On November 13th Scott Stapp was putting on a concert at the Peppermill Concert Hall in Wendover. Of course I bought tickets as soon as I knew. I have loved Creed/Scott Stapp for 11 years. So growing up my mom never thought I was old enough to go to one of his concerts. Well since I have "grown up" I went to a Creed concert last fall at the E Center and then Scott Stapp (he is also a solo artist) on the 13th. It was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo fun! I of course bought VIP tickets because they were really cheap compared to buying them for Creed. We drove to Salt Lake and caught the "Fun Bus." The bus cost $15 a person. On the way there we played bingo and got served drinks. It was interesting. But riding the bus you get free stuff. Each of us got a free buffet at the casino (which would normally cost $34), $5 in cash, a free cocktail (around $8) lucky bucks (to use gambling). So the bus ride paid for itself and then some. We got to the Peppermill and had some time to spare so we went and ate at the buffet and walked around and I tried some slots. Then it got to be about 5 oclock. The concert didn't start until 7. Having VIP tickets you were supposed to be there early. I was told to be there at 6 oclock. For all the things you got having a VIP ticket didn't add up. There was no way all of that could get done in like a half hour. So I told Rory we better walk down there just to see. We get there and get our tickets and they tell me I was supposed to be there at 4:30!! I about flipped out. I was so mad. I was worried I had missed meeting him. Come to find out I had missed the soundcheck and the meet and greet was about to start. So we hurry inside and the guy there tells us just to go take a seat and wait for Scott to come out. Well on my way to my seat I look up and Scott is coming towards me. I was not prepared to meet him yet and I didn't know what to do or say. I was starstruck and sooo nervous! He shook my hand and asked me how I was doing and what my name was and said it was nice to meet me. Then he takes my ticket from my hand and signs it. Then he signs a poster and gives it to me then asks if I would like a picture. So I'm still just standing there like an idiot just in la la land. Rory ends up standing by Scott. Rory told him I probably better stand by him. So we switched places and I still had my coat on so Rory made sure I took it off. LOL. I am glad Rory was there to take care of me. Then they took the picture and it was onto the next person. I bought a shirt, a beanie and a keychain. The concert started and I had front row seats where I was able to touch the stage while sitting. It was FANTASTIC! I had so much fun and it was a great show!
