Anyhoo....We were at the Philly show. I was meeting some guy in front of the Wachovia Center to pick up my tix from him.

I had talked to him a few times during the day. He was getting there late. So it's about 6:30 and he said he just parked and he's walking to meet me. He says he's in a blue-hooded sweatshirt. His name is Mike and my name is Chris.

About 30 seconds later I see a guy in a blue-hooded something walking with a friend. They seem to be looking for somebody. So the friend come up to me, "Are you looking for Mike?". I say yes. I introduce myself to Mike and he's like, "Hey man, what's up", and hugs me and all that. So we're talking for about 30 seconds and I'm wondering why he isn't giving me my tix yet.

Then, I get a call on my cell phone. "Hey Chirs, it's Mike, I'm right in front, where are you?". Within a split second I put it all together. This guy I just met is not the Mike I'm looking for!

It just happened to be he was meeting a Chris in front of the venue at 6:30 to give him tickets....but I wasn't that Chris.

So I have the "real" Mike on the cell phone and as I glance to my right, I see him on his cell phone. I go over to him and tell him the whole story. He and the first Mike and all of us had a good laugh over this Phishy coincidence.

Damn, that Philly show was good!
