Sandy I wonder if you know something we don't know .

That'd definitely be cool if he had a way to communicate with us free of mean non-fan people.

Newsletter would be the best way. Kay can regulate that so that the core group will get it (ie: anyone who's signed up here .

The newsletter is what I was referring to in my earlier post, although I was trying to be all secretive and core-groupie about it.

Well, unfortunately, it's time to reactivate this thread, but for a different reason. I did NOT get to meet Chris at the show last night. I waited for 4 hours in the hot sun before the show and none of the Idols came out. All I have to show for it is a bad sunburn. They had a meet&greet at 4PM, but it had been prearranged for relatives and corporate families (AI sponsors.) We tried to get in, but couldn't. I also waited after the show. Phil came out and I got his autograph. A few minutes later, Chris left in a van (my husband did get a pic of THAT). We didn't wait around any longer to see if any other Idols were going to come out, since it was close to 11:30 PM by then and I was not a happy camper. I am going back before the second show today to try again, if it doesn't rain.

Marleybone, I'll help you with your avatar when I return, ok?

Well Rosalee that sucks, I'm sorry. Here's hoping you do better the second time trying.

Hope you enjoyed the show though, come back and tell us more!

Rosalee - jeez - I can feel your pain. Don't worry about me and the avatar - we can catch up later.

Oh, good grief. I can't believe that. OK, we all love Chris, but I'm really pretty aghast that he didn't get out there to meet the administrator of his fansite, unless he had a valid reason like, emergency appendectomy or something. : )

I hope you have better luck later...keep us posted!
