Wahooooo!!!! (no....I didn't meet Hanson...) The concert was sooooo awesome!!!!

I met a lot of people in line....(if you were there....you might have saw me! I had a Hanson sign that said ROCK ON IKE TAY ZAC HANSON w/ lights all around it, and an Admiral Twin sign that said MORE KISSES FOR ADMIRAL TWIN and it had a pic. of Jarrod and Brad from recent concerts!) We stayed in a line for like 20 minutes (at like 2:00) and these two girls that we talked to right when we got in, ran up to us and told us that AdmiralTwin was out signing autographs allllllll the way out back!!!! Me and my sister (w/ my mom trying to keep up! she's so cool) and another group of girls were running out (AdmiralTwin promised us pic's at NJ, but they had to go....so we wanted them in Connecticut)!!! It turned out we were to late....so we were waiting out there for awhile! Then these caterers walked by bringing food in for AdmiralTwin and Hanson! I asked if I could help them and this guy goes "No, sorry" So I'm like ohhhhhh man!!!! About 30 minutes later the same guy walks by and I go "Are you sure you don't need any help?" and he said "No, but I got this for you." And he handed me Admiral Twin and Hanson's Schedule for the day! I said "Thank you so much!" He said ANYTIME!!! He was so nice!! Then my mom came back w/ some Wendy's! yummy!!!

After about 20 minutes...my friends Ash and Cathy went by screaming out the window that they followed HANSON allllllllllll the way from MA to Connecticut!!!! Zac, Avery, and Jessy were waving to them out the window!!! They said Taylor kept on fixing their hair! They followed them for about 30 minutes then lost them! I think it is really cool!!!! After awhile, Hanson pulled up in their tour bus!!! They were peeking through the shades...but didn't oped them :( After that...we thought we had waited long enough! We got back into the Civic Center, and thanked the girls for watching our signs!

After awhile they let us in!!! We went and saw our seats (THEY WERE SOOOOOO CLOSE!) Then we went up to a security guy and asked him where the backstage was! We were right near it!!! (We were right next to the stage on the right...in the stands) Then Jarrod walked by! I screamed "hey JARROD!!! Can ya come here?? PLEASE!!!!!! Remember us from NJ and Hershey??" he laughed and waved! He didn't come out though!! He walked by again and I go "Hey Jarrod!! Please!!! we have something for you!!!" He waved and smiled!!! Then Mark went by and I go "Hey!!! MARK!!!! Can you come here! He walked through the curtain and came out!!! My friend practically collapsed.....because she is like MADLY in love w/ Mark!!! Then my sister goes "Mark can you go get Jarrod?" he frowned and turned around!!! I go "NO MARK!!!! Come here!!!" he turned around and smiled and said "Hold on a couple seconds!" :) He went up on the stage and me and my friends screamed!!! He just laughed!!! Then he went b-stage again! Then he came out w/ Jarrod!! I go "Hey Mark!! Can you come here?" he walked over and looked at my AdmiralTwin sign! It said MORE KISSES FOR ADMIRAL TWIN...and it had a picture of a HersheyKiss and a pic. of Jarrod and Brad from HersheyPA. Mark goes "Hey, wheres my picture?" then I said "When we met the group, you were at the Fry-Stand so we couldn't get your picture!" Then he goes "Oh.....Ya...I remember!!!" Then he signed my sign!!! We talked for a little-bit! He is so sweet!!! Then I go "Hey Mark, my friend right here (and I pointed to Ash) is soooo in love with you!!!!" He smiled and goes "Hi! How old are you?" and Ashley goes "Ahhh....14!" and Mark so sweetly says "Oh man! Where were you when I was 14!!!" ISN'T THAT SOOOO SWEET TO SAY??!?!?! :o) Then we got Jarrods attention! He walked over and we go "Hey, remember us from NJ and Hershey? You dedicated "DOWN" to us at NJ!" Then Mark says "Oh that was you guys?" and Jarrod goes "Ya...I remember!!!!!" We were like !!! Then we gave Jarrod the drumsticks we made him.....(they had glow-in-the-dark paint on em...but you could only see em glowing in the dark if you had one of the first sections) and he goes "Woh man these are cool! I'll try to use them!!!" Then my friend Cathy pulls out drumsticks we had made for Zac and asked him to give em to him!!! Jarrod goes "oh ya sure!!!"

Then my sister...goes "Hey Jarrod are you married?" Jarrod didn't answer! Then my sister goes "Jarrod will you sign this for me?" He goes "SURE" He wrote a little letter on it....wanna hear it??? It says " Nicole....so you want to marry me?? Is that what you are trying to say? Jarrod Gollihare" hehehe :o) Then I asked Jarrod to sing my sign! He signed the front of it then on the back he wrote: Kristen....I can't believe you like this pictures of me!! Jarrod Golliahare"

He is sooo cooooooool!!!! After that I wrote Jarrod a little letter saying that we loved the group and we are the #1 fans!!! We told him to read it before the concert...which he did!!! After about 10 more minutes of just talking about anything..me and my sister left!! We had to go blow up our beach balls for A.T!!!!

After about 8 minutes my friends Ash and Cathy run up to me and go "You'll never believe what Ashley just did!!!" I asked what? and cathy goes "I asked Mark for a hug! Then just as we were about to put our arms around each other..Ashley pushed me out of the way and hugged him!!!!" Hey...I told you Ashley was madly in love woth Mark!!!! How funny is that?? I was CRACKING up!!! I thought it was hilarious!!!

Admiral Twin finally came on!!! We told them to look for our sign and silly- string!!! You could tell they all knew where we were!!! They waved and kept on looking over!!! Jarrod was even laughing at us!!! We were like so noticeable with our wacky-hyper dancing!!! Then DOWN was about to come on!!! "The next song "DOWN" is off our c.d "UNLUCKY" and its a SPECIAL dedication to a SPECIAL group of girls!!!!!"

O.k.....now you can only imagine what we were like!!! I screamed "THEY DID IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Everyone around us looked over and laughed!!! Brad waved to us!! Jarrod was laughing at us!!! God, he could probably hear us!!! After A.T left the stage....and Hanson was on, we held up our sign!!! It said ROCK ON IKE TAY ZAC HANSON and it had lights all around it! Every single time I put it up Isaac and Taylor would look over at it!!!! It was so awesome! During the Hanson concert we went out to where the buses pull out cause we told Admiral Twin we would be out there! We saw Hanson get on their bus AND again, they were reading my sign!!! Man, they must like it :o) Jarrod and Brad came out!!!! We got pictures!!! About 30!!! I got a 30 second hug w/ Jarrod!!! I got about 5 other pic's of me and Jarrod, and of me and Brad!!! Then I got some of just them posing for my camera and Brad signing my sign....and a bunch of stuff like that! We were out there for about 1 hour just talking to Jarrod and Brad!!! It was soooo awesome!!! After awhile a whole lot more people went up to Jarrod (ohhhhhh...poor BRAD!) so we stayed w/ Brad!!! At one point my sister took a picture of Jarrods butt and Brad goes "Um...what are you doing?" and I go "She just took a picture of his ass!" and my sister goes "Hey....turn around so I can get a picture of yours!" Brad goes "ah, no that's OK" He was laughing of course!!! my sister is such a nut!!! Well....that pretty much sum's up everything!!!! That was my 3rd time meeting Admiral Twin! I have a feeling I'm going to be talking to them more!!! Well, hope you enjoyed my WONDERFUL experience!

Lots of AdmiralTwin and Hanson,

Kristen
