    I attended Lana's show on May 30th for Tinley Park. I called the venue on Thursday May 28th. I asked the venue if we were allowed to camp out. She strictly said no! There's no camping out allowed at all around the venue. I asked if we could camp out nearby somewhere else. She said that is not her problem but mine. So I still decided to camp out. I already had a group of 6 people that were going to meet me there to camp out. This is the first venue that was strict on camping out. I mean Lana's concerts is all about camping out. I was disappointed. Well we finally decided to camp out near the venue. I was in charge of the Lanasconcerts snapchat and I told people we were lined up. I was 2nd in line. More people started showing up. So it was around a group of 20 people. We camped out for at least 6 hours when the staff from the venue kicked us out. So we were worried and confused on what to do. A girl that was with us said we all can go to her house and think of a plan. So we decided to keep the line going. We started a number system. We thought it was fair since we showed up first. I think fans would understand and cooperate with us. Which they did. So we were thankful. I just had people who had silver and regular pit to take a pic at the venue once they arrived and I would write their name on the list. I had over 100 people on the list. Fans were upset we couldn't line up at all till they opened the doors at 5:30. so our solution was the numbering system. It was chaotic. I never want to experience something like this before. 
     
    The weather was ugly!!! It was horrible!! started pouring and it was freezing cold. We were waiting to go in ouside for 2 hrs in the freezing rain. Such a nasty day. But Lana made up for it. 
     
     
     
    One of the people in our group had a flag that was given to her. 
    all the 20 people that were with me through this experience signed the flag. 

     
    I made Lana a scrapbook!!!!! 
     
     
     
     
     

     
     Here's the full video of my scrapbook!!!
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk696dFHEyk
     
    Lana noticed me and my scrapbook!! 
     
     

          When I screamed I love you Lana and she looked right at me and smiled so big! She pointed at me and my  scrapbook and said is that for me? I said yes. She just smiled big!
    here's a video of it.

    The show was overall amazing!!!! The weather was freezing. All of us in the pit were wet and cold. We were shivering. Lana was cold too!!! She didn't get to calm down after off to the races. She went to the other side after cola and took like 3 selfies. I was disappointed but when she was about to leave she didn't forget to take my scrapbook.
    She turned to me and pointed at me to security to get my scrapbook.

    You assumed a lot in your response. No one ever said I expected a date out of thin air or by snapping ones fingers. I am not an unrealistic person with unrealistic expectations. I have been going to concerts since 1984 - I understand logistics. I don't need a smart ass giving me their version of it. I was just wondering since we hadn't heard about a new date yet after 2 and a half weeks, I was just worried it might be easier for them to cancel than reschedule.

    I'll be there! I have pit tickets, but not silver/gold VIP. Just regular front pit tickets. I know getting the very front row is out of the question for me, but I still want a good spot so I'm planning on camping out Friday night. This is my first time camping/waiting the night before so if any of you have advice it's greatly appreciated. I'm also camping for Marina in Indianapolis on Wednesday...

    I got there at 1 a.m! I waited for 20 hrs to get front row! I attented the House Of Blues show back in August of last year. I only waited 12 hrs for that show, & I got to meet her, talk to her, get an autograph, & take a pic with her. This show was very different of course. I had to wait double the time. I checked on twitter and saw people waiting in line since 8pm. I rushed right away and drove to the venue and got in line around 1am. I was 7th in line. I met some new friends there. I even saw people that were there for the house of blues last year too. It was so freaking cold and it was raining. The good thing people were very nice to hold our spots to go warm up or use the bathroom at starbucks. I met really nice people. Around 10 am that's when they seprated the people who had credit card entry and will call tickets into 2 lines. I was will call! I knew Will call people were going to go in first since my friends from the Atlanta show said that will call people go in first. I kept it to myself so I won't make people mad. As of that time I knew I was 3rd in line! I was happy! I just knew that when the doors opened, it was going to be a giant mess. I was right. As soon as they got the will call people to go in. I printed out my confirmation order so i can just go right in without a problem. I left my bag and my jacket prior to go inside since security will take up more time searching your bags. I only had my phone, my picture of Lana & I from last year. I wanted her to sign it! I went in and I gave the people my order number and my I.D They took at least like a min trying to find it. Then I got my ticket and then the guy took his time to scan it. I saw people just running and walking past me. I was like hurry up and give me my ticket. As soon as he gave me my ticket. I started walking up the stairs to the stage. I hurried my butt but I didn't run since they said we'll get kicked out. I walked so fast. I saw people already lining up at the front barricade. I walked even more faster and found a spot right on the right side of the barricade in front of the stairs that Lana came down from. Yes I had front row! I was relieved that all those hours waiting in the rain and cold, it all paid off. I get to see my Lana front row. So many people who waited long hours with me had problems with their tickets. The staff couldn't find their names or thier tickets. So a lot of people walked past them and some didn't get to be front row. I felt so bad. Once inside, more people started forming behind us. The crowd behind us were wild. They were calm before lana came out. During the opening act. A few people fainted and some got into fights. Security took charge and got them out ASAP! The crowd were crazy. Once Lana came out it turned into chaos. People were shoving and pushing. During the begining , the crowd were crazy. During the last portion of the concert people were trying to cut me and my cousin. We of course teamed up with the people who were with us in front row, we didn't let them through. They were so eager to go front row. I'm sorry but if you want front row you had to wait 20 hrs like me. I wasn't going to let anybody go past me. It was a mess. Security spotted the girl who was trying to go in front and told her to stop and move back or he'll grab her and take her out. The security for this venue did a very good job in handling the crowd. The girl stopped trying to cut. I still had to keep my elbows spread out during the concert. I enjoyed Lana so much! She did incredible!!! Once National Anthem started playing, the crowd went nuts. As soon as she came down, everyone started pushing us against the gates. Lana came down and went to the right. She took a good 5 mins there. I took my picture of us that we had taken last year. I wanted her to at least sign it for me. Lana started walking to the front of the stairs and stopped right in the front and started waving to people. She spotted my picture right away and walked towards me. She was right face to face. I gave her the letter I wrote her. she grabbed it and put it under her arm. She looked at our picture and she signed it. She has this glow that I can't explain. She's so beautiful!! As soon as she finished signing my picture. she signed a few more by me. I had my phone out in my hand. She grabbed my phone and told me lets take a picure. She said was I ready. I said yes!! She took 5 selfies. My face came out funny in them since everyone were pushing me forward. She handed my phone back. I said thank you lana, she said you're welcome and told me I love you as she walked away!! I was the only she took a selfie with in that section. I was so lucky!!! All that suffering I had encountered waiting was freaking worth it!!!! I got a chance to see lana front row, touch her, get an autograph and a picture with her! It was incredible!

    Sorry if it was long but I wanted to share my experience with everyone!!
    Here's my instagram. I have vids and the pics I took with Lana at the show!!!
