i’ve been backstage a bunch of times with a bunch of different artists including garbage, alanis, live, something corporate, etc… The trick is looking like you know what you are doing and having confidence. You don’t have to be thin or pretty and you don’t have to degrade yourself. Some times getting “backstage” is better than others. If you always have high expectations you will always be dissapointed. Make sure you go with an open outlook and have a good time regardless if you get back or not.
