    I just sent the video of the San Diego “Help” to a non-addicted, very mature, very calm friend. Her response was, WOW!!!!

    Heh, I think I just hooked a concert buddy, don’t you? I suppose I could have gone and stood on a street corner with the Tubey video and said to women passing by, “Psst, want some crack?”

    LOL to your post - and I’m guessing you meant Hello but like all of us you need Help. I think we’ve found a new drug - I’m passing San Diego Hello around too - I’m a dealer and a user.

    I’m a dealer and a user.

    And proud of it!! :laugh_tb:

    lol, Jan, I did, indeed, mean, “Hello,” but I think the mistake is funny–and true–so I’m leaving it there.

    GwendolynD. . .I think you left out, “and a midnight rambler,” ha.

    Purps - THANK YOU! You are my dealer of choice, fo sho. :)

    Haha, I thought they had changed the setlist up already and did a Beatles song.

    One person’s overkill is another person’s not-nearly-enough, I guess. Then again, I am an addict to the Cookie drug (Hi all, can we just decide to skip rehab altogether?). No one’s stopping anyone from posting other videos and pictures. If there is a demand and supply for Cookie crumbs, I see nothing wrong with that. YMMV.

    Well there are plenty of posts of Archie at Rickey’s, in fact that’s all there is so that should keep his fans very happy and informed per the link posted above. I think there is one thread on David Cook there with the video from Glendale–which he credits to mjblog.

    I for one cannot get enough on Cookie. His final 5 songs were a mini-concert. San Diego’s intro for David Cook - Hello — I swear it was so dramatic. He so looks like a superstar.

    Here’s an interesting post:
    David Cook.org

    Here’s another one which I really love–actually I like both of them :clap_tb:

    Gee, thanks for letting me know about Rickey’s if I want Archie news and that they only have one Cook threat there. I guess that means that this is the official Cook thread and I needn’t bother to look for info on other idols. But I wouldn’t go near Rickey’s with a 10 ft. poll and I thought MJs was a blog about the entire Idol phenom. Plus the thread is about the whole concert right? Thanks for the links to the Cook fan site. That makes it perfect.

  8. 58 jpfan Jul 3rd, 2008 at 8:31 pm

    Thread of course, not threat (I can’t edit) and sorry for the sarcasm but I prefer to get news on ALL THE IDOLS here if possible.

  9. 59 mj Jul 3rd, 2008 at 8:41 pm

    NO MORE BLOG ON BLOG TALK. More posts in that vein WILL BE DELETED. Stay on topic, please.

    E-trainer ElliottCat posted a nice recap of and pics from her encounter with the Idols at the buses in San diego here. :)

    Purple, those photos of David are fantastic. Do you know who took them?

    I got those pics from my local forum, mj. I just know that the “DC Rocks” sign pic is credited to preciosa of Home of the WN (thanks, preciosa) and the pic of Cookie in the concert is a cap probably made by my friend. Sorry I could not directly credit who took all the others (probably somebody from david-cook.org or the DC LJ community), but I thank you, all, my suppliers. ;D

    Sarah, I’m glad to be of service. ;)

    Pop, pj already owes me 3 Cokes…I’m not really a patron of the product, though, so I’ll just take a margarita from ya. ;)

    To all the others, I apologize if I post mostly DC (and Jason) crack…they just happen to be the most readily available to me.

    HI y’all - for those who prefer to view all the vids on one page, here’s the San Diego Concert page (still updating it, but not that many vids available)

    Thanks arca… :)

    Syesha’s blog on the San Diego show

    SHOW 2

    Tonight was so much fun. I met a girl from Make a Wish Foundation and she said if she were any Idol on American Idol it would be me, because she is always smiling. I’ve always found that when I smile even at my lowest point in life I seem to always feel better. It’s just like laughing when nothing is funny, eventually the real laughter will set in and you’ll find that you are laughing for a reason. Your brain will automatically receive a message saying I’m happy!

    Second Show San Diego was amazing! Tonight was a lot better for me. I felt more like Syesha. My hair was Syesha Hair tonight. I felt comfortable with my hairstyle. It was me and you have to do “YOU”. It makes everything better. It’s easier to give a better performance when you look and feel great! Hey even though everything might not be exactly how you want it to be you have to make the best of it and learn from it. There is a lesson in everything.

    I saw so many smiling faces. I found myself interacting with the crowd more. Man, what a rush I love talking to the crowd. They are so much fun. Every city gives off a different vibe and San Diego was real cool and a lot of fun. Yay!

    So, I am the Cliche Queen. But, whatever helps!

    Syesha’s Thought’s For the night:
    “It’s better to speak up sooner than Later………”
    “One step at a time”
    “Things can only get better from here on out”

    Hi, livehead16 uploaded a full version of Syesha’s Listen from the SanDiego show. I’ve been updating my page, too, but here’s the link to Listen. It’s very heartfelt as sung by Syesha. Not a Syesha fan, but I do admire her drive. Would be a pity if people missed it.
