MMMMMmmmmmmm, a perfect night.....And there was no place I would have rather been.  The "gang" was making their way to the van as I pulled into the parking lot. By the time I got out of the car it was just Stephen, Jordan and Ben outside the van. Said to Jordan I was looking forward to a good show . He said thanks and kinda gave a double take look like "do I know you?" ha, ha. Got inside and saw Getty, Faith, LC and Jeni along with a couple others. Michael and Mackenzie were working the merch table. I got a hard copy of Michael's EP with his autograph. Mackenzie said they drove all night in a crowded van but that Jason and Mandy flew in. She also said they spent about 2 hours on the beach today. Michael's set was great. He sounded so good! I was looking forward to his banter as everyone always says he is so funny and he definitely did not disappoint! I didn't stick around for CCL as I was able to go to the private meet and greet with Getty and Jeni. What a treat that was!! We weren't able to stay long but it was still special and I know I wouldn't have had the patience to wait around after the concert to see him. He signed my CD and I made sure to look at his eyes this time as last time I forgot to! His set was about an hour though it seemed longer. He sang every song and sounded great. He did still have a nagging cough but it only got to him between songs for the most part. The crowd really got excited when he sang Somewhere Over The Rainbow. When he sang Hallelujah I felt like he was serenading me as I was sitting in the 3rd row. It was so good. The people next to me commented on how much he has grown since Idol and I think everyone enjoyed an amazing show. So happy to hear it was sold out as it was a larger venue for him. Saw Mandy for a second on my way out. She looked great as always. Enjoy my only 2 pics! Oh, almost forgot....I got excited when he mentioned that he expects to be going to NY soon to record Changing Colors! Hope this means a new album eventually!! Couldn't have asked for a better night! Thanks again Getty for getting us in to the meet and greet. |

I've never sat for a Jason concert... I'm not sure I could... maybe for the opening acts, but I liked standing for Jason's at flytrap and at the loft... oh, yah, i did sit for the AI concert... because people around me would have been a bit perturbed if I had stood up... and the Garland concert... sheesh, how many times have I seen Jason in concert? more than i thought... by the way... vids from last night are beginning to show up on youtube... e.g. www.youtube.com/watch?v=adpk3VSxzhgwww.youtube.com/watch?v=GsTKZBZuS8s |

Thanks for posting these, Becky. His voice sounds so much better. Miss Mandy is taking good care of him!! You may be right about the sitting. There is a good chance that I wouldn't like it!!! I do tend to move..... |

Sitting was great!elebenty-one The concert was fantabulous!!! He gets better and better every single time I see him. I can't wait for him to come back to Florida. I'm trying to upload video to YouTube now. I probably won't be able to bring everything over until tomorrow. It was great to see jblue, FloridaMom and all the rest of the wonderful Florida ladies. The one bad thing about a seated venue is that there isn't a whole lot of opportunity to mingle, so I didn't get to spend near enough time with everyone. There's always next time ... I'll work on a recap. But, for now, it's family time. |

My videos are slowly, but surely uploading to youtube. The picture quality isn't great, but the audio is pretty good.
Here's LU:
And Changing Colors & Closer: (He says at the beginning that he's probably going to be recording CC while he's in New York this week so that he can hopefully get it out to us soon. SQUEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

In Dallas, Jason said that Changing Colors was already recorded, so I'm thinking that he was saying that when he gets to NY he's gonna meet w/Atlantic and see if he can't get it to us somehow. DD05 also said it was already recorded.

Did you hear how they all went crazy for SOTR? I'm thinking this crowd wasn't too familiar with Jason's CD. It was a very mature crowd which I think is typical of that venue. Has he gotten this reaction to this song at other shows?

Flying, I am Almagetty. Those are the videos that I embedded up above ^^^. Tee hee hee!
I have most of Jason's set recorded, except for Heart of Stone, All Wrapped Up, "Let's Just Fall in Love Again" and SOTR. Are there any that you guys particularly want to see? There are some really nice quality videos recorded by others that are already out there.
Becky, he definitely said he was going to be recording Changing Colors while in New York. Maybe they want to re-record it because they were not happy with how the original turned out? Or perhaps they want to record it using the guys that are in the band with him?
