New to BN...

Post by theITguy »

Hey Everyone,

I'm one of the newest members of BN. Why did I join? Well, I work for CSC and as I'm sure most of you know, we do crowd management at concerts. I wasn't too crazy about working Saturday's show, as I never really listened to JB before, but it turned out to be an amazing experience. I was assigned backstage to protect Jimmy's dressing room. I watched the sound check, I listened in on a little acoustic jammin' in the band's dressing room and I got to watch the show from the side of the stage. I was pretty impressed. I also talked to Jimmy a couple of times and I gotta say, he's one of the nicest artists I've worked with. He was very polite and friendly. He treated us like family. I guess, I gotta go out there and pick up some of his albums.

And not just for the stories... naming yourself "theITguy" will
probably get a ton of computer questions directed your way. :lol:
