When they attended, they were told that they are not allowed to go to the seating area because Amber was too young at the time. A man at a merchandise table generously gave Amber and her mother "All Access" passes as long as they don't go backstage. They ended up seeing the concert from the VIP area, and stood next to Boris Becker. Amber remembers crying after the concert was over.
