I have a lot of stuff to share from my Charlotte American Idols Live Concert! Experience!–including a re-cap, but first, let me get those photos out to you, ’cause some of you have been asking.
The collection is organized into albums via Google Picassa. Just click on the individual Idol’s album to browse the photos.
I have to say, Idols that performed sitting behind a piano are underrepresented here, because I could not see the Idol from where I was sitting. Also, if I was videoing a performance, I couldn’t take a picture…
Check out the galleries after the jump.
Share and Enjoy:

I concur with everyone else, mj, and say that these pics are some of the most awesome I have seen. You should indeed win an award for your photography.:-)
mj, there isn’t much I can add to the accolades above! but they are all true. Can’t help comparing them to the professional photos from the last (?) concert that made Kris look like Barry Manilow – sorry, can’t remember which concert they all start to run together! That photographer presumably was paid for his pix and you only have our love for compensation, hope it seems like an almost fair trade! And everyone who said the opening Alison photo needs to be on her album is totally correct. Incredible. They all are.
Album for the idols? Absolutely. (If you can get it to them? Hard to know what they receive, actually.)
Re Adam photos (yes, it so often goes there, doesn’t it?), I was particularly struck by the contrast between the photos in which he looks so fierce, and others in which there is an amazing and appealing vulnerability. You caught both so well.
:clap_tb: Ahahaha, and MJ really had to take a pic of Adam raising his arm showing his armpit. So, for those still wondering if he is hairless or not, get a magnifying glass and scrutinize it.
Delurking to say that I was at the Charlotte concert. Had a wonderful time. Here’s my review/recap on my blog, if anyone is interested. Written from the perspective of a Rabid Adam Fan, so be forewarned! http://onlinepastrychef.wordpress.com/2009/08/04/ai-live-tour-09/
We said a “hi” to you, MJ since we knew you were there, too:)
Thanks, isisdagmar:) It really was a great concert. Not only was it great to see them in person, especially Adam, but it was great to be able to share it with my mom!
and.. if anyone is wondering.. I figured out what that circular thing in his pocket is- it’s an ‘Eve pin’ for his friend that was murdered.
Aww, i know that he always put it in his pocket as this is what he said, but, seeing a tiny piece of evidence, makes me go awww inside. Thanks alison, i was one of those who were wondering. :kiss_tb:
onlinepastrychef, you are the best! Very very funny and cute. I’m so glad you and your mom went together, painted your nails and the whole Adam thing. Thanks for the recap!

Great photos all.
Adam’s 45, 46, 47, 48 look as if he had tears in his eyes.
Just me?
ITA Buderschnookie! :sick_ee:
MJ……Your pics are gorgeous! Have you had any training in photography? You capture moments, thanks.

^ See pic #1…….Adam is a work of art. Thanks again, MJ!
Wonderful photos! Thank you so much. And I agree that Adam is a work of Art.
Anna- I wondered the same thing. MJ, THNX SOOO MUCH FOR THE PHOTOS AND LIKE SOMEONE ELSE SAID ALL THAT YOU DO FOR US HERE- AMAZING!!!!
This is the real deal – Adam’s best friend Alisan Porter – I love her she is amazing talent.

THE best concert pics I’ve seen so far, professional or otherwise, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the recap! I’m glad you enjoyed Kris, Allison, and of course Adam so much.
Thanks, isisdagmar:) It really was a great concert. Not only was it great to see them in person, especially Adam, but it was great to be able to share it with my mom!
Thanks, onlinepastrychef! Your recap was hysterical. I loved the capitalization of the Words that Really made a Point!
Thanks, DEfan! I have been called the Queen of Gratuitous Capitalization before. A title I wear proudly!
Yes, she is amazing. She has co-written a song for Adam’s CD.
BTW: Remember the movie “Curly Sue?”………that was Alisan.
thanks for the camera pointers guys!…off to read the stupid manual (grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr)
I Loved Your Reccap!!
:clap_tb: :clap_tb:
Does anyone know where to find MJ’s videos of her concert experience?
Finn: here you go:)
