after 19 months of waiting and traveling like 3000 miles to see her i finally met Vanessa Carlton!!! i cant even begin to say how happy i am!
Tricia and Katia interviewed her backstage after the central park show (which she did awesome in, singing San Francisco, Ordinary Day, Rinse, Papa, Twilight and A Thousand Miles). They asked her if she would come out and say hi to the Nessaholics since a couple of us had traveled very far (Jacquie and I came from Los Angeles). She said yes!! She coulda stayed inside with her friends and her mom but instead she came out in the rain to meet us! that was sooooo nice of her!
when i saw her coming out with Tricia and Katia i couldnt believe it! i was sooo nervous and shaking while i met her! i'm not sure exactly what she said but i think it went she said "I heard a couple of you came from very far?" and i said "yeah, Los Angeles!" and she said "wow, nice to meet you! what's your name?" and shook my hand. and i said "Holly" and that she did awesome and that i am a big fan. I then gave her this unicorn statue i had gotten her (i gave smaller unicorns to some nessaholics before the concert) and she said "thankyou". i also got a picture with her and her autograph!
i'm still sooooo excited over this! i cant believe it finally happened! it was a dream come true, i wanted to meet her more than anyone!
that night i got soaking wet in the rain, was hungry cause i barely ate that say and was really tired... but i didnt care about any of that cause i met her!!!
Tricia, i especially have you to thank!!! not only did you help me meet Vanessa but thanks to you i didnt have to walk back to my hotel in the rain, at 12:30am in NYC! lol... i was very scarred i would have to do that so thanks to Fergie and You i didnt have to! Thanks for walking me back! i hope we can hang out again soon when we go back to cali! have a great time on the rest of your trip!
And Nikkee!!! thanks for getting me the ticket!!! hopefully i'll see you when you go back to school! have fun seeing your boy today! :wink:
and thanks Nelly, Jacquie (maybe i'll see you at the airport since our planes leave at the same time) Let, David, Andrew, Jason, Dan, Justin, Dave, Toni, Taylor, and Tatiana! it was great meeting you all!!! (sry, if i missed anyone its cause i wasnt introduced to you) and dinner was alot of fun! despite the wait! lol.

Yea, fuck all of ya.
I'm sorry... jealousy must be getting the best of me.
-
i am so happy for you holly - you are too sweet and you definately deserved a turn hanging with nessa - i wish i could have been there - sounds like you guys had a great time - xoxox to the tricianator for hooking up her peeps!
-
What'd I tell you Venti? Stick with Trish and you'd get hooked up. :) I'm glad you finally got the opportunity to meet her. Maybe now if you get another opportunity to see her through Jojo you won't exclude me because I've already met her.
See Trish is more than simply something to be oogled. LMAO
-
Thanks Steph and Steve! :D
i wish you were there too Steph! i wanna meet you, you seem like an awesome person! tell me when you're coming to Las Vegas.
Yeah Steve! i cant believe i finally met her!! i know you know how much i wanted to meet her! lol. i can try seeing how many people i could get to see Vanessa if it ever happens that she's in the studio again. he said it'd be happening soon... oh a year ago! lol. and since then ive already promised a few people... but i'll try!
And if i ever get to go to a Michelle Branch instudio, Tricia you're coming! i'm gonna do my best!
i'm still on a high from meeting Vanessa!!!! lol. omg... my parents are gonna kill me if i talk about it anymore. but i cant help it!
especially every time i see central park.
-
yay holly =) I still can't get over how cool Vanessa was in general and how nice it was of her to agree to come out for a few minutes in the rain! I'm going to get a Thank You to her, and her management for everything they did coordinating with us.
I'm happy for you, I think you should talk about it as much as you want! hehe and I can't wait to see the pictures.

Yeah that was pretty cool her coming out. Leave it to me to mention the wear and tear of the piano and the way her techies treat it while shaking her hand rather than using my 15 seconds for something else. Eh, all in a days work...
I hear that the actual interview, the part that actually benefitted nessaholics, went rather well too, so kudos to Tricia (Who was awesome to meet). I can't wait to hear or read the part that was recorded or transcribed, respectively. And what's awesome, too, is that Katia was able to get that stuff signed. I was able to check it out before I crashed last night...it's pretty awesome. She got that, and then asked Vanessa to come out! Dude, I have like this second-hand importance feeling. Either way, kudos to Katia on that bit. Then again, in part, I sorta feel like we earned everything that happened after the phone tag that went on in the car on the way up to NYC. Sheesh.
The real fun was after the show, but that belongs in a different forum ;-)

Sounds cool :)

I'm sorry I haven't posted....The VC show was the beginning of a busy weekend. I wanted to say that I had a GREAT time with you all, a lot of whom I was meeting for the first time(Jason, Tricia, etc.) and I hope we can all meet up again!
I was one of the few that had never met Vanessa. I thought she was genuine and friendly and very cool. She even liked my CD idea, which I promise to get out soon, btw!
Anyhow, it was great to see everyone, and even better that we didn't have to see Dave get his ass kicked by an enraged doorman.
Five people in an Eclipse?
Done!

-
aww... u'll see her soon!
lol, that was my first time meeting her, so it was awesome
-
*jealous*
-
I can't wait to see her again. I tackled her last time in Dallas. I'm surprised the bouncer didn't try to kick my a$$ but she just laughed and smiled for a great close up picture. :wink:
-
lol
-
can't wait 4 more good times! :wink:
-
can't wait 4 more good times! :wink:
me either!!
I wonder when she'll start touring again... maybe late spring/early summer? Around the time the album drops i'm guessing. But if she comes to LA in mid June (around the week of the 14th), I'd cry. Graduation trip to Hawii with my best friends! :D
-
Sweet!!!! My mom took me to some shows here, but not that many, and she wouldn't let me go to the special DVD tapin even if I was chosen. lol
I would have loved to go, but at least the people who did got something priceless that they will remember forever.
awesome!
Holly, your a lucky gal.
;)
Manda (can't wait to see Ben Jelen!)
