Seattle, WA 10/21/09
So, Erin picks me up at Katy's that morning with Megan, Leeanna, and Renata already crammed in her car... so we add all my stuff and we are even more crammed... I have my suitcase on my lap... as we all do. We drive from Portland to Tacoma where we were going to stop and change and unload things. Along the ride up we rock out to Honor Society, no duh and even film ourselves doing the honor roll with all our stuff on our laps... haha uh yeah, we were crammed! We get to Tacoma and get all changed and done up and head up to Seattle. We stop off at Walmart to pick up our picture prints to get the gents to sign as well as pick up some mcdonalds as we were all starving! We get to the venue and squeeze into our parking spots! It was a tight fit!
We get in line where my friend Ashley was saving our spots! There were maybe 15 people ahead of us... we hang out for a bit before we decide to go to the bathroom. By that time Candace had gotten there and so her and I run over there and get lost inside... place was huge! On the way in some guy tried to hit on me, I just kept walking and he told me to fuck off! Um ok... sure thanks... We get back in line and I decide to make a sign for Alex, asking for a drumstick... I spend forever on it as that is what I do! We hung out under umbrella's and poncho's as it started to rain a tad bit. I had my back to Silverado, which was parked in front of the venue... I had my yellow poncho on. The guys walk by to enter the venue... I had my back to them. But girls start to freak out, so I turn around to face them and say "Do you like my poncho?". Jay, Alex, and Andy heard me say that. Alex liked my poncho. haha...Finally we get lined up for the Soundcheck... We all get in there and it was awesome! I was dead center, 2nd row right behind Leeanna. Megan was right behind me.
SOUNDCHECK
It was our second stop, and the gents first ever stop in Seattle. Oh yeah, it was also the FIRST EVER soundcheck party! They did Two Rebels and Where Are You Now. Mike and Alex re-enacted the incident from the Tacoma show this past summer (he got hit in the face by Alex's drumstick...), some girl asked Jay to do Frozone, they had a question/answer session. I asked them if they got the tea I gave Kat the previous night and if they had liked it. They said they had gotten in and liked it. I then asked them to do Tonight's the Night, Mike played the first 5 bars or so, but stopped. Alex doesn't know it I don't think and I doubt Mike remembered it all... instead they did Unpredictable, upon Candace's request. Mike did a sweet ass guitar solo... he rocked it. A bunch of girls asked for picks, it got old. The guys even asked if there were any other questions that weren't for picks... haha. Some girl asked who their fave jonas are arnd their fave song... um ok, dumb ass question...
Here are the video's from soundcheck:

They then end it and I was holding up my sign for Alex. He sees me and at the end after some people walk out he hands me a drumstick with a HUGE smile on his face. i say thank you and he says no problem! A lot of people had gifts for them. Candace gave Andy her scrapbook from back in the day and he is so jazzed he starts to look at it right there! Erin and Renata give Andy their beer snuggie things that say mine on them. He says it reminds him of finding nemo... I say yes! the seagulls and he said "mineminemineminemine..." haha hes a crack up. I ask him for a pick he puts his hands up and says he is all out and sorry! I say it's ok, I'll try at Boise! We walk out and get back in the front of line... where our friends were saving our spots. There was a ton of line drama, stupid drama.... It gets you nowhere my dears...
THE SHOW
RADIO M&G
The venue dudes were super strict, seemed like they had sticks up their asses... they kept saying no hugs... over and over again. Ok, we get the f'n point! I walk up to them and give them all hugs... seriously. They went to hug me, I am NOT going to pass up hugs if they are wanting to hug me, sorry venue dudes. They were quick hugs anyways, so get that stick un-stuck and get over it... Anyways, I ask them if they can do their fave superhero poses... Jay liked that idea.. It was a good picture :)
MERCH M&G
I had Candace buy my merch while we were in the Radio M&G line... they were about to close... hah. I got another CD... they let us back in for the merch one after the fan club pictures. I went back in, gave them hugs again... haha, and asked if they could do "monkey" faces. Mike and Jay go "you don't really want us do that do you?" I say we can do whatever pose they want, they get to pick. So, Mike says "Lets do a normal smiling..." Andy interjects "put up on your fridge pic."... so Jay, Mike, and I are normal, of course Alex and Andy aren't... they crack me up!
After everything we went to a GENERIC DENNY's... and eat. We were hungry and tired. I almost passed out there again... We did the honor roll in the restaurant and banged on the tables... it was funny. The manager was chill, he was funny. We then went back to Erins and passed out.... we had a bit of a drive the next day for Boise...
