I don't "LOL" often but I really did laugh out loud this time! :laugh3:

If Jonny & Chris are so in love, what is keeping them from ditching the surrogates and making it official? Why even bother with the ladies, then? How long can they keep up the front?

This is, by far, the most amusing thread I've read in a long time. Now I have to think of a question....

I was on at 9:30 am to be sure I could pounce at 10:00. The 1st set was Floor sec 5 row 10, I think. I passed on it since I am very short. But now I regret it. Then the next set was Lower Level sec 112 row 2. I took them since I had no idea what would come next. I'm not terribly unpleased but I was hoping to be on the other side near Jonny. I've been terribly spoiled these last few shows and these seats, which aren't that bad, pale in comparison. If anyone has similar seats just on the other side, would you want to swap sides? Just thought I'd put it out there. I'm thinking just as I would prefer to be on one side perhaps another person has tickets on one side opposite what they prefer, too. How does comcast tix work??? I've been checking on & off for seats. I'm being offered all kinds of spots like sections 110-104. I would love to score some 123 or 124's...even if it's a higher row. Not a one has come up? Could they be sold out? I thought it was all random? You can't choose can you??

You guys are killing me with all these Jonny pics... Boy, do I wish.......

I just entered!

Nevermind, I missed your post that read $44 for Amtrak. Much better.

And the Philadelphia international airport is very close to the venue...15 minutes or so. Maybe less. And I believe there are hotels near the airport.

Angie, come to Philly. It's a great city. And maybe we can meet again.

I'm hoping I can go. I am quite broke at the moment. I'll ebay some stuff if I have to. :laugh3:

Is this real or photoshopped?? I hope it's real. They clearly are smitten with one another. Why do you suppose they just don't ditch the ladies and commit? We surely won't think differently of them. :laugh3: I wonder what their ladies think of it? I wonder if Chris and Jonny look at their ladies the way they look at eachother. I doubt it.

You forgot to add "sweat" to the equation. So yes, I suppose you are right. :laugh3:

Hey Angie! Haha!! I've been called lots of things but porn hoarder is a first. :laugh3: Love it!! I'll share the goodness sooner next time. :)

Hi Professa. I left during during "Lovers in Japan" to see if I could get a glimpse of the guys leaving. I did. They were with a police escort so didn't stop. So I sent them off by holding my sign, smiling and waving goodbye as they drove by. :) After they left, I decided pretty last minute to go back in!!! Thousands were rushing out as I was making my way back in. I went down and told a little lie. I said I had forgotten my phone. Another man told me to leave but instead of turning around where I entered, I walked across the floor towards the catwalk near Jonny's side and made my way to the lower level. I saw Matt, Jonny's guitar tech on stage and yelled his name twice but he didn't look up. I thought he was ignoring me and felt pretty dumb so I turned around to go. then I hear someone calling outand I turned around and Matt was climbing from the floor and hanging from the lower level railing and handed me the setlist. He said "here you go" and then jumped down. :D

I framed Jonny's setlist from the Philly show along with my ticket stub & some butterflies.

The last of them.

More...

These are very overdue. Sorry. I hope this works.

YOu are right. I think SHE may have been toasted. :laugh3: I wish the played "Cemeteries..." too.

I'll post pics soon. I still owe everyone my 2nd row pics from the Today Show. I haven't forgotten you all. Can someone tell me how to insert photos here?

The concert was amazing. Although, I will never bring my step-Dad again....he got drunk and almost got kicked out twice for acting a fool. He was embarrassing and wouldn't leave me alone!!! For some time, I was distracted and worrying about that but after a bit I shrugged my shoulders and ignored him. I really didn't care if he got kicked out. I actually hoped he had. Security was almost non existent. No metal detector, I guy just peaked in my bag. I managed to bring a camera and video recorder. My Dad was in charge of taping but that didn't last long and I'm sure whatever video I do have wasn't made with a steady hand since he was intoxicated!!! I got some pics. Most are dark...I need a better camera. But I got a few gems and I'm grateful. Anyway, back to the show. I had great seats. Row 12 and I had an aisle seat. I was right near the end of the catwalk. The side they did "Chinese Sleep Chant". They were so close!!! I held up my "Hi, Jon heart (picture of heart), Jess" sign (I know that was dumb but I couldn't think of anything clever. It got his attention and he shyly smiled at me. Right after the butterflies fell in "Lovers in Japan", I left. THey were not finished the encore but I wanted to check outside out since I knew they'd be leaving straight from encore. Well I made my way over to the tor busses. I think there were five or so. THe were so easily accessible so I figured that was too easy. I walked some more and came to an area. I looked down over the iron gate and down below in a very secure spot was two police SUV's and four black SUV's with tinted windows with the doors open awaiting the band. THis area they were in was below ground level. To get out the had to enter a small tunnel but the tunnel was short. I walked over to the end of the tunnel and there was a gate with a guard. I asked the guard if the band would exit here. He said yes. I asked if they may stop (I was the only one out there waiting since I left before the show was over). He said they couldn't since they'd have a police escort. I walked closer to the exit. Within minutes I see the police car coming towards me with its lights on. I held up my Jonny sign as the guys cars went by. Will's window was cracked several inches so I saw him looking out the window. The rest of the windows were shut but I could see the silhouettes of the others as the went by. And they were gone. I decided to go back into the venue. Thousands of people were rushing out and little 'ol me was squeezing back in. I'm surprised I was able to. I entered the lower level and told a fib. I said I had forgotten my phone. She let me in but another guy told me I had to leave. I didn't turn around to exit where I entered. Instead, I walked across the floor. On the catwalk on jonny's side I saw a man tearing up the floor. I interrupted him and asked for a guitar pick. He said he didn't have anything. He was American so I don't think he was with the band but rather employed by the Wachovia Center? I don't know. Anyway, I climbed back to the lower level and saw Matt, Jonny's guitar tech. I called him twice and he didn't look up or anything. I was heading back up and then I heard someone shouting "yo!" I turned around and Matt was climbing up the lower level from the floor and handed me Jonny's setlist. :) He said 'Here you go". I said, "thank you, I love you". I am elated to have just that. I'll post pics. Maybe someone can help me decipher what's written on it. I guess it's guitar lingo? Anyway, I had a great night. The band was amazing. Chris' energy amazes me so. I love the band so much and can't wait to see them again. October maybe??

Hey joe and fellow sign gang members. I see the final design was sent out today. As much as I was hoping to participate in some way at least, I can't. I'm at work til 6:00 no break since we are short staffed. So that means no trip to kinkos. And work won't allow copies to be made here. Chances are I won't see any of you as I will be getting there late. Sorry guys. I really am. :embarassed: J.Marie

A proposal, huh? :) I don't know. But it's still better than anything I've come up with.

Sign ideas--- I need help. I'm seeing them tomorrow (12th row center). I'm drawing a blank on sign ideas and I've had plenty of time to think about it and I have nothing. Please help. I'd like two---one directed to the band and one for Jonny.

I was afraid you guys would say before the show. I fully planned on taking the day off but someone is on vacation here at work and we are shorthanded so I have to be here. I'm losing hope...
