ME & FRIEND FLEW TO SYRACUSE ON SUNDAY MORNING FROM NY JFK AIRPORT. WE CHECKED INTO THE WYNDHAM, CHANGED OUR CLOTHES. FRESHENED UP, HAD LUNCH AND GOT TOTHE WAR MEMORIAL STADIUM AROUND 2:00. WE SAW THE BUSES AND A FEW PEOPLE STANDING AROUND SO WE JOINED THE CROWD.

THEY SAID A FEW CAME OFF BUSES AND GOT BACK ON. MY ONLY CONCERN WAS TO SEE ELLIOTT AND MY FRIENDS WAS TO SEE TAYLOR. TAY TAY WAS AT THE END OF THE BLOCK ON HIS CELL PHONE. ACE CAME OUT AND TOOK PICS AND SIGNED AUTOGRAPHS. WE BOTH TOOK PICTURES WITH HIM. HE IS VERY SWEET AND VERY CUTE, BUT I WANTED MY ELLIOTT.

WE DID MEET THEM ALL AT MEET & GREET AT NY JULY 15TH SHOW, BUT WE CAME BACK FOR MORE ELLIOTT AND TAYLOR AND WERE NOT GIVING UP. MY FRIEND NEEDEDTO USE THE RESTROOM AND HEADED INTO THE VENUE AND I WAITED TO GET A FRONT ROW SPOT AT THE BARACADE NEAR THE BUSES. I FINALLY MANAGED TO WIGGLE MY WAY TO THE FRONT FIGURING IF EITHER TAYLOR OR ELLIOTT CAME TO SAY HI, I WOULD BE THERE. I NEED MY E BAD, SO WHEN I GOT TO THE FRONT I CALLED HER CELL TO TELL HER TO GET BACK OUTSIDE AND GOT HER VOICE MAIL AND TOLD HER GET YOUR BUTT OUT HERE ASAP, SINCE THE GUYS COULD BE OUT ANY MINUTE. JUST AS I HANG UP THE PHONE I HEAR MY NAME AND SHE IS IN THE BACK OF THE CROWD CALLING ME WITH A HUGE SMILE ON HER FACE. SHE TELLS ME TO COME OFF THE LINE AND I HESITATE SINCE IT TOOK A WHILE TO GET UP THERE, BUT HER SMILE TOLD ME SHE HAD GOOD NEWS. NOW YOU HAVE TO KNOW THIS GIRL BESIDES BEING A DEAR FRIEND SHE IS MY BOSS AND SHE REALLY KNOWS HOW TO GET WHAT SHE WANTS AND DAMN, SHE SURE DID.

SHE SPENT SOME TIME INSIDE TALKING TO A FEW PEOPLE AND SHE GOT THE MEET & GREET PASSES. SHE JUST KNOWS THE RIGHT WAY TO SPEAK TO PEOPLE. SO WE GET ON LINE AND WAIT. ALL EXCITED TO SEE OUR MEN AGAIN. I HAD A GIFT FOR ELLIOTT AND SHE HAD ONE FOR TAY. THERE WERE SO FEW PEOPLE ON LINE IN COMPARISION TO THE LONG ISLAND SHOW. THEY TOOK US IN PRETTY FAST, UNLIKE LONG ISLAND. WE WAITED OVER AN HOUR IN LINE THERE. WE WERE FREAKING OUT.

I HAVE TO SAY THEY ALL LOOKED EXHAUSTED AND SOME OF THEM LOOKED LIKE THEY LOST SOME WEIGHT. I GET ALL FLUSTERED WHEN I GOT TO ELLIOTT. I TOLD HIM I LOVED HIM AND HE SMILED AND SAID THANKS. I WAS SO EXCITED I FORGOT TO GIVE HIM THE GIFT AND HAD TO GO BACK. HE WAS ADORABLE AND THANKED ME LIKE 10 TIMES. I REALLY WANTED TO TALK TO HIM LONGER, BUT THEY KIND OF MOVED US ALONG.

WE WERE THRILLED TO SEE OUR GUYS AGAIN, BUT AGAIN THEY SEEMED EXHAUSTED AND I GUESS THEY REALLY SHOULD BE. 3 MONTHS ON THE ROAD LIKE THIS MUST BE HARD. ELLIOTT'S HAIR LOOKED GOOD. A LITTLE LONGER THAN USUAL AND HE HAD MORE FACIAL HAIR. I LOVE THE GOATEE THE BEST, BUT HE ALWAYS LOOKS GOOD. GOD HE ALWAYS LOOKS GREAT.

WE GO HAVE A FEW DRINKS AND LOOK BACK AT THE PICS WE TOOK AND WAIT FOR THE CONCERT. I MET A FEW ELLIOTT FANS IN THE BAR AND TELL THEM ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE. WE WERE BOTH FLYING HIGH FROM THE SIGHT OF THEM.

GET BACK TO THE VENUE AND MET A FEW E-TRAINERS. I MET TOFU AND HER FRIEND. WE HAD 5TH ROW SEATS, MUCH BETTER THAN LONG ISLAND. WE HAD 26TH THERE. SHOW WAS REALLY GOOD, SOUND SYSTEM WAS BETTER IN LONG ISLAND, BUT THEY ALL SOUND GOOD. OF COURSE BEING A BIT PARTIAL TO E, I REALLY LOVED HIM AND BEING THAT CLOSE WAS A THRILL. GOD I LOVE THAT MAN.


AT INTERMISSION MY FRIEND WENT BACK TO HER LITTLE MAGIC AND GOT TALKING TO AI SECURITY GUY THAT SHE FLIRTED WITH AT THE LONG ISLAND SHOW ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE GETS AFTER SHOW PASSES. YES SHE KNOWS HOW TO GET THINGS DONE EVEN AT THE OFFICE. WE ARE REALLY FREAKING NOW BECAUSE WE KNOW AT AFTER SHOW YOU CAN TAKE PICS WITH THEM. I WAS SO HAPPY.

AFTER THE SHOW THEY FILE PEOPLE WITH PASSES INTO THIS ONE AREA. WE WAIT ABOUT 15-20 MINS AND WE GO TO THIS LONG HALLWAY AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES THERE. TAYLOR CAME OUT FIRST AND I THOUGHT MY FRIEND WOULD JUST DIE. SHE SPOKE TO HIM AND I GOT A GREAT PIC OF THEM. THEN WE SEE MANDISA. SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. TOOK A FEW PICS OF HER. THEN COMES BUCKY. HE IS REALLY CUTE AND WE SPEAK TO HIM A FEW MINUTES. HE IS FUNNY ALWAYS SMILING. WE MET CHRIS AND GET A HUG FROM HIM.

THEN I HEAR THEM SAYING NO ONE ELSE IS COMING OUT AND I WANTED TO CRY. NO ELLIOTT. TO SAY THE LEAST I WAS VERY DISSAPOINTED, BUT WHAT COULD I DO.

I KNOW I HAVE NOT SEEN THE LAST OF HIM. I CAN'T GO TO THE FAIR, BUT I HAVE A FEELING I WILL BE AT ANOTHER ELLIOTT CONCERT IN THE FUTURE. I KNOW THIS IN MY HEART AND WILL BE HIS FAN 4EVER.

ALL & ALL WE HAD A BALL AND MEETING THEM WAS THE THRILL OF A LIFETIME AND I WILL NEVER FORGET IT. ELLIOTT HAS DONE TO ME WHAT NO OTHER HAS DONE. NEVER CHASED DOWN SINGERS OR STARS IN MY LIFE.

I WILL POST MY PICS ASAP. I HAVE ONE FOR THE THUDALICIOUS THREAD. GOTTA RUN. HUBBY IS GETTING ANNOYED AGAIN. THANKS AND SO GLAD TO BE A PART OF THIS WHOLE THING. ETRAIN ROCKS. :etrain: 4LIFE. ATLANTISKAT

Great posting atlantiskat! Glad you did get to meet E, even if he wasn't there after concert.

Your boss/friend sounds like a friend of mine lol. I don't know how she manages it, but she has a way of getting what she wants come hell or high water.

Glad you had a good time.

Atlantiskat, thanks for sharing your experience. It's great that you got to see Elliott before the show and give him the gift. Too bad he didn't make it to the after party. Sounds like you had a blast anyway! You're friend is awesome. Can't wait to see those pictures. :D

Thanks for sharing your experience. Glad you got to meet E. :D

:greenwenvy: Man, why didn't I get a meet and greet or after show pass?

Ah well. Glad you had a great time! :rocker: Can't wait for the pics!!

I am sooo jealous!!!

Nice to met you at the concert. I would have loved to seen Elliott but maybe in Richmond.
I know I was crazy at the concert but I had to get Elliott to see my sign for all the ladies here at E-train & my Moosak Sistas.

HI TOFU, I LOVED YOUR SHIRT. I VISITED MOOSAK A LOT IN JUNE AND JULY. HAVE NOT LATELY, BUT ENJOYED POSTING AND VOTING FOR MY MAN ON THAT SITE. YOUR WORRIED ABOUT BEING CRAZY AT THE CONCERT, WELL APPARENTLY YOU DID NOT SEE ME. I WAS FREAKING OUT OVER ELLIOTT AS USUAL. HE DID NOT COME TO THE AFTER SHOW AND I WAS SO DISSAPOINTED. TAYLOR IS KIND OF SHY AND DISTANT, BUT BUCKY CHRIS AND ACE GAVE US BOTH HUGS AND KISSES. I ASKED EACH ONE OF THEM TO DO ME A FAVOR AND TELL ELLIOTT THAT KATHY LOVES HIM AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD. I HELD UP AT THE MEET & GREET BETTER THAN I DID AT THE ONE WE HAD AT LONG ISLAND CONCERT BACK IN JULY.. MY CO-WORKERS HAD TO LITTERALY HOLD ME UP AFTER ELLIOTT LEANED OVER THE TABLE AND KISSED MY CHEEK. I WAS LIKE FALLING DOWN. MY PICS WILL BE UP SOON. I NEED MY 12 YR OLD DAUGHTER TO HELP ME WITH THAT AND GETTING HER TO DO ANYTHING TAKES 4EVER. GLAD YOU ENJOYED THE SHOW AND BOY WE HAD SOME GOOD SEATS. I WOULD BE GOING TO RICHMOND ALSO, BUT HUBBY WOULD DISSAPROVE, BUT I WILL SEE YOU AT ELLLIOTT'S FUTURE SOLO CONCERTS. GLAD TO SEE YA. ATLANTISKAT :etrain: 4EVER

Great recap of your Elliott/Idols adventure . Thanks for posting. I enjoyed reading it. Congrats on meeting Elliott again. You have a great boss/friend. (Is she hiring? Just kidding. Kinda. lol) :)

I wonder if the guys remembered to tell Elliott that you loved him. It would be kinda cute if each told him separately a few minutes apart.

Glad that you had such a good time.

I SURE HOPE A LEAST 1 OF THEM REMEMBERED TO TELL HIM. I WAS SO SAD THAT HE DID NOT COME TO AFTER SHOW. IT WOULD BE NICE IF THEY EACH TOLD HEM A FEW MINUTES APART. I LIKE THAT THOUGHT. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GO ON WITHOUT MORE CONCERTS. :( :etrain: 4LIFE

I am so glad you got some " E " in Syracuse! What a great friend you have and your boss to boot!
I LOVE Elliott's hair it is so full and kind of curly.

I am the same way never in my life have I ever been ga ga over any star or singer. Here I am at 46 chancing for a glimpse of Elliott.!
Thanks for sharing

:thud:

THANKS FOR THE RECAP. BOY, YOU REALLY HAD A BLAST! SO GLAD YOU GOT TO MEET ELLIOTT AND GIVE HIM A GIFT. I SAW THE CONCERT IN JERSEY BACK IN JULY. GOT NO WHERE NEAR THE IDOLS. :no:
BUT I AM HAPPY FOR YOU. :yes:

HE HAS SOME KIND OF MAGICAL POWERS OVER US OLDER GIRLS. I AM IN LALA LAND AND DONT' THINK I WILL EVER BE BACK. :thud: LOVIN MY E MORE EVERYDAY. :etrain: 4LIFE

SORRY MY PICS ARE TAKING SO LONG. I WILL HAVE THEM UP AS SOON AS WE FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT. LAST TIME I DID THIS, THE PICS WERE HUGE. I PROMISE TO GET IT SOON. :etrain: 4LIFE
