This page is for letting all the Hanson fans who didn't get a chance to see Hanson in concert, know what it's really like. I went to the Hanson concert at the Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto this summer, and I loved it. I'm not going to go into a big story of it, because I'd rather post your stories here. So PLEASE if you have been to a Hanson concert, or if you have ever met Hanson, please send me your stories!! ****I WILL NOT be posting any stories that I can tell are absolute lies. I went to the Hanson Concert in Great Woods, Massachusetts and it ruled
sooooo much!!! We had awesome seating and they even saw me!! I was
wearing a red tank top and Taylor said, "Is anyone wearing red?" Well I
screamed as loud as I could! He looked over at me and Zac said, "YOU GUYS
ROCK!!" Tay said, "Red makes everything beautiful!" Well to top it off!
We found the hotel they were staying in and went inside. Fans had
posters everywhere and one said, "The Mmmboppers are here!" Well we
didn't exactly see them but as we were driving away, I looked back and
saw two body guard type people standing on the roof walking back and
forth by this one room that stuck out more than the others! It was
awesome. I'm definitely going to another! - Lara

I got a letter from Tay Hanson! It was an apology letter, because he always
favored the New York fans, and then asked us to see him and his brothers as a
group. It was to my sister too! This is what it said, so if you were mad at Tay
for saying the NY fans were the best and most devoted, then you don't have to be
anymore:
Hey Susie and Jeanie
Thanks for your letter. It's great to know that there are such great fans out
there. I would like to apologize on behalf of my comments. I did not mean to
offend anyone and I am sorry for hurting your feelings. I think what you said is
very true. I acted very hypocritical and I am very sorry. We think the world of
all are fans, and are very grateful for all of the support we get from guys like
you.
U Guys Rock!
Sincerely,
Taylor Hanson
You don't have to believe me if ya don't want to, but I wouldn't lie about this! If
ya want any more info then ya can e-mail me! And Ike and Zac wrote little
comments, but I'm not gonna type em, but if ya wanna know what they are email
me! Buh-Bye!

I saw Hanson in Denver and Milwaukee and both times rocked! We gave Taylor a
necklace with a Pisces sign on it in Denver and he was wearing it in
Milwaukee!!! It was so great!! He also looked up at our sign a few times that
said: "Hanson we have come to you" on it and he smiled!! I thought it was so
cute!! Also, in Milwaukee we chased their tour bus and Ike looked right at me
and smiled!!! Sigh!! Hanson Rocks!!

I had such an AwSoMe hanson experience!
I t happened just this past summer.
I'll tell you the whole thing!!
My friends,Tristan,Tamie,and Danielle
and I,went to a hanson concert!
It all statrted in 1995.I started liking hanson then.
I met those girls in 1997 and we promised eachother
to go to a hanson concert together.
So in 1998,we did.We went to the
Seattle concert while they were on the Albertane tour.
We stood in line (more like slept in line!! lol !)
for 1 night and half a day.We were the first ones lines
when we woke up!! So we ended up getting front row tickets!!
The next 2 weeks went by in a flash and we
spent them making posters and choosing
outfits for the concerts.When the big day came,
we spent 3 hours driving there and went in and took
our seats. when the show started,I started sreaming sooooo
histarically!!I sreamed so loud,you can even hear me on their new album,
'Live from Albertane'!! If you listen carefully,right after
Isaac says 'Oh yea' right after song number one.You can hear
ME and my friend Danielle scream at the top of our lungs,
" WE LOVE YOU!!!" it is so weird to hear yourself
on a actual Hanson CD!!!! My poster said,
'Taylor! mmmbaby!' and evry time he glanced at it,
I swear he blushed! So he looked over to me alot!!!
(probably cause I was screaming sooooooo loud!!)
And every time our eyes met,he smiled!
*FaInT* So it turned out that he looked over at me alot!!!!
At the end of the concert,he even waved at me!!!!
I was in HeAvEn the whole time!!!!!
I swear that something just clicked between us
that night,even though we never talked......
*SiGh* it's a great feeling to just let out all your hanson-love
in screams at a concert! (of course if you try it at home,
you get grounded for the rest of your life!) (personal experience! lol !)
I wish I had met hanson thet night,but unfortunately,
I wasn't so lucky!!!! I have a great feeling that I will meet hanson soon
though.....
I hope you enjoyed reading my hanson experience..
Just remeber that HaNsOn RuLeS!!
love and bullet proof marshmallows,

Me and my friend went to see Hanson in Montreal at the
Molson Centre. We live 8 hours from there but for Hanson
we'd do anything. So we arrived 7 hours before the concert
started and we were first in line so we decided to go walk
around to the other side of the building and our dream was
about to come true. We saw the family white van go by and
Walker was driving and then we saw a huge bus starting to
pull in then the driver of the bus opened the door and we
had these posters that we bought there and we held them up
and said "we love hanson" so he said well how would you like
hanson to sign those and we almost died. So he took them and
Hanson was in the back of the bus and Tay opened a curtain
and i screamed "I LOVE YOU YOUR SO HOT" Then he blushed and
waved and said we love you to. My friend absolutly loves Zac
and he ended up coming out to give us our posters and then
had to go practice. Thats my story.

Okay, okay, this isn't a Hanson experience, but a near
Hanson experience. It was August of 1997, and my mom took
me, my sisters, and my best friend from Cali to Target to
get a treat. Of course, my friend and I, on the verge of
becoming major Hansonites, both picked Middle of Nowhere
(MON). Anyway, we're going nuts!!!! It went on like this
until my mom calmed us down and we left the store. When we
were at the car, my mom pointed to my CD cover and said,
"Those boys were in the store." My friend and I flipped!!
We were all, "Where?" "Over by the video games"(Target has a
machine where you can play games) "They had their hair
pulled back, and they were playing the games." My friend and
I were so upset that we didn't see Hanson, and maybe
embarassed because Hanson coulda seen us going nuts!!!

Well it all started in Toronto Canada on Aug 16 the first time Hanson was in
Canada!! They were playing at Wonderland for YTV's Pskyo Blast. Me and my
bestest friend Megan got there kinda late for reeeally good seats but we looked
all around down at the front and found 2 none Hanson Fans getting up out of
their seats in the 5 row!! We ran and sat down with our new awsome seats!! We
waited over 12 hours (i know it sounds like a lot but we were there from like
11:00 am and the concert wasnt until 7:00pm!!). When Hanson first came out they
answered a few questions and then went backstage again. Then about a half an
hour later at 7:00pm they came out for their concert...When they first came
running out they were waving and i was waving back and Zac looked right at me and
waved!! I could have died knowing that i loved him and all!!! But anyways, after
they waved and said hi and stuff they started playing their song acoustic (or
however you spell it!) they played "Madeline" and "Man From Milwaukee". Then they went over to their instruments and played "Thinking
Of You", "Where's The Love?", A Minute Without You", and "MMMBop"!!! It was
soooo cool!!! We (the crowd) broke the records for 140 decibles!!! It was LOUD!!!
But WAY cool!!!! Then the next day we went to the MuchMusic (the local music
station) and saw them there!!! We were there like 5 hours early and got 2 row
inside to see them!! In commerical (or however you spell it) I got to give Zac
something and hand Taylor the flowers to all of them!!! It was soooo cool cause
when i gave Zac the thing i touched him!!!! AHHHHH!! hehe!! He felt it and
looked at me a smiled!!! it was soo sweet!!!! And Thats My Story!!!

I went to their show at the Molson Amphithetre in Toronto.
One of my friend's dad knows their tour manager. When we all arived we had trouble
getting in because no one knew who Patricia Chaveria (thier tour manager) was.
After a few phone calls, we were told to find somone named Cinnamon.
We fond her riding around on one of those golf-cart type things. We hopped on
and she handed us our tickets.
"ROW A!!!!!!!" we were all suprised that our seats were that close! Anyway
when we got to our seats, Admiral Twin were just getting off. We waited and
waited and they finally got on. After the best concert ever was over, we went
backsatge to meet them. We all got drinks from their personal fridge. I was
talking to some people from Cinncinatti when the got there. They came down and
I was so nervous! We wanted to be the last people to meet them so we wouldn't
be mrushed but we were the second I think. When we were leaving my friend said
to me, "i think Zac has a crush someone". She said that becase Zac took my hand
very forcefully and leaned on me for the picture. I was like "Awwwww Maaaaaan,
Im in love with Tay!!!!"

I saw Hanson at Red Rocks in Denver. I don't remember a whole lot, but I
remember that it was totally awesome!!! We were in row 32 and had a pretty good
view. Some things that stick out in my mind: Before the show, we saw Mackenzie
swinging around a pole, looking kinda bored (and sooo cute!) Admiral Twin
commented on being in the home town of the winners of the Super Bowl (go
Broncos!). After singing Gimmie Some Lovin', Isaac said, " You know, you guys
have GOT to be one of the loudest audiences we've ever performed for!" and we
all shrieked as though we were proud. After they sang Where's the Love, Isaac
then said, " Well, gee, we would thank you guys, but I guess you guys would
SCREAM!" and of course we did. When they were about to sing a song from the
acoustic set (I don't remember which song) Taylor suddenly said, as if he had
forgotten to say it, " By the way, you guys do know the rules, right? You know
you have to keep clapping?" or something like that. In the !
middle of the show, they started saying "Well, that's it!" "Good-bye! Thanks
for soming!" "See you guys next time" and left the stage and it got really
quiet cuz somehow we knew that wasn't the end of the show (one tip off was they
hadn't sung Mmmbop yet, and you know they NEVER give a show without singing
Mmmbop!). A minute later they ran back out and Talyor said " Well I geuss we
could play a few more songs for ya" and we screamed again. Zac said "are you
sure you want us to?" and we screamed and he said "are you REALLY sure?" and we
screamed even louder and he said "okay" and they started the next song. When
singing With You In Your Dreams, Taylor sounded like he was going to cry when
singing the last line and after the song was over, he briefly turned his head to
the side and ran his hand across his eyes. When singing Man from Milwaukie, the
lights were shining on Zac the entire time he did that "mother bird, baby bird"
thing and we couldn't see him. He also didn't!
use the megaphone, but his new deep voice is SOOOO cute!!! When signing
Summertime Blues, Taylor was running across the stage, telling us to sing,
holding the mic out to us, and he tripped and dropped the mic, but he quickly
stooped and picked it up again without pausing in the singing. When they sang
Weird accapela, Taylor held his arm out in front and started waving it in an
exagerated manner and we all started waving out arms. I think that's about it,
but I remember hoping it was another ruse when they left for good. But the
concert was a blast and I plan on seeing them on concert again
