Thank you. What you can't see is the gentleman he is interacting with had Downe's Syndrome. They both seemed so happy by those few moments that they shared together. It was very heartwarming to see that in this day and age.. Jason is a very awesome person.
Here is to hoping everyone can get their "it" picture sometime during Jason's long career!!

This is an example of how we used "blaker's" really cool logo in Houston:
If you look at each person they have a sticker on them with Blaker's logo. We gave them out at the concert - people wanted them like crazy.
This was "lunchmeat's" birthday cake. It was yummy - even the waiters wanted some.

Nice pictures. Since so many people Dreadheads attended the concert, I hope that we get a lot of recaps, pictures and videos when they have time to make posts.
Blaker, are you saving pictures that you see of things using your logo? I hope so because it's pretty awesome how well your logo goes on and with everything Dreadhead. That cake looks amazing with your logo on it.

I had a great time- but I didn't get that great of a picture of Jason. I waited with the other Dreadheads out in the hot sun before the concert. When Jason came out he made a b-line for us. When he did, people came swooping over that hadn't even been waiting before!!! I don't know where they were while I was sweating and getting sunburned. Around me people were pushing and one girl ever stepped on my feet! Of course she hadn't been standing anywhere near us all afternoon. I found it quite distasteful and after giving someone else the gift I bought to give to Jason, I backed out. I would not have wanted to be pushing and shoving my way to get a picture with Jason. It's just not me. I made sure he got my gift and snapped a picture of it- but it was crazy and irritating that people came rushing over from somewhere when he came to the Dreadheads.
But I was glad that I waited out there because later when I tried to get into the concert I had to walk back to my hotel and put my camera up because my lense was too big and they wouldn't let me bring it in. I had a little Canon camera with me but it was too little to do much good from where I was sitting.
If I can salvage any of my pics I'll post later today.
Sorry about my rant--
Oh but the other Dreadheads I met were so nice and it was great to put faces with names!

Yes, I sure am! I love all these pictures, it's so amazing and overwhelming how far my logo has gone! I could NOT be any more appreciative! I want everyone to know you are helping my twin and I pay for our college, so I can not thank you enough.

Hi everybody. Finally back at work. I had a wonderful time meeting up with fellow dreadheads. Wish we had more time together but what we did have was quality time! Except for the people who showed up at the last minute at the barriers, pushing in front of those of us who waited 2 1/2 hours, every thing was great.
I didn't think I could love Jason's voice anymore than I already did, but it was like spun honey, sweet and smooth. So goooood in person.
I started not feeling well during little David's set so I left early and went back to the hotel. I had gotten what I went to Houston for so all was well. My camera is acting weird and our camera expert here at work is out today, so I won't have any pix until tomorrow.
oldieslovehim2 - I've forgotten which dreadhead you were! Give me a clue?

**oh yeah - my brain is starting to thaw out - right before I got this pic Jason reached down to wipe the sweat off his face with his t-shirt - he showed just a glimpse of his tummy and the gals started to "oooh" & "aaah". The men just looked disgusted.
Hey Millie! You forgot to tell me this little "nugget" when you called me after meeting him, hahaha. Thanks for sharing this, it made me laugh!!

Yeah, I understand... Part of the problem, though, I think was that the fenceline was disproportionally short for the number of people there. I don't think any of the pushing and shoving was done with bad intent.... it was just that there simply was not enough room along the fenceline! That, and the idols really didn't stay out too long.
But all that aside, it was so totally worth it to see Jason!!!!
