Chapter 9. Anoop scorns flying panties.
After the crowd gave him loud, mad props to his Mad performance, he said something like “Thanks y’all, bla, bla, bla, now let’s change it up a little bit.” And moved onto My Preroigative.
The Philly benches strategized about the “operation MP panty drop” for quite some time. We saw how much publicity and excitement were created when people threw bras and panties at Adam in the beginning of the tour. And the other day, Sarver got a panty and he was so happy and proud! There was NO WAY these Philly Benches were gonna let our Diva BB down!!! During the preparation phase, we discussed the timing (decided on right after he gets up from the glory note backbend), and items (decided on thongs/panties and large bath poufs). YES WE ARE STRATEGIC AND ON THE BALL.
But I, as a somewhat of a failed pimp, could not find the Carolina thongs I bought at Filene’s Basement for $1.99 each while I was in Washington DC. One of the pairs even had a clef-like bow tie on it. So it was up to Sara’s panties and Nene’s poufs.
Because Sara was sitting further away from the stage, Diana was enlisted as the executer for Sara’s panties. She would approach Anoop from the stage left, while Nene was to approaching from Stage right. Meanwhile, Nene’ sister was to roll her eyes.
My Prerogative, even though it is not the most vocally challenging song he might do, is the perfect song to bring out Anoop’s boyish charm and irresistible sex appeal. HE ABSOLUTELY PWNED THAT STAGE BY CRISSCROSSING ALL OVER THE STAGE, URGING EVERYONE TO GET UP AND MOVE, MAKING THE ENTIRE FEMALE AUDIENCE DEMOGRAPHIC SCREEM WITH DELIGHT, AND EVENTUALLY CAUSING MANY OCTO-MOM SITUATIONS TO OCCUR.
Immediately after he did his glory note while showcasing his strong core muscles by back bending and getting up without missing a beat, Diana launched Sara’s panties. They made it on stage! However, Anoop, the cool rock star that he is, completely scorned it. But you know what? What’s important is that DIANA GAVE HIM AN OPPORTUNITY TO SCORN THE PANTIES LIKE A BOSS. That was hot.
After thatn I went into a totally screaming my head off situation, and I cannot remember anything that happened after the back bend recovery and the middle of Sarver’s solo part during the Top 6-10 medley.

Hi! Yoko, thank you so much for the wonderful recap. When I first watched Daisykary's video one of the first thing that i noticed is his new shirt and I was -OMG! HE DID DRESSED UP FOR YOU GUYS! I'm with you, thank @god he did not wear the blue hoodie. : )

Chapter 10. Anoop Desai has upped his stage presence game by a mileAfter Anoop’s MP Backbend/glory note, my brain shut down somewhat, and did not come back to its full functioning state (as full as it could be while being in the same area as ANOOP DESAI OHMIGOD) until Sarver started singing his solo part in the medley. Thank god that was just in time for me to get ready for Beggin, the object of my platonic one-way crush. You have NO IDEA how obsessed I am over Beggin. Yes I love Beggin so much I wanna marry it. I am a Beggin stan. Anoop Desai stands, walks, dances, sings, and raps LIKE A BOSS. And lately, he’s been pimping Lil LIKE A BOSS to the point of his grinding is getting just a tad bit of a potential #inappropriate-ness if Mr. Lil and their kids were in the audience. And after all this hype, the real, live Beggin was better than I ever imagined. The silky yet powerful vocal at the beginning immediately suck me into the wickedly sexy world of Beggin. I was mesmerized by every single move that Anoop made. He really does look very good on stage. He simply belongs there. He is tall and lean, with long limbs and beautiful head/neck/shoulder line. He looks so good while standing, walking, and dancing on the stage. vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=62268109 (partial) Remember his appearance with Amos Lee several months ago? His singing of ~~~Fiiine sense of humor~~~ part? His voice was absolutely beautiful as it always had but he stood on stage looking like a little bit unsure of what to do with his long legs and arms while other vocalists were taking turns. Since then, he has upped his stage presence game SO MUCH that he’s not in the same league any more. (I’m not gonna mention the Blue Hoodie…) When Beggin was over, I stood on my seat, turned around to find where Anjana was sitting, and screamed at her: “HOLYSHIT THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!” I am sorry if anyone was offended by their young daughters hearing a grown woman saying a bad word in public. But then, later that evening, your daughters would witness Adam Lambert make out with the entire audience, so what I said was nothing, relatively speaking. Then I hugged Diana and Anjana until they would start to feel uncomfortable. I wanted to hug other philly benches so bad, too, but they were not near my seat.

Chapter 11. The American Idol wears Anoop Dogg wristband on stage
Fast forward to Kris’ set.
I loved his set. I really didn’t pay attention to his songs while he was on the show so I didn’t know what to expect. But his set was really good!
However, the highlight of his set was the fact that he came on stage with the AnoopDogg wristband on! It is the one I handed to him at the barricade on behalf of Janice P. In the envelope, I had the wristband, Anoop button, and a little note explaining that the wristbands benefit Eve Carson Scholarship Fund at UNC, and a generous fan Janice P. contributed some funds so Kris could have one. What a sweet guy he is, to show his support right away! I think I really like Kris. Watch 0:21.
During Hey Jude, all the idols came back on stage. Anoop was as cute as he can be. He said something into Allison’s ear, and they giggled. Don’t stop believin’ was nice, with lots of Anoop solo time. Oh they didn’t quite do the Manoop jig. Instead, they did some weird shaking of their booties, and that was it! WTF?

Chapter 12. Jolly Philly BenchesAfter the show, back at the hotel, we sat on the beds and reviewed all the epicness that occurred on this day while sipping Fanbasetini. We talked about HOW GORGEOUS Anoop was, and HOW HOT he was on stage. My benches made fun of me for totally flailing at the barricade. Yeah. I know. I am so not up to the task. We reviewed every word he said at the barricade. We will remember the barricade sceene forever! Life is just good from here on for us. We were so drunk, not so much from the drinks but from the emotional high. We were such a happy bunch of benches! You know, when you are drunk you get brutally honest? So in the hotel room, we were brutally honestly crushing on Chris Melly. We are officially Chris Melly stans. Squeeeeee. Anoop better watch out if he wants to keep us. Haha. However, the strategic, on the ball Anoop pimps that we are, we also had a brutally honest brainstorming of how to pimp our diva BB. We talked about how we could further improve the Street Team website, how we could get more people to get excited about Anoop, and how we can reach out. We talked about our dreams for Anoop, how he should get a kickass record deal, and tour the world. We talked about how exciting it will be to all meet again at the NC State Fair in October. And most importantly, we talked about how amazing it was that Anoop Desai brought us together and we clicked like we’ve known each other forever. It was truly a magical afternoon and night. I would like to tell Anoop: “Thanks for everything. You allowed us to cross our paths, and as a result, we have made great friends. Don’t even think that you can get rid of us now. You are stuck with us forever.E PS: Kary Anoopified the hotel elevator hall a bit. My Mob Family:

GUYS I'm speechless and so overwhelmed by all the love for Anoop and to be able to make it on FOX NEWS is the kind of stir and impact you'll had on them. This is one of the biggest moments of pride and honour you'll have made possible to everyone of us. SO LETS KEEP CELEBRATING IT!

Chapter 13. Some random afterthoughts- There was a report that Megan Joy showed up at Cleveland barricade wearing the wristband from Janice P. I'd love to see a pic of that if anyone finds it. ETA: Janice found a pic! - Anjana's cousin and hubby are both cuties. I didn't get to meet them and I am very sad about that. - Diana is an awesome singer. OHMIGOD. I'd heard her speaking voice before (on Anoopcast and such) but had been missing her singing part. Wow. - Nene's sister initially thought we were crazy stanning so hard. However, as soon as Anoop came out to the barricade, she quickly gave in. She could not resist the gorgeousness that is Anoop Desai. - The thongs and thank you gifts I misplaced inside Nene's car have been located. I will mail them to Kary so she can do simething with them at the Reading show she is going.

I can't even begin to tell you how amazing it was to read Yoko's/Nene's recaps and see all the pics and vids. This was one of the best days of my life because not only did we get to meet Anoop, but I got to meet an incredible group of sweet, kind, compassionate women who I want to CM so hard.
I find it difficult to put into words how I feel about all of this. It really is a true sisterhood and I am so THANKFUL that I've met all you wonderful women here - and I mean ALL of you.

WEll i finally was able to read through the whole thread. It was kinda a crazy weekend after coming back from philly. I will try my best to put into words the epicness that was the AI Philly Concert/tailgate Well first of all, I showed up at my hotel on Wednesday at about 4pm. I decided to book a reservation to get on one of those trolley's that tour the tourist part of the city. So i head downstairs to the hotel's restaurant, enjoy a nice dinner and a few beers by myself LOL and then took a taxi to downtown philly which was about $25!!!! NEVER AGAIN The tour was nice so then i start my 1.5 hour journey in finding the right subway to get on. *sigh* i walked A LOT, but i finally made it to my hotel in one piece. it was my first time ever riding the subway Thursday afternoon, i'm running late but i finally get a few texts saying the girls are waiting in the lobby! I turned in my key and was going towards elevators when suddenly there they appear!! I believe it was sara, anjana and yoko =D we looked like crazy girls squeeing over each other and our outfits and posters n such LOL. it was great We had a few ppl missing but we made our way to the arena where the barricades were easily located. We settled in our little spot where we hung all of our posters, banners and UNC flags. You couldnt miss us even if you wanted to. We did get a lot of stares because we did look kinda crazy hahaha. we played anoop's song for everyone to hear, we played anoopardy, we handed out cards and buttons and tried to pimp the WB's. People at first were kinda iffy towards us but I think with time they all warmed up to us because they saw how much we genuinely loved anoop and were only there to just spread his name around. Kris and Matt came out first and matty as always is such a riot. I got him to sing "big papa" again to me haha, he's really funny! Sarver came out and i was pretty into our conversation. I told him that i flew in from texas and that im the one that gave him the LSU cap. He said he'd worn it the day before =) I asked him when he was gonna run for gov of texas and he said he's been getting asked that a lot LOL. Well i said I'd vote for him and that I cannot wait to buy his album (which is all true by the way. i really love sarver, he's awesome) While sarver was talking to us, anoop came out...most of the girls screamed at his face haha poor dude, but its all good. michael is very aware of himself and the situation, im sure it didn't phase him one bit. Although because i was so into Michael and I's conversation, when i turned around anoop was like right in front of me and i kinda freaked out a little bit haha. i told him to say hello to the buscast and i totally failed at telling him my name. then he woulda recognized me, cause he was looking at me like hey i know you. I didn't realize he had headed straight towards us until i saw the video. He took his time with us and signed/took pictures with all of us. I've said this once and I'll say it again. If you want some good anoop time, then you better go all decked out in anoop gear cause he will make sure you at least get his autograph and/or pic with him. Anoop was so sweet as always, he looked genuinely happy to be there. he got sooo many gifts from us. I tried my best to take it all in because in dallas, everything happened so quickly that i barely remember the whole thing. This time i kinda took a deep breath and remembered the whole 5 something minutes he was there. it was amazing to see my american idol right before me once again For those few minutes he was with us, it was as if the world had stopped at its tracks. I don't even remember thinking for one second that it was hot while he was there. I didn't remember that my feet were hurting or that i was thirsty. it was as if time had stopped just for that special moment. At the concert i'm trying to take in every anoop moment while he is on stage. I'd already been given the panties to throw at him on stage and I had decided that right after his "mad" song while it was still dark, that i would run to the front so taht way secuirty wouldnt stop me. (side note: security was really good that night. they let A LOT of ppl walk up to the front to take pictures and video. they were not hard on us at all) So as soon as im at the front i told some girls taht towards the end of the song if they will let me get in front so i can throw something at anoop and they were perfectly fine with it. So then anoop starts singing MP and I'm immediately at awe cause he is SOOOO CLOSE to me, and when he did that "but i dont give a damn" my mouth literally dropped open and i covered my mouth with both hands and my eyes wide open as if i'd been spooked by a ghost or something. all i could say was OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG and the girls in front of me couldnst stop laughing at me...they totally loved the fact taht i was completely stanning over anoop. They were so cool about it and they even said that anoop waved at them So the moment of truth comes....here comes the glory note....he starts bending and there goes throw #1 SUCCESS, it made itself on stage but anoop didn't see it LOL so i had to make sure that my next throw anoop would see it. I had to time it perfectly, so as he's lifting himself up from that bending backwards thing he does, i throw the 2nd pantie on stage LOL. this time he sees it YESSSSSSSSSS, but he looks at them on the ground and continues with his peformance hahahahaha. he did say tho "i appreciate it yall" so maybe he was talking about the thongs, who knows hahaha. I went to the frt of stage for Beggin, hoping i'd catch a manoop jacket drop. It looked like they were about to do it but then they didn't =( booooooo The concert was totally awesome, they all blow me away. It was an epic night. those are the only words i can find honestly

What can i say about my fellow #phillytailgate benches? They are awesome! they are some of the most genuine ppl i've ever met and their dedication to anoop is beyond amazing to me. Anoop is so lucky to have fans like them....he has it good yall. Yoko (our glue) when this whole anoop thing started with me, I had NOOOOO clue as how to get gifts to him. If it weren't for you, I'm not sure if any of those things would have happened. I didn't have the slightest idea as how to go about those things. I'm so happy that you're an anoop fan. You're an incredible assett to the troopers and we're lucky to have you. The way you squee'd over anoop was as if i was watching a 12 year old totally fan girling over her biggest celebrity crush LOL. Thank you Yoko for all you do. Anjana, you are soooooooo sweet and caring. You gave me a hug as if we'd known each other all our lives. Your warm reception towards me was heartfelt. I enjoyed our alone talk while in the room and I'm guessing it made u see me a little differently of the things I spoke of. Made you see why i do the crazy things i do LOLOL. Oh and that little hug you gave me during danny's set was very touching. Those weren't tears of sadness taht were coming out of me, but rather those were tears of joy. Because even through the worst moments in my life...i didn't let those things bring me down and affect my future. It was perfect timing to what danny was saying, never let tragedy define your future. Again, thank you. ok its my lunch time. i'll finish when i come back
