I'm so envious of you! Darn it, why won't my Vast Right Wing Conspiracy card get me into these places!

A shame he didn't win, he looks and sounds like a real guy, as opposed to that Taylor clown.

Greensboro is a BEAUTIFUL place. I want to spend some time there someday.

Good for you for tossing a few bucks away for a whim that will always be a great memory for you and the Mrs. -- Chris D or any other reason!

I didn't like the humidity, but it is beautiful country, and I did not meet one person who wasn't nice.

WOW...thanks for that wonderful story.

I am so glad you guys got to see him...he was always my favorite!!

I saw on Sunday on Fox News that he decided NOT to sign with Fuel...but, at that time didn't know what he was going to do.

I HOPE he stays as a solo (with his own band behind him)...he is good enough to be a solo.

I can't wait to get a CD of his.

The American Idol tour is coming here in September, which is my birthday month...but, alas, I don't have anyone that will go with me...sniff, sniff.

Maybe by September I can talk someone into it...but, I REALLY would rather see a show with just Chris.

You are amazing! My mouth dropped open as I read this. Flying to NC for this??? This is as good as hearing you on Sean Hannity as I'm driving 3000 miles away from CA and realizing, hey, I've MET Doug from Upland!

That being said, I also married a guy who adopted my kids and that is a LOT to take on. Chris is special. Thanks for posting this. I like all the tidbits you provided.

What a nice husband you are to surprise your wife like that. I'm glad you two had a good time. Actually, as much as I think Chris should have won, I'm kinda glad he didn't so he doesn't have to be completely tied to Idol for so long in the future. Did you tell him we all loved him at FreeRepublic??? LOL

He is as he appears on TV. When he walked into the press conference, he of course said, "How ya doin?"

I'm throwing away some more. Daughter of DFU is flying down from Washington to join Mrs. DFU at the Idol concert in Anaheim.
