Yes Cynd1231, maybe you could bribe the security guys with breakfast and/or snacks and they would let you into sound check.
HB, security was less cooperative this morning but I expected that despite the fact that I had coffee for them, LOL. But they were very chatty! Four more trucks arrived overnight. They said the equipment and Eagles road crew flew in Wednesday morning and were met at the airport with local trucks and crew an they're staying here at the Hilton. But they were anticipating the arrival of 3-4 more trucks, which should be there by now. They also shared that the guys are due to arrive between 2-3 p.m. and will be in the building until after the concert. To think the arena is less than 50 feet outside the front door and we have to wait till 5:30 for entry is criminal!
Anyway, one of the security guards pointed out the door where they'll enter, winked and said, "There's a great view of that door from the Riverwalk." However, a couple of issues: the weather is changing and suppose to rain, it' s quite a hike to the right spot on the Riverwalk, and when you think about it only thing I would see is some vehicles with very dark, tinted windows pulling into the tunnel, LOL! Besides, Kate is due in around 2:00.
SO glad I opted for the Hilton since it's adjacent to the arena. Kate is staying here, and although I offered to share my room with VA, she's down the street. I hope she got a good night's sleep after that drive yesterday. That's a long haul. Hopefully we can get a few pictures at the VIP Party ... and maybe sneak in a few late in the concert. (Security told me they hired 25 additional bodies to act as Photo Police on the main floor so it's not going to be an easy feat.)
I just need a little downtime.........
Sorry, Z, I won't even try for a pic unless they specifically invite us to take them, which won't happen.
I'm all checked in. Kind of rainy out so I'm torn between using their shuttle bus tonight and walking a block in possible rain or driving. Hmmm. It's cold here, too.

VA, the weather has deteriorated since I got here yesterday. It was 94 and humid, perfect lastnight, cooler but moderate this morning. It's gone downhill since about 9:30 this morning. I can't believe the difference in the temp from yesterday.
You're welcome to come down to the Hilton early and hang.

VA, they'd better be giving us our VIP bags! If I was feeling more ambitious I'd stroll over to the Riverwalk again (since the drizzle has stopped for the moment). The guys should be arriving any time now.
I just need a little downtime.........
Enjoy VA and Cynd!!
