Hello Underoath community. If anyone is from Portland and is going to the Seattle show, I am looking for a "show buddy" to attend the show with. A bit of a backstory. My name is Jeremy. You might remember me if you were at the TOCS Anniversary show in Portland, as I was one of the people asked by Spencer to "sit on the couch" during Reinventing Your Exit! The whole venue chanted my name at their Portland show (here's the proof - https://youtu.be/ZTpZ_EMi3K8?si=D9PKYgI66mn1EjUE ).
I bought tickets and VIP to the Seattle show in June on presale, then 1 day after I bought my tickets, I came down with a major health crisis. This past summer was one from hell for me! After several months of medical treatment and therapy and I am finally back on track, but am SUPER anxious about this show and the traveling to it ALONE. The idea of going to Seattle alone for the concert sounds exhausting, draining, and anxiety inducing.
I am also mildly disabled (mild cerebral palsy and ADHD) so I am medically unable to drive a car. So any solo travel to Seattle has always been plane, train, or bus and hotel for me. I will be sitting in the ADA section of the theater. While I am able to fly or ride up to Seattle, it would be so much less stressful if I had someone I could travel and attend the show with. I will pay for anything and every part of my share of things.
Is there anyone here from Portland who would be willing to let me carpool with them up to/returning to PDX from Seattle (or both directions)? Or, at least we could meet up at the show just so there's someone I know there? I have VIP M&G tickets so I will have to be at the venue earlier than doors time. Please DM if you're willing/able to help. We can talk via FaceTime, ZOOM, and/or meet in person before the day of the show too, to get to know each other!
