I’m a nerd, but not in the useful “you’ll all be working for me one day when I invent jet packs” way. I’m a nerd in the “I have very strong opinions about history and literature and will yell them at you if you give me even the slightest opportunity” way. And that one does not pay well.
I’M OFFICIALLY DEAD Y’ALL
IT’S STARTING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Downed a Dr. Pepper because it’s 9:45pm my time and I woke up at 4:30am to catch my flight this morning. Thank goodness I took a nap at the hotel earlier, although I’m sure the excitement of whenever the concert FINALLY starts will be all the caffeine I need.
Obligatory light stick pic! #myBDwithGD #motteinsanjose
It’s a terrible pic because the camera didn’t want to focus thanks to the bright white “Act III: MOTTE” sign on the screen, also I am being lazy and taking it while seated, but the I am juuuuuuuust on the edge of VIP standing with no obstructions (esp when standing when I’m a foot of anyone standing in front of me, including those blue-coated security peeps). I’m estimating I’m about twenty feet from the stage. ALSO if GD comes down during the encore like he did in Seattle there’s a strong chance that I will be mere feet from him and I may just die of happiness. #motteinsanjose #myBDwithGD
I can hear music! Everyone’s cheering because we can hear the band playing Heartbreaker. Can’t be too long until soundcheck!
They’ve paused now… trying to figure out what song they were playing to guess what era we’ve made it to since it sounds like it’s going chronologically… but now it’s quiet.
Soooooooooooooooooooooon.
Wait, it’s Heartbreaker again. 🤔
Gold VIPs are getting ready to enter for their stage pics! Ahhhh!
Staaaaaaaanding. Waaaaaaaaiting. Remembering again why I’m glad I got Bronze because fifteen minutes of waiting in a crush of people is seriously testing my agoraphobia.
Just heard a cheer from the Silver VIPs so I assume that means they’re now entering. But I am too short and surrounded by too many people to confirm visually.
I’M MOVING GUYS I’M WALKING TO MY SEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!
My seat is amaaaaazing! Pics later when I’m not worried about getting in trouble at soundcheck.
