The first thing I thought when I found out I was going to be Road Reporter was, “Dang! I can’t wear my ruby slippers now!” (Yes, I have a pair!) I had joked that I was going to wear them to the show because there is no place like Grobania and Grobania feels like home. The atmosphere at the Hershey Show really proved this true. It wasn’t so much a concert as it was a reunion of many old and new friends all united by a love and appreciation for Josh.

After the doors opened, we had our meet and greet with Josh (squee!), and everyone had sufficient time to mingle, it was time for the show! ELEW came out and rocked every part of his piano. He played everything from Sweet Home Alabama to The Simpson’s theme song to Teenage Dream. He fit so many songs into so little time by creating some really awesome mash-ups. Also, his faces were excellent! He was really entertaining.

ELEW took his leave and we had a little more chit chat time, then a bunch of us congregated around the “B” Stage. As the stage began to rise up and you could really feel the excitement building. The house lights dimmed, spot lights came on, there was screaming and then there was Josh right in front of us! He said hello, thanked everyone for coming and said we made him feel like a princess. J Then it was time for singing…

First up was one of my favorites Changing Colors, then February Song and You Are Loved. Toward the end of You Are Loved, he ran down the aisle and up to the stage. When he got up front he talked about how he wanted to make this tour intimate and have everything accessible, so accessible that there were G.A.Ps- Grobanite Access Points. Apparently Darren doesn’t like those G.A.P’s, but they made it easy for Josh to move about the arena. He took advantage of the G.A.Ps many times.

After Josh was done being funny it was back to the music which was, as always, wonderful. Some highlights were Alla Luce, War at Home and Voce Existe Em Mim. During Voce Josh pulled double duty, singing and playing drums! Also during Voce, Lauren (laurenrachel815), Kathleen (sburggrobanite08), and I got yelled at by the people behind us for dancing! Tariqh noticed though and gave us an appreciative nod and smile!

Then came question time, the best question was from Gavin, yes that Gavin- New Haven Gavin. He asked, “Why did the cookie go to the doctor?” Even in his infinite wisdom, Josh did not know the answer, so invited Gavin up to tell us. So, why did the cookie go to the doctor? “Because he was feeling crumby!” Josh read the next question, which brought him to a duet with a musical theater major, and also back to the “B” Stage. He played three more songs there before running back to the front again during Weeping, which got everyone (the Grobanites, anyway) up and dancing, except us because we didn’t want to get yelled at again, until Josh told us to feel free to stand up and stretch our legs a little and I swear I jumped right up out of my seat with a shout of triumph! (Although I'm sure the people behind us weren't happy...) We danced in the aisle for Weeping and Machine.

Before we knew it it was encore time, we had a sing-a-long to You Raise Me Up and the concert was over. It felt good to just belt it out with him. I should mention when Josh came out for the encore he had taken his jacket off and you know, Josh Groban may be awesome-sauce, but in a white t-shirt that boy is HOT sauce! J Our time in Grobania may have been short, but it was a night I will never forget and I know I will get a chance to go back again soon. What an awesome show! Until the next time, Groban!
