An Experience at Live From the 10 Spot
By: Samantha..Flirt718@aol.com

May 5th 1998~The best day of my life!

The MTV Live @ the 10 spot concert started @ 8 o'clock. I got there around 5:00. I stood outside 4 2 hours until we finally got in!! B4 that like when we just got there I had 2 go 2 the bathroom really, really badly so I went over 2 some police officer standing outside & asked him if he knew where a bathroom wuz. He pointed 2 1 of those dirty Manhattan garages and sed there is 1 in there so me, Lauren, & Michele went in. There wuz this group of dirty workers so we were debating and fighting over who should go over 2 them & ask where a bathroom wuz. Lauren winded up doing it. They laughed and whispered something and then the guy brought us 2 some weird place. We waited 10 minutes cuz some guy was using it we kept knocking on the door saying hurrrrrrry up we hafta go 2 the bathroom out here. When they idiot finally came out of the bathroom he is like, "by the way this is a mens room," but u know what? I didn*t care! I had 2 pee so I ran in & came out then Lauren & Michele did the same thing.

Outside on the line waiting 2 get in we talked 2 all these girls including this JustAGirrl person that found me becuz I mentioned something about this webpage online and her and her friend heard me so they eMailed me! Cool HUH? But n e wayz.. These girls started 2 sing MMMBop & then there were those police 'do not cross' blue things they put in the street so every1 was 2 short 2 c 2 the front of the line but me & my cool self stood up on 1. I saw the door & everything! I wasn*t up there when Hanson got there, but stupid Lauren wuz! Melissa put her on her shoulders & she saw Taylor(!!).

Finally the line started moving up but when we got 2 the front of it they took my camera (.. no pics of Hanson.. I did getta pic of the new MTV VJ Jessie though, but no Hanson.) N e wayz.. When we got in we ran all the way up front cuz it wuz suppost 2 b first come first serve. But the guy up there said they changed it and u had 2 sit wherever ur ticket sed. So we showed it 2 him and he sed well it looks like ur up here!! We went nutz!! I wuz like oh my G-d! He sed calm down. The little mosh pit thing in front of the stage was crowded though. I was overwhelmed. Free tickets right in front of the stage?? I wuz freakin' out!! Ne way b4 the concert started Ike, Tay, & Zac kept sticking there hands out the windows & every1 was screaming!! Then this stupid girl and her 3 foot tall mother were like 2 me, "r u gunna b holding that sign up during the concert?? Itz not fair that the others can*t c." Does the little bi*ch think I care if she can c? Umm no sorry. U can*t c itz not my problem. LoL.. No, actually I let her in front of me so she would shut up!

I saw Walker & Diana like 100 times!! I kept waving!! They looked @ me but they didn*t wave back 2 any1. Finally the lights went out and I grabbed my friend Michele & was screaming.. They all ran out & every1 was goin nuts. They sang (I think this is the right order) cover of Gimme Some Lovin, Thinking Of U, Where*s The Love, River (From MMMBop), Weird, Speechless, I Will Come 2 U, A Minute Without U, MMMBop, & Man From Milwaukee. The whole time or almost the whole time I was up on Melissa*s shoulders holding up my 'I Luv U Tay' poster and 'I luv u Zac' poster!! The best part iz Hanson looked @ me like 100 times!! Zac was staring right @ me when I held his poster up. Tay was looking @ me when I was like clapping or something. Ike gave me a look 2!! It wuz great!! THEN Taylor kept wiping off his sweat with this wash cloth and guess what?? He threw it in the audience!! I swear the girl RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME CAUGHT IT!! They let me & my friends touch it!! I touched Taylor Hanson*s sweat!! It was really funny cuz there were these Russian people. And when the girl caught the towel the Russian mom went over 2 the girl & said i*ll pay u 100$ 4 that. And the girl sed 'no' & the mom was like 'alright fine.' Then the Russian little girl with her Russian accent sed 'u should of sed 1000$ u idiot.' She called her mom an idiot!! The mom was like im sorry im sorry! It was 1 of those thingz u had 2 b there 4!! That poor girl.. 2 bad she didn't touch Tays sweat like me!! THEN Zac threw his drumsticks in2 the crowd & some girl caught those & she let us touch those 2!! THEN Zac took the water from his water bottle & threw it in2 the crowd & some got on me! It wuz the best night of my life. Taylor was wearing this red shirt. Kinda like that 1 he wore when they sang Christmas songs on ABC 4 that special & then he took it off & every1 was yelling yeah baby take it all off!! After that he had just a white T-Shirt on!! Ike looked like he was wearing a suit @ 1st but then he took the jacket off and his outfit was like gray & black. Zac had on this light blue or gray T-Shirt. At the end they did this Weird acapella thing. It was great!! I love Hanson more then ever!! In conclusion.. It ROCKED!!
