So I took my girlfriend to see Projekt Revolution in Mass. We explored the activity area during The Used, and my buddy ran off to go watch MOP. My girlfriend and I passed the batting cages and stepping into a trailer where we played a baseball game on PS2. I glance over and notice a familiar figure looking at the Red Sox hats..."Honey...that guy looks just like Mike Shinoda". As he turned I knew it HAD to be him. "That's MikeShinodagottabemikeshinodadefinatelymikeshinoda"...so I walked up, very casually to "look at the Red Sox hats". I stepped up next to him and said "hey." and kept my eyes on the hats. He looked over and smiled "hey, what's up man?". "Not much, checking out the Sox hats huh?", I asked him. "Yup!", he said "You liking the show?" "Yeah this is awesome, I love what you guys have done with it".... ...then the obnoxious fanboy came out of me. "Dude I just gotta say you're amazing, I'm psyched to see you guys". He shook my hand. "Thanks, I appreciate that". My girlfriend came over shyly and shook his hand as well. I asked for his autograph but a large man came out from behind me and Mike kinda said softly "I don't think I can..." The guard asked me to be on my way. "He's got an interview, he's gonna be late", the large muscley man said to me. "Yeah", said Mike "We got an interview to get to...listen are you gonna be at the Meet and Greet?". I looked down at the ground. "No..." "That's cool, just hanging out...well I gotta run, nice meeting you" "Yeah thanks a lot, take it easy!" I said. Then as Mike is walking away with the guard I notice Brad Delson was beside him. "Take it easy", I stuttered to him in a panic. "SH*T!", I was panicked "Hun, I'm such a jerk, I didn't even notice Brad was there!" She pleaded with me but when I noticed Brad peaking out of the trailer I ran back like a fool. "Sorry about that I didn't even see you back there, I'm a huge fan" He laughed "Naw it's cool" and shook my hand. You never expect to find yourself in a situation like that and afterwords think to yourself "AUGH!!! There's SO MANY things I could have SAID!" That's ok though, it was just really cool to be able to say hi and shake the hands of two musical artists I respect so much.
I know how that feels! Although I wasn't so lucky...I wanna kick your ass and steal your luck! I was still there after this LP concert i went to, and then i saw a black cap on the floor, thought it was someone else's so i left it alone, then later i found out Mike had thrown his cap THE EXACT SPOT I FOUND THAT CAP. And it was black too. I totally kicked myself for days on end because of that. Actually this should be in Around The World but we'll wait for someone to move it...
When my friend and I were at the Almost Acoustic Christmas, my friend could of swore that he saw Mr. Hahn walking by the rail during the setup of Offsprings set. He said Mr. Hahn had two big guard around him.
<---was at PR in Mass too... Hah I probably bumped into you and didn't realize it... That's awesome...
Man, that's awesome! Undeadspectre - I feel disappointed, just reading the post. That sucks. If that was me, I'd never let it go...
Awesome! and very lucky too! I really wish I could meet them, but then again, I haven't even seen them live! They don't come to Autralia very often..
man that is way cool, i envy you i didnt meet phoenix, but when i saw them in manchester (march 2003, the start of the world tour), he just had shaved his head and i didnt recognise his at first, and i shouted "hey there dave!" then he turned round and waved as he passed through a doorway
It's been a month and 19 days and i still haven't let it go. When i realized it, I felt guilty and sad and hated myself for being observant for the first time and screwing the whole thing up. It was on June 22, the concert, and on July 22 I still felt really guilty.
Yea I went to Projekt Revolution in Camden NJ and i had gone the day b4 to the 1 in Jones beach but had only seen half the show. since i wasnt really into the used or less than jake, i decided to go to the show late just so i cud see korn and LP. so when i was at the ticket booth to pick up the tickets, i see these two huge guys walk by like 5 feet away from me, and then i see chester :chaz: rite behind them . i was wearing this shirt with linkin park written in huge letters and chaz turned 2 me and said hey and i just froze. i dont think i said ne thing but i just remember that moment... and im so friggin pissed that i didnt say ne thing!! but ne wayz during the concert his sweat landed on my shirt. im never gonna wash or wear it again......
Who's warned? I assume it's not me seeing as how I wasn't acting teenie in any way, shape or form. *My apologies...I realize you weren't referring to me. I'm sorry.
