Last night at Blue Martini (a club here in West Palm Beach, FL) the Wild 95.5 radio station had a drawing for two tickets and backstage passes to the John Mayer concert tonight (8/31/08) in West Palm Beach at the Cruzan Amphitheatre. I was the lucky winner, but before I even made it up to the stage to claim my prize a girl came up to me and told me how much she loved John Mayer and that she would give me $100 for each ticket. I knew I wasn't going to be able to make the show and the girl was so insistent that I agreed to sell her the tickets right there on the spot. I went with her and her girlfriend to a nearby ATM. Apparently her friend didn't like that I had won the tickets and somehow thought it was unfair that I was selling something I won for $200. When the girl gave me the cash, it was only $120. I told her that wasn't the deal. Her friend told me that I better give them to her or she was going to take the tickets and the money and I would be left with nothing. Then the friend stood very close to me and said "What are you going to do? I'm bigger than you are and none of your fiends are here." So, I tossed the tickets at the girl and hurried off. I know the tickets are theirs and there is nothing to be done about that, but I thought that all of you going to the West Palm Beach show tonight should know that those two girls will be sitting front row and going backstage to meet John Mayer. So far I've emailed the people at the radio station and also John's email address on his blog. Hopefully someone will read it and not let these girls back stage. I don't think they deserve the privilege of meeting John after the way they behaved. What do you think?

I can't believe people would behave that way.... well, I can, but I'm still disappointed. I'm sure if John somehow found out, he wouldn't want to meet them.

I know the whole "Well REAL fans are..." saying is cliche, but honestly, real JM fans wouldn't act that way. I think the e-mails were a good idea. They shouldn't be allowed to have such a meaningful experience after acting like they did. -Jaden- I'm in repair...I'm not together, but I'm getting there. 10/1/05 - Myrtle Beach 10/14/06 - Atlanta 2/8/07 - Columbia 8/5/07 - Atlanta 8/19/08 - Charlotte

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	this girl basically got mugged and you're questioning her motives for entering a drawing. remove head from ass, please. When I was a kid, when I was a little boy, I always wanted to be a dinosaur. I wanted to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex more than anything in the world! I made my arms short, and I roamed the backyard, and I chased the neighborhood cats, and I growled and I roared and everybody knew me and was afraid of me. But then one day my dad said "Bobby, you're 17. It's time to throw childish things aside." And I said, "Okay, Pop." But he really didn't say that, he said "Quit being a fucking dinosaur and get a job."

There were lots of prizes being given away. http://www.34cwtv.com/con...c3-4f4e-b84f-4a7a40ea0f68 I didn't get any emails back from the radio station. Oh well, I hope those horrible girls enjoyed the show. Thanks for all the kind comments. I was upset about it today and it was therapeutic to share the experience with all of you.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	I would have punched her in the face and then ran like Hell with the tickets and the money, LOL. People are WACKO sometimes. Once at a show I caught a pick, left handed I might add:) and some psycho comes up to me and BEGGED me to sell it to her for $100. For a pick. I thought she might blow a gasket if I said no, but I did anyway. In fact, I said uh no, my husband actually plays guitar and it will come in handy. Everyone I was with literally laughed in her face- sad. Mel-- "When someone asks you, A penny for your thoughts, and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?" George Carlin

If you got the money, who really gives a shit? That's $120 you wouldn't have had otherwise. -sam "People never get the flowers when they can still smell 'em."

I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that would have been much more deserving of those tickets, and not so tacky, bitchy, or ruthless. Sorry you ended up in such a bad situation, but couldn't you tell right off the bat how crazy they were when they first came up to you? I'm kinda thinking it was bad judgement on your part.... ~Monica "But I'm gonna come back and rock it so hard you're not gonna know what happened!" - JM, Lido Deck Show

Maybe the point of the thread wasn't really what WE could get out of it and to watch out for crazy bitches?? and Yes, it was bad judgement to go to an ATM with complete strangers. People make mistakes, let's not crucify her for something that is yesterdays news now. I think she was trying to warn us to watch out for these people and hopefully shame them . Under no circumstance is any of what happened OK. Mel-- "When someone asks you, A penny for your thoughts, and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?" George Carlin

I personally try not to advocate violence, but you should have thrown down or at least walked inside the place the ATM was by. And in those got to GTFO moments, I would have booked it or at least tore the tickets beforehand. You were very generous to them for 100 a ticket too.
