Me too, Angela, what a great surprise for you! And I'm glad your sister enjoyed it too.
I zipped my folder of pictures. If you want to see them, you can download them here. It was easier than posting them all.

The shape was weird. The downstairs space was probably the best place for him to be, but... I almost felt like the theater just wasn't prepared for the amount of people who would want to meet him, and for that kind of fanbase. It was just so silly that they had some people saying he left twenty minutes ago and others saying he was still there, but not signing, or was maybe signing, and so forth. Conflicts like that made it really obvious they were lying, and if their intention was to get people to give up and head out, it backfired, because the conflicting information made it clear that he was still there, and made people want to wait around to see what would happen.
Thanks - great pictures! Isn't it strange how the shadow from the spotlight makes it looks like he was standing right in front of the backdrop, when in reality he was ten feet in front of it? I guess that's because you were directly in front of him.
Also, the downstairs space was problematic because there was a play going on in their small theater.One of the doors into the auditorium was right across from the dressing room doors. Someone came out and was complaining about the noise from the ten or so of us who were down there, so I guess that's partly why they wanted to clear out that area.
Yeah, I'm shocked that they turned out so well, because I took them all without a flash. The lighting was bright enough, though. :)
Great pictures!
I just...have a hard time taking him seriously when he's holding the shaker thing.
I know he just does it for dramatic effect, because he would just as well hold it in his hand or set it down nicely, but at the end of the song when he goes full-out rockstar, and he throws it, that's kinda hot.
.... I guess that's what he WANTS people to say, though.
It broke last night. The little shaky things went everywhere. Heh.
Great pictures everyone! I'm glad you all had a good time, even if you didn't get to talk to Adam afterwards.
Thanks for all the pictures, there awsome!
Thanks for all the pictures, there awsome!
Love the pictures - thanks so much for posting.
So, in a show of solidarity, does anyone want to mention math tests they've failed in their highschool/college career? Tomorrow's test is going to be painful.
My final grade in math last year was a 68...so, I'm sure that I failed a few tests.
But, I just got a 92 on my first test this year...so, things are looking up.
Goodies!

Since I'm too lazy to only post some pictures, here's a link to my picture site to check out all of them.
Thanks so much, Angela!
ETA: 120 pictures! No wonder you couldn't post them all. You've got some great ones.

You have some wonderful pics there, Angela. And the one of you and Larry is really really nice. I love Larry. He seemed like such a genuinely nice person.
Wow, that's a lot! I'm always hesitant to take too many because I'm afraid I'll get so caught up in catching every little moment on camera that I don't just get to sit back and watch the show, so I'm always glad when other people take a lot and share them. I ended up taking way more than I thought I had, but the more the merrier!
Here are a couple of really nice ones by Angela and Emcee. I had to crop Emcee's quite a bit just to get it to a size that wouldn't dwarf the page!

I think that's my favorite. :)
Since I obviously have nothing to add, I just wanted to say I have enjoyed reading the funny reviews and looking at everyone's pictures.
Ariella - Math.... Wow. The only reason I had a B in Senior HS Math was because my teacher forgot my grade and gave me a "B" because she could've sworn that was it (I was one of the best students in school so she just assumed I was good at Math also).
In 9th grade my teacher gave me an A in return for a Nirvana CD.
I had no such luck in college and got a C after I tried to do all the work I hadn't done in...EVER. Now I love Math and I'm teaching myself.
Sorry about the rant.
No problem everybody Most of the good ones were not really taken by me, but my sister who has an amazing camera.
"In 9th grade my teacher gave me an A in return for a Nirvana CD."
I wished my life worked like that.

*waves* Hey everyone. Sorry I didn't get to post sooner, I just got back from a weekend of Adam and Six Flags.
I took only 5 pictures and they turned out not so bad..i'll post them later when I get a chance.
I think I saw a few of you at the concert, but wasn't positive so didn't say hi. I was with my dad and my friend (tall blonde)..and i was the short one with long brown hair. I'm just curious, but who exactly went to the concert? I *think* I saw Emcee, Lexi, and maybe skittles? Not sure.
I waited around at the after party..for a while. I heard too many stories from different people of where he went and when he left, but as I was leaving a person that worked at the theater said. "what did they tell you?" ..and we told. "Well he's coming out. If you go all the way down the ramp and turn to the left. Walk down to a door." We didn't exactly believed him and we started to walk away and he followed us down the ramp. He said, "No! Really! He's coming out!" So we following his directions to the side door. We were the only people waiting there and we waited about 15 minutes. Various backstage people were carrying things out to his car, etc. He finally came out, but with people around him, saying "No autographs. Go away.” So I'm just standing there. And my dad, being as obnoxious as he was, screamed to Adam, "Adam, come on please. Just sign the girls autographs! Please, Adam." I was totally embarrassed and felt so bad for Adam, I wanted to kill my dad at this point. But Adam called from his car, "Come here girls," in the sweetest voice. And we go up to his car and he said something like, "hello girls, thank you so much for coming" as he signed our programs. I just had the stupidest grin on my face ever, as I was practically in his car. I couldn't speak, but managed to say, "Thank you very very much, I really appreciate it." He smiled so big at me. He then said goodbye and thanked us again, and drove away. Although my dad was kind of obnoxious and pushy, it made a memory of my first time meeting Adam.
As a review (short review), his concert was amazing and he was sounding his best. He cracked some jokes and said his little monologue about the internet blogs. And then I think it was Lexi who called out, "We love you Adam!" Perfect timing And he said, "Thank you baby." Great concert, I loved it!
To top off my night. As we walked back to the car, Larry was parked next to us and was just leaving. I quickly said "Great job" and waved.
Hi She, nice to see you again.
Alex, you're right about Emcee, Lexi and skittles, and I was there with them too. We were all in the front row. I'm really glad you got to meet Adam, and good for your dad for being a little pushy.

You're so lucky you got to meet him! *sigh* The show was definitely enough for me. So it's all good.

Yea! I saw you guys in the front row and I think you were standing right next to me afterwards.
I kind of felt bad, because he (my dad) was a *little* rude, but he said please =] But it turned out great.
The first thing that came out of my dad's mouth when Adam walked out onto the stage was, "His hair is..YELLOW! Did he pur a bicket of bleach on his head?" it was the funniest thing ever. He also made a comment about his shirt. =P
Alex- My sister was the same! But throughout the show, she started to like the hair. Everytime she took a picture saying "aw, he's so cute!" or something to that extent. She was talking about his jeans & how they were sorta tight, but she liked them. & They were a good look for him & quite stylish. I mentioned the time he wore sparkly jeans. She said "No wonder so many gay guys like him"
It doesn't sound to me like he was actually rude, just assertive. Anyway, I'm sorry I didn't know who you were. Next time feel free to say hello!
