I GOT TO MEET MY FAVORITE BAND

First, if you aren't familiar with this amazing band:

ALRIGHT. So check it, me and my friend are super pumped for this concert. We start by making a stupid joke, what if we held up a quesadilla during the song Quesadilla? That would be wacky. Or, like, if we held up a toy hammer for the song Fixin', or a styrofoam sun for the song Anna Sun...
And then we did. We brought all these ridiculous props into the club, and worked our way up front. We told these guys next to us what we were doing when they noticed the sun with 'ANNA' written on it, hallowed out with all these props in it. They got really excited and told us they'd lift us up over the crowd when we did it. So, for each song, we held up this absurd item that was only tangentially related to the song they were playing, and we ourselves were lifted way above the crowd so the band couldn't ignore us, and they laughed. Eventually this guy came up to us and said, "What are you guys doing after the concert? ... Make sure you wait around."
They ended up approaching us and were really enthusiastic about what we did. They loved it! We have a ton of signed stuff from them, AND THIS:
I LITERALLY COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING DAYS OF MY LIFE. I CAN'T CONTAIN MY GIDDINESS AND HAD TO SHARE IT WITH VGF.
