Dang, Taylor was in Dallas and I didn't know it? I'M SO UPSET!!!

And I haven't heard the Ford commercial either.

The day before I went to TX I had seen footage of Taylor arriving home, so I suspect he was just changing planes at DFW, just like me.

I am still laughing at my reaction... I had spent part of the flight listening to Taylor in iTunes and watching a few videos from Idol performances on my laptop. To turn around and see him walking toward me was such a surprise. He was wearing a driving cap and I'm thinking he actually boarded the plane and probably walked right by me. If only I'd been in an aisle seat and paying attention! lol

They are talking this morning on local Fox news about the Idols being in town to rehearse for the tour.

Yeah, tonight's Tonight Show!

Bonza...I can understand why you yelled....thank God you didn't do it in the airport!
I've had that reaction once in my life...one of my greatest heroes was in town delivering a speech and I was lucky enough to get to go hear him....After the speech, someone I knew that was working the dinner knew how much I admired this man, so they grabbed me by the arm, pulled me backstage and took me up to him and introduced me. Talk about dumbstruck....to this day I can't remember saying anything though my friend said I did fine, but 20 years later, I can still remember how I felt like I was in a fog, when I shook his hand!

Ooops, after I read Bonza's post, I forgot the original reason I came on this site...sad news folks, www.graycharles.com is shutting down I have loved this site since I discovered it, not only is their news on Taylor, but I have discovered some great new artists and other tidbits....the guy who has been running it is burned out, and I can hardly blame him...there will be no new news on it, and he's not sure how long the site will be up, as it is....so you might want to check it out for old times sake, and for those of you who have not visited it, here's your chance before it's gone

I'm sad about graycharles too, Keldogg. It has been the best place to get info on Taylor as well as the other soul artists. There was a nice feel to the place, too. I hadn't realized just how labor-intensive the place was for the sitemaster.

The video of his appearance on Leno last night is up. Kevin Spacey seemed to really like him, too. It was a fun interview! His performance of DIMYP was fantastic. You'll be happy to know that he bought that new couch. Lol!

That was a great interview! Taylor looked good and he and Jay really seem to get along well. I think one of my favorite things about Taylor is that he doesn't seem to take himself too seriously.

Yeah! I saw the show last night. Both Jay and Kevin treated him well. It was nice for Taylor to compliment Spacey first on his portrait of that other singer(Gee, I probably shouldn't talk w/o remembering his name first!).
Jay and Tay had a few nice jokes. But it was so good to hear Taylor able to improvise a bit on the DIMYP.

I realized the reason for that song this time again, but was hoping for a 2nd song. Alas, the tread off of seeing him regarded as an equal by Kevin and Jay is also cool!

Eta: Bobby Darin was the name of the singer Kevin did.

Bonza, was it hunter-green alligator shoes last night? What kind of shoes did Kevin have on? I didn't even look.

Mak, I felt that the thing about the couch now is just a punch line. He said somewhere else he had given up his apt. in Birmingham now(looked like a house to me but he's been calling it an apartment). Since he's looking forward to being on the road and whatever else the West coast may do for his career, he was fine being "homeless" right now. Well, I guess it could be stashed at dad's place or something.

Can I take Taylor home with me?

Taylor was SO adorable on Leno last night! They seem like they are really becoming friends and truly like each other.

note: I forgot to grab the People Magazine with Taylor as the hottest bachelor when I went grocery shopping this week. But guess what? Crabby just walked in from filling the gas tank at 7-11 and tossed a magazine on my desk and "Here, it was last one sitting on their stand."

awwwwww :-)

I loved them adding the sax to Taylor's song. I think he sounded awesome!! Loved the Rita interview too. He's just such a nice guy.

I wonder how come Kevin Spacey drew a mustache on Taylor's CD cover?...LOL I thought that was so funny when they showed him doing that. Almost as if he and Taylor are buddies and it's something one buddy would do to another :-)

You guys were talking earlier about the black bracelet. You were right! It says in the People Magazine thing "What's with the wristband? Hicks wears no jewelry except a black elastic band his left wrist. 'It's meaningful' he says. 'but I swore I would never tell anybody what it means'."


and I am still not comfortable with People Magazine helping him find his dream woman...LOL

Graycharles has posted a 3-part phone interview he had with Taylor this week and has posted a transcript. It is AWESOME!! Real questions that have substance and fantastic answers from our boy Tay.

Great minds think alike Keldogg!! Hopefully, GC will stay around on a periodic basis since he landed this interview. I love the whole way it came about and how Taylor called him!

Are you still loving your Under the Radar CD?

Beach...I just finished listening to it and the new Jack Johnson CD before I came onto the site...I'm a little concerned that I am wearing it out...but it's okay, cuz I have 2 extras that I bought, still in their wrapper!
