Jensen Ackles - A Few Good Men - one year later

[agt_spooky]

Wow, was my weekend crap. I was unable to get more than a couple hours sleep on Friday, Saturday OR Sunday nights, leaving me like a zombie during the day. I don't know what's causing my insomnia, but it needs to stop!! And how come whenever I'm not feeling well and not on the computer for the weekend, there's an SPN con going on and I miss everything. [sigh] Looks like I'll have to head on over to Supernatural Wiki to get caught up. But yes, I do know the news about Jared and Sandy and it's not something I'm going to discuss here. I feel badly for both of them. I do think it is SO sweet that Jensen's family was at the con to see Jared, though. Awww!

Speaking of Jensen, it was one year ago today that myself and charityflint were in Fort Worth to see Jensen in A Few Good Men.



It's hard to believe that I was sitting there in the theater with Jensen just a few feet away from me. He was simply AMAZING as Lt. Kaffee and simply breathtaking in person. :-)

Here was the short (and very dark!) video I took at the backstage door after getting to meet him and get an autograph:

That spontaneous trip down to Texas is something I'll never forget. It was a fantastic experience and I truly hope Jensen does more theater in the future, because I know I'll be first in line to buy tickets!

Hi there!

I saw the play four times in three days.

That's freakin' awesome! You were definitely not nuts. :-) I only got to see it twice while I was down there and I wish I could've gone at least once more.

In my humble opinion, each and every performance that he gave was different from the one before and better in so many ways.

I totally agree! Even though I only saw it twice, the second performance (Saturday night) was my favorite.

I'm like you, I SO hope that he does more stuff on stage

And he was so well received that he shouldn't shy away from more theater in the future. I, for one, would rather see him on the stage instead of a horror movie!

He was also VERY sweet in person

Oh gosh, yes. When he came out on Saturday night we were told he only had like, 10 minutes, but even though it was getting past 11pm, he stayed until every single person had an autograph. What a sweetheart!

He was staying at our hotel and a few of my friends met him before Friday night's performance

Oh wow, I'm so jealous!!

Thanks so much for sharing this with all of us. I really do appreciate it.

You're very welcome! It's always nice to take a trip down memory lane with Jensen. :-)

I know that I'm really slow in replying to this. But, I just wanted to say that I completely agree with you about his performance on Saturday night in the play. He totally nailed it and I have told anyone who would listen that was his best performance that I saw. Glad that I'm not the only one who thought so.

No, it wasn't just you! He was nearly flawless and I felt that he was so smooth and relaxed during the entire performance. Man, I really want him to do theater again! LOL!

I'm with you. I'd travel nearly ANYWHERE to catch him on stage again. He was absolutely mesmerizing!
