Hi everyone,
Couldn't find an existing section appropriate for this - if I missed it, my apologies! Just figured I'd type a 'few' words, introducing myself.
I know I mentioned this on Twitter as well, but thanks for activating my account! First, here's some about me - I'm Bruce from the Netherlands, my age can probably be estimated by my nickname
. I like sports, music, film and television. I'm a huge Bruce Lee fan - hope it's okay to mention that on here, even though he's someone entirely different.
Either way - I'm another fan of Haley's, wouldn't be here otherwise obviously
. Wouldn't say I'm her biggest fan or that I've followed her forever or anything, not claiming anything I'm not
- but don't want to sound like I don't want to be here either, if that makes any sense?
Anyway - I have followed American Idol since, I believe, season 8 and watched every season since. I have had a few 'favorites', but Haley was definitely one of them! It was awesome to see her get a few performances on the last AI season as well. Improved so much, though stayed the same in many ways. I'm far from musical myself and have little to no knowledge regarding techniques and all, but a few small things during her performances were just 'magical', I'm sure you'll agree.
I've been watching some of PMJ's videos and was pleasantly surprised to see Haley performing quite a few songs with them. After having watched a few videos of both Haley and PMJ, I started 'actively' following them on Facebook. Not extensively or checking multiple times per day, but just checking a few times a week if something new popped up.
Then, she announced her European tour, which got me somewhat excited. Would be pretty awesome to see one of her concerts around here and maybe even have a meet and greet, if she'd be doing them at all here.
In the meantime, I've been hanging with a friend of mine and the topic of talentshows casually came up. I had no idea she liked them as well; one of the names that immediately popped up was Haley's. Little did I know, she liked her as well! After a while, I decided to buy ourselves two VIP tickets to her concert! Now, there is a small 'thing' I would like to mention and post regarding the concert/tickets, but that may be more suited in a different section? Or perhaps I could 'ask' it here as well?
The 'problem' being; my friend got an offer to go abroad for a few months, a once in a lifetime opportunity, which she understandably took. She's already there now and will, unfortunately, be missing Haley's concert. So now I have a dilemma.
I checked around and none of my other friends can go or simply don't like Haley's music as much as me/us. Which of course makes sense as well, not everyone likes everything.
Anyway, I now have two VIP tickets for her concert. I still very much would like to go, so selling both tickets and not going isn't really an option. But selling one ticket by myself and going alone is... Well... Alone. I'm sure I would be fine, but still.
Does anyone have any input here? I've thought a lot about this and I don't want to sound desperate haha, but maybe there's a chance someone knows something/someone and can help me out.
PS: Apologies for the lengthy post - I tend to do that
