So it looks like the show will air sometime the week of September 13th, probably on friday the 17th. I'm the guy in the tan/white/blue vertical striped shirt and pimp-daddy 70s sun glasses sitting behind the fender rhodes with the mac powebook on my right. The day was by far the longest day of shooting in my life, and i've done a few of these. We got to the studio at 6AM to do the soundcheck, did like 20 runthroughs for the cameras to rehearse, then sat in the green room. and sat. and sat. They do a weeks worth of shows at a time, so we sat through like 4 other tapings before we got up there to do our thing.
We rocked. Absolutely killed it. The whole time, I was watching the crowd and thinking, "This is Meredith's new audience. She doesn't have to pretend she's 19 anymore - she's now selling to the walmart and starbucks crowd." And you know what? that's pretty cool. I like those fans better. They come to shows, spend dough, buy CDs, and if the like you, they never stop liking you.
