under.. BOO.. Thankfully, I paid extra for the GPS .. So, I could kinda explore. Found Bondhi Beach which looks over Sydney harbour. very very very windy. Finally got on to the M5 (freeway) to Canberra. Quite a drive. Lots of Kangaroo crossings and sheep.. (Sigh.. Meggie and the Thorn Birds) Drove 110 kph.. very weird.. Drove into Canberra .. wonderful hotel.. Damn bed is a bean bag and the toilet has a #1 button and a #2 button. hahahahah Didn't wake from my 6pm nap until morning.. :)

From plane

I am Fabulous. On plane. OK yes, I am literally the last row on the plane, but no one is sitting next to me.. JOY!!! The stewardess made me comfy .. I am right by the lavatory. Life is GOOD. Must be a good sign, (sigh) its 11pm and in an hour or so we are going to have dinner.. WTF? Oh well, I will be enjoying the salmon with mashed potatos and I believe tiramisu for desert. Mental note, thank god for close proximity to crapper. HERE WE GO! plane is moving. Loving Quantus. But have no idea what these people are saying over the intercom. Something about escape routes.. Oh my goodness, I am right by the slide.. yippee.. BTW thank goodness I submitted my marketing paper due on Sunday early. There is NO room for my huge laptop. Eventhough there is no one next to me, the seat in front of me is ridiculously close. I had a wild idea that international flights would come with a wee bit more room. I believe Southwest has more friggen room. I guess taking this big ass bus to Australia costs a few sheckles.. Gotta cram the thing with people. I walked past the first class, the business class, the elite economy (sigh) Oh well,, whatever. ... .. ... .. (elapsed time) .. ... ... 3 hours outside of Sydney. dinner was delish. Yummy.. watched modern family and fell asleep. bad night. bumpy over the date line. hahahahah Cannot handle all these freaks exercising by my exit door. This one dude is doing a full radu workout. Fine.. I get it.... Sitting 14 hours is a bit tough .. but move on. JEESH. I went in t o the potty with 3 hours left on the flight to put my contcts in and apply some eyeliner.. no more then 8 minutes later, there was a friggen line..BOO.. and people were glaring.. 1 time to the damn toilet.. elapsed time...2 hrs from Sydney (Sigh) you would think we went east..this flight is taking so damn long... but in actuality we went pretty direct over Hawaii .. I guess the world is pretty big, eh? the coolest thing on theplane is the flight tracker.. you can see where you are and how much longer to get to where you are going.... (see photo)

Diary of an Australian jaunt 10-09-10

At the airport.. about 9pm.. SHEW .. what an interesting trip so far. I went through the metal detectors that see you naked. It was weird. I felt strangely violated, but in a fun way. I am here (wait for it) 2 hours before the boarding time.. SURPRISE!! Can you imagine I would be early? Oh well.. I was able to switch to an aisle seat -- but I am in the back of the plane.. OH NO! Does that mean something signifigant?!?!? If we explode, am I going to be any less on fire? Whatever?!?!? Trying to take every minute... breathe and enjoy... NO RUSHING!!! I am finally cooling down, I only wore 3 layers... No, Not the trench or the contraption.. just toasty..want to be prepared for everything... on my tombstone it shall say she was ready for everything!

Blame New Jersey Shore, bitches!

A few things have kept us apart, dear reader. I am not trying to be lazy, but it is hard to stay in touch with you when Snookie is DTF, you know? I am beyond excited that in less than 2 weeks, I will be Australia bound. The lovely boys of JET refuse to come to Cali, so this bitch is gonna go to them. Stay tuned .. I will prolly have a few stories to share.. you know about the hot Aussie boys and the whole cheeky experience..

kicking my ass...

Three things

Nic's OLD digs

1. I thought Nic's Australian pad would have been WAY more swanky. As of MY BIRTHDAY (04-24) it will be sold to someone else and Nic will be purchasing a home in Italy.. which leads me to ....................
2. Can someone lend me $750,000? or whatever Australia uses for cash these days?
3. I promise to spill about the last trip.. I just have been up tp HERE with classes...

love you.

BEST....

trip EVER!
Hated the cities of Portland and Seattle ... but LOVED the shows..
Could take or leave Vegas... too many fake BOOOOOOs on skinny chicks..
I will share all the details soon lovers.. AND the pics.. THE PICS! and the SWAG!
did I mention the drumstick and the drum itself.... :)

I don't know anymore.. What I need and what for.. All I know is there must be something more...

New Seventeen Vid.. WOO HOO

My lil birdie came through ....

Leg 1

What is the deal? No California dates for Leg 1 of the 2010 world domination tour?
UGH. FINE.. do it your way....

Seattle , Portland, Vegas .... GET READY FOR MEGGIE!

(DO YOU THINK UTAH CAN HANDLE ME?)

NBC sucks, yet again.....

So, I was promised JET at the 12:05-130 AM Olympic coverage.. Hmm.. As a dedicated JET fan, I kept my ass up and watched these lame ass ice skaters go in circles ..over and over.. and NO JET! BOOOOOOOOO NBC.. Thankfully, a sweet girl in Canada took a wee vid of the opening song.. and I would like to share with you now... Sounds a little muffled, but... its snowing.. and you can see Nic's breath in the air.. brrrrr.. (I can keep you warm, lovey) :)

I heart Jet, STILL!

Yipee!

I AM a Grown Ass Woman. Really!

sweaty girl

I feel the need to revisit an old topic.. I am a grown ass woman who literally falls apart in the presence of one specific MAN. That man is Mr Nic Cester. I tell you this, dear reader, because a week ago I had the pleasure of not only attending a ROCKING JET show in LA, but I had the thrill of meeting the entire band.
I wish that I had taped the encounter, because in all honesty, it is a euphoric blur. I stood before the band with 5 other fans while they did sound check. They were funny and engaging...Because the other band (BOO PAPA ROACH) ran late with their sound check, we were only able to hear a few songs. As soon as they completed the SC, we were ushered upstairs to the VIP area. The band came out .. and this is where things get fuzzy. I do remember asking Nic to sign my boob, which he did.. wink wink.. and I remember sitting next to him and professing my love while I rubbed his leg.... but other then that..I couldn't really be sure.. I do know it was fun.. and a night to remember. (hahahaha)

The good news, is that Chris said they would be returning to Cali in March.... I am already planning my road trip.. and thinking of other things for Nic to sign.. ;)

P.S. The show was AMAZING. They did not disappoint.. I heart JET

Hi, remember me?

I went to a David Sedaris reading.. and before the show started he was signing his book in the lobby.. So, I got in line.. when it was my turn.. I said, David I adore you.. and he said.. "PLEASE .. you are going to give me a BIG head.. I wont be able to get on the plane tomorrow when I have to go first class to Hawaii .. my head simply wont fit in the plane..

I said, hmm.. Do you need a lady friend? and he said ARE YOU A HO? and i said pardon me? and he said ARE YOU A HO? and i said, well I can be what ever you want me to be.. chuckle chuckle.. and then i said, seriously.. I want to be YOU when I grow up.. and he looked at me square in the face .. and he said how OLD are you? and i said .. blah blah blah.. and he said, ah blah blah blah blah.. Nice to meet you NEXT!

I heart david.. tee hee

MY Issues

What are they you ask? Well.. Do you have a day or two?? HA HA .. I kid.. I kids.. The reason that I have not been blogging, dear reader, is that I am a tard.. I hooked up this lil journal type site.. with my ramblings, to the official Jet web site. Whenever I would post, it would be RSS'd to the Jet site. I felt so much pressure. Like I had to be profound or something. UGH. I can't be that like all the time.. So, I removed the feed and feel SOOO much more relaxed and at ease..

in CASE you missed it

(go to niccester.com for video limk)

ugh, 1am? Some of us fans have jobs and can't stay up past 10pm! Jeesh

Jet - MTV Shows

Feel better, my friend.

Aussie Rocker Nic Cester from JET collapsed tonight on stage at Q The Music Club Live At Hard Rock Café as part of the worldwide promotional tour for the band's upcoming CD, SHAKA ROCK. The singer had been unwell all day but insisted on coming to the gig and not letting fans down. JET took to the stage at 8pm GMT and performed "Rip It Up" and She's A Genius" before Nic
passed out. Nic got up on his feet and jokingly told the audience he had Swine Flu before collapsing for a second time. Nic was walked off stage by the band's tour management leaving Cam, Chris
And Mark to soldier on to perform 3 more songs - "Holiday," "Beat On Repeat"
And "Get What You Need."
Nic was rushed to University College Hospital in Euston, London, UK in an ambulance and is being treated for symptoms of gastroenteritis, acute vomiting and dehydration. The singer will be held overnight for monitoring.

Anaheim.. sweet Anaheim.

How could I forget the last show of my trip?
Because the last show was a mere 45 minutes away (LA to Anaheim) I was able to take my time getting there and had a easy Friday morning....
I happen to drive around the Hollywood "mounds" .. Not really the hills, but nice houses just the same. Spied a few celebrity houses right off Sunset.. (No worries, mate.. your secret is safe with me.. Although, may I suggest another color other then that burnt red? kinda harsh) Anywho, made it to Anaheim in time to do a little shopping for the kiddies (mad props to lil Bren and Jiji .. next trip your coming!!!) After that .. stopped for lunch.. I found my hotel .. I was pleasantly surprised. Pretty nice for a Motel6,eh?


Took a hot bath (DEJA VU!) and got ready.. Hot purple shirt and Jeans.. cute sandal heals that ended up doing a number on my poor feeties.. (grrr) I headed to down town Disney a lil early to meet Tania and Kaia for a pre-concert drink. Love my girls.. and loved the opportunity to chat ..

We hung out a bit and then they met up with Bob. Bob just won GOLD at a softball game at the Firefighter Olympics.. YEAH BOB! HAHAH. They left and I met my "friends" Alex and MeShell .. waited in line a bit.. and finally we were let in .. Yeah me.. FRONT OF THE STAGE, again.. we drank.. and danced ... and sang.. and jumped around.. and danced..and drank.. and I loved every second!!!!! Thankfully, I bonded with a HOB photographer and at the end of the show he came through.. ;) (Thanks camera man!!) YEAH SET LIST!

After the show, I waited a few.. but was sad to see that they were closing down the club. No meet and greet with the boys! :( my boob would go home naked?!?!?!? I was so sad. I am sad. I sadly dragged my ass back to the hotel.. and when I got to my room saw the door was open!! Not like open, open.. but not shut. OMG.. (See Tania, I am working it into my daily convo's) Apparently, because the air was left on, when I left, the door didn't close.. I carefully walked in all Magnum PI like, and thankfully nothing was disturbed and no one was in the room. I think because I left the TV on kinda loud, peeps thought someone was in there.. (SHEW) (Jet luck is on my side, babies!) ANyway.. Jet.. (heavy sigh) I LOVE their new stuff.. and want them to come back SO bad. I am already starting my Jet tour fund for the next CALI leg. Let me know if you want my paypal account so you can donate.. Touring AIN'T cheap!!! xoxoxoxoxoxxo

P.S. Mr Nic Cester, you will sign my damn boob... I am determined to make my dream come true.. :)

P.P.S. Sorry about no pics from Anaheim show.. They frisk you outside with metal detectors.. NO CAMERA's. ugh.. whatever

I blinked......

and my Jet excursion is over. I sit here and think where I was a week ago today... A week ago today, I was in LA. The city of angels. (sigh)

The night before I got to LA, I was up LATE at the Vegas show.. but I woke super early (7am wake up call) to get on the road. I was genuinely excited to see Jet again. The new songs were better then I imagined and I wanted MORE.. MORE.. MORE.. When I checked out, I could of sworn the dude next to me was settling up the band's bill. He just seemed to be a part of the whole entourage. (leather jacket.. flip flops.. dirty rock star look) As I was walking away, they were talking about the charges at the "pool".. (Silly Cam was spying on the pretty girls I bet) So, I hit the road... And I was making GOOD time. I was secretly hoping to drive along side the Jet tour bus.. but wasn't so lucky. :( I got to LA at about 2.. checked in to my AWESOME room. (So much better then the LAST Jet trip...I discovered that the star rating IS something to pay attention to.. HAHAHA)
I got all comfy in my room.. and was a lil freaked out about all the mirrors.. (hello, Garden state? I was sure that the bell boys were spying on me and I was scared to get nake') I finally did.. get NAKE' and got in to the tub.. took a nice HOT bath and commenced the gettin' ready routine. I got all rock star'd out.. I wore a white shirt... Jeans and black wedges. I thought I looked super cute. I was hot as all get out because the city was also going through a damn heat wave.. ugh..
I got to the club .. and parked across the street.. (DAMN. this would mean I would have to cross Sunset.. SCARY!)I crossed.. and only once was nearly hit by a speeding car.. (shew) When I got to the line, My OLD friends (wink wink) Meshell and Alex were there.. YEAH .. JET FREAKS.. Just like me! We made chit chat and settled into the line.. (sigh) There I was in line.. at the Key Club.. patiently waiting for the doors to open.. I was so excited when they finally did.. I got my standard Corona.. and made a bee line for the stage. I am so retarded, the club was REALLY dark and I was so determined to get in the front.. I missed two large steps and nearly came crashing on to my face. (I am such an idiot)I did this really goofy running man impression.. hahaha... made it look planned and not happy school bus.. boy she needs a helmet type deal...I did manager to score "MY" spot.. and MiShell and Alex were right next to me.. I was very happy (buzzed)

Loved the opening band, the paper tongues.. (I have their song in my head this second.. and I am starting to go crazy!!UGH) But they were good and I think I might actually get their album, too.. BUT .. Jet came on.. and my friend Christine (AKA Christmas) came up behind me.. ANOTHER Jet freak.. YEAH! We rocked out.. and she snagged me Nic's guitar pic..

After the show, I hung out for a bit wanting to (yet again) have Nic sign my nummy boob.. But my feeties were hurting and I figured I had another night.So, me and my boob went home.. (hahaha back to the hotel) and ZONKED OUT.

P.S. Did you see the "No Stage Diving" sign? DAMN.. I was SO ready for it,too!

P.P.S. Cam and the boys did an interview with SPIN last Saturday .. and they said the LA show was by far one of the best shows they have done. :) Did I mention I was there.. front row center.. ahem.. But it can't be ALL me.. I mean Jet did pretty good, too. ;)

I was LITERALLY...

right next to this chick.. I was RIGHT in front of Nic.. I betcha if you watch real close you can see my crazy BIG ass head bopping up and down....
I shall share the story of my LA trip (hopefully tomorrow..) xoxox

seventeen

Vegas BABY..

Funny how everything works out for the best.. I was originally a little annoyed that the 1st show was at 11pm... Why would a show start so late? What was I going to do with so much free time? Turns out it worked out perfectly. It took for EVER to get Vegas... miles and miles of desert... and the weather was UNBELIEVABLY hot (107!!!) ...

I got to Vegas at 6pm and with the roads all being worked on and with the millions of people aimlessly walking about...It took me an hour to get to my hotel.... grrrrr. (the hotel is literally a mile from the exit)

As I pulled into the HR driveway, I quickly decided that the valet was the way to go... I dragged my wheel-less suitcase, that must have weighed a million pounds, to the registration desk. My irritated attitude quickly changed when the chick behind the counter gave me a free $400 suite upgrade.. YEAH ME! (After seeing Cam's video blog, I think I might have scored a sweeter suite then him!!!)

The bar

The view

The bedroom

The living room

When I finally got into my room, I crashed into the most amazing bubble bath.. (I am such a loser because I turned on the jets without the tub being completely full and I shot water ALL OVER the place.. you can take the girl out of the trailer, but.. )
HAHAHA.. SO, I was able to relax......... I had a cocktail and got all gussied up ... At about 10pm, I finally headed to the show. Luckily it was at WASTED SPACE which is located INSIDE the Hard Rock. I didn't have to face the 95 degree weather..... (at 11pm!!! UGH)
I went to the club and the bouncer was total flirts ville with me.. I MUST be looking cute.. He even asked to see my ID.. to make sure I was legal.. hahahahaha.. I went in.. got me a Corona and settled in right under Nic's mic stand.. (a favorite place of mine).. Thankfully, there was no opening band and Jet just came out .. They ROCKED the house...




Right before they played their encore, I grabbed Nic's sweat towel right from his hands.. (YES I DID SLEEP WITH IT...and, yes.. I AM 14 YEARS OLD ) I also was able to get Cam's guitar pick to add to the collection. (yeah me)

After the show, the band was in a stairwell .. and I snuck over and got my pic with Chris. He was a little annoyed with me because I couldn't' offer him a cig.. Sorry Mate.. hahaha..

(My head looks gynormous.. and I look crazy.. Just for the record, I don't NORMALLY look like that..
It was late.. I was drunk.. Chris was mad at me)

Nic was way way way way up the stairwell and I would have had to jump over a few roadies.. I figured I had plenty of time to have Nic sign my boob.. so. I decided to wait..

On to LA..
