Ok, I have finally come back to reality after the most amazing experience of my life!! Of course I was excited to see Queensryche, my favorite band, when they came to Myrtle Beach. I was excited about meeting new fan club members and reconnecting with old friends. But the real excitement didn't start until 1 hour before the doors opened and Amy L handed me a pair of meet & greet passes, AND jury selection passes!!! For the non-Queensryche-freaks, that means we got to be part of the show...on stage...WITH THE BAND!!!!!! For one whole song, we got to stand on stage as members of the jury in the second set of the show, Operation:Mindcrime II, for the song Hostage. If that wasn't thrilling enough, we got to meet the band after the show. And they were very gracious and talkative and took as many pictures as we wanted. Scott Rockenfield(drummer) remembered us from when we set up our Rockenwraps account as a dealer. Geoff Tate(lead singer) said he wanted to make sure he had time to come by and check out the store the next time he is in town. Now, from most rock stars, I would just brush that off as being polite. But these are guys who follow through with what they say! And you think that's the end of my excitement? Oh no, my friends, there is more yet!!! On the Thursday morning after their show here, I got to spend 30 minutes on the phone with Geoff Tate interviewing him for my friend's website!!! It will be posted on anarchymusic.net on Monday September 18th. If you want to see pics of the concert and meet & greet go back to our website and click on photos. That will take you to our Photobucket page and click on Queensryche Sept o6. Rock on!! --Amy & Amy
