Matt was totally awesome tonight, the cellcast was so clear when he was performing Georgia he TOTALLY blew me away!! I got to see Ray Charles years ago live (in a small venue no less than 10 feet away) singing the same song and I thought Matt would have made the legend proud doing Georgia on My Mind the way he did. There is no way he is going to slip through the cracks…….the boy will get signed FOR SURE!!!! Can’t possibly imagine what he sounds like live - no wonder people are going crazy for him. This old lady has become one of his newest fans! Go Mattie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Listening to him gave me goosebumps for sure…

The people in Arkansas were too busy power-texting for Kris to even notice our Matty G before. [Ha-ha old joke about the votes]!
Yay! More new Matt fans from this concert! It must be The Power of the Pants tm LOL!
I'm surprised that some of the fans still didn't know that Matt was singing The Black Crowes song because everyone's set list has been publicized since July 5th. I guess not everyone at the concert is as obsessed as we are, listening to the shows via cell phones!

What planet have these people been on the last month!!?? Seems like they had no idea what songs Matt (and others I suppose) were singing on tour--of course maybe they are just casual viewers--- unlike any of us here?

My friend was wearing navy toe polish and I said she looked like Adam. She said Who's Adam? Huh? Isn't she spending every free minute obsessing about Matt and the AI tour? Isn't that the only thing really happening in the world now?

Another review from MJ's:
Quote :
I can’t say enough good things about Matt. Matt, son, you have came out of your shell! That’s all I can say when comparing your performances on the show to tonight. And my gosh, his piano skills are second to none. I would definitely pay money to see Matt in concert again. Matt, be sure you come back to AK! (whoops, that’s AR, that’s what I get for following your tweets!)
Once again another converted fan who would go see Matt in a solo concert! Yay. I can't believe how so many people did not pay attention to Matt during the show and now they are all over him. I guess the vote splitting was too big. There were too many guys this season and that hurted Matt. Kris just survived each week and gained the votes of the booted contestant. Kris is talented don't get me wrong, he always picked the right song for each theme and never got nervous unlike Matt. JMHO. But the reality is that Matt G has waaay more raw talent than Kris.
Anyways.. apparently Kris got an unprecedented ovation last night that lasted like 5 minutes straight before he could even start his set. Wow. All I hope right now is that Matt is treated to something similar when he comes to Michigan. He deserves it sooo much.
I am just so happy that Matt is gaining new fans along the way. That's what the tour is all about and that is what could help him land a record deal soon. Crossing fingers.!

Matt was also AWESOME. I never really got on his bandwagon because I was always supporting Kris and Adam, but man that guy is entertaining. He was a ton of fun. **Let me also note that each singer, including the next three, gave a shout out to Kris somewhere in their set and the crowd went wild. It was great.** The little group medley of the bottom six was great. Matt and Scott tickling the ivories was fantastic. I was excited they put that in the show because I was disappointed when that was left out of the finale, for whatever reason.

My biggest pleasant surprise of the night was Matt, as someone else mentioned earlier. I was never a fan of his on the show, but he was an AWESOME performer, one of the best of the night.

Mattyg93...I hope the same thing and I bet you anything it will be just as crazy if not crazier for Matt..Michigan LOVES him!! Wooo hooo!! Can't wait to hear that video or better yet I'm hoping I'm gonna be there for one of the MI shows to see it in person..I know I will be literally crying for him!!

mattyg93, I hate to keep harping back to why people didn't vote for Matt during the season, but I really do agree with your theory. It seemed like a lot of the viewers who actually voted were fans of either Adam, Danny or Kris first. I noticed that a lot of these people listed Allison and Matt as their second or third choices. I think that's why Allison and Matt ended up in the bottom two sometimes-- not because their performances were terrible, but because people were caught up in the Adam vs. Danny battle. Like others have said before, Kris was more consistent during the course of the season, so he "deserved" to win. [I'm not trying to deny Kris worked hard to win.] But I'll always see Matt as having more natural talent and potential than Kris!
And I'm sure that Matt will get the hero's welcome at both of the Michigan shows. Matt always mentioned Kalamazoo/Michigan when he was on the show, and he is making everyone proud with his rousing performances!

mattyg93 posted an excerpt from RISALEA'S Little Rock Recap from MJ's blog. I know this lady was a huge Kris fan all along, but I think she's got a crush on Matt now, as well. I noticed that she posted over 20 solo pictures of him on her Photobucket page and a couple of him signing autographs after the show!
Thank you to Risalea-- Matt looks so YUMMY in all these pictures! I don't want to re-post all of her Matt pictures in this thread, but you should check out the photobucket page. WOW-WOW-WOW! Matt was looking so fine after the concert, in the yellow t-shirt and the new fedora!
I find this angle to be interesting...
And here he is on "Georgia"
The end of "You Found Me"
