To all DM's: Opportunity to Spectate your Campaign?

It's been two decades since I last played D&D, and back then it was 3rd Edition. I've decided to get back into tabletop RPG's again, and want to start getting into D&D 3.5 campaigns. Problem is, I have no idea what I am doing, either as a D&D player as I have forgotten 99% of what I knew 20 years ago, and as a user of the Roll20 interface of playing D&D. Are there any kind DM's out there who wouldn't mind inviting me into their campaign to spectate only? Not looking to cause disruptions or impede in gameplay, as I'd be as transparent as possible. I'd just really like to be able to sit down for a couple hours and see how things unfold in a campaign, the players, the mechanics of D&D 3.5 being played so I can hit the ground running on my first dungeon crawl.

If you were into text based games, I would have no problem with a spectature in the game.
I might have misunderstood your question but couldn't you access the following link and follow a game? <a href="https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Dungeons%20%26%20Dragons" rel="nofollow">https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Dungeons%20%26%20Dragons</a>
Hey Entropy. I'm likely to have a game up and running here in about a week or two (I do everything from the ground up. I find it is more interesting that way, but also takes more time. Still when the kobold that your players are trying to trick catches on because he speaks common, thanks to his +2 intelligence score and his level in rogue giving him bonus languages as a player would have... yea... you start to appreciate the hours and hours of pre-planning).&nbsp; I can bring you in, show you how to tinker with the interface, how to use dynamic lighting if you have a subscription for it, and let you watch a few rounds as they play out once I have a day and time picked.
Entropy, I returned to D&D two years ago after a long absence of my own, so I am happy to help you, although I don't have any sessions coming up in the near future. Otherwise you would be welcome to sit in and observe. However, please feel free to PM me if you are looking for help in getting back into D&D, learning 5E, running sessions on Roll20, and finding great resources to help you. I am a big believer in helping other gamers. I would also recommend watching D&D 5E sessions on Twitch or YouTube, including Dice, Camera, Action, which is run by Chris Perkins of the official D&D crew, Roll Play, which has run many sessions and campaigns on Twitch and YouTube, and the newer Adventurers League sessions run by Adam Koebel.
Thanks all for the replies. Greg and Reaper, I have PM'd you. Definitely interested in spectating and learning from you both. -- Jon, yes, that works too, but was hoping for a more of a personal 1-on-1 with a DM and their campaign. -- Pat, there's always a chance! =P
