Closer...again

Today I bought tickets for three 30 SECONDS TO MARS concerts in Germany:
Nov 3 – Cologne
Nov 6 – Munich
Nov 8 – Hamburg.

I’m skipping the concert in Frankfurt on Nov 7 – it is nor physically possible for me to do 3 concerts in 3 consecutive days in 3 different cities. Call me spoiled and pretentious-I couldn’t care less. I know my limits.

There’s more. My tickets are VIP tickets. I had no other option but to go for VIP tickets-I will be alone (as usual) and I can't survive a 10-hour waiting on my own. Like I said-I know my limits.  
There.

There’s more. One of them is "Meet and Greet". I’ll actually meet them and talk to them. Can you believe it? ‘cause it still feels surreal to me-the thought it will happen for real.
There.

There’s this tiny detail I feel uncomfortable with regarding the Meet and Greet ticket. Well, let’s call it what it is-it buys 10 or 15 min of their lives doesn’t it? And that seems…insulting, kind of. But I’ll have to pretend it isn’t so. Chances are no one else sees it this way. And those will be my last 30STM concerts in who knows how long. They might as well be my last 30STM concerts-who can tell what will happen in half a year? That’s why I want to try every 30STM experience…available that is. And it’ll be an experiment on me. I’m curious to know how I will react to share the same space with those guys. Will I be starstruck and petrify?; will I burst into tears or even worse-pass out? (God forbid!); will I giggle compulsively and make a fool of myself? (I wouldn’t rule that one out); will I blush? (most definitely). The possibilities are endless but the beauty of it is that I will know-in just a couple of months.

Oh dear.
