Nikki Reed Takes Break To See Hanson Gig

Nikki Reed recently posted on her blog that she was flying across the country to see Hanson play a show in Virginia.  She wrote about seeing a video on the internet and being “blown away”.  She wrote a letter to the band and heard back from them about five months later, inviting her to come to one of their shows. 

So here’s the story. About five months ago I was surfing the internet, and somehow came across the music video for Hanson’s new song, “Thinking ‘Bout Somethin’”. (Side note: doesn’t it feel wrong to write a title with so many abbreviations?) I was instantly blown away.

So what did I do next? I wrote them a letter… a fan letter to be exact. It took quite some time to figure out how to write something that was short, concise, flattering without blabbering on, yet mature and respectable. I even called my dad a couple of times to have him proof read it, and then proof read it again. I’ve written many people in the past. When I like a director or a writer I generally write to them, letting them know. The only difference is that usually happens either right after or right before a meeting/audition has been set up. My letter to Hanson was nothing more than a fan letter.

After four months, I got a response! I was over the moon! Not only did they write back to me, I was also invited to a show! Due to my relatively hectic schedule, it was difficult trying to figure out where and how this would happen, but as the saying goes, where there’s a will there’s a way. I spent hours on a genius website called tourtracker.com, to find out where they were playing. Unfortunately, they are only moving further and further away from me. So the story ends with this. On Saturday I am flying all the way across the country to Virginia, to see Hanson play, and I can’t wait!

Anyone in the Dallas area planning to go see Kiowa and Bronson?  If so, share your fan encounter with us!

What do you think of Billy’s hints of the scene where Jacob phases in front of Charlie being a part of the movie instead of something that Jacob tells the Cullens that he did?  I, for one, am looking forward to seeing that.  I do love the scenes with Charlie in them!

I can’t help but chuckle at Nikki’s fan girl reaction to the Hanson video and her excitement over flying to Virginia to see them.   It just reinforces how even famous actors can get excited over meeting other famous people just like the rest of us.
