American Idol 2008

Ok so a few nights ago my friends and I were able to go to the American Idol concert. I know we're in our 20's and most the attendees of the concert are teenagers, but give us some credit, we are the age of most the people singing.  Well the funny story is that Ashley and I went early in hopes of going to the meet and greet before the show.  Of course, as my luck would have it, we got there at 4:15, and it ended at 4.  But thankfully we got free parking because we were there so early! :)  We also heard from people that were still there that the singers come out at the end of the show, and to try to catch them than.  So we went to the concert. Enjoyed that fabulous singing, my personal favorite is of course David Cook, as you all know.  They all really did an amazing job. Something you are guaranteed in this concert is a good show. We know they can all sing live! David Archuleta was awesome as well, and man did the Utah crowd love him! It was insane, he even started to cry on stage.. precious for the little 16 year old! David Cook followed him and was like thats a hard act to follow! But we cheered just as loud for him! Ok Its best shown in pictures what happened after the show so check it out! 

Jason singing somewhere over the rainbow... he was really good live.. I really like him. 
She sang a Beyonce song, and rocked it! 





I love this face of his! 

Michael Johns... he was the nicest guy! he even posed for a picture with us, and he was singing while he was signing, and just a really good guy. And that australian accent... very nice!
Syesha was very nice as well.. she posed with us too.. of course she wasn't in such high demand as the man of the hour... (DC)
Ok so he was super busy, and everyone wanted his attention, so the closest I got to a picture with him was this one, but good things happened after this! :)
David Archuleta.. he was probably that man of the hour in Utah.. the little girls were going crazy. After he finished signing, he ran past everyone giving them high fives. So funny!
Hooray it was intermission so we asked some people to document us there! 
A close shot of him signing... 
And this is the money shot!!! Ok so at this point we had pretty much followed him around the crowd, and I asked him if I could get a picture with him and he said "I'm sorry darling, but I can't, I don't have time." But then he posed for this lovely smiley, eye contact, the best picture of the night!! And I wasn't sad he called me darling! :) It was a very fun night!
