WOW! I can't begin to tell you HOW AMAZING this trip was! But, then....as I read back over everyone's comments... I realize that all of you who went to the BIG APPLE, KNOW EXACTLY how I felt! One of my biggest thrills was FINALLY arriving at the HARD ROCK CAFE! I was worried that many of you might already have left. As I raced for the staircase I felt someone touch my arm. When I turned to see who it was, there stood beautiful Jacqueline who I would recognize anywhere if I hadn't been racing through the upper floor intent on reaching my destination. All I could do was hug her close...I couldn't believe I was finally meeting this dear friend of mine "face to face" at last! I felt like weeping with joy! But that was only the beginning.... By the time I got all the way down the stairs and over to the table where everyone was, I couldn't stop my increasing excitement. Here sat so many of the wonderful ladies I had gotten to know over the last three years.... a few who I had already met at other gatherings, and many others who I'd gotten to know very well on the threads, and others I had yet to meet, but recognized them from previous photos. What a beautiful, loving, and welcoming group of delightful women! I couldn't stop smiling and hugging everyone! I was in DreadHead/Castrocopia HEAVEN and I hadn't even been to BB Kings yet, to celebrate with the King DreadHead and the rest of the fans attending! What a WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL Evening spent with all of you doing one of the things we enjoy doing the most.... Spending time together watching and listening to Jason Castro and surrounding him with our admiration, loyalty and love!

Man, that post just made me tear up, Suester. It's just oozing with emotion and I happen to be very emotional this morning. I think we are all witnessing and experiencing something very very special for many years to come.....

It's wonderful to read all of your stories and see the amazing pictures! I watched the concert online and thought of all of you who were actually there the entire time I was listening. Jason seemed so comfortable on stage, and sounded incredible... It was yet another magical night to put into my Memories of Jason treasure box. Please keep the stories and pictures coming!!! I've been listening to the new CD all day and absolutely LOVE it! Fantastic work, Jason!

Flying and Gramma, thanks so much for your kind words. It was great to meet you. And I guess I'm glad I don't look like a lawyer. I had such a good time, and finally made it home to L.A. yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came out and made the show so special. Attachments:

Thanks Overstrung for bringing the video's over! I'm still working on it! I have a few more to go! I tried to do them in segments but messed up a couple of times. Not sure what I'm going to do about What if I fall, It Matters to Me and a partial If I Were You. They're together and over the 10 minute limit the error message gave. Guess I'll have to try editing in the flip share area. Wish the picture was better on the video but the flip cam has a limited range it seems. Darn Wait staff walking in my shot. Does Spielberg have to put up with this when filming? I don't think so! Thanks for the welcome Grammahcac! I prefer being in good company vs. "as crazy as" though! Serene, I did take the Gray hound alone. My niece was going to come but when I went to pick her up she had a panic attack about being so far from her new baby...It was disappointing but understandable. I wish I'd had more time in NYC but due to being picked for jury selection, I didn't know until mid week prior to the concert whether I'd be picked for a jury or not. I only had up to Wed. off. I work for a pathology lab and we do not get Veterans day but some people had opted for the Thurs./Friday to make a long weekend. So you do what you have to do!elebenty-one

Gloria was kind enough to pose for this.. introducing Flying to Rene, I said to Rene "I want to introduce you to a Jason virgin" then it dawned on me what I said and ahhhhh WHO I said it to, so with my foot in my mouth I said, "I mean.....someone who hasn't met him yet" thankfully Rene laughed and said, "I know what you mean" This is Tobi about 40 more posted on my facebook, going to start working on Jason's now.

First of all a HUGE thank you to all who helped street team this show. I honestly believe it helped to fill seats. I taped the entire show and I am happy to share my vids with y'all. They are all viewable in 1080p so be sure to choose the highest resolution your viewing method can handle. ENJOY and thanks again!

I listened to the whole thing and watched what I could between showering, putting my face on, etc....while getting ready for church!! Many of you seem like comfortable friends...since we've shared so many breakfasts together on the island!! And now putting more faces with names!! Too bad you haven't met or seen me yet!! haha "SOMEDAY"!
