I got Jon down there keeping it a secret but eventually had to tell him because there was no chance I would have found it. Once walking, it was like a scavenger hunt and there were all these different signs telling us where to go but it was a hunt to find them. We arrived at the door at 7:10- it looked like we had missed the tour down and might be out of luck because they couldn't guarantee entry after 7pm.
There were two other girls there when we ran up to the door that should have led us down to the studio. We were all pretty bummed and I suggested waiting around for a moment just in case someone came back to lead some other people down. Then I thought we should try some other floors to see if we could find it on our own. I told them I would go searching with one other person and two could stay and wait just in case the door was opened. One girl volunteered, I kissed Jon, and off we went.
(Another station's door. It was also locked.)
(Don't know if we should have been there.)
We tried the two lower floors to no avail. It was kind of creepy and it definitely felt like we shouldn't have been down there. I took some quick shots of the radio station and on-air signs and we tried to open every door to find the studio. All the doors were locked and there was no one around except one person on each floor. We asked both if they knew where the concert was and neither knew but the last told us to check the 6th floor...
She was right. We ran off the elevator and were greeted by the sweet sounds of David. We both jumped with joy and the other girl darted across the room trying to find the right door to gain entry. I told her we should go get the others and she just ran in. I ran back to get Jon and almost couldn't contain myself in the elevator down. When I ran out and told him to tell the other girl we had found it, he said she had left. Apparently the two girls weren't friends and the other girl DEFINITELY wasn't a David Garza fan. No David Garza fan would have left that building unless they had been forced to do so.
Jon and I ran back to the elevator and headed for the 6th floor. Once we got to the big stage door, I held my breath as I pulled and then we both sighed and smiled and jumped in the air with excitement- the door was unlocked.
(David Garza - live at KLRU - 4/8/09)
We crept in and stood there in awe. It was amazing! We finally saw some seats and were actually allowed to walk up and sit down to witness David and his awesome band from the view shown above. It was an absolute pleasure to see him on the tiny stage and from such a great view.
Amaziness, fantabulousness, and pure genius. David Garza was incredible, as usual.
