This is my experience from April 28, 2003:

It was my first concert and I was so excited. We found our spot behind the VIP people. They really made me angry! I wanted to be closer. Anyway, GOB was about to go on and this evil demon lady came on the big screen and she was kind of creepy, then GOB came on and they rocked. In the middle of their performance, the kicked Craig and brought David up. My friend Kelsey and I were screaming and going crazy. He was awesome. After GOB came…Simple Plan!!! YAY! They were so cool. Pierre did "Ice, ice, baby," "In Da Club," and "Lose Yourself." Pierre didn't know any of the words for "In Da Club," while the whole crowd knew every word. Simple Plan was done, so we raced up to meet them. We found our friends in line and waited. We were next in line and the stupid security freaks cut us off. My friend Alyssa told us to stick around and we did, and we saw Pat in an elevator with David's girlfriend. I waved at Pat and he waved back. Then another friend of mine tried trading her "smart hat" for Pat's hat, which was a little special. We yelled "We love you Pat!" and he said, "I know." Then Simple Plan came down the line and got into the elevator. I have an awesome picture of the backs of everyone's heads. LOL. Well, Simple Plan left and we decided since we didn't have any Advil, we didn't want to stay for Avril… so we left and laughed at the people on the radio who said they left after Avril was done to meet SP, and how they had Avril withdrawel.

	i saw them on December 17th which was a couple weeks ago. We had pretty suckie seats, but they rocked anyway. Sooo...there were other really crappy people there like jessica simpson, mya, eek...but we just came to see sp. Well, they played almost every song on their album and they played "Happy Together" from Freaky Friday, but then it was over. So as my friends and i were walking out i said, Becca...look over there, and to our left was chuck standing right there in the middle of the lobby. We were talking to him and stuff and got a really good picture that i am going to scan soon. It was a lot of fun. these other girls that had been there for a while said pierre and seb had come out earlier, but we were in watching Maroon 5...thats okay though...im going to the MXPX/SP concert in NYC in Feb. so im excited. Laterness...
