You know what a deadhead is, right? Well, see, way back when in the 1970's there was the group called Grateful Dead (actually, they formed in '65... but I don't want to get into all that... :). Anyone who was on Sonicnet for the Hanson concert should recall something about a certain person by the name of Bob Weir sharing the stage. He was one of the singers in GD. Anyway, there were people called deadheads who would follow the Dead around on their tours, all over the world, going to their concerts (back then, concerts didn't cost nearly as much as they do now).
Anyone who calls themself a fan of Hanson knows about their Albertane Tour last summer. Chances are, you probably got to see them play in one of their stops. Anyway, I was thinking... most of Hanson's fans aren't quite old enough to follow them around the world in a beat-up, bumper-stickered VW bug like the deadheads did back in the seventies. But I'll bet that sounds pretty tempting, doesn't it? Well, since you could really follow them around, the least you can do is read about what it would be like to go to every singe concert they did over the summer. Which brings me to the whole point of this...
Here's my plan: I'm going to attempt to collect at least one review from every one of their stops on the Albertane Tour. I'll post them all and you can just scroll down the list, click on a city's name, and- PRESTO! -you get to read all about the concert they played there. Sounds like fun, eh? But here's my problem: I don't have that many reviews. I know a very few people who have gone to concerts in different cities, and I'll post their reviews shortly. But in the meantime, if you have a review, or you know someone who could write a review, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE send it to me! Here's the information I'll need:
ºYour name/screen name
ºYour e-mail address and webpage URL, if you have one (so I can give you full credit!)
ºThe location of the concert (city, state, and country, please)
Here's what you might want to include in your review:
ºWho you went with (a bunch of friends? Your 18-year-old sister? Your mom?)
ºWhat you did on the way
ºWhat you did during the long hours before the show started
ºThe audience's reaction to AdmiralTwin
ºEncounters (with agressive fans, roadies, or- *gasp!* -Hanson!)
Be sure to also include the date and the name of the venue.Here's the list of cities where Hanson performed:
