The Roxy

[cjspas]

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! I ended up in the front row in front of Dino. I won't write a long review tonight but I will post the few pictures I took. I decided to enjoy and experience the front row rather than spending all my time with the camera in my face! I'm so glad I did. I know there are many others who took great shots but here are a few for those early risers!

First of all Mig Opened and sang with just a guitar player or guitar and piano accompaniment. He sounded great. His Album is supposed to drop August 22. Some folks got CD samplers. I didn't.



Then the LH rocked the house. They Played Casualty! And it sounded great! (i'll let someone else do the whole set list!--I'm in a blur.)

Sometimes even in the front row--you can't avoid the hands!



This one was a little dark so I enhanced it so you could see Bobby better. which is why the color is a little odd

[cjspas]

That's all my pix that turned out. As I said I really wanted to be available to get that eye contact with Marty and really enjoy being there--and I did!

I'm off to bed now. I'll post more later today!

Left most of the folks at the rainbow room--but I have clients in the morning and needed to be alert to see them. Sigh sometimes making adult decisions just spoils the fun!

The Roxy was nice. Groovy show. Muy bien. Dave Navarro is amazing. Steve Issacs...holy shit! Oh, yeah those hammer boys were nice too.

Good morning. I cannot even see straight as I have not went to bed yet. We partied like rock stars last night so I have basically been up since 530am YESTERDAY! I am at work now which totally sucks. Ok I know get out our violins and cry me a river right?

Ok so since my first message board was teammigayesa.com, I must give a shout out to those ladies and Laura Alber the webmaster. She allowed me with her and others to go inside the Roxy ahead of time and meet Mig again (squee) and gave me a sample album of his before it comes out on 8/22. Very sweet. my camera died right as he posed for a pic with me and his manager took one on his own camera and gave me his card to email for him. Nice, nice people. Al Ortega the Prof. Photog was there. He took my 1st ever photo of me and Mig on my camera in April of this year.

So after that I was lucky enough to stick around and hear This town for LH soundcheck whee, they sounded great.

I was also like CJ front row in front of Dino's side. Mig's short set was fantastic, he is Jodie's new boyfriend, he sang to her and grabbed her hand and kissed it.

Anyhow, LH were on fire. This was the best show ever. Sorry to say better than Vegas and although shorter, better than Pearl room for me. I cant remember the set list right now but they were so energized and Dino came over and messed my hair all up during the show-funny.

How lucky were we all to have heard casualty live? Is that the 1st time they've played it? I have it on video although the sound is horrible. I can truly say no matter how many times you see them--they never cease to amaze...the greatest show on earth.

Then we hung in the VIP area with the rockers--priceless photos were taken of us with Lukas, Toby, Phil, fun, fun. Patrice is very nice too. My 1st time seeing panic channel and they rocked it pretty hard. I can now see why they are squee worthy too!

Backing up here, Jodie is the ultimate street teamer. She got an mc.org bracelet on everyone--Mig--you'll see it in my photos, all the rockers, Steve Isaacs, I think she even got one on PPOD! That I cant remember.

Photobucket was down this morning so I couldnt get any photos loaded--I got home at 530am and went and showered and came to work.

Anyhow we all hung at the rainbow afterwards. Had the booth next to the pc guys. T lee and just about everyone was there for awhile. Thats all I got for now. Photos to come later......
but one word: Phenomenal. Nice to meet you Treedom and Treejay!

[chitowngirl]

Amazing, just amazing!! Thanks so much for sharing, Diva! Sounds like it was a fantastic night! Glad you were able to hear Casualty! And to party with all the rockers! How fun!

And Jodie - there are just no words. Girlfriend, you rock!

[penny74]

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!!!! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! (Sorry, couldn't help it!)

Diva! Sounds like a fabulous night! I would be seething with jealousy if I wasn't so happy for all of you. (Okay, I am seething with jealousy anyway.) I can't WAIT to see your pics!

Mc.org bracelets on everyone? Kisses from MiG? Way to go Jodie!

Nice to finally meet you too, Diva! Gads - I had 2 hrs. sleep - you had none - are you falling asleep at your keyboard? Nice review considering all that you've done in the last 24 hrs... ;D !

My semi review is 2 threads down and I was in the middle of DLing 200 pics - 1/2 of which didn't turn out because the whirlwind we know as Marty is nothing but a bluurrrrr. Glad to hear that Jodie got the wristbands on everyone - she had an armful for sure.
What a night...Marty AGAIN was on fire - the Roxy was a So Cal inferno already but he completely ignited the place! If anyone wasn't a fan before the show - they got hammered last night.

PB is still down - more pix to follow....
