Hey Nancy/Just1 - I wanted to say a special thanks for being such an awesome show buddy - you rock! After 5 shows, I can't imagine seeing Jason without you! I hope we'll get to see many more! <3 LindaRas Linda- I was thinking the same thing! you are part of the whole experience! And thanks for letting me chash at your place, and for leading me around NYC. The subways there still mystify me, and with my sense of direction, i'd probably never get there! Although Lindaras is the only one with whom i have share EVERY Jason experience, I am also developing a real sisterhood with some of the other DH's who I've hung out with at 2 or 3 shows.- Cristina, Gloria, Lakendra, and more! These friendships make the whole experience even more meaningful, and FUN! I don't know what more I can possibly say about this magnificent show that Linda and Rere haven't already covered. Iwill say that: 1) I am over the moon, hearing Jason say that he and the band are recording a LIVE EP!elebenty-one!! 2) The vocal harmonies, at times, took my breath away! 3) Halleluia took my breath away!elebenty-one! 4) loved the accordion- would like to hear more ( not sure I can hear the band playing klezmer, though, Rere ) 2) I have now expanded my Castro fandom to include Michael! I wish he could have played a few more songs! 3) Ummm... Thanks to certain little rips mentioned by lindaras, I can now say that i totally get the PANTZ obsession shared by so many of you. ( With my complexion, I don't really blush, but if i did I'd be beet red right now.)4) Thank you to Ian for being such a good sport, and photographer extraodinaire! 5) JASON! JASON! JASON! JASON! Oh yeah- right before Linda, Ian, and I had to dash for the train, I dashed off a little "petition" asking Jason to bring back his older songs1 i didn't have time to get a lot of people to sign it, but i wrote- "ASK YOUR FANS!" Jason was in the bathroom, so i gave it to michael. I hope he remembered to pass it along!

2) I have now expanded my Castro fandom to include Michael! I wish he could have played a few more songs! Did you buy Michael's EP? I LOVE it!! It was so much fun to read your recap, Justy!! I loved every word. I hope Jason takes the petition to heart.

Well I'm finally getting around to posting some pics and vids I took. Always need a day or two to catch up on rest, personal stuff and to go thru all the pics I take and pick out the good ones, then I like to edit them for cropping and better lighting & size. Takes time but makes them better The only vids I took that came out was with my iPhone for twitvids cause the lighting was just too dark and I think I accidentally deleted a couple from my camera, oh well. Many good vids always show up on youtube anyways. Can't think of much more to say that hasn't been said already. I feel the same way as you all seem to about the show. Was another awesome show with some nice surprises and Jason sounded better than ever even after being sick. He must be getting better. The highlights of the night for me was when Jason sang Changing Colors, The new opening to Love Uncompromised was cool, Hallelujah unplugged was so full of emotion & love like it was really coming form his heart & his voice was so perfect & smooth! Made my heart swell which made the tears come happy tears *sigh* and when he did the Tom Petty song I was blown away, again! What an unforgettable show and night! Ok here's some goodies... Pics:At happy hour with Dreadheads Jason's "I love to serenade you with my music" look Jason making a silly puckered lips face with the girls lol Group pic of fans & supporters Our crazy limo ride home lol. Cathyanne's glass was only sprite in it haha. *To see more pics from that night, go to:gtrovato.smugmug.com/Events/Jason-Castro-Spring-Tour-NYC-5/12181647_WkB6P#866938942_EhkcNSome twitvids:Dave introducing Jason & some of his opening song: www.twitvid.com/CF2MXThis ones for Rosequeens.

Justy, I loved your re-cap. I hope Michael gave that to Jason. I understand what he says, but I wonder if he realizes how good those songs were. I have Someday as a ring tone on my phone and every time someone hears it they stop me to ask what it is, I really think he could do a lot with that song and I still have a real deep spot in my heart for So Fast. Maybe one day he will decide to record them, a girl can hope right?
Gloria, thanks so much for the pictures and videos, I love the group shots of you girls and really love the one in the limo, you all look so happy!! and justly so!!!

and Justy...I just may have to weave a purple or red streak in my locks to rival yours! DO IT! DO IT! But how about that beautiful shade of blue that looks so good on you, Suester? Gloria- Thanks for the pictures and the twitvids. Wish i could have stayed for the big group picture, but if Lind, ian and i had waited a minute more, we would have been sittin in grand central station til 5:00 am waiting for the next train! FLYING- thanks for the utubes. I just love reliving this show!

4) loved the accordion- would like to hear more ( not sure I can hear the band playing klezmer, though, Rere ) Hahahaha!!! Well, it did make Jordan take notice! (I don't want him to play like that, I just want him to hear it.)

Any official reviews on the show yet from the Media?? No, not in the Times, anyway. But then, I really didn't expect them to review Jason again inside of 4 months--too soon after the last show. Maybe next time... ;D

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that Ian & I are still going through all of his pics from Jason's show - he has a couple hundred of them. I'm trying to get them all into my Photobucket, & when I've done that, I'll post some of my favorite ones, & also the link to my Photobucket, for anyone who wants to see the rest. I'm still smiling, remembering the awesome time I had seeing Jason with his band, & Michael - & sharing the show with Nancy, Glotrovato, Cathyanne, Fragileheart, Lakendra, Marleysmom, Peggy, Rereader, & Cookie! Pictures coming soon - I promise!

OK - looks like it worked!! lol! Here are a few more of Michael - I think the pics came out well! They aren't completely perfect, because Ian didn't have time to go through them all & crop & color-correct them. But I think they're great! Hope you all like them too!
