Moving Foward (an Otis Blog): 04/01/2009

Yes, I did I went to the New Kids on the Block concert this Monday, they were at Wells Fargo Arena. The main reason I went was because JabbaWockeez were going to be their opening act and if you know me from this site and outside of this blog I'm obsessed with them. Totally! I have their mask, shirts, hats, and gloves. So I know that right on the ticket it says no cameras and no recorders but I couldn't help myself and brought both anyway... I was kinda upset because as they were performing we were in the middle of finding our seats and I try to record as much as I can of their performance, I was so excited I could get some of them and took very little pictures because I was relying on recording them as much as I could...

So this bastard came up to me and grabbed my FlipVideo camera and deleted all my files telling me that I will not have it out again. I was like yeah whatever you say... We found our correct seats and so I was like hey since we're in the middle of all these people let's go ahead and record some more I mean I really wanted some footage of the Jabba's up there since I'm a big fan and all... So I had a lot of great footage and was happy that I got most of it. After they were done I was thrilled I got some great videos and can go home happy, I don't need to see New Kids... I wasn't really that big of fan of them anyway...

There was this long break after the JabbaWockeez performed and waited for New Kids, and we just stayed in our seats until it started. Finally they came on my cousin and friend was having a blast they loved the show and took lots of pictures on my camera I borrowed from my other cousin, Rosie. I was continuing on recording with my FlipVideo. Later as the show went on they went on a stage that was in the middle of the audience and performed a little there to work the crowd that had not so great seats in the front. We were all standing on our seats now and I was so damn close to them like literally seeing each wrinkle and sweat, even though I wasn't a fan it was kind of exciting that we were that close to them and they performed for all of us. I recorded as much as I did on my FlipVideo I was so excited I got this recording because it was such great footage of them singing. After they moved back to front again we got back on the floor and I put my Flip back into my pocket then someone grabbed my arm tightly telling me to give him my camera... SHIT! It was the same FUCK who deleted my stuff the first time! I was so mad at myself for letting myself get caught the second time and the same guy... (I guess I do stick out like a sore thumb since I was in a crowd filled with women. I say the ratio was around 1 of 100 were guys... So my night turned really sour from that on and I was just wanting the show to end right there because I was done, I put on a smile for the rest of the night to not ruin my cousin and friend's fun. So now, I went to this damn concert with only really planning to see the JabbaWockeez and now with no video proof of seeing them perform...

***Next day I went to my CelebrAsian Entertainment Meeting and my friend Robin went to the concert too telling me that during the break between JabbaWockeez and New Kids, the Jabba's were in the Hallway doing a signing and taking pictures... FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! I had to say that I cannot believe I wasted the time just sitting in my seats when I could've had my shirt signed and taken pictures with them. How messed up is this? Well I'll try to move on from this, I just wished I can redo this night all over again I would totally change everything we did. Hopefully when I move to California I would have more opportunities to check them out live.

Here are some pictures of some of the night... oh and I got like one shot of the JabbaWockeez on stage and it was really dark so it's not even a good one... UGH!!! (To see them all Click Here)
