Whatever Wednesday : Nick Jonas & The Twitter Concert
Sometimes girls just need a day out with their mom. Tuesday was our” Girls Day Out” to the Disney Resort. We started with California Adventure and made our way over to Disneyland in the afternoon. My girls enjoy going to Innoventions in Tomorrowland, so our last stop of the day was the top floor. The girls went and played the games and I sat and hung out on Twitter. Then the tweets started in the Disneyland search on my Tweet Deck… Nick Jonas surprise Concert at Disneyland Tonight… Hmm, could be just one of those Twitter rumors. Then they started pouring in, one caught my eye that pointed to an LA Times article. I clicked on the article and sure enough Nick Jonas has been doing surprise concerts. I gathered up the girls and we headed to Main Street to see if they had set up a stage. Hmmmmm, no stage. Could still be a rumor? The next round of Tweets mentioned Disney 365 on the Disney Walk. We decided we would walk over to the girly store Disney 365, if we saw nothing we would leave… if we saw any signs something was up we would stay. Sure enough a stage was set up! There were about 100 girls lined up along the gate that was set up around the store. The girls found a front spot and we waited. The crowd grew and everyone was following Twitter to check out the news. Then @nickjonas released that the concert would begin at 7:30pm. Wow, the girls were going to get to see Nick Jonas up close. SCORE! At 7:35 he emerged from Disney 365 and sang 4 songs. The girls stayed up front and had a perfect view. Then after song four, he thanked the crowd and started walking over to the fence. He was shaking hands and the girls got to see him up close and personal and shake his hand WOW!!!!!! This was one of those moments the girls will talk about until they are old women. They will tell the tale of Twitter (Will anyone remember Twitter by then?) and the night they “TOUCHED” their Tween Crush. It was a good mom night. They thanked me a billion times for finding out about the concert and letting them go. They thanked me for standing there for two hours. They just said Thank You a lot, but I will let you in on a secret…. I thank them for letting me relive that excitement of a youthful crush, for letting me see the look of pure joy as they sang along to his four new songs, and just for being there to be part of who they are. Someday when they are Moms they will know that I had an even better time than they did just by being there, to see them be there.
