That's all nice, Sway...but the pressing question: Did you have a camera in those great seats?



(Glad you got in...)

walked right thru the door around 9:20 and saw Throbby, turned around and saw Billy Gibbons right behind him! Thought for sure he'd sit in... (Gibbons, not Throbby)

scored a sweet seat in the 5th row of the loge right over the stage. Amazing seats. The band was so close!! Bumped into my old pal Charley Drayton and had a surreal moment as we were talking during the band intros and Keith gave a shout out to the Wino's

amazing time. Each song was better than the last. sweated my ass off from freaking out and singing the whole show

best stones show ever!! (and I've seen some great ones)

worth every stupid penny and the ulcer and stress I had for days worrying how I was gonna get in

the Mick/Keith moment during FAE alone was worth it. It was easily the coolest moment I've ever seen. That is definately making the film!





I'm thrilled for you, Sway!!!

Where in the fuck is Wong anyway???
I would have paid to just stand out in front of the Beacon to watch him pull this off, rotflmao

I want details!

"WAKE THE FUCK UP, WONG!"




OH...his chiba twin and myself called him on a three way a couple of hours ago. Heavy Chinese accents by both of us. LOL.

He's on a train home.

Didn't sound too alert!!!!!!

Thanks, Voodoo. I was hoping you'd be able to break away from work and take a look at the photos.

It was an amazing night!

jaggergurl I never thought I would say this.. but I want to be Chritina Aguilera, at least in that photo..

SO HAPPY ALL HAD SUCH A MAGICAL NIGHT!!!

throbby Saint Sway! It was good seeing you in the lobby last night. I was trying to locate luxury when I saw you. Can you believe she managed to be given another "extras" wristband and was placed on one of the side wings of the stage.

GTRM! It was nice meeting you outside last night, I just wish the circumstances could have been different.

It almost seemed like the old horndog wanted to dry hump her. She seemed to take it all in stride though, afterall she was the one not wearing any pants.

The loge has some of the best seats in the house...even better than most of the orchestra seats. You got incredibly lucky! Good on ya, Sway, I was hoping you'd make it in!

Thanks, Sway. I was in the upper balcony. I would have loved shooting photos from your seat in loge!

I was on the first row of a raised section, so I could shoot over the heads in front of me.

I turned down being an extra because I wanted to bring in cameras and drink with the Couchies before the show.

well played.

Saint Sway this moment was the highlight for me. The ovation it got was awesome. I think we've all been wanting them to share a mic again like the old days. I think its been like 24 years since they last did that.

everyone understood and got the moment. Huge cheers from the crowd

I wish Lady Jane was there. She would of lost it

And I was praying I'd run into you inside. I just thought that with all the people who couldn't come due to the date change that they would let some of the faithful in.

Damn, GTRM....I was hoping!

We were very distracted upon entry....worried about Mr. Wong getting in.

I should have spent more time looking for you and Bitch.

Aw, give him a break. He deserves a bit of a pout after his Stones experience over the last 7 days.

thats awesome! We needed some real fans in that section! Thank god she was there to represent!

It was so phony and staged looking with all those models dolled up down there. Thats the area that all the Shidoobee winners should of been placed
2nd November 2006 01:42 PM
throbby I do sympathize for JB and all he's been through of late.

The reality is that when it comes to Stones shows he has lived a charmed life. Very few fans have seen the number of shows he's seen in the seat locations he's seen them from.
