[youtu.be] Anaheim It's Only Rock 'n Roll--The Wave! @ 1:09
I made eye contact w/ Mick and said, "Hey!" and waved, and he kindly reciprocated while singing "Would it help to EASE MY PAIN..."
See it?? That was nice! I liked it!
And just to recap, it all happened this way: Met a German guy at Las Vegas MGM taking pics in front of Stones ad. He took our pic and we took his. Asked if he's on any fan sites. He said IORR. I said, "GREAT!" He hung out with me and my sis. Gave me his email. We all had $85's and no one got the pit, to our dismay. Sis and I were straight across from stage up high. I realized I missed half the show by not being able to see screen behind stage. I longingly looked into PIT and wanted to go to another show. New friend invited me to Anaheim to share his other $85. Paid for a friend to come along with me, since I just met this guy briefly, and he was basically a total stranger. Three of us spent the day driving up coast to Santa Monica Pier. Got back in time to get ready for concert with little time to spare. Things started to unravel. Stuck in traffic. Friend couldn't find ID to pick up $85's. More traffic. Friend extremely frustrated, coming all the way from Germany for 3 shows, and we were going to miss opening, and driving aggressively and dangerously. Somehow I felt a Peace about it all, and that we were in God's Timing. Stop and go traffic. Very last minute. Trying to park. Ticket pick-up place for $85's moved! Frantically trying to get in before show starts. Found ticket booth. Got the PIT! People telling us show about to begin. Running down stairs into PIT while Stones coming onstage with Get Off Of My Cloud. Into PIT, Keith's side. Patti in the wings. First 3 rows roped off. Room inside. Security guard told me no. A girl inside invited me in and told me to put foot over and nodded her head! Third row PIT!!!! OMG I could see their faces! I could make eye contact. I could see them interact. I could not believe it! That was the best night of my life!
