It's not often you can say you've seen or met your hero. I didn't get to meet my hero, but as the picture shows, I was pretty close to him. Also, as you can see in the picture, I was close to asking my hero, Kevin Smith a question. I was right behind the next guy to ask a question.
Smith held a Q & A in Vicar Street, Dublin on the 14th of Oct. I adventured with friends, Dave and Dan to attend the this evening of joy. On the Ticket Master site I click on section B, which the site showed as near the stage, but when I go to the concert hall, B, was actually the furthest back from the stage. I was a little bummed out at this. Fucking ticket master I was saying to myself. But a ray of hope opened up as I joined a line to ask Mr Smith a question. This brought me right up next to the stage for most of the show. Yes, I stood for the entire show, but honestly? I didn't care less. And yes, the show was 3 hours long, but ran an extra 30 minutes because Smith wanted to.
While queuing, Jen(Smith's wife) walked passed me to talk to someone. It totally surprised me to see her. If you don't know, she was in Jay and Silent Bob as one of the Jewel thief's and she played Dante's fiance in Clerks 2.
So you might be wondering, how the hell didn't I get my question in, if I was queuing from the beginning of the show? Simple...Kevin Smith spends a large amount of time on each question. Even though I didn't get to get my question in, I respect the man for taking so much time out for each person. He doesn't rush people. There was three queue's all together and Smith spent from 10-20 mins answering and interacting with each person.
Smith said many times he would be coming back next year and this time I'll be ready with my question. He also commented on Twitter by saying this show was in his 5 top favourite shows of all time....Damn!
