Surprise proposed to my wife at a Metallica concert
Who says romance is dead?
It was actually pretty nice. Hammett was playing his guitar solo Melbourne maybe 10 feet from us. Spot lights were behind him shining on us, who as luck would have it were the only folks wearing white (I was a larger young man so the billboard was in effect) in a sea of black. We were front row, the entire arena could see us because of the lighting, thought about it, asked her for her Aggie ring and took a knee. Place erupted when they noticed it, was pretty cool. Even downloaded the concert and you can hear it in the track. She says yes, we're both crying (shut it), solo leads in to Nothing Else Matters. Perfect. 5 min later their photog came by and said the guys saw us and invited us back. He had me recreate it so I could have a picture. I'll post it sometime.
Great experience, the crew was awesome with congrats, and wishing us luck. Again, can't say enough good things about Hammett. Must have talked to him for 20 min or so.
Reading my earlier post, my golf experiences were actially at two different tourneys both at Champions though. One was the Shell if I remember right.
