asimplechordMore details about the show later, but here is evidence of my complete faily-ness.
The first 25 people in line got a meet&greet with all the bands. Not one like Northern Downpour (or the Cobra show last week) where you hang out with the headliners for a few minutes and get your picture taken and everything, but where ALL the bands sit at tables and you file in and they say hi, how are you, here, let me sign that poster for you.
So. Did that. Cool.
After the show we went to the loading area to see if Zack would bring the Discos out to hang out before the convoy left Austin. We got to the area, and I was like, "Oh, look, that's the drummer from Dashboard." Blah, blah, other conversation.
Mid-sentence with other fangirl, I hear, "Hey, I know you."
It's the drummer.
Me: What? Are you talking to me?
Him: Yeah, you.
Me: Huh?
Him: You were at the meet and greet.
Me: Uh, yeah. *thinking: he sees a thousand crazy fangirls a day, and he remembers ME?*
Him: Yeah, your tattoos, I remember them.
Me: Uh... *has had more than one weird interaction in the last few days b/c of them*
Him: *looks at me expectantly*
Me: Uh...
Him: I'm in Dashboard Confessional
Me: Yeah, I recognize you. You're the drummer.
Him: I try. I'm Mike
Me: *sees Zack approaching our knot of fangirls and half-turns, cutting him off*
Him: Uh, okay then. *turns back to other girls surrounding him*
I AM A COMPLETE FAILURE AS A FAN.

Plus? I have one of Spencer Smith's drumsticks, tossed directly to me by Zack after the show. And I have a PWTs set list, signed by Tim, Tom, and DeMar.
AND I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE DISCOS TO GET BACK TO THE STUDIO, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
