Croton Point Park, N.Y. - July 14th 2002

Just wanted to share a pic of Michael and I when he performed at the Croton Point Park, in Croton, New York on Sunday, July 14th.
Michael was fantastic on stage despite the fact that he said he caught the "red eye" out of L.A. and went right to the stage (no sleep in over 24 hours). He was just outstanding and has a great presence on stage that few stars really have.
Afterwards, despite the fact that he was totally exhausted, he sat and signed over 100 autographs and took pix's with everyone. He's a man who appreciates and cares about his fans and in return receives respect and adulation from those who get to enjoy his talent and his sweetness in meeting him.

We got to meet afterwards and I must say he is one of the sweetest guys I have ever met. I really enjoyed seeing Michael in person especially after watching him for all those years on the Y&R. He's a true talent and I hope his new release hit's #1!
Thanks to Michael for the wonderful man he is and for giving so much of himself to all of us.
A "Star" in the true sense of the word!

Michael..

Your performance was exceptional..I thoroughly enjoyed your singing just as I had many years ago when you were hanging on my wall from the tiger beat pictures....oops..my age is showing... What impressed more than anything is the way you talked to every person on that autograph line..making each of them feel special...you made it seem as if you enjoyed being there and not like it was "part of your job".. I was not on that line so I had the pleasure of just watching you and your interaction....and that sir...made you the most special person there....
Thank you....for being You....
ps..it wasnt that I didnt want the autograph...they cut the line off...
