Thats awesome that thos girls had such a great experience meeting Matt.
I met him a few times during the NJ & NY shows, went to 3 lol and have to say he really is a kind, cool and fun guy and is so nice to his fans. I got a couple hugs, some pics, a rub on my hand, a personalized signature and he even sang my name to me ahhhh! Want more!

Awe - I am jealous!! That must have been quite the experience (sorry coulden't help but laugh just now because I made a typo (twice!!)writing the word "experience" - accidentally or maybe subconsciously I put an "s" in front of that word - sorry - had let you know lol)

Matt Oh my God. Matt was amazing! I had been pretty luke-warm about Matt during the season. But- I am really glad the judges saved Matt. He was awesome! There's something very likeable about him and his stage presence. I love how expressive and sexy his "Hard To Handle" was. He's got this dirty voice... that's very classic and enjoyable. He looked most in his element during "Georgia On My Mind". I absolutely loved his "You Found Me" when on Idol, so I was so happy he's singing it on tour. I couldn't believe the judge's responses to that. I thought his performance was awesome. Much improvement from the show and very likeable. I'll definitely buy his album.

Matt was never a favorite of mine but he did work the stage well and his key board talents are amazing, channeling old Jerry Lee Lewis riffs. While I enjoyed his version of Georgia, that number remains the one gem by Taylor Hicks that so far has not been beaten.
Sorry loved Taylor but Matt's a far superior vocalist...just sayin!

Fifth Place finalist Matt Giraud played the piano throughout his set, and his take on The Frey's "You Found Me" was as good as the original. Giraud is proof that the judges' "save" this season was put to good use.
