So here's the deal- I have purchased two tickets to see the band in Portland. However, by the time I found out they were going to be in Portland all the VIP packages were sold out. I would really like to meet Amy because I am making her a birthday present, but I fear I won't even get the chance to give it to her because I know she always has serious security around her. Without a VIP ticket, I am pretty sure they won't let me near her. Does anyone have any thoughts on my situation here? Have any of you ever been able to meet the band without buying tickets to one of their meet and greets? I would love to hear from any fans on this topic. Thanks!

There are 2 things you can do:
1. Give the present to someone with a VIP ticket to pass to Amy (common practice, fans usually don't mind helping each other in such situations)
2. Wait near the buses after the show. They don't always come out but still often enough to be worth a try.
Edit: I wouldn't recommend sharing your email address publicly because you might attract undesired spam. Members can easily send you a private message on the forum.

I don't know anyone else going to the Portland show that has a VIP ticket, or I would definitely do that. I was already going to wait by the buses after the show. Thanks for your reply!

onfire4jc4 Is this the show you're gonna go? If not, make a thread for it here and also leave your request there again. check it every now and then to see if someone with a vip ticket can help you. the closer we get to the concert date, the more replies appear on the thread. Also have Ev/Amy's social media accounts and the replies to her posts under attention a couple of days before the concert. and if you still couldn't find anyone with a VIP ticket in the end, do as harridan suggested and wait near the buses. I don't know and have doubt if it helps but a little talk with the security team (or if you meet any other band member or people close to Amy by accident before or after the show) would be another option to deliver your present to her. I really hope you meet her personally. keep us updated and let us know what happened

Actually, that is the show in Bethlehem and I'm going to the one in Portland. No worries. I will definitely keep you posted on what happens!

Yes I know and they sound so terrible I can't bring myself to listen to Ev anymore, which is really saying something since I've been a fan since 2006.

Amy still does the backing vocals on the album. You shouldn't let that ruin Ev for you. Jen's been doing live vocals the entire time she's been with the band.

Yes and that fact has pretty much made me lose all respect for Amy. I only found out today that Jen has been singing this entire time. She should stick to shredding guitar.

Oh and in the short time I've been here, I have seen two other fans making bad remarks about Jen's vocal ability. So it's not just me!

I know Jens vocals aren't for everyone but you shouldn't let an amazing night go to waste.
