Sorry this has taken so long guys...but her goes! I won tickets for the concert and meet and greet through the McPheeClub.com fan site. It was an awesome experience to see Kat sing live, she sounded great and looked like she was having a lot of fun too! Sorry for the tardy response but I have been too busy posting the pictures and videos! On Thursday afternoon I was in a meeting at work and my cell phone was ringing and it was a number that was not local so I thought it could be the call I was waiting for! Sure enough it was a guy from Ultrastar congratulating me on winning the tickets and meet and greet for Saturday's show. He said he would send me an email. So I got the email and it had a number to call to confirm within 24hrs. It was Dorian's number, so I called it and left a message. On Friday no call back, so later in the evening I called again and left another message, no call back. On Saturday morning I left at 5:30am and had to fly from Burbank to SF, then SF to SAC. On the second plane waiting to leave I called Dorian again and he answered! I think I woke him up. I told him I was on my way and he said he would call me back and leave a message with instructions and time to pick up the tickets. So I arrive in Sacramento at 9:30am, turned on my phone and sure enough Dorian left a message to pick up the tickets at Will Call between 3:30 and 4:00 and that the Meet and Greet would be at 4pm. So my Aunt's husband and my cousin picked me up and we drove to the stadium so that I would know where it was, we saw the Radio station vans and I went to ask to see if there was going to be a general public meet and greet and they said no so I didn't have to arrive too early for nothing. So we went and got some 8x10's made of my TigerHeat pic with Kat and the picture I took with that picture on the big screen on the ship. We went and had lunch and back to my Aunt's house to print some stuff to give to Kat. We arrived about 2:45 or so and checked to see if any tickets were there and finally got the tickets about 3:45 and met up with the other McPhee club winner. After a few minutes they led the Meet and Greet line into the stadium and up to the area with the tables the performers would be meeting us. We were near the front of the line and after waiting a little bit they announced that Kat and Ne-Yo were running late so we went through the line and met Hillary Duff, Gym Class Heroes and The Click Five, then back in a separate line to wait for Kat and Ne-Yo. They showed up a few minutes later and we waited while the rest of the 1st line finished. So I got a few picture of Kat and some manger lady holding Nena. As our line got back to go around to see Kat, I pulled out my TigerHeat picture with her and held it up for her to see. She smiled and pointed to me saying "hey I remember you!" So as the line continued I called Nick over and said hello and asked if he remembered me and he said yes. I showed him the picture he took and told him I won the contest and flew in from LA just for this show. So then I got up to Kat and said hello and introduced my cousin to her and had her sign the pictures and got a picture with her. She was nice enough to stand up and lean over for the picture. I then explained the big screen picture on the ship and she laughed. I told her I won the fan club contest and I then asked about the exclusive meet and greet and the lady holding Nena was rushing us and said that this was it that she was going to be in a hurry after the show to leave. So I gave her the letters I had and said thank you and good bye. As we got to the end of the other table I realized I forgot to get my CD cover signed, so my cousin said here I'll get it signed. She walked over and I followed as I explained I forgot to ask her to sign it. She was nice enough to sign even though we were being rushed again. So I said we'll see you later and we left for our seats. Kat was second and her performance was awesome and went off without a hitch! We had snuck in my video camera and I was able to record it all. The sound was great, just like being there! Too good though as you can hear me singing along! Oh well I guess I didn't realize how much I was getting into it! She sang Love Story, Dangerous, Over It, Mary Jane, and Open Toes in that order. The crowd loved her! I won't go into too many details as to what she said as you can hear it for yourself in the videos. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoID=2035603829

He asked didn't you see her upstairs? I said only for a brief minute and that we were being rushed. He told us to come over to the other side of the fence and wait and he said something to Kat and she came over and we got another picture. I had Erica the other winner take the picture. We were laughing because the camera was shaking from Erica being so nervous! So the lady that was holding Nena from earlier comes over and said hurriedly I'll take it. She did and it was the best one! Then Erica and her friend took theirs. Then I was telling Kat that my son loved Open Toes and Dangerous. (I forgot at the meet and greet so I had to tell her as I promised.) Then that lady again said I need to get her to the radio interview and I told Kat I loved the show and loved Mary Jane. She said thank you as she was being rushed away. So we went back to our seats and saw Kat come to the home plate area and the crowd was screaming, and the crowd on the field rushed to the fencing barricade to take pictures and try to get autographs. She sat down for a minute then they moved her to the 3rd base dugout for (what I found out later via posted pictures) Icee's. So then during the next break we see Kat's backup singers Melanie and Paulette come down our isle. They had family and/or friends sitting right in front of us. So I asked them if I could take a picture and told them how great they were! A few minute later we see Kat, Nick, Dorian, Melanie and Paulette in a luxury box the level above us. It looked like Kat was practicing dance moves for maybe her Love Story video? So I got video of that and her playing with Nena! It was cute. So we were talking amongst ourselves saying I thought they were rushing her off right way to the airport. So I called Dorian and asked if we could come up for a couple minutes to talk to her since we never really got time other than the picture. I said look to your left as I was waving so he could see where our seats were. He said I'll call you back. Then Hillary Duff started her show while Kat and gang were watching. So I was hoping when Hillary was done he would call me back. Well they left during the show and we never saw them again. At least I gave it one last try! So as we were leaving, I called Dorian again and left a message to say thank you and that I had, had a great time! The original email said "Your ticket and exclusive meet and greet have been made possible by Katharine McPhee and McPheeClub.com." So THANK YOU KATHARINE AND MCPHEECLUB.COM! I had a blast!!!
