Good Morning Glamberts...I am sorry I took so long to get back to all of you that supported me so well yesterday - it was a long lovely night and I really was too wound up last night to type it all out, so here we go! We arrived at the RG at about 3pm, a full 45 minutes before we were due (and might I add 4 hours before the concert) and it was a good thing because all of the regular parking was gone!! I suggest to all heading to a concert to purchase parking vouchers early if they are available. We ended up finding parking 5 blocks away!! Anyway, we checked in at the will call box office and there were about 50 other people waiting for the meet and greet. We waited for at least a half an hour and finally an official looking woman with a clip board came out and started calling out names...my last name starts with a K and so we waited for what seemed like an eternity, but finally heard my name called - I was with my daughter, so we walked forward and were handed a round fabric like sticker with the idols picture on it and the word PRESHOW and the date (nice keepsake for later!)Turns out that most of the people waiting were not on the list and there was some drama with people trying to get on the list, but its all very official and they were not allowed to come with us. we were told to put the stickers on our bodies and then we were told the bad news....we would be walked past the idols who would be seated behind tables, were were not allowed to touch them unless it was a handshake and there would be no pictures with them, you could take all the pictures you wanted OF them, but they would not stand for hugs or individual pictures..my heart sank becuase I really wanted to hug Adam and have my picture taken with him, but oh well, at least I was going to be WITH him!! So I brushed it off and we all started walking across the walkway to the acutal venue (the box office is across the square from the venue) short walk, but I told my daughter we should lag back a bit so we could be in back..maybe we wouldn't be as rushed through as the first people and that ended up being true) we walked into the venue and down what seemed like 100 stairs to the bottom level. Through a set of doors and there they were..all set up behind tables with an American Idols banner hanging behind them - here is the order..Adam was first (of course!!) then Lil, Megan, Alison, Matt, Kris, Scott, Michael, Danny and Anoop. Since we were in the back we had lots of time to stare at Adam and take some fairly good pics. They are on my daughters camera and I will post them later. We all waited patiently...we were told before we went in that we would receive an 8 x 10 photo that the idols could sign but each idol would only sign ONE thing, so if you had something else for them to sign (I had a Rolling Stone) then you had to choose. So when we got in line I was looking for who was passing out the photos...and I realised that ADAM had them!! Since he was first in line, he started things off! As I got closer and closer to HIM I really had this sense of calm come over me..I can not find the words to describe how BEAUTIFUL our boy is in person...unworldly beautiful..JET black hair..so black and still looks completly natural on him (honestly,I can't even imagine him as a strawberry blonde now..I am sure he would still be beautiful but the black hair just suits him!) he has a heavy blue streak now, probably pumped up for the shows and it looks just like he describes..like a feather all blue and black and shiny..his skin is perfect and he is tan..might be makeup but it looks totally natural...his eyes are just heaven..light blue, darkly lined and memerising..I looked right in them (I will describe exactly soon) and he is SMOLDERING! He didnlt have alot of liner on, just a touch and he was PERFECT! He was wearing a blue grey tshirt, jeans and his favorite black long toed boots, I could see this becuase he was on the end...the girl in front me was named Katie..I remember this becuase as my turn came up I totally forgot than anyone was in the room except for Adam and I remember watching him write out her name..silly, I know! So then it was my turn..I stepped up and introduced my self, I told him how much his music meant to me and how it made me brave and fearless and I gave him a necklace like the one I wear - its a sliver plate that has FEARLESSNESS written on it in Sanskrit...it is beautiful and totally sums up how he makes me feel - his is on a leather cord and lays about mid chest, mine is more delicate and feminine and sits right at my neck - here comes the best part and I don't want anyone else to feel bad, he might just have been being nice, but he reached out and touched mine around my neck and then looked at his and told me that this was the best gift he had received so far and he really like it!!! OMG just kill me now! We looked each other dead in the eye for what was probably 5 seconds and he said thank you.. At that point I tried to get a picture with him, but they were monitering us and he looks great but I am a blurr as I moved to quickly..he signed my RS and then (even though he was only suppose to sign one thing) wrote my name again on the photo and signed it. I have to metion that my name is spelled liek Janis Joplin and not the usual way, so I am used to spelling it and so I did to Adam, but he totally got it right, not once but twice, he is so good with his fans and makes you feel like you are the only one..he said my name again and thank you again and then at this point I was moved on down the line and I got all the way to Danny when I realized I still had a gift in my hand that I wanted to give him, I work for a Sportswear Mfg. and we just released these fun bumper stickers...I Like Guys that Can Pitch A Tent and I Like Girls With Nice Tents...I knew he would like them. If you don't know what the guys one means, look it up in the Urban dictionary..he knew right off and actually laughed out loud!! So we moved on down the line and it was over, but I have to tell you Adam is everything we all hoped he would be. He is so sweet and kind and of course unbelievably BEAUTIFUL! I hope to meet him again someday and get that elusive picture..but all in all what I have in my memory will last forever!
