IMPORTANT: SMEONE TELL ME HOW TO PUT THIS UNDER THE CUT!! AND By the way guys, the reason I posted this wasnt so I could bore you with every detail or so I could brag, it was because a lot of you have been wondering about meet and greets. If you dont like the way that I posted it or wrote it then meet them and write a better one but I'm doing this for you guys because I would want someone to do the same if I hadn't been to a meet and greet yet. And I took a ton of the photos and videos just so I could show you guys so if youre going to complain that kinda sucks.


got there at around 350 and then got my ticket and stood in the meet and greet line with someone I met on this community because im from the SF bay area, so I met kevin and his cousin who are both super rad. after a long wait, their tour manager asks us for our IDs and then  we walk on the field which is wehre the football players practice, get to see paper route practice and the andrew of jacks mannequin play with his dog. taylor goes by on his bike and i yell "TAYLOR" and he smiles and says hi to me. i finally got to talk to him!

then their manager talks to us again and tells us somethinga bout "talk to them, dont be shy they want to be treated like normal kids....group picture...just hang out". so we go backstage, see some bands eating, this is all outside by the way, paramores riot! warped tour tent is back there for some reason. so we go back near some picnic tables and near some huge trailers which serve as their dressing rooms and a foosball table. he tells us to line up.

they come out and i look up at them and i do a double take. this is it. theyre really here [and ive already met them before so i honestly didnt know why i was so nervous] . hayley and josh come up to kevins cousin to sign her things. hayley says :"hey how are you?" or something like that to me and suddenly my nerves completeley disappear. which has NEVER happened to me before when meeting them or any band/singer. i have them sign my ap magazines and all of htem look over the picture of them on the back of AP, which has the picture of them in the RIOT! hoodies becuase theyve nver seen it before. jeremy asks me what im holding and i tell him that i made them collages and that id give it to him later and he says "ooh i love collages! " and he talks to me about how he thinks the guys on the cover of AP have insane eyes, theyre like this intense blue [jeremy has really pretty eyes too!]. And me and Kevin were talking to Jeremy about how Kevin plays air guitar to his bass, and I was saying how I don’t see how he does the big head bang thing in “all we know” I was like, “I always try to do it but I cant!” and he said something about it hurting haha. heres a video of them signing autographs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIs1FdPEaxM

so then im standing out of line just watching them sign autographs, totally not realizing it and hten the tour manager asks me if i want to go first in taking group pictures. i say sure and i get to put my arm around j osh and jeremy and josh puts his arm around me. so i was happy of course haha. heres a video of them taking group pictures: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgF1Rk0J7YI

after all those then we get to do whatever we want for apparently 10 minutes. they wantto play foosball so i went and got a spot next to another fan. josh and another fan are playing against us. we totally lost but i was totally myself around them, yelling and getting into it and jeremys like "its ok you can do it!" so funny. and the girl next to me is like no were gonna have such a big ocmeback. Josh must have thought I was crazy, Im a sore loser and he made it seem so easy, probably because I cant block for shit. 

heres a video of us: in the beginning you can hear jeremy telling me "its ok, youll get it" haha and then me throwing my hands up in the air becuase josh got a goal before i could even block him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E12gwj5LEpw

then i went up to zac and gave him his collage and he was excited to see a pic of him and ajax and i told him i came from 10 hours away and he was appreactive and i asked him if we could take a picture and hes like "yeah.." all distracted because hes looking at the collage haha, it took him a while. 

and then i go up to hayley and tell her that my friend made  avideo asking two questions: 1 will you marry me 2 arent my muscles big? so she makes a video and the most important thing to pay attention to in this video is to WATCH JEREMY , its hilarious. Watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYw2KvDWgcw hten i give her the collage and shes excited and i point out the different parts in franklin that i found and she was excited to see H20 and NFG on it and was like "im shocked that were not on the side of the stage in that picture" and then shes like "this was our favorite warped tour" pointing tohte logo of lucky 13 and i tell her that yeah it was amazing. and also points out that the picture of her hugging the woman is of ajax's mom . and she says "im totally gonna hang this up!". 

then i go over to jeremy and give him his, he loves it looking at hte picture of the car engine and stuff and we take 3 pictures, the first one was a video and hes like "well thatll be an interesting video then" haha and then i wasnt sticking my tounge out in one so we took another. hes really the chillest guy, my favorite person to talk to.

 then i go over to josh a litle nervous becuase i have a major crush on him and have never really spoken to him before. i was like “i dont know if you still like underoath, but I got you a pick and a keychain of theirs haha”  and showed him the collage and that my fave pic was of him and his sister and hes like "ooh yeah me and mys siter!" and then hes like "yeah i love underoath!" and he thanks me and stuff. and then we take a piture but we couldn’t find anyone to take it so  he takes it but he still puts his arm around me. yay. and then its getting towards the end so i go up to josh and ask him for a hug and he says sure and then im like "im from the bay area and we always make eye contact at shows so make a face at me!" and he slike "ok im on that side" and points to where he usually stands. so then josh says bye to us and then we leave. see taylor again as we walk out.

before paramore even came out to greet us, people were being let in but we managed to easily get fifth row before it started and then moved up to third and then right before paramore i moved up to second row. everyone was good. esp jacks but i couldnt see because of all the tall ppl. paramore started off with born for this, josh came out first and just when i thought he couldnt get any hotter, he could. his hair is longer now and i loved the shirt he was wearing, so every two seconds girls around me were screaming at him haha. SPOLIER: they play my heart, decoy, misery business, emergency, we are broken, when it rains, fences, here we go again, hallelujah, for a pessimist, thats what you get, pressure, let the flames begin, crushcrushcrush, and a cover of the other hallelujah. they went straight from my heart into decoy -my two favorite songs from them easily that ive never heard live before. and we did the whoa-oh-oh's. and it was soooo amazing seeing hayley get so into it. during emergency Josh looked over at me [we always make a ton of eye contact, its funny] and I pointed to myself sticking my tounge out and then he stuck his tounge out at me so i was sooooooo happy haha. during we are broken taylors playing the xylephone or something and jeremys playing a drum, hayleys playing piano and josh is playing bass. soooo amazing.  she talked about love146 and while shes tlaking about that she says “maybe you saw our ad on the back of AP”, and she said that because she saw it on my magazine, because Kevin said that she didn’t say that when he saw them on Wednesday. and zacs drumstick hit me in the head so i caught it and now i have a set of his drumsticks!

AND ALSO ABOUT MY HEART: Hayley said the reason they played this song on the tour is because of the live journal community wanting it so its rad that they really do read this and take into account things we say.

Paramore=best band ever and worth coming from 10 hours away just to see them. it was easily the best night of my life. I just want to thank Paramore for changing my life so much since I started listening to them and learning more about them, I honestly don't know who I'd be without them. 

heres the links to pictures with them,as well as a few others. the first one you can see andrew of jacks mannequin. he was playing with his dog. if you want to see more add me on myspace: myspace.com/carolinex3 but message me and tell me youre from LJ:
