present for the flist: American Idol!
May. 28th, 2009 11:17 pmPREFACE: THIS IS NOT MY FANDOM, OKAY? IDEK, GUYS. You are all ENABLERS and I am, apparently, Far Too Easily Persuaded. :P
MissionBINA Today Show Taping: success! Or, well, relative success. *g*
( Cut for giant picspam of giant! )
Annnnd that's a wrap! (Except for the FOOTNOTES OF GEEKERY, obvs.)
Adam vs. Kris fangirling from a non-AI-fan perspective:
- Screamage: Approximately 50/50, volume-wise (no way for me to tell numbers-wise).
- Signage: hard to say as I couldn't see all of the signs; if not 50/50, then maybe 60/40?
- Paparazzi: Horrible picture-taking times all around. Worse when Adam was out than when Kris was, at least where I was standing.
Overall attendance observations:
- Guy to girl ratio: 45/55 (40/60 tops), from what I could see.
- VERY LARGE AGE SPECTRUM- grandparents to teeny kids. I'm not even gonna try to break this one down.
- Definitely a lot of out-of-town presence, although there were plenty of native New Yorkers. Harvard girls aside, there was one particularly memorable group wearing nuclear-phlegm-green Indiana tshirts. (Effective for head-count purposes, but talk about an eyesore.)
