6. In high school I went to a Poison concert (just dated myself there) and got to appear in the music video for the opening band Britny Fox the song was Save the Weak.  If you record the video (or watch the video here) and then pause it at a certain spot you can see my head as the camera scans the audience.....I'm famous you guys!!!!

    1. You mean number 6? It was the concert I went to with Stacy and Shannon and I think Rae??? The car broke down near Topeka and Dad had to come and rescue us. I think you were with me at a party at Stacy's (or maybe Darrel's) when the video came out and we watched in the living room with a bunch of other people.
