Rockstar

Friday night turned excellent very very quickly. Dirt (theMan's cousin) told us to meet him at the Metro at 4:30 to hang out because his band, Society 1 was playing that night. We got there but ended up fighting with security since we didn't have any passes or anything. I finally quit asking those power hungry peons and waited by their van until someone came out. Thankfully, persistance paid off and after his sound check, Dirt came out (with the help of his lovely and sweet band mates) and led us backstage into their dressing room.

It was sorta funny because with all the high security they were throwing at us, once Dirt got out there and made us follow him back, NO ONE stopped him. Of course, he's about 6 feet 7 of black metal brick wall too.

Anyways, we hung out in their dressing room for a bit, met some other bands and caught up with Dirt. He's such a sweet guy, it was nice seeing him. Later we checked out the show and spent some time with him at the merchandise booth.

I'm so glad we waited around to see him. I know theMan missed him a lot and even though it was fun being rockstars backstage, it was nice to hang out with Dirt and see him in action. It makes me excited to move out to Cali (he lives there when not on tour) and comforting to know some family will be out there to welcome us.
