My Meeting With Journey & Bryan Adams----

[perryhollic]

Journey was in Dallas for three days in 1983 for a 3 night concert, and a Local radio station had a contest, if you won you got to bowl with Steve Perry, Jon Cain, & Bryan Adams. I won, along with about 19 other people, While they were warming up, we got to take pics, from behind the barrier, but when we got to go down there with them, no camaras were allowed, I always assumed cuz Steve had Sherrie with him, I don't know and I didn't ask him. Only 2 guys from the press got to be down there to take pics. I just had these scanned so you could see them clearer. sorry there not any closer, but I didn't think at the time to "Sneak" my camara down there, and glad I didn't try it, cuz one girl did and was thrown out. So here they are, and there all very nice people BTW. I think the beginning part I was in just AWE of getting to meet them. But LOVED every moment!!

This Pic-- Sherrie and Steve are on the side(Sherrie is wearing a pink & Black striped shirt & that's Steve's arm kinda in front of her), Bryan Adams is in the white T-Shirt and Blue Cap (right in front of the guy in the plad shirt) & Herbie is in the blue shirt by the cop--

And another----



After the bowling, we got to go to the concerts too, all 3 of them, we ended up getting to meet the whole band, and there all great!!
and Back then, you were searched before going to concerts here, NO camaras allowed, (they wanted you to buy there pics-Not take your own-ALL the bands were like this back then, we were all searched before getting in to see Robeert Plant too. And I was in the 2nd row of that one, just think of the pics I could have gotten!! Sorry there not any closer but I did have to follow the rules, and I was just so happy I got this oppertunity to meet and bowl with them!!
I will treasure that 3 days for the rest of my life!! I remember it like it was yesterday!!
I hope you enjoy them!!
Hugs!!
