We were still looking at him from the side, but there were no obstacles to look around. MSidolfan I was sitting at the table next to where they brought you to sit (I was next to the speaker). we were wondering what was going on when they set up those 10 chairs there.

Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Friend Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I have not had a chance to read this thread but I just wanted to say I finally have my videos of Clay singing up at you tube!!!! I have the whole auction too but need to edit it. Here is the link to my playlist: Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/vi...play_lis...FBDBCE65A37901 That link isn't working. Let's see if this works: http://www.youtube.com/vi...y_list?p=CBFBDBCE65A37901 I'm not much of a recapper and everything I want to say I'm sure has already been said by now. This was my first Gala and it won't be my last! What a beautful event! ♥ Last Edited By: tay71md 10/22/08 5:44 PM. Edited 1 times.

He asked us to hang all of our purses on his arm and pointed to where we could collect them after the pictures were taken. He looked pretty silly. He said, "It's a good thing I wore black, it goes with everything." I think I have a crush on Jerome...

I was going to post tonight and ask if anyone had taken pictures of the lobby full of fans in a line and/or of the entire Gala room that also shows the screens etc. I forgot my camera that night and missed out on all those kind of photos. Thanks again!

Now if someone knows the order of the songs Clay sang, I would appreciate that. I was there, but guess my mind must have been somewhere else when he was singing. I think Im correct on some though. 1. 2. 3. Everything I Dont Need 4. On My Way Here (?) 5. Right Here Waiting.
