Where do I start? I was a blockhead way back in the day......and once a blockhead, ALWAYS a blockhead. My room was covered with NKOTB pix, I had the sheets, the pillows, the CD'S, ect ect....I had it all.....saw every concert......let's just say I was a HUGE NKOTB fan. I was a Danny girl with a splash of Donnie on the side.
So......I found out on June 25th, dreams do come true! My girlfriends Autumn and Melissa paid my way to 4th row of their concert. It was A-FUCKING-MAZING!!!! Our friend Vicky from Toronto knows Donnie (very well)....she texted him and told him my story. But sadly, no response. She texted him 4 times, no response. I was okay with this because I was just happy to be out with my friends and excited to see them in concert.
After the concert we decided to drive around and wait at their tour bus area. Then we spotted Johnny......Donnie's assistant. Johnny was riding around on Donnie's scooter. Too cute. So I said what the hell, I only live once, and decided I was going to talk to Johnny and see what was up. Luckily, Johnny is super cool and stopped to talk to me. I told him about Vicky and he knew exactly who she was. He told me he was on his way to talk to Donnie, to hold tight. Johnny said when I see Donnie's silver tour bus pull out, to not make a scene and walk over to it. That is just what I did. Johnny hopped out, saw me, asked me to give him a second and walked back in the tour bus. My knee's started shaking. I was thinking, is this really happening??? IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING???
Well.....it really happened.....Johnny opens up the bus door and said come on in Rachel. So with my knee's trembling, I climb up the stairs. There they were, both Donnie and Danny. SAYYYYYYYYYY WHHHHHHHHHHHAT????? Both of my men were standing right before my eyes. I said hey guys, Donnie grabbed me, hugged me, and said "YOU ARE GOING TO BEAT THIS" I said FUCK YES I AM!!!! He said You kick that cancer's ass Rachel... I told him funny you should say that, bc that is exactly what I say on Twitter all the time #kickingcancersass.
So I set down, played with his dog, chatted a while, and well, my dream came true!!! We took pix, gave hugs, then he asked if I wanted to go to breakfast, so off to the waffle house we went!
That is really all I can say......we exchanged info and numbers and I think I am somewhere still lost in the clouds. It was one of the best nights of my life!
This is so awesome! I guessed some from tweets, but I don't know NKOTB, so I didn't know the names 'n stuff. Fun, fun!
