Yesterday was one of my best days as a Mavs ManiAAC. We got to perform with real Rockettes from New York.
I took off from work at 11 and then went to the Power House of Dance to practice with the ladies and to do a quick filming with the “Why” guy from Channel 8. My mom called and said, “Hey, you are on TV!” That is always fun to hear.
Here is a quick picture – but there are more on flickr.
Last night we performed with the Rockettes during the game and it was a hit. We high kicked our way into the heart of our fans and the Rockettes and I have never had so much fun performing before. With me in the picture is Samandra and Melissa, two Very, Very sweet gals that won me over with more than just great legs and big smiles.
On a separate note, I hear Ace got kicked off of American Idol last night… sorry to see him go, but my vote is for Paris and Taylor Hicks!

That’s pretty cool Eddo! And you’ve also seen where they normally perform – Radio City Music Hall.
Dancing with the Stars you are.

Lucky man.
Anyway, I hope to all hopes that “Cat”, as Ryan has affectionately taken to calling McFeeble, goes home next. I can’t stand her half-ass voice and fake smile any more.
My money’s still on Chris. Boy can sing, has the “look”, is mature… the whole package.

Okay, this may be a dumb question, but why are they wearing santa outfits in APRIL?!
Looks like you guys had a great time!
Lookin’ good, Edoo McLadies Man!

i hated Ace…. reminds me of Constantine… stop looking at me like that… just stop… please
I liked Chris from the start and Taylor… I heard Chris already got offers from The band FUEL

i just read your comment on saur’s blog about living together, that was such a great thought. very nice.
Stephanie · April 20, 2006 at 4:13 pm
Oh my gosh! How could I have missed the American Idol dialogue?
Okay: here goes.
#1: Ace. Boring nasally boy-band voice (nice falsetto though), VERY nice to look at (that was about all he had going for him unfortunately). Very pitchy, not much with the stage presence, because, like Steve said, HE STARES WAY TOO MUCH. Glad to see him gone.
#2: Chris is probably one of my most favorite Idols ever in life, because he just has the whole package. Whether he wins or loses makes absolutely no difference, because he’s going to go VERY VERY far.
#3: I’d like to see someone like Elliot or Taylor win, because they’re just so stinkin’ unique: I love both of thier styles equally (Taylor for his performance style, and Elliot for his vocal stylings – the boy can SING!!!)
And that is all I have to say on that issue. Thank you very much.

i’m with Steph – christmas in April? in 100 plus heat, and Eddie I got to mention AGAIN today that I know one of the ManiAACs, I felt so special and privildged, like i knew royalty or someone really famous or at least someone who is “known”

Ace was a loser. Good riddens. I like Chris… he rocks. Has an edge… definately cool.
Eddie Rocket.
It could be your new stage name.
Ben · April 20, 2006 at 4:46 pm
Eddie Rockette rather.
Edgy Mama · April 20, 2006 at 5:06 pm
Congrats! This has been a great gig for you! Cute girls and media exposure.
Heather · April 20, 2006 at 6:24 pm
That’s way cool, Eddo.
Ace had to go. He’s smarmy. I don’t need that white boy soulful look he kept trying to do. It gave me the heebies. And the jeebies.
Chris is da bomb. Yo, yo, yo, dog, so check it out – boy can rock and he’s got an awesome voice. He’s been my fav from the beginning. In terms of voice I say top three is Chris, Paris & Catherine.
I like Taylor as long as I don’t have to look at him – he’s got that Joe Cocker twitch that scares me. And the boy should NEVER, EVER, EVER dance. Not EVER.
Stephanie · April 20, 2006 at 10:01 pm
awww! That’s what I LOVE about Taylor! That and his smoky voice, and his versatility! He’s SO much fun!

I saw Ashleigh on Saturday and she said that she saw you at the Mavs game, but she didn’t realize that those were the REAL Rockettes.
We later discussed OUR Rockette imitation in Times Square.
She’s decided to go to Scotland with us. YEA!
