L.A. Trip

Me and five of my friends went to L.A. for a couple days to attend the Stephenie Meyer, Blue October concert! We had so much fun! We were supposed to stay at the Hollywood Hills Hotel but when we got there they said they had made our reservations for the night before and thought we were no shows. My friend Mox explained to them that she is a travel agent and that we were there for one night to attend a concert and she did not mess up our reservation date. The manager said they were totally booked, so he called around to find us another place to stay. They ended up putting us in the executive suite at the Renaissance Hotel! We paid the same price we would have at the HHH and they ate the difference. It was a room that normally ran $425 a night! So it was really nice and there was more than enough room for us!

The concert was fantastic! Stephenie answered some questions about the book and we were a little upset that they were questions she had already answered at a previous concert, which we had read the transcripts to, but there were some new ones as well. Justin Furstenfeld was AWESOME! When he played Hate Me it brought me to tears! So amazing!

The next day we went to the Groves and at brunch and shopped around before heading home. It was a great time and we had so much fun!

We were excited to see Catherine Hardwicke the producer of the Twilight movie at the concert. You can't make it out too well, but I got the back of her head!
