"Uggghhh... How much longer till we leave?" I groan and ask my friend Tabitha. Later tonight, we're going to see our favorite band, the one our friends at school have to deal with constant rants about. This band is British rock group, Def Leppard.
"Another hour, Ori. Go fangirl over Vivian more." Tabitha jokes, smiling. Soon, an hour's gone by and the two of us are in our front row seats at the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, New Jersey. Tabitha and I watch the two bands touring with Def Leppard, Tesla and REO Speedwagon, and soon AC/DC's "Shoot to Thrill" comes on as the curtain with the Def Leppard triangle logo quickly drops.
A couple minutes later, the curtain shoots up as Def Leppard starts to play. I look up and see my favorite Lepp, guitarist Vivian Campbell, on stage in front of me. I smile up at him and when he smiles back, I take a picture on my phone. He then reaches down and places the pick he was just using into my hand. I turn and tap Tabitha on the shoulder. "Yeah Ori?" she asks and I show her the pick Vivian had just given me. "Lucky," she smiles.
A few hours later, the show's over and Tabitha and I wait in line for our meet and greet with Def Leppard. By the way, Def Leppard currently consists of guitarists Phil Collen and Vivian Campbell, bassist Rick "Sav" Savage, vocalist Joe Elliott and drummer Rick Allen, who only has one arm. Our turn comes and I stand between Sav and Vivian while Tabitha stands between Sav and Joe. Before we leave, Vivian shakes my hand. I don't realize it until after we leave, but Vivian had slipped a piece of paper in my hand with his number and 'Call me' on it.
