I'm coming from Boston alone but will be in NYC by 11:00am. I've been a huge fan since 92. I've seen them about 15 times and have been lucky the last 2 shows to meet them. The first time was before the CBGB's show last year when I was walking down Bleeker St. and Thurston walked right into me. I shook his hand and wished him well on the show that night. Probably one of the best days of my life. But then I was in Providence ealier this year to see them and I went to a bar across the street. The second I opened the door I saw Kim staring at me cause my mouth dropped. It was the whole band eating before the show. I stood on the side to let them eat in peace but told their waitress that I'd pay for their dinner. Then they invited for me to join them and I did. Talked for a good 15 minutes to all of them before they left for the show. Got some great pics with them and they even thanked me during the show because I was up front in the middle. Great people all of them. Even got Kim's bass pick after. So I've been lucky and plan on meeting them before the show somehow. I'm male 37(but look 26) with no police record. I'm sure you've gotten a ton of offers. But I'll have fun no matter what.
