Going to Vegas to meet Maynard

Everyone knows I'm a huge fan of Maynard James Keenan, lead singer of Tool. Currently he is working on a solo project known as Puscifer....Maynard is playing his first Puscifer shows this weekend in Vegas. I pondered going, but nobody was interested. Last weekend, they released some really sweet front row tickets - I got the email about it while I was sitting at my computer and I could've had some front row seats!!! But again....I chickened out.

Well, last night, I got the following email from the Puscifer mailing list:

Just announced! A very limited number (and we can't underscore enough how limited and rare these tickets are) of VIP tickets to this weekend's Puscifer shows in Las Vegas. The shows are Feb. 13, 14 and 15 at The Pearl in The Palms Casino.

Each VIP ticket entitles the holder to:

* Premium seat
* Signed bottle of wine
* Meet and greet before show (with the entire Puscifer collective, including Maynard)
* Signed commemorative poster

They had me at "Meet". I couldn't hold back any longer. I bought two tickets without even knowing who I'd invite, where I'd stay, how I'd get there, etc..

Turns out I got pretty good seats as you can see in this seating chart of the Pearl theater at the Palms Casino:
