Yeah, I'm one of those completely insane Jonas brothers fans' that woke up at four in the morning to get down to Detroit at 5 am, for tickets.
here's the story. ---
- 4 am - woke up/got dressed, in layers.
- 4 30 am - woke dad up/had breakfast.
- 5 am - left the house.
- 5 30ish am - got to the Fox Theatre.
around 5:40 - 6 something in the morning I started meeting people, and singing Jonas tunes. At around 7, Fox 2 News Detroit came down to the venue. Me and a group of around fifty people circled the car and started singing more Jonas music. At 7:20 we go on TV. pretty cool, huh?! :)
Then, i got in line for tickets. There it was the raffle style, where you get a wristband and you MIGHT get tickets, if your lucky.
my number was 46.
At 9 they called the number 544 [or something close to that.] They had around 720ish people. Luckily, my friend Khaya had number 693, so she got in line earlier and would be buying me a ticket.
they continued calling, and got to 21-60 and I decided, hey, I have the money for another ticket, why not buy one? My friends Jade and Jasmine, were around 100/200 and wanted to know if I could buy them tickets too. I agreed and they handed me their money.
My Mom called and told me she got four tickets online for the Feb 23rd, 2007; Row 22, 8:00 pm show. I was so excited. Now I had tickets, no matter what. I wanted to see if I could get closer, so I stayed in line...
My phone did not stop ringing all day. Under Pressure, Take a Breath [Chipmunk], and SOS played constantly, without end, txts and calls, from EVERYONE.
It was around 11 and we got back outside, for our tickets. Khaya and Anahit came strolling down with tickets and handed me one.
Feb 23rd, 2007; Row 13, 8:00 pm.
I was excited, I would be extremely close.
Soon enough news got out that there was going to be an earlier show, on the same day, and I was getting closer to the front of the box office. Jade, Jaz, and me waited in line some more, while freezing to death, and soon enough I got in.
Feb 23rd, 2007; Row 4 - Orchestra Pit, 4:00 pm.
I had a front row-ish ticket for the OTHER show.
that means, I'm going to both :)
and I have close both times too.
Boy, doesn't it pay off to be a Jonas fan sometimes?! <3 :)
I got home around 1 pm, after being out ALL morning.
then at 2, I had to get ready for solo ensemble. I had been yelling and cheering all day. My throat still is in pain.
but I got a II for my rating, so that's pretty good. It's cause I'm sick and all nasaly. :b!
I don't care, I'm just pumped. This is going to be amazing.
