I posted some pictures... keep checking back for more!

(on my main myspace, use the button link)

Sorry about the large watermarks... but concert photos are very high risk for being stolen online.

I'm back home. My plane back got delayed by an hour in Texas because of the rain there. I had a lot of fun in OC, naturally.

I have a ton of pictures to sort through; see which are crisp, which need to be lightened and so on. I went picture happy.

Al singing to me. Don't ask how I got it...I had suddenly realized he was coming towards me, I put my camera down immediately after that.

A very nice Yoda stare.

I'll get working on these in the morning. I have to sleep, sort through pictures and everything else.

Ok, now the first three nights are up! (I'm still writing the other reviews... but I dont think they'll be quite as long as the first one- that one included a lot of different pieces and the setup story).

Fun reading all the reviews and seeing pics! What a great time! It was so nice seeing some old friends again, acquaintances, meeting a few new ones :)

ALPOTO, thanks for the brownie! :) Diva, thanks for the name badge and all the hard work you put into making them :)

And many thanks to AL, STEVE, JIM, JON and RUBEN for five AWESOME concerts :)

No problem. Like I said, you guys are totally worth making brownies for. :D It was nice to meet you too!

So sorry I haven't had time to write a review, but I want to write a full elaborate one of all my thoughts. The roommates and I are deeply involved with a housing search so I haven't had time, but I will try to post my thoughts on the whole experience tomorrow.
But I got second row seats, got to meet up with Al backstage as well as several of my WOWAY buddies, and had an overall great time despite the many technical difficulties. My full account coming soon...

Kristine, for the life of me, I can't find the pictures or the video on myspace :(

I don't even know where to begin! I don't have time to write much of a review (my computer is a ticking time bomb at the moment - - don't ask), so I'll make it very brief.

Firstly, I must say - I LOVE YOU GUYS.

You, WoWAYers - MADE MY WEEK. I got to catch up with those of you I haven't seen since the CD release, and those of you I hadn't seen in 3 years (!!), and I got to meet tons of you I've never met before. I had a blast because of you guys. As Melissa put it, this is the only time of the year I'm surrounded by people who "get it" (or something like that :P).

Now, the quickest review ever:

First night -
-Thank you for the name badge, Diva! :*
-I got to sit next to Kristine! :whoot: (and watch her effortlessly take pictures 100x better than mine...lol)
-"My love for you's like..." (The feeling is mutual, Al - believe me.)

Second night -
-What seat am I in? Who cares? (Ended up in the second row...with a fifth row ticket.)
-Melissa is TOO FUN to sit next to. :lol:
-I had a wonderful moment. I got the "I wanna be, your Krakatoa..." line --- 2 inches away from my face --- with Al's legs on either side of mine. Oh mercy me...
-I'm not sure how the rest of the concert went. Was there a rest of the concert?

Third night -
-5th row aisle, he wants to be my beef burrito - he made himself perfectly clear.

Fourth night -
-Pretty much musical chairs the whole night. I don't even remember where I ended up sitting.
-Maybe I've seen his picture? It's in the dictionary under...
-Got to go backstage afterwards... :inlove: Thanks to some lovely people. O-) I could write pages about this, really. (I'll probably expand on this later, trying to race to write before my computer crashes...) I got 2 fabulous Yankohugs and an excellent picture (I requested a specific pose... ;) ) thanks to Al and my pocket photographer, Kristine. :P
-Later on ran into some strange characters at Borders! Enjoy your books, Cinn, El and Rachel! :)

Fifth night -
-Front row! Brought my mom along too. We also had the pleasure of sitting next to CindyBob :)
-He liked my skeletal structure, apparently. ;)
-He also seemed to think my name was Zelda, and that I was the girl of his dreams! :blink:


I'll post pictures when my computer is safe again.

Sorry for the badly-written review. X*

Cheers,
Christina

:inlove:

Sounds like you had a fun week, Christina! So glad you got to meet so many WOWAYers. Lots of WBUL attention, too. I'm so jealous! I'm glad you got to go backstage, and get those Yankohugs. *they are great, aren't they?*

*sigh*

September is so far away...
