Harmonies for Haiti

So last night I went to the Harmonies for Haiti concert that Chelsea Staub from the Disneychannel show JONAS was hosting. All procedes went to help out in Haiti, which I thought was incredibly awesome, most concerts you go to only half the procedes go to help. Me and Mad got inside around 7:00, show started at 7:30. Ran into Tyler (Hilton) and his dad before the show. So we were standing there, then girls started screaming and looking up and I looked up and behold, there was little Jonas Brother, Nick Jonas. Okay, I'm not Jonas Brother fan anymore, but that boy is too darn cute! I couldn't help but stare at him (is that weird?)! He looked my way a lot, no joke, and there was no one behind me. It was weird. I was going to go and meet him, but then I decided not to because I didn't want to miss Drake (Bell)'s set so I didn't. I regret it now since Drake didn't go on until like 30 min after Nick left. Chelsea came on and talked to the audience. Throughout the whole concert they had different disneychannel, Nickelodeon, ABC family & even the dude from Twilight speaking in between acts. My favorite was probably Nick from '10 Things I Hate About You' and the guy who plays his friend on the show. They came out and sang a Ricky Martin song which was friggin hilarious! Normally, I would talk about the people who played, but there were like 14 bands/people who played, half of them I don't even know about. All the songs were too depressing for me! They were really slow and stuff, they were starting to lose the crowd. During a band's set me and Maddie were standing and I was tweeting and I loooked right next to me and was taking double takes, it looked like Cody Linley who play(s, ed) on Hannah Montana as Jake Ryan and Hoot with Brie Larson. After looking hard and telling mad that I thought it was him. It was. I was standing next to him for like 20 minutes, he had his arms wrapped around his girlfriend and they looked totally cute! I was going to ask for a pic, but I didn't want to intrude so I decided not to. So at like 9 something Drake FINALLY came on! I was in heaven. No joke. You have no idea how much I love this boy. Although, he only played like two songs, I was more than glad with that! Those two songs were AWESOME! He left the stage and I walked around for a bit. So an hour later, I was tired, and we had a long drive home and Mad was really sleepy. I wanted to stay for Tyler's set, but I didn't want to keep Mad waiting so I just stayed for half of his 'Sunset Blvd' song. As I was starting to leave, I was bummed that I didn't get to meet Drake again, since he and Tyler were the only ones I came for. So I was starting to leave and I walked up the three steps and went toward the exit when I looked to my left and who did i see? None other than Drake Bell himself! On the inside I was FREAKING OUT! He was talking with some of his friends, I was afraid to walk upto him and ask for a pic, but I was thinking to myself "the worst he could do was say no" and I would regret never asking. So I slowly walked upto him and tapped him on the shoulder and asked for a picture and told him I flew all the way out from North Carolina to see him and he goes "Are you fucking serious!? That's so awesome!" Then he asked for my name (ironically, the three times I've met him before, I never told him my name). We talked for a bit about his new music, his old CD's, tour, etc. He turned around and told his friends that I flew out for the concert, he was so excited that someone flew that far to see him play. It was totally cute! He could not have been any nicer! He was definitely a little drunk! haha. I was talking to him like face to face, literally our faces were like a few inches apart and I could smell the alcahol. haha. His friend asked if I wanted them to take the photo so I said yes. We ended up taking like three pictures because his friend who was also might I add a little drunk couldn't get the picture to take. So the first time I was in the middle of talking telling him to hold down the button, the second time Drake was making fun of him and telling him he's a horrible picture taker, then the third time the picture was good, a little blurry, but I'll take it! So he thanked me for coming out and I thanked him and he gave me a hug (I died). Then I left.

Overall the concert was really good and I'm glad that I got a chance to be there, especially since all the procedes go to Haiti. Definitely worth the trip!! =) I only took a few pics (mostly of Drake) since my camera wasn't allowed and I had to sneak the pictures. ha.
