Leacy Meet's Hanson at the ASYM awards
(May, 2001)

I have been a Hanson fan since 97 their music has not only helped me through hard times, but inspired me to be a mucician as well. Something that i think i had talent for since i was little but didn't realize i should try and persue until Hanson came on the music scene. So, every since i started liking them, i wanted to meet them and just let them know how much their music means, to me and how great they really are. I never thought i would, after so many dissapoinments in those past 4 years and after all the crazy things i have done to try to.

Then finally just a few days ago one of my BIG dreams came true aside from my dream of getting signed. I had purchased a ticket for me to go see them at A.S.Y.M. a award show held for young muscians that they were being honored at. I payed a hefty $250.00 dollars to go hoping that i would get my big chance. When i got there, i went down to the stage on the floor where all the celebs were gathered. Finally i saw Hanson go and sit at their table, i saw a empty chair next to Zac and decided to sit next to him. I looked at them in awe and watched their expressions on their angelic faces. They were laughing because the mircrophone keep on turing off and the people who were introducing were having problems. I wanted to say something to them but thought it would be best not to because they were about to get up and recieve their award, and i thought that would be rude. So i got up as they left their seats and cheered them on, i must say i was very loud and excited and they must of thought i was a freak lol. After they give their speech, they left and i was very dissapointed because i didn't think they were going to leave and i didn't even get to speak to them. So on the verge of tears i went to the pay phone to call my mom and tell her to her to pick me up. Then i heard that they were still there but in the vip room and decided not to leave. I am very happy i didn't but unfortanly i was also told u had to be 21 or older to be in the vip room because all of the drinking.

So the whole night i was trying to firgure out ways with my new friend Diane to get into the vip room. Of course, nothing worked so i just sat down and began to become very upset. When all of a sudden, this guy came up to me and asked what was wrong. I told him my whole story and how i have been trying to meet them for 4 years and how much it would mean to me if i did. He was going up to the elevator to go to the vip room and with the nod of his head, motioned me to follow him and my friend quitely followed behind. We got passed the bodyguards with his help and i began to look for any site of any of Hanson.

Then i saw Zac standing next to the fireplace chatting with some guy i decided not to go up to him, because he was talking so i looked for Ike or Tay. Then without knowing i bumped into isaac not knowing he was right beside me. The guy who helped me in told him "She adores you guys give her a kiss on the check" We both began to laugh and i told him that was alright he didn't have to. I then shook his hand and told him my name was Leacy and i how i have wanted to meet them forever. I told him how much their music means to me and how they deserve all the sucess and happiness in the world. He was very grateful and thanked me alot he was very shy and a very good listener, lol since i did most of the talking. I can't believe i acted so normal, i thought i would freak then i gave him this letter i wrote for them that said everything i have always wanted them to know in detail. He gladly took it and then i asked to take a picture and said thank you and walked over to Tay. He was talking to some girl who was very much flirting with him as he was flirting back. I sat there and listened to their convo and waited for it to end. I then shook his hand and he asked what my name was in a very flirty way lol. I must say he was a very big flirt heh heh. I then told him how much their music mean't to me and took a few pics with him. Like Isaac he was very sweet but not so shy, he held me very close and i swear i probably blushed but unfortuanly the pics with him didn't come out:( Well after the pics were taken he had to leave i said goodbye to him and ike. I didn't really get to talk to Zac but i said "Hi" to him and he didn't answer because all the noise in the room. I just got to tell him nice jacket and waved goodbye then they were gone. I will never forget that day for the rest of my life they were so nice an down to earth and it was just amazing to me. I hope i get the wonderful oppurtunity of meeting them again and hopefully they will read my letter and send a letter to me. It happened so fast and i wanted so bad to thank that guy but i couldn't find him. All and all my experience was much worth the $250 i payed for and for all the people who think dreams never come true and want to give up i am living proof they do, even though i still have many more to accomplish.May Hanson be making music forever to ease my soul. Never give up Hanson RULEZ.
peace love and rock n roll
Leacy:)
