I really thought I might not make it home from that bookstore.
Death by a fangirl!
They could choke you with their scarves!
I just...I can't get over the sandwiches with his face on them, and the people like...raping Rodney. =/
I was like "WHY IS ANTHONY'S HEAD ON A STICK!?" I thought they were going to pass them out and we were supposed to wave them like lighters or flags or something.
Em - How about that girl standing by us with the scarf that kept yelling at what we should play and ramming into us? Good times.
That we should play what? hah. Oh, with the laptop?
Yea, the girl who kept peering over your laptop and screaming at the top of her lungs. She was no fun.

dreaminaret- I've already given my dad major hugs for it. I was about to tell him that he needs to get a tango picture with him, but then decided a regular picture is fine. lol
Why don't you ask your dad to take a picture OF Anthony signing the book for you?

I will Em, I'm going ot tell him to bring 2 cameras just in case, lol. Well maybe not. It was funny when my dad first told me he was going to Texas on the same day as Anthony, I kind of attacked him. lol
Edit: I hate it when no one responds after me. I feel like I didn't say anything worth responding to.

It was fine until she started screaming in my ear while pushing me and then started singing with him while he was singing La Vie Boheme. Isn't the whole point to hear HIM sing it live? You can sing along with the CD whenever you want. *sigh* Now I feel mean.
Anyway, it was a wonderful night and very emotional to hear him read the chapter. It's amazing the way he ponders each question and is so nice about treating them all as equally significant, as if he's hearing them for the first time, when he's had to answer the same ones about movie vs. show in addition to other issues SO many times. I'm glad the Cutting Room was good and not as crazy.
ETA: Some of the people there might have been too young and a little crazy, but at least they're looking up to Anthony and giving him their energy instead of some celebrity in the tabloids. Maybe he'll rub off on them a little.

Has anyone ever asked him what he would want to be if he wasn't a performer?
I've been wondering that for a while now.
The finger sandwiches were stale when I was up there. They were...darker than I expected. XD
Did you guys see those girls in the back (well, the opposite side of the stage) of the cutting room? They apparently like to dance. And they started to sing 'Seasons of Love' but luckly stopped. Anyway, I loved how intimate the Cutting Room is. Though, I had to stand next to drunk women at the bar when waiting to get in. It made for an interesting listen.
Those girls were clearly drunk. Or at least I would hope they were drunk, and weren't that annoying sober.
I had no idea where they came from either! I honestly think they just appeared.
All I can say to those fangirls is ... Wow. I just wonder why no one can act apropriately in these situations. The point isn't to scream as loud as you can and prove you're his biggest fan. The point is to enjoy meeting Anthony, and listen to what he has to say. Bringing him creepy, old, food isn't the way to do it.

Umm...is someone going to respond to my question?
I'll retype it just in case, lol.

I think he probably would have gone into something relating to writing.

I've had hours to process the finger sandwiches with his head on a stick and I'm still very creeped out.

Oh well that makes sense I guess, he is a good writer. Also his brother is a writer.
Thanks Fantabulous for answering!
Yeah those finger sandwiches sound really creepy.

I found a picture of them on myspace in the background of someone else's picture!
