You would think, right? Sounds like they just happened to have a jerk in charge over there.

[Rose]

That's what I don't get, why not let them finish and pay the fine lol. Apparently the cops were harsh in herding them out too. Or so I hear, we'll see what Julie says lol,

[mare]

Yeah, I'm curious to hear from her perspective. Hopefully they start on time tonight LOL

[julilly]

Story time... I get home from the gym this morning and my mother asks me if I would be interested in coming with her on a trip to Windsor/Detroit next week to see her family as I haven't met two of her brothers. I said sure then was like oh darn I will have missed the BSB Toronto show by a day!

Plans are set in motion to take this trip when I realize that the Michigan show is on Thursday - the same day we fly in! The venue is less than an hour away. I'm thinking there's no way I'm going to be able to handle being 50 minutes away and not at the show so I take a curious glance at ticketmaster to see what is left for tickets. The first single seat I pull up is Section RT, row B. I look at the little map and....shit... row B as in ROW B. Not row B of the nosebleed section, of the main section. I've never been that close at a BSB show! I check stub hub and the closest seat is Row G for $100 over face. Impulsively, I buy the ticket.

They say its easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission right? Well ... sorta. My mum isn't really impressed. We are going to be there for a full week but apparently it upsets her that this is more important to me than spending time with my family. I was like its one evening. Then came how are you going to get there, you shouldn't be driving in Detroit at night, etc etc. Part of me regrets this plan and knows my life would be so much easier if I just dealt with the sadness that came from missing the show.

The other part of me is FUCKING STOKED! Since they don't want me driving at night I now have to pay for a room. Which sucks but whatever. Also my mother commented on how she didn't see why I needed to go since I'm going on the cruise and said my obsession was a bit out of control. Dude, I'm going to one freaken show. Not ten. One. Lol

There's still a little piece of me that says "don't go..." though. :/

Honestly I don't see the big deal. It's one night. I know if I went to see family in Cali and BSB were performing that night I'd totally buy a ticket if I could knowing I'd be there for a full week. My family almost expects it from me at this point.

[mare]

It seems like the stars lined up for you, so go and enjoy yourself.

I'm sure if you decided against it, you'd be absolutely miserable the entire time you were in Detroit just thinking about it, right? chalk it off as a gift for yourself and the next time you want to buy something say "Okay I spent that already!" Maybe that will alleviate the 'don't go' feelings.

[julilly]

That's a good way of thinking of it!

And you're right. I even said to her that if I didn't go, I would regret it. I followed that up by saying its not that it's more important but I've had a really shitty spring/summer (losing my job, losing my apartment, having to move home, not being able to find a new job, etc) so I'd really like to have a night to do something I'm really excited about.

[mare]

Well there ya go!

[Sakabelle]

Is it bad that I looked up the cost of a flight to Michigan?

Seriously though, so excited for you! Can't wait to hear all about it!

[Carter-Orange]

I don't know why that would be so bad, you're there for a week and the show is just one night.  Go for it and have a great time! Can't wait to hear all about it and see your videos/pictures

I would do exactly the same thing in your position!

[julilly]

Is it bad that I looked up the cost of a flight to Michigan?

No, because I almost didn't go because I didn't want to go without you!! It just won't feel right.

[Carter-Orange]

Just watching Julie's videos on You Tube and really wish I was seeing them soon!

[mare]

I know! They came out really fantastic. I haven't really seen all that much from last night's performance.

I hope they do a second leg and I hope they come here and I hope I can afford to go and I hope I can find someone to go with me! That's a lot of cards that need to be stacked in my favor! LOL Cards do not usually do that for me though!

Hey Julie I know you haven't written anything in here yet but I have to say the videos I have checked out so far that you posted, have been amazing! I have only watched the sound check ones so far! LOL at them all having trouble with Soldier.

Thank you!!  I bought an expensive new camera with a good zoom and video-taking abilities just for BSB stuff, and I'm so happy it paid off!  The pictures and videos I got this time are amazing!

I am going to write a LONG review to post in here, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.  It'll be coming soon!
