I thought I would choke up at the Chula Vista M& G, but kept telling myself ‘this is the probably the only opportunity you’ll ever get to meet or talk to these guys so DON’T BLOW IT’, so when Chester came up to me I was able to tell him that 'in the last 35 years of going to rock concerts I truly feel he is ‘the most versatile vocalist I’ve ever heard’. To my surprise he backed up a little, got a huge smile on his face, and said ‘thank you, that’s awesome’. THEN he raised his left hand to give me a ‘high-five’ to which I immediately returned. (even though the rules are don’t touch the guys). Hey, when Chester Bennington offers you a high-five, you don’t turn it down! So glad I didn’t f*ck up this opportunity. Best night of my life! Thanks LP!! EACH of YOU were awesome and very down-to-earth!!
I had 4 meet and greets in 2007, and back then for some reason, I kept my cool and it was really an awesome, amazing experience. This year, I got a meet and greet in Mansfield last month, and I completely choked up. I got all nervous and I pretty much now know that Chester hates me because I copied his flame tattoos and some other ones. I know I shouldn’t have done it, I regret it now and I am thinking about getting them all lasered off. It also doesn’t help being laughed at when I go to LP shows or events, or even just in general. I also then attended the summit in Camden last month and that also had a meet and greet, I wore a long sleeve shirt and it was a lot better, I don’t know if Chester remembered, and he was nice to me, we talked a little bit and I handed him a letter I wrote for him to read, I asked if he would read it and he said ‘‘absolutely’’. He probably ripped it up or just threw it away, but still, that letter meant a lot to me and I am hoping he read it, I think about it like everyday…
I made a poster with some of my artworks (mostly with Chester), I went to M&G, saw the guys and at the same moment, I knew I won’t be able to speak. Fortunately, I had that poster, and when I came to Chester, he just forgot about whole rest of “Meet&Greet’ers”, and spent over 30 sec. to watch and comment. I made him laugh and that was AWESOME 
Unfortunately, woman from security had to move me, cause me and Chester stopped the other people

oh no!!! he probably doesn’t hate you - yeah he thinks it’s awkward when other people copy his tattoos, but he probably doesn’t think you’re a bad person.
No. I had fun with them! I talk more to Mike actually.
Joe is fun, wanted to shake his hand but he gave me a fist bump but when I wanted to fist bump back, he gave me a shake. HAHAS!
I talked to all of them and it was pretty dope but afterwards my hands were shaking like crazy!
Yesterday I was on a M&G and I cried 
I said something (just a phrase) to everybody. If they said something to me (Phoenix talked to me, for example) I was able to answer normally (crying but legible(?)).
All the things I planed to tell them, yesterday were impossible but, after all, I wasn’t speechless.
hahahahaha, it happens all the time…Damn! why? LOL
I thought I was gonna choke up, but I ended up being really calm. I told Chester that I wasn’t allowed to touch him so he didn’t get sick (lolololol), shared some Twitter talk with Dave, told Rob how underrated of a drummer he is (he seemed shocked to hear that), and joked with Brad while Joe and Mike chatted with each other about a song ending.lol Overall, it was pretty amazing.
Oh, and we also collectively autographed a booklet and gave it to the band for appreciation. I’m sure they just threw it away.haha

No, Is Genius attack!!! haha
I had my first M&G this year on the Honda Civic Tour for the CT date. When we were being escorted into the room i had to keep telling myself to breathe…when it was finally my chance i completely got choked up forgot things that i wanted to say…i had a gift for mike so when i gave it to him he started talking to me and phoenix joined in, it was a pretty awesome moment not to mention ending off the M&G with the amazing Chester…he was so friendly i wish i didn’t choke up with him but he shook my hand…hope i get another chance too
I thought I had it under control until I tell Phoenix " Hi, how are you?" he says with a smile “good and you?” I was speechless for like 2 seconds and kinda just said " uh good." He looked at me like “are you gonna say something?” haha!!
Seeing Mike and Chester in the flesh was just amazing! My twin sis and I got selected. Crazy! We told Chester and he said, " Really? That’s great."All of them seem like great guys. Love the Meet and Greet and appreciate that they do it!

I am hoping that I will attend M&G next year,it is my biggest wish :)) Anyway I wanted to ask you guys something,where do you go after M&G?I mean do they let you inside the arena so you could be in the first row or…?What if there are going to be some openning acts? Thanks xx
When I was after M&G, guards just let us go outside and we had to run to the main doors of the arena. In the email they said that after meeting there might be too late to get to the 1st row. I think it also depends if you’re going to just LP concert or festival.
I froze too when Brad came up too me ! I was like ohh sorry lol
But it was way chill !
What up Denisse !
I met them at Mexico City and I gotta admit I was very nervous my hands and knees were shaking and my hands started sweating like crazy haha I felt so ashamed… I just tell them “thank you for your music, thank you for coming back (after 10 years)” to each one of them… but when Chester came to me I just looked at him and told him like very slowly and low “You saved me… thanks” and started trembling, then they left the room and I broke down crying… I was overwhelmed with emotions.
