What more can be said about Elliott that hasn't already been said??? The guy is AMAZING .... he was great!!!

I had a seat in section F (the back half) but got rescued by a friend and ended up in the 5th row!!! I can't believe how relaxed and how comfortable he is on stage now!!! He even did one of these: :bunny: Funky White Boy can move!!

It was everything I expected - and more!!! He sang one of my all-time faves: "What's Goin' On" by Donny Hathaway. He rocked it like none other!!!

Well, I actually had to work today so I've gotta run.

I leave you with my favorite picture from yesterday ....

Thanks for sharing! That is one E-mazing picture! :wub: :thud: :D

Very nice pic, Wendy! Thanks for sharing. :)

It's definitely a :thud: worthy picture! :thud:

Lucky Lady!!

:yes:

Definitely lucky! I'd like to get some of that luck! :thud: :wub:

aww I'm glad you had such an awesome time and got to meet him!

It is REALLY hard to not be jealous of all these stories! :P

Oh I know! This icon :greenwenvy: pretty much sums it! But I really AM happy for all of you! And I am VERY excited that soon he will be SO successful that he will be doing Solo Concerts ALL OVER the country! :woohoo:

Horseshoe is following me everywhere!! :rolleyes:

I'm telling you ... I don't know how this all happens to me!!! It's all about creating your own magic also, ya know?? I guess it's just that I've got no shame sometimes - hahaha - and figure the worst thing that can happen is that they say "No, sorry you can't come in" (but even then, I still manage to get in hehe).

The way I see it is that these people were all just like us ... they want to be treated and talked to like normal people. Sure, I go :drool: :thud: everytime I see Elliott but I don't want to come across as a completely insane fan either (just an E-Maniac! :D).

I think all the experience in my years of performing has allowed me to be gutsy and to be able to talk to people ... more importantly, relate to them. I've always been passionate about music and instruments so if someone mentions anything about those 2 things, it's like I go into a musical trance and can give good input on things. That's what happened with John Legend and Elliott ... they know that you've been there too and you're not just BS-ing.

Just sharing some war stories :)

I'm ready to create some magic for myself! I WILL be there in person next time! Congratulations again! :wub: :D

Here are yummy-looking pictures of Elliott in concert plus the concertgoers:

Contrary to some postings it was a capacity-to-overflowing crowd at Elliott's first solo concert.

While I'm at it, and with apologies to Simon Cowell, allow me to rate the concert and Elliott's performance. The concert itself was fast-paced, electrifying and with zero ennui. On the other hand, Elliott's performance was consistently BRILLIANT, FLAWLESS and SUPERB from beginnning to end.

A million bravos to Elliott and here's wishing him more ECLATS to come!

:etrain: :etrain: :etrain:

Thank you SO much! The :etrain: rocks! :rocker: :woohoo:

Don't you all think Elliott has a real Springsteen look in many of these photos?
In any event he looks amazing and extremely happy.

After seeing and hearing the videos, there is no doubt Elliott will have a deal and make beautiful music for years to come.

I love the fact that his hair is long now ... It curls under his baseball cap which is a totally HOT look for him!! Then again, I'm biased .. :wub:
