today was a pretty damn good day for Shannon & myself. Around 3pm, Shannon got a message that Dave was filming his new video in Bryant Park (which is a block away from our office). Doesn't matter that it's drizzling out, we throw on our jackets & case the park. The band is nowhere to be found. Back to work we go. About an hour later Shannon gets ANOTHER message that the band is back in the Park. This time it takes us about 5 minutes to think it over...but we throw our jackets back on - and off to the park we go. I'm SOOOOOOOO GLAD we did, cuz look who we ran into:
I have to tell you that I was a bit nervous to go up to Dave, cuz I didnt want to seem like a groupie stalker. He wasnt surrounded by a ton of people, just a few - and he looked at us & smiled...so I went over & said hi.....and boy am I glad - he was the NICEST GUY! Didnt make either Shannon or myself feel goofy about coming over. Even offered to take our picture (which I'm so glad Shannon had her cell on her, cuz mine was dead).
Yup, today was a damn awesome day!
