Welcome!

[Ashley Leppard]

Pour Some Sugar On Me, Let's Get Rocked, When Love & Hate Collide, Hysteria and maybe even Paper Sun those all mean one thing and that is tonight Def Leppard and Journey’s summer tour has finally reached Miami’s American Airlines Arena.

Ashley was ecstatic, she had bought her ticket online about 5 months ago and she couldn’t wait to go. Today was the day that she could actually see the band that she was named after the great Def Leppard, Joe Elliot, Rick “Sav” Savage, Campbell, Phil Collen, and of course she can’t forget her favorite Rick Allen. Ashley always loved Rick because the way he still continued to play the drums even with only one hand and that is amazing.

Ashley walked inside the Arena and started wondering inside where they sold souvenirs, such as Def Leppard T-shirt’s, hats, posters, CD’s and other memorabilia. She grabbed a T- shirt and paid 20 bucks for it but it was worth it. She continues to walk around the place looking for some other things to spend her money on before the Journey begins playing since they were the opening act.

Rachel made her way in the enterance and headed towards the souveniers. She got a tour t-shirt and made her way down the hallway that was filled with food vendors. Rachel got herself a soda and proceeded down the way. Rachel then noticed Ashley. She made her way towards her and tapped her on the shoulder. "Hey, fancy seeing you here!" Rachel said with a laugh. "I never knew you were a Def Leppard fan!?"

[Ashley Leppard]

Ashley was standing in line to buy a poster when she felt someone poke her in the shoulders. She quickly turned around and saw Rachel, “Hey, wow didn’t expect to really see anyone here tonight,” she said smiling. “And no I’m hear for Journey,” she said laughing. “No, not really, of course Def Leppard, it is in my name,” she commented. “So who are you here to see?” she asked, because maybe she was a Journey fan and she sort of just made fun of them.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rachel smiled and shrugged. "I'm here for the both of them. I own all of both of the band's cds." Rachel said and let off a few chuckles. "I guess you could say i'm a Def-'Ney junkie." Rachel said and let the words roll around in her head a bit, replaying def-'ney in her head a few times before laughing again.

[Ashley Leppard]

Ash began to crack up at her comment. “Def-ney huh?” she asked and continued to laugh at it. The word was very catchy and amusing to say. “Def-Ney very creative,” she said because she had to say it again. Def-ney, Def-ney, Def-ney, the word was defiantly stuck and she couldn’t help smiling at Rachel. “So where you sitting?” she asked because maybe they would end up by each other.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rachel shrugged. "Yeah, it was one of those split second creations." Rachel said and laughed before pulling out the concert ticket from her back pocket and analyzed it for the seat number. "Section C, Row 3." Rachel said with a smile. "You?"

[Ashley Leppard]

Ashley pulled out her ticket out of her bag and kissed it before she read it. Ashley ad been making out with the ticket for months now, and she can’t believe it was finally there. “Same section different row,” she said sadly. “Maybe, I can switch with someone later on,” she suggested. “So we can sing Don’t Stop Believing if Journey does sing it,” she said laughing. Ashley always laughed every time she heard that song for some strange reason.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rachel nodded. "Cool, and yeah.. hopefully you can." Rachel said before Ashley commented on singing Don't Stop Believing. "Oy, well, if you want me to sing it, then you might want to stay where you are. I can't sing for the life of me." Rachel said, then let off an uneasy laugh. Rachel had never been much for singing. She had tried when she was little, but was very unsucessful.

[Ashley Leppard]

Ashley laughed again at Rachel’s comment but it wasn’t as funny as Def-ney. “Hey no sweat, it’s rock and roll, I mean Journey you don’t have to be that good,” she commented. She knew Rachel might like Journey but it was a small humor, Ashley doubt she would get upset about it.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rachel nodded and laughed. "Yeah, i suppose you're right." Ashley was right about that one. With Journey it didn't take much to sing it, that is sort of what rock and roll's about, isn't it?

[Ashley Leppard]

“I’m always right,” she bragged jokingly. “So did you go here with someone?” she asked because maybe she was here with someone a boyfriend maybe. She would have went with Derex but she wasn’t sure where he was and plus the tickets were pretty hard to get.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rached sighed and gave off a small shrug. "Alone unfortunately." Rachel replied. "You?"

[Ashley Leppard]

“Me too,” she said sadly. “Well I don’t know who else got tickets but I hope we see more people, but I highly doubt it,” she said. Ashley still carried the poster in her hand and had forgotten to pay for it yet. She walked over to the sales man and handed him a ten dollar bill. “If Matt doesn’t go I’m going to brag to him that I went I can’t wait to see his face,” she said to Rachel even though she knew she can care less.

[Rachel Lockeheart]

Rachel nodded. "Yeah, it's always nice to be able to shove stuff into siblings faces." Rachel said and let off a laugh. "Unfortunately, none of my siblings are into this kind of music, so i don't get the privilage to brag."

[Ashley Leppard]

"Ohh, that sucks," Ashley said laughing. "Well, I do and I can't wait for the concert to start and to get home and go BOO YA! Infront of Matt's face," she said with excitment.
