Anyone who knows Michael, knows he freaking LOVES Back to the Future. Like REALLY loves it. lol
Every year he "makes" me watch it. Sometimes, he'll even suggest the trilogy. However, the 1st one is his fave. He can literally quote the whole movie. Has brought me to all the filmingspots and points out which scenes were taped at that spot. He's a geek about it really. It's kinda cute. Kinda.
Well, in June my SIL, Natalie saw an advertisement for it playing in MN and sent me it. I immediately looked to see where else it was playing and it was actually going to be at @hollywoodpantagestheatre on his actual birthday-November 24th. So I bought the tickets then. Remember, this was June. Unfortunately Pantages routes you to buy the tickets thru @ticketmaster Well, I was getting nervous that my tickets kept saying "they'll be delivered the day of the event" and checked on them often. Still with that notification showing the day before, I called cause I was nervous and was told "I could get them minutes before the event". With me trying that, we drove to LA, paid $40 for parking, waited anxiously outside and kept refreshing for our tickets. Nothing. I called Ticketmaster since the show was about to start and was told to keep waiting. WTF. I did and nothing came and it was too late to just buy more tickets. I was pissed! Called and bitched. At least they freaking refunded me but when I asked to speak to a Manager, they give you a link...Yes a link to a board to complain. So I did and holy cow, was there a SEA OC the same complaints for TONS of shows and concerts. Like A LOT, A LOT! A lot from Taylor Swift thousands of dollar tickets.
Then my sister saw that @segerstromarts was going to be showing Back to the Future as well. I was stoked to redeem his birthday and purchased tickets. I'm soooo glad I did cause he LOVED it! Seeing him so stoked (he doesn't care for musicals but this made him lol) made all that caca the first time worth it.
I'll always try to watch a show at Segerstrom vs Pantages now. It's overrated! Plus parking and the commute to Costa Mesa is 10/10 better than LA. Thanks Segerstrom.
