Red Rocks

[midland]

Hi Veronica:

I just wanted to let you know that I finally met Jason when Chicago played Red Rocks in August. My friend and I noticed a group of fans waiting by the band's buses, so we decided to wait for a few minutes before we left the park. Sure enough, a van pulled up and Jason and his son, Jason Jerry, got out. I think that his son was also off to the side of the stage during the concert. It must have been hard for a little boy to sit through that long show, but he was very well-behaved.

In any case, when I saw Jason, I darted through an opening in the fence around the buses, and appeared a little too suddenly--I think I startled him. (Note to self: Do not go running up to celebrities, especially when their children are present, lest they think you are a deranged psycho. : In an attempt to convince him that I'm a civilized human being, I shook his hand and introduced myself.

He talked to the fans for a few more minutes, but in the meantime, I darted back out through the fence.

The show was great. We danced a lot--"Shining Star" and "25 or 6 to 4" got everyone on their feet.

Awesome thanks Dana for telling us on how you met Jason at a Chi concert, and about his son being present. That's soo cool for his son to be there to see his son play. I like that. He will have fond memories for sure..

You were soo lucky to meet Jason at the show. Well atleast you didn't do worse..

Thanks for your story.

Oh, Midland, that was so awesome that you managed to see Jason after the show in Red Rocks. Well, I think your reaction is normal!! I know that many other fans would make these unique, crazy things, in order to get close to their favorite artists!! I nderstand you, because I don't know how I would react, if I was in your place. Maybe I would stay like a mummy, all shocked, all quiet...maybe I would go so hysterical...I don't know!!

It's so nice that Jason II, I mean, little Jason Jerry, was with his daddy, and that he saw how good his daddy is at his singing and bass playing!!Mmm...well, maybe Jason is already used to people having those reactions. when you are such a great artist,and have so many fans, you can expect every kind of reaction!! ;D But I'm sure Jason saw that you are really a lovely, sweet person, and that you have a calm ing personality. It was good to read that he gave some minutes to his fans. i have faith in him telling some things to fans about the XXX recording process...and maybe, one day...we will have the great miracle of Jason posting one line or two in forums!! ;D

I wish your experience could repeat once more, Midland!! Thanks for posting such a nice story here!!
