Alright so I don't know if anyone knows the band Shinedown, but I HAVE A STORY
Two days ago I went to their concert, the last day of Carnival of Madness.
So their guitarist Zach does this thing when he tweets where instead of saying "a lot" like it should be, he says "alot" and it really bothers me, cause I'm a grammar freak. So this one time I corrected him, said "a lot is two words, zach." and he replied "so is blow me" (so sassy) and so now every time he does it we get into this fight and its really funny.
So the day before I went to their concert, I made this sign, and it says "A lot is 2 words, Zach" and I made it all colorful and pretty and it was really cool.
So my friend (for this we'll call him J) and my mom and I get to the concert and run to the fence, so were were in the front row, right in front of where Zach stands usually. So we stand through all the bands, I knew all of them but J and my mom didn't and let me tell you, In This Moment was HORRIFYING she is so scary and pretty and messed up...it was hilarious.
So when Shinedown comes on, they start playing and of course they are amazing cause its Shinedown. About half way through, Brent, the singer, starts talking about how Rock and Roll is a way of life not a genre and how its always been there for him and how it totally isnt dead, and Zach comes over right in front of me and sees the sign I made..
He walked over and looked at me and shook his head and rolled his eyes at me and laughed (hes adorable I might add) and of course I was freaking out. He pulled out his ear monitors and pointed at the sign and said "can I have that?" and so I gave it to one of his tech guys and he walked back and they played the rest of the show, but he kept coming over and smiling at me

And THEN (this is getting really long) they came back out for their encore and he was wearing this beat up gray shirt with holes in it and its missing a sleeve. They do an acoustic set and then the finish, and Zach walks over to me, jumps OFF THE STAGE, pulls off his wristband, gives it to the girl next to me, pulls off his semi-shirt, which gets stuck on his monitors...
then he grabbed my hands and put his shirt in my hands and smiled and said thanks for coming....!! I WAS FREAKING OUT
And after the show on the way home, I was looking and HE POSTED A PICTURE OF MY SIGN ON HIS INSTAGRAM
LIKE YOU CAN GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW @zmyersofficial IS HIS IG
