An Elliott Fan's Blog

My tribute to the one contestant in the history of American Idol who touched the heart of America simply by being himself--Elliott Yamin.

On 27-Jun-2006 The Elliott Station achieved the #14 spot (top 10%) of most-listened-to Pop Stations on Live365.com. Of overall most-listened-to overall stations on Live365.com we're at #575 (of 7105 total stations). Thank you for listening-in EFans and helping to support "Da Man!"

Pilgrimage To Richmond

I've finally done all I need to do to make the trip out to see Elliott's first solo concert at the Virginia State Fair on 8-Oct-2006. This is what I've done ...
  1. Bought a ticket for the Elliott Concert
  2. Reserved a room at the Holiday Inn North in Richmond, VA
  3. Bought a ticket for the JDRF Fundraiser dinner at the Holiday Inn
  4. Scheduled a business trip to coincide with the events there so airline tickets are done.
  5. Told my wife. She actually thought that this was funny. She's going on her own pilgramage to Belton, Texas in November.
  6. Entered the JDRF walk-a-thon. If you'd like to sponsor me let me know via email. You can donate as little as $1.00. It's a 3 mile walk.

So why am I doing all this? I guess it boils down to the fact that I'm a fan of da man. Would I do this for anyone else. I wouldn't even do this to go see the President.

It must be ... fan-aticism.

Anybody else going?
