Today, D.J. and I went down to the Esplanade to attend a meet-the-press session with Rachael Yamagata. Unfortunately, it was a short session because the schedule was extremely tight and the Esplanade management were downright strict about this.
Alas, this meant I was not able to get a photo with her nor get her to autograph a CD for me and my friend (sin). I was thinking of getting it autographed as a gift but it wasn't to be. Sorry sin, maybe next time?
Other than the downers, I am glad to have finally met her in person. Rachael is very purrty in person and as D.J. said, she had a "natural beauty" that glowed when she came to the foyer. During the session, she seemed down-to-earth and had some hilarious things to say. All in all, I enjoyed the short time I met her and I was seriously close to her; I was in the second row which was much closer than I expected.
I'll be going for her concert tomorrow where I'm expecting a much "rockier" set since she did mention her band. It'll be interesting to hear her new music. D.J. and I will probably come up with an hour's worth of Rachael Yamagata-related (or less I think, maybe half an hour) including the interview where D.J. and I got both of our questions answered. Heh. Rachael Yamagata answered my question!
The show will probably be broadcast in 2 weeks' time in SMU Campus Radio. Tune in for more details folks!

Oh sweetie! Thanks for thinking about me! I so wish I was there. Sounds like it was amazing.
It was pretty amazing. I tried getting one for you after the concert but they were trying to get everyone to meet Rachael so they only allowed one autograph per person....
Oh well.. next time!
