Paul,
Well, being our first time actually in the park for the display, we learned a few things.
1. It's not a good idea to be eating at McDonald's at 9:40.
2. There are a lot of people trying to get into the arena at 9:50.
3. If someone's in your seats at 9:59:53 (I knew that was the time because we were at "sept" in the countdown) and there's a large empty area in your row, (in a better location, by the way) just sit down!
4. Sometimes it's just too hot to wear a long sleeve T-shirt, Rock Loves or not.
5. And most importantly, watching the show from Section 301 Row C (whatever number seats we ended up in) is indescribably superior to the bridge, Notre Dame St., or anywhere else I've watched from in the last 7 years.
I know that the last one is stupidly obvious, but I'm still so thrilled to actually have been in the park for the display. One thing I do know is that watching so many shows from so far away made this very special.
As you can deduce, we were very late in getting to our seats so I wasn't surprised that we missed each other. We hung around for a while afterwards and I hoped that we'd be able to connect then, but I figured that the chances were slim because I'm sure you've got a lot to do after the show. Anyway, we're coming up again for the Closing, so maybe we'll try again.
