Okay...here I go again :P. I'm going to cut the review short....

Husband and I flew into Colorado the morning of the show. We got to the venue about 6 PM. Our contact was great...let us in, showed us around and let us stash some of our stuff. This venue was perfect for street teaming because there was only one entrance. So, the doors opened about 6:30 and we started handing out our bracelets and saying our speil. A few minutes into it we saw Todd, who was talking to some fans....maybe Andrea from MN? I don't remember....Todd then came over to us to say "hi" and thank us. At that point Todd didn't know if there would be a signing or not. I told him I better get a picture of him for Tina or I would be in trouble...so here it is:

We had a great response from the fans who were extatic to hear that Toby was there. We quickly ran out of the 200 bracelets we had so we made our way to our seats. While sitting there we spoke to our neighbors to find out who they were there to see and to tell them about Juke Kartel. A few minutes later we heard Electric Mary playing over the sound system...and I was so excited I told everyone around me who they were and how to find them. Then...it was time for Juke! They came out with all the energy we expect and more! They opened with Watcha gonna do which I was excited about after hearing it had been pulled....they played December, Rebel Yell, Burning down the house and TIA.

So after JK's set we went out to the lobby...ran into Andrea who flew in from MN (and now an active member) she had not seen any of the guys either. I gave her some post cards,put some at the merchandise table and in the bathrooms. Went back to our seats...

After about 3/4 of SN set my husband and I went back out to the lobby to see if anything was going on...and sure enough they were setting up tables. My husband said to me they are going to do signings. About a minute or two later here came Misha, Toby, Todd and Tommy. We greeted them and asked what we could do to help...and they asked us to stand at each end of the tables. I was down by Tommy and Dale (who should up a few minutes later) and Gary (husband) stood down by Toby. Gary pushed the EP's and I pushed the hoodies, Tank top and of course the Street Team. We passed out post cards and talked to the fans about the guys...the guys signed everything...purses, belts, shirts, shoes and some guys butt? Yeah...I guys butt!

Anyway...my husband was EXTREMELY impressed with all of the guys and especially Toby. Gary told me later that he heard Toby take the time to thank the ladies who sold the merchandise for them and how gracious he was with all fans...young or old.
We had a great time! I'm so happy that my husband got to meet them....he now has a better understanding of why I am so passionate to help them succeed.
Here are some of me and the guys.

Ok, so I was super excited to be going to this show. It was on a Tuesday night, and I only decided to go on on Monday afternoon, about 24 hours before the show. My friend lives in CO and I found some front row center tickets online for really really cheap, booked a flight, and off I went. YAY!

So we walk in the door and walk up the stairs to go into the arena, and I am walking and someone grabs my shirt and says hey! It was Todd! We had hung out at the bar at the Minneapolis show just a few days earlier. That was sooo totally cool! :-) So we chatted with him for a bit. This is where I met Tracie and her husband who gave me my glow bracelet. Tracie gave me some JK cards to pass out which I did to everyone in the front row and later to some people chatting about who that hot Toby guy was. Well now they are iwell nformed!

The show was incredible! Our seats were killer. When Tommy came out he gave me a wave, he remembered me from the week earlier too. Damn I was feeling the love ;-) Toby came over during December and grabbed my friends beer and chugged half. I told her to keep the cup now that we had Toby's DNA. ;-) Oooh what we could do with that! lol :-) The guys just sounded completely awesome, they are just the greatest! Not that I have to tell any of you that.

The guys did a signing after the show, so we of course stopped by to say hi. They signed a ton of pics for me that I had taken the week before in Mpls, and Toby even commented on his great picture taking skills of the one he took of himself with me in the background at the Mpls show. LOL

I am so happy that I made the trip out to see them again. They never disappoint.

Here are some of my pics....I didn't get too many good ones at this show, the lights were all funky. I do have some video from the show on my myspace page, check them out at www.myspace.com/ajacks1028 (http://www.myspace.com/ajacks1028)

Enjoy!
