Thanks for letting us know how the evening went, luvaj10.  It sounds like you had a really good girls weekend!!!  Were you able to get anything signed at the end?  I have been lucky enough to get a couple of CD covers signed when I have been up to the stage at the end.

Hi AJ Texas Fan, No, alan did not sign anything at the end of the concert this time.  It's o.k. I did get some wonderful pictures (thank you security!).  Best of all is a close up picture of Alan smiling right at me!  I have never gotten a photo
like that before.  Something I'll treasure now forever!  My dream is a meet and greet - maybe next year!

Diane:
So glad the meet and greet went well!!!!!!! Sounds fantastic!  Just to be able to stand next to him!  I was VERY
grateful for the front row seats!  This was a dream of mine - always seeing the front row winners in the newsletter
for years!!!  Our seats were in Section C, the right side, as you may know.  We were all the way down at the end of the row with 2 huge speakers in front of us.  Our view was partially obstructed because of the speakers being so tall. I would never complain about it - I am totally grateful for these tickets.  Alan did not walk to our side probably because of the speakers.  I think the security guard felt sorry for us so she told me to just walk up to the center and take his picture.  She then told me to be ready to go to the stage after 5 oclock somewhere because they would be letting the first 7 rows up to the stage.

Diane:
Thx. for all the info!  We will definitely try Patrick's. 
Oh my god - you must be so nervous.  We are leaving at 12:00 today.
Should arrive around 4.  Maybe just introduce yourself to him and
thank him for his music, etc.?  I don't know - I am sure I would be
speechless!  I'll be thinking of you.  I you see 2 stunned women in
the front row 40ish - thats us...I'll probably be sitting there in
shock!  I can't wait to hear about your meeting!!!!! Good luck!!!!!

Hi - no I have never been to Meadowbrook.  Thx. so much for the heads up regarding bringing a jacket.  I wonder
what the weather will be like on Saturday night.  I am assuming the seats are Section B - I won't know until I
pick up my envelope that evening.  YOU must be SO excited!  Oh my gosh, I would be speechless for the first
time in my life if I met him!  What are you going to say?  Where are your seats?  We are staying in Tilton.
Are there restaurants around the venue or should be eat in Tilton?  How is the parking at Meadowbrook?
Do we need to get there very early?  Thx!

Parking at Meadowbrook isnt bad, a couple of large dirt parking lots, the one on the right is closest to the venue but usually fills up early.  They do come around with a golf cart and offer rides but its really not a long walk.  There is a restaurant right down the street from Meadowbrook called Patricks, its a popular spot to go before a show because its so close.  Here is the link..  http://www.patrickspub.com/index.php 
You dont really have to get there too early, there are lawn seats so people sitting up there will arrive early to get the best spot but since you have the FRONT ROW you will be all set.  If your tickets have a VIP stamped on them you can go into the VIP bar, its closer to the stage and the bathroom line is shorter!  When its time to leave if you are not in a hurry go into the second stage tent and wait about half an hour for the traffic to clear then you can just drive right out! Oh and there are some good outlets in Tilton if you feel like shopping!   http://www.tangeroutlet.com/tilton
I am very excited and nervious, I have no idea what I will say to him, any suggestions???  lol
