Guess I'm suppose to write a "review" of the shows, so here goes..haha
Asheville:
Caught a bit of soundcheck, nothing really happened after that until the show. I will say IAMDYNAMITE is a great band, check them out! Had a photo pass for the first three songs, got a few good shots, my camera was being difficult or maybe they were just moving around a lot, or both..haha. Then I went side stage by Tom, then side stage by Cone (Pretty sure I split some guy's beer on the way there, oops). Sometime after the set, dunno when, I went back to the extremely small backstage area to talk to the guys a bit, Steve made fun of the Southern accent and we just kinda talked about music and stuff for maybe 30 minutes, I think D would have talked longer but Yoshi (their security) said it was time for us to leave.

Charlotte:
Missed soundcheck, but ended up in the Green Room commons. Hung out with Larry (guitar tech) and the crews for most of the time. Tom was chasing Jay with paper poppers, so that was entertaining. Pretty uneventful till the show. I watched side stage (Tom's side) the whole show. There was a backstage ramp leading to the stage, but when Underclass was over, D came down the side stairs and patted me on the shoulders. Then around 12:30 I guess? I went back to the Green Room, I was suppose to just stay for a minunte, but D told me to sit and started showing me all his playlists and we talked about all kinds of stuff (like Nic, I now have a new respect for him). Then he said to come on the bus because he wanted to show me Blood In My Eyes acoustic. (AMAZING). And so I didn't end up like Nic, I left at 1:30 since they were heading out at 2am to Alabama.
The End.
