It was
AWESOME!!! I had a blast!!
I took a TON of pictures so I will get them uploaded and posted as soon as I can. I was sooo close....loved where I was! I was on the 3rd row in the floor seats - RIGHT THERE! My seats (of course I didn't sit once) were right in front of Richie Sambora for most of the concert, but they moved around the stage a lot so Jon Bon Jovi was directly in front of me some of the time too. Even when he was in the center of the stage, he was still just right there! Facing the stage, I was a little left of the center, just a few feet from the stage.
The concert was soooooo awesome. I was so excited about going and it just exceeded my expectations. They rocked! The crowd was so into it too. He would hold out the mic and let the crowd sing some of the lines and we were loud, not to mention good. lol On my DVD's, the crowd didn't sound as loud, but it could just sound that way on the DVD...I dunno.
During
Wanted Dead or Alive, when he got to the line, "Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days" Richie Sambora stepped up to the center mic and sang for a while. It was so kewl. They sang some together, on each side of the mic. You'll see in the pics soon.
Bon Jovi sings so good and his songs are incredible. I was also impressed with Richie Sambora on the guitar. The dude jams!! He is all into it!
I had brought a very small purse to just hold stuff like the tickets, my license, some cash, lipstick, keys, etc. and it came open and everything went everywhere. Then I noticed my cell phone wasn't in my cell phone case. I had used it in the building before the concert. So I used a friends' cell phone and called it....someone answered it. I could tell it was a girl but I couldn't hear a word she said. I just said that I would call back after the concert and hopefully she'd meet me and return my phone. She called back after the concert before I had a chance to call. Apparently, when I was running down the steps to get to the floor seats, it popped out of the case and she said she stepped on it during the concert. lol
I never found my lipstick. heh
I bought an awesome shirt and got a free Bon Jovi tour bag for filling out a credit app. I had to have the bag to put the shirt I wore there in when I put on my Bon Jovi shirt for the concert.
The only bad thing about the night was that the concert eventually ended. I want to go again. The atmosphere was amazing. I had a blast!!
I was in HEAVEN!
Y'all just thought I was Bon Jovi crazy before....
Edit: Btw, I heard from AirForceMet this morning. They had a blast too!
I've never been to a concert before, but I imagine they must have such a great atmosphere.
sounded awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glad you had a good time!!!!!!!
