DISer chapter of NKOTB anonymous, part 3... still goin' strong!

[hmdavid]

Welcome to the third thread of NKOTB fun!

Thanks Heather! I can't believe we're on our third thread girls. With the tour this coming summer, it might not be long til we're closing in on the fourth.

Ok, so maybe I'll wait a couple of weeks and see what happens. I'm just one of those impatient fans who feels like they will sellout and I will miss out.

I don't think they'll come to Florida again though. The Ft. Lauderdale show didn't see vey well at all, the Orlando show wasn't sold out either, and the West Palm Beach concert was cancelled last time around.

So, I'm sure I'll have to travel somewhere to see them...the question is where????

Hey girls!

I wouldn't worry about getting tickets until they announce all the dates and then you can decide where you want to go. The 1st Reunion concert I went to I got tickets the night before. And that was way back in April of '09 when it was still relatively new. I've only bought tickets to 1 show when they went on sale and that was the CasiNO Tour. Only then because the place only held around 2,000. Then when we got there they had 50% off for tickets to their other show. Looks like we didn't need to worry after all!

I'm here.........it seems like only yesterday that we started the first thread and now we are onto our 3rd!!! Holy cow!!!! Anyway I hope the sales do well enough for them to at least release one day near enough to me to make it worth my energy!! I would be bummed if the closest they come is NJ. Don't know how I would swing that one with hubby since I'm going to Disney for two weeks in June as well.

So we had a bit of a scare at our house last night. Braelynn, my 10 year old, comes home from school by herself this year for about 45 minutes until we get home. Well yesterday she called me crying that the door was open when she got home so I told her to just leave and go to the next door neighbor and as I was saying that I heard a man's voice and Braelynn said mom I'm just going to go and she threw the phone and ran to the neighbors house. Well I high tailed it home, thankfully I found her at the neighbors safe and sound, but sure enough someone had tried to break into the house. They must have been scared off by our dogs because they didn't take anything and nothing seemed to be moved. My car was in the driveway all day too, so whoever it was was pretty ballsy to break into a house with a car in the driveway. My whole drive home I was just praying that Braelynn was ok. Now looking back I should have called the police immediately, but I just couldn't think. It's horrible you never know what you are going to do until you get into the situation and I obviously failed miserably. I my case it is fine because she is ok, but my gosh that was the worst feeling I think I have ever had. I can't imagine the parents out there that actually have missing children or their children have passed away.....it breaks my heart to think about it.

Give your kids an extra hug tonight and tell them that you are thankful for them every day. If nothing else this will make me do that more often than I used to!!!

 

[ilovefh]

Wow third thread already! I can't believe it!

Crystal I read about your break in on Facebook. Did your daughter actually see the man who was trying to break in? I'll be honest and say I didn't sleep for days after our house was broken into New Year's Eve last year. I can imagine how scared she is!!

 

[hmdavid]

Good to see everyone settling into our new home!

Crystal... OMGosh! How scary. So glad that everyone is ok. My parents had their house broken into 2 times in three weeks a couple of years ago. Both times in the middle of the day. The first time they took their tv, video cam, DSLR camera. The second time they only took the replacement tv. The worst part is that the police think that it was someone they know because of the evidence.

 

[cruiserkaren]

for Crystal. So happy everyone is safe.

I'm thinking they'll definitely play Orlando (BSB is "from" there) and probably Miami too since those are the two biggest markets in Florida. I'm going to go to stubhub to get my tickets unless I find decent ones on ticketmaster. I think they have a system where you can pick your seats now rather than random search. I'm waiting until after the holidays because I really don't have the money to blow on tickets right now.


Crystal - that's so scary! I'm glad Braelynn is ok. How is she handling it?

 

[hmdavid]

Don't forget that venues release more tickets as the event date gets closer... usually GOOD seats. For the Des Moines concert, 7 of us were able to get seats together in the 4th row more than a month AFTER tickets went on sale. Just keep an eye on ticketmaster and stubhub... even Ebay... and you will be able to get good seats.

Thanks for starting part 3, Heather!

Don't think I'll be getting to an NKOTBSB concert this time, around, but I hope anyone who goes has a great time!

Crystal, what an awful scary thing to have happen! Poor Braelynn. That is so horribly scary. (((HUGS)))

 

[eh24fan]

Ok, so BFF got our tix this morning and she called me all excited, so I was thinking good things. No...we are at the top section of IZOD. I would have waited it out, but since she is paying, I can't say much. I'm just going to hope new dates come out and I can get better seats somewhere. I haven't been that far away at ANY concert since I saw Aerosmith in 1998.

 

[jenny105]

What was the rush about getting tickets if she was going to get the nosebleeds?? Sorry girl But hey, I'll probably be at that concert so DIS/NKOTB meet!

No idea...she said that she grabbed the first ones that came up. She's not very NKOTB ticket buying savvy. LOL I'm sad though.

This is why I normally do the ticket buying for ANY concert I go to...I want to have control of where my seats are and I don't settle for crap. In fact, I'd usually rather not go than have crappy seats. LOL

I agree! This is why I'm not asking for NKOTBSB tickets for Christmas. If I'm going to be there, I want decent seats.

The trick is to ask for the $$$ to buy the tix! Or, I might just inform Brian that he will be buying them for me when I find the right ones.

I heard on the radio what the setlist is going to be for the AMA's. It was also said that they are closing the show. I'm going to see Deathly Hallows that night so I will be tivo-ing but I might make it back in time to watch it live if the closing the show part is true.


Heather - I have a feeling my SIL will try to get me and my sis tickets. While I wouldn't be ungrateful, if they were nosebleeds, I'd be kinda ticked because she spends thousands a year to see Bon Jovi close up!

Maybe you can resell them and pick out the ones you want without her knowing.
