Gordon, where was she after the show, waited at the merchandise table to get a autographed cd, but they ran out, so I left. Didn't know she was coming out or misunderstood what she said after the show. Screwed up again it appears.

I'm not gonna write a review right now, but the entire show was absolutely incredible. I finally got my CD signed and got a pic with Kellie. but yeah I'm gonna try to write one later.AHH Shannon, Mike, Brandi know haha. Anyway, the one thing thats coming off my head is that there was a new T Shirt I hadn't seen, it was kind of a very light blue picture and it was from the Barlowe shoot but it was so cute.

It was very unorganized and they didn't make the announcement that she was going to be doing anything til like 30 minutes after the show. She signed right by the merchandise table. From what I gathered from talking to security, she spent the first bit of time after the show hanging out with a few friends. So it took her longer than usual to get out there.

Okay well I was with Jen & Kyle, and what happened was after the show ended. I called Shannon and asked where they were, and she told me they were waiting around by the bus. So we went there and I saw Mike, and there was a huge crowd.. so then we saw on the other side by a barricade that was most likely where they would come, so we went though this pumpkin patch thing, and there wasn't really anyone there except a few ppl... so I got a few of the band members sigs. Then.. a few minutes later they told us that Kellie was going to sign at the merchandise table, so we had to go all the way around and get back in line... Wes was at the table right next to her, I didn't recognize him at first. Then Kellie signed my t shirt and my cd, and i asked her to personalize it so she did.. then i took a quick pic with her, and moved on. I saw Shannon on the way out, and yeah needless to say I was walking on air. After we left the arena, I saw Wes and I was like "hey Wes" and he said "hey guys".. i bet it was kinda wierd that I knew his name. lol but of course I realized afterwards I should've asked him about the TTNCAMM video.

Here is MY story regarding the trip to see Kellie last night:
I arrived at the concert hall about 3 hours prior to Kellie's performance. I found Kellie's bus parked in the back with a few people sitting nearby waiting to catch a glimpse of her.(At that time, I didnt know that she had already took some photos with a few fans and signed some autographs. I was upset at myself for not coming earlier and that I had once again missed my chance to take a photo with her. As stated in the 1st post, I did meet Kellie after the show.) I started talking to some people sitting on a picnic table in the hope that someone was from the Kellie fan club! I had with me over 50 photos taken at the Cincy concert in Aug. and knew that at worst,drummer, Gregg would give them to her(I had some for him too!!!) Gregg and I had communicated via MYSPACE. I showed my photos to the other fans and got nice reviews from all. That made me feel great! It turns out that 2 of the people at the table were from our fanclub: Shannon and Brandi!! I could not believe that Brandi and her Mom drove from Missouri to see Kellie!! WOW!! I thought Atlanta was far!!!lol We all hung out both before and after the show. I know, I have made some NEW friends. Shannon is such an awesome person. She was pointing out to us, some of the people in Kellie's life. She introduced me to the local reporter,Jim Lisk, that has done many articles about Kellie. He took a photo of us all and briefly interviewed Brandi and me!!! Maybe it will appear in the newspaper? lol Shannon promised to check it out!!
As for Brandi, she was there earlier in the afternoon and showed me the photo taken with Kellie. An older couple was behind us and saw the photo too. The gentleman stated that Brandi was as pretty as Kellie!!! I wont disagree!! Both are beautiful in their own special way. Both Brandi and her Mom are wonderful people. We all had a nice time hanging out.
Gregg emerged from the bus and I called him over to say hello. I showed him the photos; and he once again was nice enough to bring them back to the bus for Kellie. Gregg took photos with a few of the waiting fans. He is such a down to earth person.
As mentioned earlier, the show rocked. I can listen to Kellie all day long and never get tired of her voice. When the show ended, she walked into the crowd to touch as many hands as possible. Many fans in the front tried to come forward to reach her.
Word quickly spread that Kellie was signing in the back of the concert hall. The line was verrrry long and I was near the end. The line at first did not move and I wondered if she would have the time to meet everyone? Brandi's Mom said to me.."have faith"!!! She was right. After spending nearly an hour on line, my turn came and I felt like I was in heaven!! lol I told Kellie that I was the one who gave Gregg the photos for her. She thanked me very much for them. Kellie signed a photo, but the best part was putting my arm around her waist and having the photo taken WITH Kellie! Life is good!!! =)
Shannon,Brandi, her Mom and myself walked together back to our cars; comparing photos and sharing memories of the day! I finally have my photo with Kellie and met some new friends. It doesnt get any better than that!!

Nice photos Jim. your seat was right in front. Mine was off to the side, with less light. Not sure if mine will be worth posting.
