So, I was down in the dumps because I didn't have tickets to Bamboozle Left, and I had to read twitter after twitter about all the awesomeness happening in Irvine.  I eventually fell asleep, accepting my fate, but was soon awaken by Nicole with an interesting Twitter. 

"Are playing a secret set at CITYWALK in Universal City at 9:45pm!!!"

It was Gym Class Heroes.  It was almost 9:00.

We don't live close, and on any normal day or night, it would take at least an hour to get all the way to that side of town from West L.A., park, and go through the motions of getting into Citywalk.

We waited. Debated. Contemplated.  Ten minutes later, we decided to jump up and make a mad dash for Citywalk--after a short stop to pick up our friend Breana, who is probably Travis' #1 fan.

We made record timing, although we still ended up missing the majority of the set.  We arrived just in time for the last verse of Cookie Jar. It was now 10:05.

We waited a little while to see if they would come back and do more performances later. Unfortunately, they did not.  However, there was red carpet event and they stood and did interviews for quite some time. I got a ton of great photos while we watched.

Afterwards, we talked to Travis for a long time.  He's pretty awesome, but that's expected.  Eric was exceptionally gorgeous.

All in all, it ended up being a good night anyway.  I had fun with my girls.  It was good to see Gym Class Heroes again, if only for a moment.  I am glad I wasn't at Bamboozle because I wiould have missed these moments. Everything does happen for a reason.
