Anthony's EC encounter

My First Encounter - July 21, 2001 (N'sync Pop Odyssey Tour, Oakland, CA) The first time I met Eden's Crush as a group was on the day I was going to see them live in concert opening for N'sync's Pop Odyssey Tour. Before the concert even started, my cousin and I were walking around and checking out the radio station thingy where they had contests etc.. so then while we were gonna go out of the 94.9 radio station thingy we saw a booth that said make a poster for Eden's Crush when they perform tonight.. and my cousin and I already made one so what was the use haha since there were a lot of peeps in line.. but all of a sudden a white limo pulled up and then guess who's head I saw?! I saw Nicole and Maile's face and I was like "Is that who I think that is?" and then my cousin was like "OMG yes it is" it's Eden's Crush!" I was so excited and shocked at the same time. Then they went to the booth to do a surprise autograph signing! So ran in line to let meet them and get an autograph and let them sign our EC shirts we bought at another booth. So while in line, we were like "We love you guys so much!!" and then out of all of the noise from other people my girl Ivette smiled at us and said "We love you guys to!!" We were about to faint, but we had to stay up to meet the girls haha.. so when it was out turn I was completely speechless but I got a "Hi! I love ya guys so much and your music rocks! You guys are such a big inspiration to me!" They all said "aww.. thanks man! we love you to! thanks for supporting us!" Ivette was like "Hi Baby!!" lol.. when I first got in line it was funny I was hella blushing.. so they all gave me hugs and I was so happy to have got to meet them cuz I thought I would've been able to the following day since they were doing another autograph signing and an acapella performance at planet hollywood in frisco! So when the show started at 7 pm.. the first act was this one guy then Eden's Crush and we were screaming for them and shouting go EC!! We were so excited and happy to see our idols on stage doing what they do best! They waved at me and I thought I was gonna faint once again hahaha.. but I remained my coo and I was singing all the songs they performed with my cuzzo and we had a great time that night and I will never forget that day when I first met the girls! Such a memorable day!!
