Title: I am sailing to Philadelphia !
Post by: sweetsurrender on April 25, 2010, 04:34:21 AM
I've finalized my itinerary to catch 1 more show in Philly.  I'll have to travel from the west coast to the east approxiamtely I don't know 2,000 miles.  16 or more hrs of flying round trip just to catch 1 more show.  Arrange to have a friend to take care of my kids.

Damage : $700-800.  Am I crazy or what ?  It will be worth it, I know.  Front row in the pit !

MY 4th show !!

How did you get such a good ticket? If this doesn't mess up your marriage, I'm very happy for you! In Philly, not Albany?

knopfling,  From stubhub.  $300 per tix.  $390 for the flight, hotel ? Layover in Salt Lake. You should consider coming out to join me.  I'm going to PA instead of Albany.

This is how I look at it.  I'm alive, Mark's on tour.  I 'd better embrace and enjoy the moment.   :D

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks a bunch everyone for you kind supporting words.  Sometimes words like these help validate one's actions.  I'm feeling all excited and exuberant again. Remember that feeling when the pre-sale got started, and then you waited with great anticipations for your first show to start.  Only now I only have to wait less than 2 weeks.  Yeah !!!!!  

From how I feel at the moment, it's great to have a week's break from watching MK, and go back to see him again.  Feel the rush of renewed energy and enthusiasm.


Rollergirl,  Glad to know I'm not the only crazy one in this forum !!!  You just can't seem to have enough of seeing him. So, magical !!!

Pottel,  This means one more ticket to your collection.  I have the Temecula tix already scaned for you. I'll find time to email to you.

Joan,  I'm so looking forward to meeting you.  I'll meet up another forum fan singhv in PA.  Apart from seeing Mark and the band, I got to meet and keep in touch with Linda (knopfling), Marie, and singhv, Isaacc, Jerone, now YOU !!  How much more wonderful could that be to connect with other MK fanatics.  

W/M ,  Thank you.  Hope  my hubby would say that to me when I told him.  " you go girl !" :lol

Sweetsurrender, we will also be sitting in the front row.  Our seats are:  Section Pit Right Center, Row AAA, Seats 105, 107.  If you and I throw our arms around Mark's legs while he's playing, my husband will be there to drag us back to our seats ::)
