The concert was amazing, many times better than the one I saw in 2003. Unfortunately, the meet-and-greet wasn't at all anything like the one in 2003. It was... disappointing. We lined up along the wire fencing and single-filed into a makeshift tent/pavilion, where Al sat at a table. We talked for a couple minutes, took a couple pictures, and left.
This experience was again a gift from my folks, like last time, but they truly got ripped off. I feel bad because we really did have a great time, the ending just wasn't what we had hoped.
Experiences like this are pretty much what I dread -- it gets built up and when it occurs, it ends up being a letdown. The meet/greet was the letdown.
But again, the concert was great! The band was tight, the videos were freakin' hilarious, and all-in-all, just a damn good show. Just not worth what my folks paid, that's all.
Oh, god forbid you piss off my mother. Suffice to say, you will not be the same when she's done. Sadly, the charity we got these passes to will not be the same either.
