Aaargh! The storm knocks out my internet for a night and look what I miss! Kari, I am so happy for you! This couldn't have happened to a nicer person and I'm so happy a big fan gets this opportunity! Make sure you get your camera early so you can practice! Nothing worse than getting handed the camera a minute before and having no idea what to do. And in this case it's good the Goos are on first, because if you use up your memory card and batteries on the Goos, then oops, no room for CC. :D Yay!! Can't wait to hear how your night went! |

Title: Re: Guess what i won? Post by blessed_by_goo on Aug 1st, 2006, 10:18am Hey you guys thanks for all the congrats... Went to the Mohegan show last night, met the guys. I gave John my Rosary. I told him his music has been such a blessing to me and I would so be honorored if he'd wear it. He said this is really beautiful and said he'd be happy to. But he musta left it in his other pants cuz he never wore it, but wondering if he thought I meant for tonight in NH. I told him I was the contest winner from that interview he did and he remebered and said it was awesome that I won it. I told him.... yeah so when you see me up there taking pics tomorrow...just know I'm no critic.....so no dirty looks ok? He laughed and said ok and that was it. I gave a little boy behind me a really nice pic of John...it was his birthday. I told him I would tell John it was his birthday and ask him to sign it. NO personal items were supposed to be signed. But I knew JOhn would. I said John ..... this is his 1st show ever and it's his B-day will you sign his pic and John said absolutly....shook his hand and the kid was so elated! Anyway enough ranting for now I will review the show when I get back home with all the details from todays NH gig. BTW.... Mohegan inticketing tickets were AWESOME I got second row floor... was 8 feet from John.... AWESOME seats!!!! I got really great pics too..... Lator gators just wanted to give ya a quicky!!!! Really stoked about tonight.... gotta go..... ~ Kari |

What a nice thing for you to do by having John autograph that pic for the little boy. I'm sure you made his day. Glad to hear your IM seats were great. You're on a two day whirl wind for sure ... lucky lady. This is the year of Kari! All your patience paid off. 3 M&Gs in one year!!!! Lucky lucky for sure.

Title: Re: Guess what i won? Post by the red o on Aug 2nd, 2006, 10:34pm Purely speculation here - Kari was such a fabulous fan/photographer that the Goos asked her to go on the road with them. �I suspect we'll hear from her in September. |
