THE OFFICIAL Taylor Hicks Discussion Thread

[Robinrs]

Okay everyone.....

I just SURVIVED the Atlanta American Idols Concert. I'm home EARLY because I had to take my niece home. Left right after I had the shock of my life....

My niece ADMITTING that Taylor is one HECK of a performer... .. she's a Chris and Elliott fan...

And realizing that all of the woman who said you haven't seen him until you've seen him LIVE...omG!!!

First of all I have NEVER EVER EVER seen a man more beautiful. Words canNOT describe it. He's taller, thinner, tanner...excuse me...THUD... okay I'm back... more awesome than anything I've ever seen...

He's magnetic... so powerful on stage. He had everyone on their feet and just rocking. We had 2 to 90 year olds just up and wiggling! I had a beautiful gray haired lady high five me when he did DIMYP!

When he bent over and asked "Atlanta? Do I make YOU proud?".... I nearly lost my voice.

He literally made my heart HURT...

I'll report more tomorrow I PROMISE... but right now I'm going to COLLAPSE in bed with a BIG SMILE ON MY FACE.....

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!

 

[Robinrs]

Oh, and for the OTHERS... there were others????

Mandisa was great

Lisa surprised me in her coquettish attire. She has amazing legs!

Paris... omg... WHAT a performer. She's amazing on stage, and boy can she dance!

Bucky rocked out, sang mostly RnB songs, which sort of surprised me!

Ace was Ace... cute.

OmG, Chris was awesome. He's one heck of a performer!

Elliott... his voice was PURE and perfect. I had never heard him sound so beautiful. He and Chris sang a song together I would buy TOMORROW if they recorded it!

Kellie was ill and only showed up on stage in her PJs for a minute... awwwww....

Kat.... (duct tape) (duct tape OFF) The Excuse Diva was at her McPheever best...

Then my man.... woooooooooooow!!!!!

Yes, he's WAY more than I expected... and I expected A LOT!! I was basically in a trance... and think I still am.

There ought to be a LAW.... Good Lord Almighty.....

Oh I forgot to add, last night at the Atlanta concert....

Ace came out, sang a song then loudly proclaimed:

HELLO PHILADELPHIA!!!

That is hysterical. Those poor kids must certainly be losing track of where they are and what they're doing. A tour this grueling would take its toll on the most seasoned performer, don't you think?

Well, at least he's stuck in a cool place like Philly

I thought of you last night Robin. It's amazing how I'm not only hooked on Taylor, but also on the Disboards. I mean, there I was at home at 9:00 or so, thinking about *some woman* in Atlanta who was currently losing her mind.

Yes, Taylor's real true strength is not going to be in the studio, but on the stage. He's amazing up there. I can't wait til he has a stage and 2 hours to himself. I've started saving money with my "Taylor ticket fund" already!

and she WAS!!

Yes when it comes to stage presence Taylor, Chris and Paris are untouchable. They totally aim it at the audience and include us in it!!!

Talentwise I'd give it to Taylor, Paris, Elliott and Chris. Seriously, all the others are good but not unforgettable. Lisa is adorable but she literally bored me to death with her Elton John medley. Mandisa was vocally superior but didn't pull me in. Bucky is adorable but like I told my niece last night I'll bet there were one hundred guys in the audience who were better than him. Ace was just middle of the road vocally. And Kat just put me to sleep. I went to the bathroom during one of her songs.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz I couldn't imagine any of them doing their own tours.

Are those yours? Just wondering because

1 - I had pictured your seats to be at a different angle, and

2 - I am proud of you for doing so well with the camera!

 

[ckay87]

Edited - double post.

Hey, I hear Taylor's going for a book deal (ala Fantasia.) Personally not crazy about that idea, myself.

No, it's from a AIer... I was to the right and didn't get that angle.
