I went with a bunch of my girlfriends and we had so much fun! we were 8 rows from the front. Our seats were dead center, it was great. The idols put on such a great show I cannot not say enough about it. All of them have gotten a lot better since the show. Some of them, however, I felt looked tired and burnt out. I fel that from Syesha, Ramiele, and Jason. They did perform really well but they just seemed like performing every night was finally catching up to them. I give them credit though, they have a lot on their plate, and they will have even more on their plate once the tour is over they begin making records.
What I loved most about the concert was that each idol is so completely different than the other it was like seeing 10 different concerts in one night. They all have different personalities and styles, it was really cool though. You never got bored. I loved when they all sang together. The U2 song was great! I enjoyed watching Carly & MJ sing together again because I loved their finale performance of the Letter. The concert was just amazing from beginning to end and everyone should get tickets to the concert if they haven't yet. It's awesome!

FANTASTIC CONCERT! THE TOP 10 ARE AMAZING! I AM A FAN OF ALL OF THEM! THEY ARE MY FAVORITE IDOL FAMILY! GO SEASON 7...BEST SEASON YET!

This one too! :sorcerer:

Wow, today was definitely different than any of my "dreams." It was crazy, ridiculous & fun. Let's start off this morning, 8 a.m. Well, I wake up (not like I was sleeping) and I look outside, what do I see? A thunderstorm! I oddly find this ironic, not worried at all. Anyway, I decide to get dressed and go down to the venue with my gift and book. By this time(about 11) the sun is out, yay! I walk all around the venue trying to figure out where I should wait. Finally, I see a few people around back. They tell me idols have come out here in past seasons. So, I wait there. About an hour later, a little crowd forms. Everyone wants to see my book! :] They all tell me that Carly will love it & that I did an amazing job with it. That made me feel so good<3 I was also the only one with Carly gear, that made me feel good too. Well, 3 o'clock rolls around and still no buses! Then about 3:04, we see the buses coming down the street! The 1st bus was the crew (Archie's Dad was in the front seat) The second bus was the girls bus( I saw KLC through the window) & the last bus was the boys bus(MJ was in the front seat, looking thrilled, haha) They pull into the underground parking lot. We all ask security if they would be coming out & they told us they were running late & would not be coming out. ( FYI, in the morning security told us that they would be meeting fans in the front of the venue around 2, but we didn't listen to them cause we never believe security, right?) Anyway, I ended up waiting another hour & a half to make sure if they were coming out or not. They didn't. So I go back to my hotel, fixed up & head back to the venue. This time I had my poster with me. By this time its 5:30 & they are letting people into the venue,yay! So, I go up to the ticket guy & he tells me NO POSTERS ALLOWED! ahhhhh, NO! I worked so hard on it. I had no time to go all the way back to my hotel & drop it off so I had to throw it out. I was pretty sad, I worked so hard on it. Oh well, so they let me in & I find my seat OMG!! I was 9th row center! I was pretty much freaking out haha (lots of stares) After I calm down a bit, I go up to one of the security guards & ask them if they can bring my gift & book to Carly. He says sure I'll bring it to her backstage! YES! its going to get to her! I begin flipin out again haha A bit later the show begins! So, if you know me, I ALWAYS stand at every concert I go to. I can't help myself, I gotta show support. So I stand as I would normally do. Next thing I know this lady 2 rows behind me is screaming at me to sit down. She was making a scene so I sit. Everyone around me was telling me not to listen to her. Next thing I know, I am soaked in beer! Yep, I got beer thrown at me at an American Idol concert. That put me in a pretty bad mood, I have to say. Well whatever, Carly is on next!! OMG I begin to hyperventilate as soon as KLC was over. BMTL begins & I go crazy! She sounds exactly the same as I thought she would, AMAZING<3 Carly is seriously PERFECT, STUNNING. After Carly's set I had to sit for Brooke, sorry Brookie. Then Pride! Aww, Carly had so much fun tonight with her set & Pride. She was dancing & goofing around. Well, intermission comes & I go & wait 45 minutes for a bottle of water! woohoo. By the time I get back to my seat Jason is playing. He is pretty. Then Syesha, OMG her voice when she sang "Listen" was insane! They all have really really good voices. Next Archie comes out & the crowd goes NUTS! Now I know why Carly covers her ears haha<3 Before his last song, he got a standing O for a good 5 min I believe. He was like looking around & it was so cute hehe. Then Cook! W00hoo. I left right after TOML cause I wanted to find where they would be coming out after. I asked about 3 security guards & they all said in the front. But I don't listen, I go to the back...stupid Melissa. We see one bus leave, not sure who was in there though. Then I see one of my friends & he said he was going in front to see if they would come out there & he'd call me if he really thought they would be coming out. About 10 min laterr he calls me & says he is almost positive they will be coming out over there. So, I finally give in & go to the front. THANK GOD I DID. Literally not even 5 min after I get to the front, who comes out first... CARLY! There were already tons of people waiting, so I had to stand in the back. Slowly as Carly comes closer, I sneak my way through & manage to be standing in the second row. Next thing I know Carly is right near me! I hold out my Ultimate High booklet, so she can sign it. When she sees it she looks up & says "Oh" haha<3 By that times she is walking away, but I yell out "Carly, did you get the gift & book?" & she thinks for a second & says "yes, I didn't know who it was from." haha<3 Well, I follow her in back of all the people. I get some good pictures. While I follow I'm randomly screaming out things like "I love you Carly!" "I love you Tater", "I love your tattoo", "how's Todd?", "you should do a Vblog!" But she doesn't hear me. Then she gets to the end of the line of people & I see one of my other friends. Carly then hands my friend back her tour program, signed. & my friend says to Carly(pointing to me) "This girl rocks my socks" Carly laughs. Then I say to Carly "I love you" & she said "thank you." Then, I put my hand out (she thinks about touching it for a sec )but then she did, YAY! I think it's cause she saw my green nailpolish
