^ Very nice of you. I'll bet you made that guy's day---if not more.

 

About Rosie O'Donnell...well, you can have her.

Didn't see Rosie or Meet Cyndi either... something was going on and her and her manager were throwing diva fits... had to do some quick thinking to get the talent area organized... I ended up escorting Darren Hayes from Savage Garden around and they didn't have anything ready... I had my roommate bring insect repellant to the venue because the artist area had mosquitos and Darren was allergic. He sprayed that stuff on heavy saying "Ah, this is the best thing!" I fell out.

 

Then I had to run to Home Depot to get citronella candles and more repellant for the area after Darren went back to the hotel to change... then security wouldn't let them back in and I had to run to across the museum to get someone to let them in! Then I had to run to find out where they were going to be at... then escort them into VIP for a press photo session. Luckily I had opted to wear a white jogging suit and tennis shoes instead of the suit!

 

Luckily I had bought the extra bottle of repellant because Darren left the other bottle at the hotel! So he spayed himself down again before he performed. Oh and I had lit the candles away from the stage to handle the bugs before he went on.

 

After that I escorted them back to the limo and Darren and the manager thanked me for salvaging the disaster they could have been in and they drove off. The manager did give me his email address so he can send my roommate (whose bottle of insect repellant Darren took) some promotional material since he is a big fan. I managed to be in a photo with him, but I have to track down the photographer to email me it.

 

Afterwards, word got around the staff about what I had done (including everyone wanting to borrow the repellant ) and they thanked me and let me off my shift early so I could go into the party... and the VIP area. But my feet were killing me so I just wandered in a small area and chatted with a few people.. and drank a bunch of red bull!

 

I told the event coordinator that next year, I'm escorting the headliner for all the work I did and he agreed. Especailly after I brought out the flaws in logic with the "VIP meet and greet" with Cyndi and no one directed the crowd and everyone charged her and they cut the session short. I told them they needed to announce the directiions on how thing were going to go before they brought her in because the people were either high or drunk at that point. When I moved Darren through the crowds I was pushing the people to one side to let him through. "Move boo. To One side! Pay attention sketchy boy!")

 

Then one of the directors told me to go to the afterparty event (which I didn't pay for) and ask for him at the door. I got there and the line to get in was wrapped around the building. I asked for the director, he came right out and got me in! I got in before VIP!

 

So I had a good but tiring weekend.
