What I got at Knott's Berry Farm....

I had this made because I have a Melissa Etheridge wristband at home and I wanted a Philip Sayce one so that I could help support one of my favorite artists by getting more people to like his music. The wristband has a treble cleff on the left and an eight note on the right. I really love it and I hope that I can help get Philip more fans....

Philip's show at the Brass Elephant

OMG!!!!!! I LOVED IT!!!!!! Philip was AWESOME!!!!! When we were walking up to the Brass Elephant I was excited but calm...but when we walked in and I saw Philip and in my head I just went *THUD!!!!!* First we took pictures....Philip was being goofy... then I got to talk to him for a little bit and I gave him the Jade necklace that you see him wearing in the picture he was so touched... He said "Now I feel like I should give you something in return" and I said "Just being here and seeing you is enough" ... then he came over to autograph my Silver Wheel of Stars CD and my Philip Sayce baseball hat... Then I interviewed him (The picture is from when I was interviewing him...I forgot how to spell spirituality so he was telling me how to spell it) ...then he started the 1st set.... before he started the first set he said "I want to dedicate this first set to Dakota for her birthday" and right then I started to bawl... I was about 3 feet from the stage sitting in a chair in front of Philip... near the middle of the set he got off the stage and went to play in front of some other people to my left and then he walked in front of me and played to me from about 12 inches away....then he walked to some of his friends and played for them....then he got back onstage.... after the first set was over Philip picked up his beat up white guitar and started to show it to a guy...then he walked over to me and said "Want to hold this and play it for a while?" I was like *nod* O.O...lol.... then he walked away leaving me with his guitar..... Near the end of the break Philip came back over and looked really excited and said "You got to stay the whole night without anyone telling you to leave!!" Then we talked for a little...then he started the 2nd set.... I still had his guitar in my hands.... then when he was done I went up to him and gave him his guitar back... he gave me some of his Picks for my guitar.. then he went to hug me but then he stopped and said "I'm all sweaty so..." and I said "I don't care!" So I gave Philip a hug and said bye... I was In HEAVEN that night!!!!!! The whole Band said Happy B-Day to me too..... This is a night that I will never forget... Getting to see one of my favorite artists live and getting to talk to him was amazing! Philip is such a great guy! I also got the set list... well not in order that is... just the list with the songs that he might have played that night....

RENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG!!!! My mom took me to see RENT when they came to the Bob Carr. She knew that I LOVE the Rent movie so she got me tickets to see Rent as a stage production. So we get there and we go in and I noticed that.... It was the SAME EXACT stage that Melissa played on when she came here.... I had to fight the urge to rush the stage...LOL... So anyway, my mom got me this backpack that says RENT on it and it came with a book that explained how Rent became a Broadway show. I LOVED IT!!!!!! Rent was so cool. I want to see it on Broadway... but I guess I'll have to wait... So then when it was over we start to walk towards the car and we see several people run towards the stage door so my mom looks at me and says "Go ahead." So when I walk up I see people with pens and the programs...so I turn around to my mom and I ask if she has a pen...of course she doesn't...stupid me... Anyway the lady in front of me drops her eye liner so I pick it up to give back and then I think "Wait...WRITING UTENSIL!!!!!!"...So I move closer to the stage door. Then Krystal Brown (Mimi) comes out and I get her autograph and I also got Declan Bennett's (Roger), Warren G. Nolan JR's (Tom Collins), Jenna Noel's ( Mark's mom and Others), Marques Walls' (Drummer), Trevor Nelson's (Bassist), Donavan Dolan's (Stage Production Manager), and Brett Rothstien's (Head "lead" Audio) autographs on the book that I got with my backpack. Then Donavan comes out and says "I can only take 8 people" and I raise my hand and I'm thinking "Take 8 people where? Can I go? Whatever it is can I go???" So he picks 6 people and then he points to me and another girl and says "Her and Her." The security guard wheel's around and goes "HER?!?!" And Donavan said "yes her"... so I GOT TO GO BACKSTAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got to see what it looked like backstage and looked so cool! I got to see the Fender (Squeels) gutar the Roger plays and I also got some of the backround of Rent. When I come out my mom says "What did you do?" And I almost scream "I got to go Backstage!!!" So while me and my mom were on the way home she was talking on the phone and she says "You can land a 747 in this girls mouth!" So that was my point of view on going to see RENT...
