Wishes do come true.
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. I was so bummed when I found out that the backstage pass contest didn't apply to the Chickenfoot shows. I opened my e-mail this morning and almost fainted. I am crying like a damned fool right now this is ridiculous. Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU for answering my prayers. I am waiting to wake up I swear. Not only did they do a backstage pass giveaway but I f*ckin won it!! I never win anything in my life. Holy sh!t this is gonna be one birthday I will never forget. THANK YOU Sammy, Chickenfoot, and redrocker.com you have no idea how happy you have made me.
That's what dreams are made of♥
P.S. - I get 2 passes and I am going to this show alone...anyone wanna hang out with me at the show NOW??
OMG I AM GONNA DIE. No can't die..not until after Friday.
PEACE!!!!♥

So good to hear that someones dream came true. If I don`t get to see Sammy live soon, I`ll be a 60 year old groupee. And he`ll be, well......older than me!
Horoscope for 9/10/10 Even though Mercury is retrograde in your sign (and still is for two more days), the sun in your sign has empowered you! This is your time of the year to replenish yourself and restore your energy. Soon Mercury retrograde will be over, and you'll be laughing. (Albeit hysterically.)Dedication, hard work and using your knowledge will work to your advantage. Take time off to enjoy the company of someone you care for or learn a skill to help you get ahead or achieve a lifelong goal.
Happy Birthday - Will see you tomorrow Ü
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are less ambitious to make money today. In fact, you're more likely to spend your dough on luxurious, elegant items today! You might also give freely to a charity, or help others who are less fortunate. You want to use your money and possessions to make things more beautiful for everyone. Don't take on too much, or you may fall short. Spend more time researching and interacting with people who can contribute to what you are trying to do. Avoid impulsive purchases or paying too much. Don't let your insecurities limit you
IF SEPT. 9 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Singer Michael Buble (1975) shares your birthday today. You are intelligent and philosophical. (You're certainly introspective.) Perhaps because of your fine mind, you're attracted to challenges. You derive great satisfaction from achieving something difficult. You understand what the public wants, and this skill assists those of you who write, perform or work with the public. Expect to make a major choice this year. Choose wisely.Don't hold back when it is so important to get your thoughts and feelings out in the open. It's all about balance. Be ready to make choices, or you will fall behind, losing sight of your goals. There is a lot you can do to secure your future, but procrastination must not be allowed. Your numbers are 2, 7, 16, 21, 26, 39, 48.
thanks buddy!! Gonna be one I will never forget♥
Checklist:
toothbrush
soap
comb
rockin' shoes.
I'll catch you all on the flip side!!
Peace ♥ and ROCK AND ROLL BABY!!
Stef ☺
Happy birthday!!!
LOL mariachi..I bet he'd be good at that!! I always said, I'd listen to that voice sing selected excerpts from the Greater Amsterdam phone book. Wham bam.
Been waiting since Vegas to see the Foot again.....Only been since July that I saw Sammy - but I would go see him if he were playing in a marriachi band Ü
You kiddin' me? I've been ready since July.
I hope you all are ready to GET YOUR BUZZ ON!!! Ü
Holy cow Ed that's awesome!! I am hoping a whole bunch of us will be able to hang out after the show, can't WAIT to meet all these cool RedHeads!!!
Let me know if you need any local info. I live 10 minutes from venue. Will be my 61st Sammy show!
Ok did it- all good!
thanks Teach, I think I can handle "PG" LOL!! BTW...check your e-mail...
Just an FYI the link is PG rated Ü It just shows my shirt flyin on stage..lol, but no pics of me. I think there is a way to send a person to person message but I don't know how?? I will try to figure it out and send you my cell # so you can text me when you get there so we can meet up for a drink. I know that you are serious about asking him about the pass for Constance - it is so awesome that there are still people in this world that have compassion for complete strangers - although I would never consider a redhead a stranger, but you know what I mean Ü I think that even if you use that pass in Indio Sammy would still come through for Constance in Tahoe. He truly is awesome, and you are seriously about to be AMAZED!!
WAY cool Stef!! CONGRATS!! Enjoy every second of it!!
Let me tell you, it's so great to read that someone is actually looking to help someone else out, just out of the kindness of their heart instead of all the "I want" and "what can you do for me" posts. ^5 Stef!!! I hope whoever you choose to join you pays it forward somehow! ENJOY!!!!!
Oh, my bad! I thought you were going to the Tahoe Show! Well put in a good word for her!
Doug aka "CWG"
I'll make sure and check out that link at home (at work right now!!).
Yeah, I would SO love to hook up with ya in Indio!! Hoping to meet a lot of RedHead friends there.
And I am serious about asking Sammy to see if he can help Constance out in Tahoe, it'w worth a shot!!
**Hey all, just want to clarify something so no one accuses me of being rotten later on...Constance and I are NOT going to the same show, she was fully aware that me trying to get her my extra pass would only happen IF no one who was attending the same show as me was going to be able to use it. Well, I have someone willing to make the trip to Indio who is also very deserving of this opportunity, and who I had spoken to before I even knew Constance's story...I don't want anyone thinking I made ANY guarantees to ANYONE...okay? Just wanted to make that perfectly clear. I WILL however still do my best to put in a good word for her. Peace!!♥**

Some people are totally lucky, and I wanted to say congrats on the backstage passes. I too am a huge Sammy lover thanks to my hubby of 22 years. He introduced me to VH - of course with Sammy when we were in high school - waaay back! We have been with VH, without VH, Sammy on his own, Sammy with the Wabos, and don't even get me started on Chickenfoot - MAN I LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!! I don't know how but I had a little luck myself not too long ago. My husband and I flew to Cabo for the 20th anniversay and it must have been written in the stars because after our plane being delayed we were still able to get a wrist band for he Friday night show. It was totally amazing and I felt like if I would have died that night I would have gone to heaven a happy woman!! We both thought that if we could - we would try to get tickets for Sat. night too. Well our clock in our hotel was off by an hour and we almost didn't try to get in line - but we went anyways. What the heck right? We walked up to about 4 people left in line and when my husband and I got our wristbands they announced "that's it" no more !! WOW! did that really happen? It was the most amazing experience of my life. I also just saw him at the Paso Robles fair in CA, and threw my shirt to him on stage for him to sign it....ya - really, and he did! Check out the link http://www.redrocker.com/emvideo/modal/3431/425/350/field_video/youtube/... at the end of the song....I was in heaven! Ü
I always wonder what I would say if I had the opportunity to talk to him, and all I come up with - is that I would probably look like a total idiot! LOL Ü He is by far the most incredible person, and how amazing is it that so many people can come together and share their stories. I will too be in Indio with my husband and some other fellow redheads that we met in Cabo rockin with Sam once again. I would love to meet up and have a drink, and if you haven't found anyone for that extra pass you just let me know - and I think it's amazing that you will be using that opportunity to ask Sam for a backstage pass for ConstanceÜ
Stef
Great for you to get to meet Sammy at your first concert. it is a great thing you did to take Constance with you. Enjoy the Sammy and have a tton of fun!!!!
MJ
A BIG congrats ladies! I'm very happy for both of you! It's funny when I read that Stef won & was going by herself...the first person I thought of to go with you was Constance. By the way my deepest sympathy for your loss, Constance. I wish we all could see this Meet & Greet! Hey maybe they will be doing backstage for the Birthday Bash shows also! That would be really cool!
Have fun ladies!!
Doug aka "Cabo Wabo Guy"
thanks jan, not harsh at all, I appreciate the advice and good thoughts!
Constance...think nothng of it. It's rare for good things to happen to good people anymore, gotta share when you can.
Stef, I'm just blown away by your kindness, a complete stranger you don't know me. I do know one thing you are someone special, good karma flowing aroung you. You made me day today, put a smile on my face, and a little getty up in my stride. Thank you! Peace and love to you! Con
Well retrogrades can be tricky if you do not know how to approach them the right way. As far as the trip, take some advice from an old redhead who has her “Sammy moments with the man†Two thoughts of advice and it is a true saying among the REDheads “THINGS HAPPEN FOR A REASON & WITH SAMMY EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. Over the years, I had in my head the perfect way things were going to happen and the man did a 180 in giving moments I would not trade for the world. Although when I have stood in front of the man, more then once and still cannot form sentences in front of him but that will change one day. As for the things happening for a reason, do not put any high expectations on you or Sammy and just go with the flow. Be happy and cherish the any moment you have. I hope what happens this week you build upon "Forward Forward". No matter how small or grand of a situation that comes Friday don’t bum or get discouraged you keep building that foundation, having positive thoughts and don’t “F-up†Any Good Sammy karma you are going to have with this trip and more moments will follow trust me on this been there done that. I just want you to have a great time for I would not want this to be your only great moment and have to go downhill after that.
Not trying to sound harsh or bitter but I speak from true experience be open and honest and you will be fine.
Just another Libra trying to help you out.
Jan
uh, NO I sure didn't considering they weren't even supposed to be doing it for these shows!! Unreal!!
WOW!!!! Big huge congrats to you g/f!!!! Never saw THAT coming did ya? ;-)
Hope you have the BEST time ever!!!
Please tell Sammy I said Hello!
Redloves Always!!!! ♥
~JA~
goodness Jan you sure know your Astrology. As long as you can tell me "this trip is gonna go off without a hitch" I'm a happy RedHead. ha!! All this retrograde stuff sounds about right thought because this whole deal is so opposite to how my fates usually end up. Can't believe a Libra is actually helping me out for once, go figure it'd end up being Sammy. Gonna roll with it for sure.
Steph
I have no control over Mercury being in retrograde lol. When a planet is in retrograde all it mean to "Re" Redo, review, revise so far sounds like you are putting this retrograde to work for you, which you should be doing good girl.
Jan
to Janet: thanks for the horoscope, but take that part out about transportation delays...that is the LAST thing I need right now!! I got the rest handled no prob. Started packing yesterday!!!
to Constance: if by the time I get there no one has come to claim my second pass, I will ask anyone I can, including Sammy himself, if there's anyway they can give it to you in Tahoe. you have my word on that♥
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It hasn't been easy with retrograde Mercury in your sign, has it? Transportation delays, confusion and misplaced items are among things that have gone wrong. Fear not; this insanity will end by Sunday. In the meantime, work behind the scenes today to pull things together. The only way things will happen is if you make it so. Don't let financial uncertainties be your excuse for not accomplishing. Instead, find a cost-effective way to get things done
Bryan, read what you wrote this morning and I cried. Wow, you don't even know me. I'm going to the Sept. 11th Tahoe concert, decided my hubbie would want me to go and have fun for him. We had it all planned in June. Take my advice and live each day to the fullest, and love the ones you have deep in your heart everyday. You never know what tomorrow will bring. Peace
Looks like she is doing Tahoe and not Indio. I should have read more! Good luck with your search!!! I think that is great you sharing the love!
thanks Cabo checking it out now
I cast my vote(if I had one) for this lady. Read her story and I think you might agree....

Bryan
okay for anyone who reads this and is going to this show...I know that most RedHeads have to wait years for their magic moment...this is my first Sammy concert EVER, and I hit the flippin' jackpot. I am absolutely willing to share my other pass with someone who has been trying way longer than I have to achieve this dream. I would hate to see it go to waste, and don't want to give it to some random person. You have exactly 3 days to plead your case. I don't have web capabilities on my cell so after Thursday I won't have internet access until probably Sunday. Leave me a comment here or hit me up via e-mail. I have heard all about how us RedHeads (new and old) are like family and will help eachother out. I have met nothing but awesome people around here in the last few months and I know all that good energy just paid off big, so I want to share the love.
Peace!!!♥
