NKOTBSB Tour
Chicago, IL
June 18th 2011
Today was day number two for me I was beyond excited my friend Melissa dropped me off at the Wylee party and I ended up buying two shirts, chatted for the longest time with two girls that were helping Leighanne. Shortly after Leighanne came outside from her trailer and saw me and gave me a warm smile and told me it was good seeing me and we hugged, we also talked bout me being on stage with Nick the previous night and she was like “Brian should of picked you” I laughed I’m like yeah but I knew he was going to pick a kid and she told us a story bout a girl that Brian had picked and was so nervous ha-ha it was cute Leighanne stood with all of us and chatted for the longest time and took photo’s.
I got a few minutes alone with her I gave her a bracelet and told her bout my mom’s kidney and she was happy to hear that my mom was doing good and she was like wanting to make sure everything was going well and such it was sweet, then we talked a bit about some other things and she told me to just brush it off because she said if she spent her time thinking of the haters that she has it would just make life miserable and I totally agree, I cannot remember the word from word she told me but I think miserable is the right term for all that she had said but I ended up giving her a hug before I left with my friend’s to go inside and find our seats, we were all different in different seats.
It was weird sitting alone and not really having anyone to talk too but I loved that I had a floor seat and was only in 7th row so it turned out to be good after the boys
came on I totally forgot about it. I got eye contact from everyone NKOTB and BSB, I danced, I sang I pretty much had a blast. It’s funny Brian saw me during the time to pick a fan for INBYH and he was looking at me but he choose a fan that was section over from me and it was a little girl but I’m glad he thought of me for that small moment, lol!
Danny came right by me since I was the 2nd seat from the aisle and the poor guy got mobbed a bit fans wanting photo’s with him and such but it was awesome that NKOTB came in to the crowd, I can’t remember if I shook his hand or just touched his arm, a girl next to me basically threw herself on him to get a photo so I just stepped away.
Over all it was a amazing show I was so happy to get to see another one because it’s one of the best damn shows I ever been too!
After the show it was time to go get pampered up and go to the club for Nick’s after party. The place was 30 minutes away and we couldn’t find the place I felt we may of passed it but we ended up finding it and having valet so we checked in and went into the VIP area and I met up with Brittany and we basically just chatted while waiting for Nick to arrive, I was sitting down on the sofa bench due to my legs and feet they were killing me from how much walking and standing I’ve done since I arrived to Chicago.
Nick arrives and everyone basically everyone was going crazy and I’m not just saying the fans people that worked there as well, even Mike (Nick’s bodyguard) they started the photos right away by the way this was so unorganized first they did groups of 5, singles, groups of 2 or 3, back to singles it was a huge mess Nick was confused of what was going on he was even telling Mike to chill out because he was being fierce. I went up and got my photo taken with Nick and this other fan Jennifer I had met and so when we went up and got our photo (there was like 3 camera’s) I wasn’t sure which camera to look at but after the photo was taken Jennifer got Nick to sign something for her and then I waited for my turn patiently to just thank him. I told him thank you and we hugged and I walked away and saw him smiling (his smile just kills me).
After we went back to our spots Jennifer told me that our photo turned out blurry so I told her I would try to get us another chance meanwhile I was just watching him taking photo’s with other fans and while he had a moment break I stood up to just try and get a photo of him and he saw me taking it and afterwards he winked and smiled ;) I just laughed and sat right back down.
Eventually I gotten Nick’s attention and I told him that our photo was blurry it didn’t work so he told his bodyguard Mike to let me back in but everything happened so fast that I couldn’t even try to get Jennifer’s attention so he let me in through the rope and I went and got it taken and I told him thank you and apologized and I went and sat back down until we were escorted out.
All of us had to go into the other part of the club and do whatever but almost everyone was at the stage for his performance, he came back and talked for a bit and took a small video from his phone but never came back he ended up in the DJ booth and stayed there for the rest of the night, he ended up performing for us, and it was awesome to see him sing his songs from his newest solo album. I was on the floor had a great view but before Nick sang his last song I had to move due to some rude fans standing in front of me when they haven’t even been there in the first place so I went and stood on two chairs and hanged out with Brittany and it was the best decision I made because when I did I had major eye contact which made me smile of course, he thanked us for coming signed for a few fans and then he left.
