Bring your sharpies folks. Looks like the lobby will have room for a meet & greet.
And be kind to some of the older people there too! LOL

So I'm on my way to work this morning and all the sudden I see a couple of buses behind me. I slow down so I could follow them and it appears it is everyone from INXS. They are all staying at the Intercontinental Hotel on the down on the plaza. Since I work on the plaza I drove by the front of the hotel and the back. All of the buses were the same and I assume that the LH bus is not the same as the ones that INXS are using and they probably both are not at the same hotel. Since I had some time I did a drive by of a few other hotels on the plaza and didn’t see any other buses. It was a disappointment when I realized it was all of the INXS people. But at the time I did have the windows down and LH playing loud, everyone with INXS had to know the LH fans are here and ready to represent.
See you all tonight..........I think we are going to get downtown around 4pm to eat , drink (probably at Tanners at 10th & Broadway)and be merry and then head over early to the Midland to support the LH!!!

[avalon]

Flipside, thanks for the info. LH's are probably staying at a Motel 6 !
Maybe they don't have the big budget that INXS does!

[kcflipside]

I'm leaving work early today and will drive by a couple of the hotels over on Main St. just off the plaza and see if they are at one of them. If they arent then they are staying downtown close to the venue.

the bus is green and the tag on the front says "007" and they have a black trailer attached to the back for carring thier equiptment. The tag number on the back of the trailer is BE-6177. Who said stalker? I am not a stalker! Somewhere Jodieca posted a pic of the bus when she followed it for 2 hours.


Good luck finding them!

[kcflipside]

Thanks Vicki, I remember reading about their bus being green so I was looking for it this morning. Maybe when I head home I will see it and if not I will look for it when I get downtown to see if they are around the venue.

[kcflipside]

Heading home now to get ready for the party. I just got a bonus for the day which my wife might kill me for but then again she will also love me for it. I went onto ticketmaster just to see what kind of seats were left and amazingly I just purchased RC ORC ROW CC SEATS 3-4. We were already on the floor, but no where near row CC, I think we were in L ORC ROW I. Maybe I will take the old tickets and see if anyone wants to upgrade what they have for $30 or so.

Well, see you all tonight, we will be sure and stop by and see all the LH fans out front before the show.

I would give anything for those tickets... but I'm on my own with my girls, my little hammerheads, hubby is on a trip. I'm only a few hours away and would like to hop in my car and head on over! After seeing them last night I will never be able to get enough!!

Have fun tonight!

[nlt]

Okay, I just heard a 5th song of the MC songs sung on RS. Good omen to meet him?....I hope so!!!! Anyone else about to bail out of work early and try to find that dang bus? I so want to!

[kcflipside]

They are staying around Crown Center/Hyatt area or close to the venue downtown. I've been by the rest of the Plaza hotels and no sign of them.

UUmmmm, before you go selling your tickets you may want to make sure of which ones are the best. Look at a map of the venue itself cause usually floor seats are a-z and then it starts with the double letters... AA, BB, CC and so on. I just don't want you to sell them and then realize that you had better tix the first time. HAVE FUN!!!!

[avalon]

might be worth a try: When you get there ask the box office for an upgrade as they usually have some good floor seats left just hours before the show.

Where are the reviews from the show last night? I've been looking on tour talk....

[kc2012]

The show rocked, but the crowd was LAME! Marty ran all the way out the back of the hall and appeared on the balcony, which was cool. We hung out with the guys after the show, so we didn't see INXS. The guys seem a bit tired and ready to be done with this tour. Hopefully they go out with somebody better next time.

[suzy]

A LAME croud? Are you guys going to post reviews in tour talk?

[nlt]

I'll get my review up in a sec, but in the meantime you can check out my story from the concert last night pertaining to the White Pants Chix Club, it's under Marty-White Pants Chix Club.

Be back with more in a bit!

[suzy]

I already read that!! Think I can stay away from there??

[nlt]

Here's my review, events, etc for the KC show:
If you haven't read up on my story for the White Pants Chix Club, you'll probably want to check that out first, it's under Marty. Otherwise, I'm just going to jump in after the mechanical failures, picture selection and almost getting in a car wreck.

So my husband and I finally leave and we are of course running late b/c he wants to get something to eat (damn hunger pains). I'm too nervous and excited to eat of course. I call Avalon to let her know we are running 15 min late or so and she said she was too. Okay, we get downtown and of course construction has the road I want blocked off and the one way streets are pissing me off. We get to the parking garage across the street and Avalon calls. She says the guys are around the corner, they had to stop an ATM (too funny) and she didn't want to go up there by herself. I tell her I'm just across the street and I'll be there. I find Avalon, an absolute doll!, and we run into lhcrazy and her daughter, more dolls!. We head over to the buses and they are no where to be seen. Avalon and lhcrazy talk to a roadie, Randy and give him some stuff for the band. So we move on since it doesn't look like we will be having any luck seeing them. Lhcrazy had asked my hubby and I if we need better seats, she got ones even closer and offered us hers. What a sweetheart!!! We were going to be stuck up in the balcony (which wouldn't have been a complete waste, more on that later). This has totally made my night getting to be up close now, we were going to be so close now! We get seated and I see some Sisters, say HI, acknowledge their garters and now I'm just waiting w/ anticipation. Avalon starts to wave me down, she's just across from us on the other side. I go to her and we walk up to the sound board. She starts talking to Brian?, and asks about a meet and greet. He says nope, no meet and greet, security doesn't want to stay overtime since it takes so long. I'm about to panic when Avalon starts to work her charm and magic and Brian says to meet him back there at the sound board when the shows are over, he'll see what he can do. I am in awe of this woman! Supposedly there was going to be a small meet and greet. I'm ecstatic, tell my husband and am just bouncing out of my chair practically when the sirens start. Then the pounding starts and Bobby is making my heart pound out of my chest. This man is amazing! I loved the way Marty slinked onto the stage, what a captivating performer he is. All the usual comments on their concerts apply here. Billy was on fire, Dino was Dino, Bobby looks like animal when playing those drums-arms everywhere and hair going crazy, I loved it! And what more can I say about Marty that hasn't already been said, AMAZING! The one thing that amazed me was how much his blue eyes really stuck out when he was up there. I don't have the set list, but lhcrazy's daughter got it, so maybe she can post. Nothing prepares you enough for a live performance from these guys. And thanks to that fact, my husband is finally on board and slowly becoming a fan in his own right. Marty did take off running down the aisle and out the back door while singing The Tunnel, we could hear but couldn't see him and then poof he appears at the top of the balcony. It was so awesome! A marathon as he called it. I just can't imagine the looks on peoples faces in the lobby as he ran by! Unfortunately, it was all over way too soon for me. I am disappointed in my town of KC though, I don't think they showed enough love for the guys and there were too many people sitting! I stood the whole time, singing, yelling, etc and there were groups of people around that would just not get up! I think for future shows, I'll go somewhere else to enjoy it w/ more LH fans. I'll leave out the INXS show, I'll just say the "band" sounded like they always did, great!
Well, during INXS I came out just to see if LH might be milling about, but didn't hear anything or see anything. Guess I missed it when they came out the 1st time after their set. Went back in and sat for the rest of INXS and then met up w/ everyone by the soundboard waiting for Brian. No Brian, No Brian and I'm starting to lose any hope of meeting the guys. I'm starting to really feel like this is always my luck, get a glimmer of hope and have it shot down! They make us leave the theater, they are kicking us out and I'm just devistated! But then....

Gotta take a breather, getting long winded.

[nlt]

We end up going w/ lhcrazy and daughter around the venue towards the buses. After a little while, I see Bobby coming up between the buses and someone starts yelling Dino. I'm like, NO, that's BOBBY!!! He comes over for a few secs, talks to my fellow mc.orger's and then leaves. I of course stand there and say nothing like an idiot! I'm getting worried, but lhcrazy told me just to wait it out, they will come back out. So we wait and finally Dino comes out. He's talking to the mc.org people and I'm just dumb strucked. Can't find a word to say, don't want to be pushy, even though everyone else was (some rude people). I see Billy come out and he's kind of hanging behind Dino so I go over and get his signature, super nice guy and my husband and him chat for a couple of secs. I finally get back to Dino and again, can't say a word. Finally get out that I want him to sign my cd insert and then at that point, I may as well have chewed off my own tongue b/c it would have made more sense than what I was saying. I felt like a total idiot and pretty much bailed after that, besides others were trying to get to him and they were making more sense. Bobby is being surrounded and I'm pushed to the back, again! Then enters the part from my the other section about my spotting Marty and then being trampled on. So while I'm waiting for my chance w/ Marty, I notice everyone kinda bailed on Bobby and he's right there behind me, so I ask for his sig. He's signing and I'm thinking, say something you fool!, but nothing. He must have noticed b/c he looked up w/ those adoreable eyes and that boyish smile and asked how i was doing. He was so sweet, he was trying to get me to calm down and talk to him for a sec while I could. I told him it was my first show and i was just blown away, speechless really. So then I end up back towards the Marty Party going on. Insert more of the other blog here from WPCC. After the whole White Pants Chix Club thing, I kinda blank out. I ask him for my pic and he does so. I noticed that he was very hard to hear, like he was losing his voice and he seemed so tired. But he perks up great for his pics and puts on his best smile. When we took the pic, I tried my best to soak it in, but all I could focus on was that I was touching MC's coat. My husband and him talked, shook hands, he was very polite and couldn't have been more accomodating. I'm just glad that w/ all the hassle to get to him I did b/c shortly after my pic w/ him he went back to the bus. The guys seem really tired and homesick. Oh, I fogot, when I was waiting for Marty, Bobby was right behind me, again! and said something to catch my attention. Of course I turn to respond and he is right there. Again had a talking issue, someone helped me out b/c I couldn't think of the word "headliner", so thank you whoever you were! And we chat for awhile about coming back to KC, told him sorry there weren't enough LH fans here and that I hope to see them again soon. He said they'd be back and some other things that I don't think I should put in case it would be spun as negative by some. I'll just keep that to myself, but I was really shocked at how honest and open he was. He did mention shooting another video, but wasn't sure when and where. I told him they really need to get one out to the rest of the public, he of course agreed and again, more comments that I better not post, don't want to get in trouble. So that pretty much sums it up. I didn't get as many pics as I wanted, but I had an incredible time. Also, we did see Ted, it wasn't the mean personality last night, more like a little hyper Ted personality.
Thanks to Avalon, lhcrazy and daughter, we had a blast and I'm so glad we got to meet you! My husband and I were really impressed to see a mom and daughter have this great thing in common and to share with each other. Just shows how great these guys really are!
Now my w/drawals have started and I am pining for another show......HELP!!!!!!!!!!

[Hoot]

Thanks for the great review! And again...I love the pic!
