I finally had my Billy Corgan Moment
Wednesday, August 20, 2008 - 3:02 pm - dad_says_its_ok
We had tried before to meet the band after shows, but had never been able to...until Knoxville. We hung around with the little crowd by the buses, and then, THERE HE WAS. Billy in his hoodie. I could have just melted. He walked down the line apologizing for not signing anything, taking pictures, or shaking hands. My hubby, who is the same height, was able to get his attention and tell him that we had seen the band play in Hammond on my "33"rd birthday. Next came my "BC Moment", as I will forever refer to it. We were face to face. Billy smiled, said, "I'm glad you came - thanks", and held that smile and eye contact. Of course, I was completely *StarStruck* and could only say thanks and smile back. Oh well, what do you expect when you've been "in love" with somebody like that since high school.
Jimmy and Jeff came over too, and they are REALLY nice. Jeff didn't stay too long, but Jimmy hung out - he posed for a picture with me and gave me a hard time about asking for two autographs. He's very cute too.
Anyway, we had a blast. Rocked out at two great shows and got to meet Billy and Jimmy. Wow - can't wait to see what's next!

...how excited I am about August!!! We'll be in Hammond (on my 33rd B-day, no less ) and in Knoxville! I never thought I would be fortunate enough ever again to see the Pumpkins twice in one month (had a blast last year at the Orange Peel). I can't remember the last time I was this excited about my birthday!!!

got to leave work a little early - long weekend coming up - beautiful weather - this is great....ALTHOUGH, usually when I get really excited about something, something bad happens (not to be a downer) - so wish me luck! Hope everybody has a great weekend!
