OMG, I feel like I am on information OVERLOAD! I need a break on the tour so I can catch up on photos, videos, reviews, encounters, etc.
Couple of questions for those in Sacramento.
-- What is the story behind the above picture? Did someone say he was yelling thank you to his fans?
-- Did the other idols get showered with gifts as well?
-- in the videos, it sounds like the whole audience is singing along with SOTR. Is that the case?
Love the photos, stories, videos, everything. THANKS FOR SHARING GUYS!

If I remember correctly, he was leaving and people were saying Jason can you do this, can you do that, please do this or that and he made this face when we were teasing him.
Calgal is that right? I have the same pic from a different angle above.
The whole audience was singing during SOTR.
I don't think the other Idols got gifts outside. We were there in force and Jason had the most fans I believe.

I just want to shout out a HUGE THANK YOU to SERENE who tried to get Jason on the phone with me. That was so sweet of you to think of me!!!! That's the true DREADHEAD spirit. Helping our fellow DREADHEADS out.
Can't wait to see all your pics. REMEMBER: I need pics of you guys whooping up support for the photo album I'm putting together!!!

I'm still trying to get my pictures to upload. My computer is being so slow with Photobucket! I did want to tell you guys that when I gave out my CDs, people were so grateful and so excited! They thought is was fantastic that we were doing that. One woman looked like she might cry, she was so excited!

Can I just share this random gem from my camera yesterday? I just go Dread-gaga over it. I don't know why:
Do you even have to ask??! Please show us every single image you have of him!! I'm STILL waiting to see my Amasetta with our Jason!! Anyone??
Amasette!? Did you not get the picture of him signing your ukulele that I sent you? Here's one of them:
I posted earlier, but I guess it didn't go through... Amasetta is my daughter...and, yes, she did get your pictures--thanks from me, too! By now I've seen several pictures of her with Jason, but she's being silly about posting the two really good ones of her with him, 'cause she thinks she looks terrible
.... How does she expect to look after standing out in 110 degree weather for several hours!! Come on, Emmy! Post 'em! This is no time to be vain.

Hey everyone!
It was SO great to meet you all yesterday! Thanks so much to Rosequeen and everybody for putting it all together. We would not have known what to do without you! You guys are awesome stalkers! Emily and I posted pictures and re-caps at Castrocopia under the Sac thread. We would post them all here as well, but it's being really slow. =(
I hope we can all get together when Jason does his solo tour!. . . and find him at the buses again. . .
For those of you who were standing with us at the buses after, and Emily was cellcasting for Rickey, she made the front page if you want to see it!

Time out to tell you Archie is a sweety and loves Jason. He was first in the line and told us he loves to see Jason fans shirts because they were the best, always different, then he says "I like Jason". It was so sweet and sincere. Personal opinion I think Jason is great for Archie and he's glad for the friendship.
aww thats cute! Thanks for calling in last night-live feed was great!
Thank you! It's already been confirmed I screamed in ya'lls ear! Whoooooooooooops my bad. *lol* Can I hear it?
haha yes you were just very excited I am sure
I don't think Zigg recorded it, so I don't think so.

What a day it was... *Happy Sigh*
Can you tell I was...uh...not disappointed...??
BTW, I DO, of course, have more pics than the ones I posted earlier...I just chose the best ones. If someone is interested enough to PM me, or something, with instructions on how to create an AI-only album on Photobucket that I can post the link to, I'd be happy to post them all there... Like someone else said, I also have other unrelated/personal pictures up there... I just don't really know what I'm doing with PB beyond uploading them...pathetic me...

Hey Sac Team Operation Touch Jason!!! Did we get our mission accomplished or what? I finally finished typing up my day. I think I gotta shorten it!
Glad you took all the photos!!! I think I want everyones!
BTW, the burger bag..
The burger bag, I saw someone hand it to Jason and he peaked inside and said "MMMM, Lemon Heads! Thanks" and gave that knowing nod, almost like the Cook impersonation

Apparently it is. Anyhow, I've never posted on this board...I'm what you would call a *lurker*...I don't like that word tho, it sounds kinda shady : / Anyhow, I was at the concert last night in Sacramento & I wanted to share my story like the rest of you guys! First of all, to those *lucky* enough to meet Jason before the show...I AM SO JEALOUS...I had to work : (
Hmm, so I had to work 7-3:30...my super amazing camera broke last week but luckily a friend of mine was willing to lend me his...I picked it up from his house, got home at 4:15 or so and got dressed. I live in the valley and it is SO SO SO hot here, I had the hardest time getting dressed! Oh and I had no time to make a sign or anything...such a bummer! So I leave for Sacramento a little after five and get to the concert at 6:30or so...my parents bought the tickets for me for my bday & they told me to bring my best friend...so I did...I brought my mom : ) Awww, that's so sweet, right? What's even sweeter is my front row tickets! I knew they were going to be great, but when I got to Arco & made my way alllllll the way down to the front...well, I was in shock! To be honest, I wasn't too excited about the first singers. I have been running for the past week and a half on about four hours a night of sleep so I'm just going to use that as an excuse! And anyway, I just wanted to see JASON! So intermission came, boring boring boring & then all of a sudden the stage went completely black...I saw someone walking out on to the stage...I could barely make him out but then I saw the DREADS and I knew...I started freaking out and I jumped to my feet and stood by the divider thingy that was blocking us fromthe stage...and then he started to sing and I honestly felt like crying...he has the most amazing voice...it's just so emotional & so powerful & yeah, I can't explain it,you guys know!! Jason is so amazing! I've watched him on tv but seeing him in person is something else!Oh and I recorded all of his songs! I'm uploading them to youtube right now...
Oh and I almost forgot one of the best parts of the whole night! When they were singing 'Please don't stop the music' at the end, Jason came and stood RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. All of the idols were in a line, and luckily for me, his spot was in front of ME. Ijust about died!!! If that wasn't enough, he blew me a kiss!I have proof! LOL on video. My brother thinks I'm insane for making such a big deal out of this, he was like 'Vanessa, you do know that he probably does that to a hundred other girls, and you're not special and he doesn't even remember you'...there's my brother, always so ready to bring me back to reality!
After the concert it seemed like they took forever to come out! And I was waaaaaay in the back! When Jason came out I just started running along the line. NOBODY would let me even CLOSE to the barrier...I kept getting so close but not close enough to ask him to take a picture!! And everytime I got close enough I just clammed up and kept staring at him! I felt like I was in a dream or something. My mom was trying to snap me out of it! She kept saying 'Vanessa, TALK. You're not going to have any more chances!'Finally my mom dragged me to a spot where I could SORTA get close to Jason...then I just stepped on everyones toes to get to him! I felt bad, but not really!
This kind of behavior is to be expected, right? I mean, it's JASON CASTRO! So I grabbed his arm...gently, mind you...and I asked him if we could take a picture together...and he said 'yeaaaah' or 'suuuuure' lol he really does love to drag out his syllables...so he put his arm around me(yeeeeaaaaaaaaah!) and I took our picture with my disposable camera. Did I forget to mention my digital camera died right whenI was trying to snap pictures of Jason outside and I only had one picture left on my disposable?
So after I got my picture I just kept chasing Jason...I don't know why...I just wanted to see him! He probably thought I was a weirdo lol, here I am, his very own stalker! I just couldn't help myself! All I kept thinking is when is the next time I'm going to see him in person? I had to make it count! lol. I'm actually a pretty normal 22 yr old! But...it's Jason, he just has that effect!
I tend to ramble on and on about nothing...I hope this wasn't too long!I will post my videos once they upload if you guys want to see them!
Ohhhhhhhhhh, ONE MORE THING! I got home at three this morning, had to be at work at seven (leaving NO time to drop off my disposable camera)...so I had to wait until four...I dropped my camera off at Walgreens & I specifically told the manager to PLEASE take special care of it (because of my Jason picture,of course) and he said nothing would go wrong...hah...when I went back at five to pick them up, the lady behind the camera started out with...'Now I know the manager told you that nothing would happen to your pictures, BUT...' and my heart just dropped. I really started to feel hysterical! She then told me that four or five pictures were ruined 'towards the end'...but that I shouldn't feel so bad because the three films after mine were COMPLETELY ruined...that TOTALLY did not make me feel better! Before I opened them, she told me my pictures were free...great, thanks...So I opened them up...went straight to thel last pic...and breathed a HUGE sigh of relief! There was Jason Castro taking a picture with Me...and the picture was clear, our eyes were open lol, nothing was wrong with it! I'm just going to thank God for that one, no joke. I really did pray for that picture to come out alright! Am I silly or what lol.
here's the picture:
Now how do I post my videos?
***EDIT***
They've uploaded! Enjoy! I know I did!

Hi!
I'm going to have to sit down one night to read everyone's recaps
I was lucky enough to meet some fellow dreadheads before the concert at Sizzlers. It through my husband off a little bit since I dragged him with me to a big table of women! He was a good sport about it.
We both enjoyed the concert! Jason's segment was way too short! I could have listened to him for hours! I kept waiting to see him drum but didn't
that would have been awesome.
We didn't make it to the meet up before the show and I was bummed to have missed that. After the concert we saw a bunch of people starting to line up so we went over there and heard the idols were going to come out. We were on a short side and the security kept telling us none of the idols were going to come to our side--WRONG! They did and it was awesome! I wasn't prepared and had nothing for them to sign so when Jason came over (swoon!) I had him sign my shirt
He is soooo sweet! It really made my night. I felt like I was 15 again
Again my husband was a really good sport and didn't make fun of me at all.
What a great concert!!!

It totally was.
Someone threw up one shirt...he picked it up and gave it to the keyboardist...and that, I guess, prompted someone else to throw a shirt. Naturally, I'm SURE he thought it was a DC shirt of some sort....he didn't really LOOK at it....he put it on....and I was too far to REALLY see it well, but the "Heart ..ASTRO" was clearly visible to me. HAHA!! I gotta get to bed....AHH!!...early morning tomorrow.... But I wanted to confirm!
That's hilarious that someone would throw a Castro shirt to DC.....what were they thinking??? Oh yeah....they were thinking Jason Castro
LOL! I think I'd be too scared too... What happens if Security comes... Or Cook comes down to give a beating (Not seriously)... Haha, still, the pic with him in it was HILARIOUS! Yes, they were thinking Jason Castro, like the rest of us

All of the idols were in a line, and luckily for me, his spot was in front of ME. Ijust about died!!! If that wasn't enough, he blew me a kiss!I have proof! LOL on video. My brother thinks I'm insane for making such a big deal out of this, he was like 'Vanessa, you do know that he probably does that to a hundred other girls, and you're not special and he doesn't even remember you'...there's my brother, always so ready to bring me back to reality!
After the concert it seemed like they took forever to come out! And I was waaaaaay in the back! When Jason came out I just started running along the line. NOBODY would let me even CLOSE to the barrier...I kept getting so close but not close enough to ask him to take a picture!! And everytime I got close enough I just clammed up and kept staring at him! I felt like I was in a dream or something. My mom was trying to snap me out of it! She kept saying 'Vanessa, TALK. You're not going to have any more chances!'Finally my mom dragged me to a spot where I could SORTA get close to Jason...then I just stepped on everyones toes to get to him! I felt bad, but not really!
This kind of behavior is to be expected, right? I mean, it's JASON CASTRO! So I grabbed his arm...gently, mind you...and I asked him if we could take a picture together...and he said 'yeaaaah' or 'suuuuure' lol he really does love to drag out his syllables...so he put his arm around me(yeeeeaaaaaaaaah!) and I took our picture with my disposable camera. Did I forget to mention my digital camera died right whenI was trying to snap pictures of Jason outside and I only had one picture left on my disposable?
So after I got my picture I just kept chasing Jason...I don't know why...I just wanted to see him! He probably thought I was a weirdo lol, here I am, his very own stalker! I just couldn't help myself! All I kept thinking is when is the next time I'm going to see him in person? I had to make it count! lol. I'm actually a pretty normal 22 yr old! But...it's Jason, he just has that effect!
I tend to ramble on and on about nothing...I hope this wasn't too long!I will post my videos once they upload if you guys want to see them!
Ohhhhhhhhhh, ONE MORE THING! I got home at three this morning, had to be at work at seven (leaving NO time to drop off my disposable camera)...so I had to wait until four...I dropped my camera off at Walgreens & I specifically told the manager to PLEASE take special care of it (because of my Jason picture,of course) and he said nothing would go wrong...hah...when I went back at five to pick them up, the lady behind the camera started out with...'Now I know the manager told you that nothing would happen to your pictures, BUT...' and my heart just dropped. I really started to feel hysterical! She then told me that four or five pictures were ruined 'towards the end'...but that I shouldn't feel so bad because the three films after mine were COMPLETELY ruined...that TOTALLY did not make me feel better! Before I opened them, she told me my pictures were free...great, thanks...So I opened them up...went straight to thel last pic...and breathed a HUGE sigh of relief! There was Jason Castro taking a picture with Me...and the picture was clear, our eyes were open lol, nothing was wrong with it! I'm just going to thank God for that one, no joke. I really did pray for that picture to come out alright! Am I silly or what lol.
here's the picture:
Now how do I post my videos?
***EDIT***
They've uploaded! Enjoy! I know I did!

Oh my goodness!!! I just got the pictures the other Emily (I'm also Emily) from Castrocopia sent me! YAY! (See, the one captured of me and Jason on my own camera...well, I'm not exactly thrilled with how I look in it...)
What a day it was... *Happy Sigh*
Can you tell I was...uh...not disappointed...??
BTW, I DO, of course, have more pics than the ones I posted earlier...I just chose the best ones. If someone is interested enough to PM me, or something, with instructions on how to create an AI-only album on Photobucket that I can post the link to, I'd be happy to post them all there... Like someone else said, I also have other unrelated/personal pictures up there... I just don't really know what I'm doing with PB beyond uploading them...pathetic me...
I just love these! Please send me the big files by email if you would, I'd love to print it!

Apparently it is. Anyhow, I've never posted on this board...I'm what you would call a *lurker*...I don't like that word tho, it sounds kinda shady : / Anyhow, I was at the concert last night in Sacramento & I wanted to share my story like the rest of you guys! First of all, to those *lucky* enough to meet Jason before the show...I AM SO JEALOUS...I had to work : (
Hmm, so I had to work 7-3:30...my super amazing camera broke last week but luckily a friend of mine was willing to lend me his...I picked it up from his house, got home at 4:15 or so and got dressed. I live in the valley and it is SO SO SO hot here, I had the hardest time getting dressed! Oh and I had no time to make a sign or anything...such a bummer! So I leave for Sacramento a little after five and get to the concert at 6:30or so...my parents bought the tickets for me for my bday & they told me to bring my best friend...so I did...I brought my mom : ) Awww, that's so sweet, right? What's even sweeter is my front row tickets! I knew they were going to be great, but when I got to Arco & made my way alllllll the way down to the front...well, I was in shock! To be honest, I wasn't too excited about the first singers. I have been running for the past week and a half on about four hours a night of sleep so I'm just going to use that as an excuse! And anyway, I just wanted to see JASON! So intermission came, boring boring boring & then all of a sudden the stage went completely black...I saw someone walking out on to the stage...I could barely make him out but then I saw the DREADS and I knew...I started freaking out and I jumped to my feet and stood by the divider thingy that was blocking us fromthe stage...and then he started to sing and I honestly felt like crying...he has the most amazing voice...it's just so emotional & so powerful & yeah, I can't explain it,you guys know!! Jason is so amazing! I've watched him on tv but seeing him in person is something else!Oh and I recorded all of his songs! I'm uploading them to youtube right now...
Oh and I almost forgot one of the best parts of the whole night! When they were singing 'Please don't stop the music' at the end, Jason came and stood RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.

I'm still trying to get my pictures to upload. My computer is being so slow with Photobucket! I did want to tell you guys that when I gave out my CDs, people were so grateful and so excited! They thought is was fantastic that we were doing that. One woman looked like she might cry, she was so excited!

Great Dreadhead Signs!!! I sure hope Jason saw his picket signs, even if we were missing a few letters from all the running back and forth.
