My friend from SOS, Twitterpated, has a son Jon who is incredibly handsome. He is going to be in the video! Twitter gave me permission to share any details she gets here. Jon and Taylor chatted for a bit, Jon doesn't know what part of the video he's going to be in. If he can give any details about what the video is like or what's going on there, only things that are allowed to be shared by those in it, I will bring those here. It's s nice that such a sweet lady has her son in the video :) Please don't share this elsewhere without her permission. |

Oh my this is wonderful! I was really hoping that someone we know would be able to be in it or have friends or family there. COOL!

Yep it's way cool. She only gave me permission to share it here, so I guess her permission is needed to take this elsewhere. I am so excited for her! |

Jon still doesn't know what kind of video...mostly a lot of shots so far of Taylor and the band playing over and over. They broke for lunch...only five extras showed up and they all got picked. Extras were not offered lunch...lol. Will report more as the days goes on and I get more details. |

How wonderful for Twitter.............. Am hoping that the video will represent Taylor and his vision well. I have faith that Jake Davis is just the "man for the job". I am hoping that there are some "real " folk in this video. Most of us are NOT as good looking as most of the people that appear in videos. OK, I am just dreaming , everybody in a produced piece looks good. That's the way it goes. Reality be danged !!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL |

Gosh only 5 extras, I guess they didn't need a whole lot or they would have advertised a lot sooner. |

Just got home to find this! How exciting for Twitter & son. They must be overjoyed! I'm bouncing with anticipation to find out who all is in this video. |

Only 5? Gosh if I'd known enough ahead of time I might have brought my HOF outfit--off the Sears clearance rack-about as close to "cocktail" as I could get-but then black polyester knit with a muted silver and royal blue paisley velour finish doesn't look too 40ish--and how well does it hold up under blizzard conditions? Gypsee this is soooo cool that we get news from the site---thanks!! Edited by Oldiebutgoodie, Jan 12 2009, 03:46 PM.

Here is her entire synopsis so far. Again, please no reposting without her permission. From Twitterpated on SOS: <<OK, here's what I got so far...thought I'd put it here all in one place intstead of spread out among two threads. Jon called me about 9:00 Chicago time...he had just talked with Taylor. complimented him on Grease...thought it was cool Taylor won AI without going pop...Taylor talked about there being different genres of music...but my mind couldn't compute what Jon was saying along about then...so I will get a better synopsis of the conversation when Jon gets done. Of course Jon told Taylor he didn't watch AI, but his mom was a huge fan from Indy. At the time, Jon was the only extra who had showed up. Later Jon called and let me hear Taylor sing over the phone!!!!!! Sounded real good...love the song! Text from Jon: Hey, sidenote; he likes blueberry poptarts with butter on em. Next text: Who is bill? a guy came about an hour ago who is clearly close with him. Then we started emailing: I asked Jon if they had used him yet....his reply: I was supposed to be used at 11. apparently they are running late. At 12:48, Chicago time, they weren't close to done. Somewhere in there Jon called and let me hear the speeded up version of the song...Taylor sounded like Alvin. Taylor lip synced through the song twice, really fast.....they later slow down the video and it looks normal....or something like that...ask diva. message at 1:25 PM CST..... just five million shots of him singing and the band playing. breaking now for lunch, everyone is eating. me and the four other extras arent being offered anything. Oh, Taylor was wearing a suit with no tie. At 2:00 after I asked Jon if he ever got anything to eat. no food. i just look at this as training for my fast on wed. i think they are setting up for us to shoot. And that's the last I've heard as of now. I think that's about all he told me. He emailed me a picture via his cell phone, but I'm still waiting for it. I will post the rest here after Jon gets done. >> |

Bill is Bill Williams or Bill Will , Taylor good friend and now "tour manager". He accompanies Taylor everywhere. Am repairing the damage of not knowing you were being facetious in your post Gr8fulheart. I am just slow this afternoon. Please excuse !!!!! LOL Edited by mouser, Jan 12 2009, 06:06 PM.

I think Gr8 was just quoting from what Twitter's son asked about Bill. She has heard nothing since that last update, so she figures they must be involved in shooting and he had to turn his phone off. Most of this was from text messages, except when he called and let her hear the song, that lucky lady! I will keep this updated, as she gets her updates from Jon. |

Here is her latest from Jon...LOL: <<Jon was sitting at a table right in front of Taylor.....he was around him all day...said he wished it meant more to him....like he had to squeeze past him to get to the restroom.>> I am sure he meant that if it was one of us...we'd be dying. Here is more...apparently Taylor was joking around with them all between takes. Here is what else Twitter relayed... <<Jon and the others had fake drinks...little bits of cranberry juice, coke, water, etc. They were allowed to really drink them Between takes, they asked if anyone needed any more to drink....Taylor said "I do!" Jon told him...."they're not real anyway." Taylor said...:"Get these guys some of the real stuff.">> Jon went up to Taylor at the end, and said, "I hate to be a dork, but can I get a picture of us for my mom." Taylor said, "You're not being a dork... <<One of the girls...hired models I think...was talking with JOn....about American Idol.... She didn't even watch the show...didn't even know they voted. Asked Jon if he watched it...Jon told her how he didn't watch it, but he voted like 319 times for his mom because she didn't have cingular to text. Taylor cocked his head toward them, listening to the conversation and he kind of smiled.>> |

More from Twitter, who said Jon was not told he couldn't talk about this, just had to sign a waiver for being in the video. <<Oh.....Taylor asked them if they were getting sick of the song yet....because he was...Jon said they heard it a million times. Jon told him he should throw a little harmonica solo in there....Taylor said, "I wish I could, man.">> <<Jon said they were moving the shoot to a diner...would probably be there until midnight.>> |

Do wish there was harmonica . Of course, I would like everything to have a harmonica in action ;especially everything Taylor does. |

I am removing this photo, since some people don't understand generousity and respect for someone's personal life. Sad..... |

This is total coolness!! I can't believe they are going to have to work until midnight, but then I think that's an early hour for Taylor. Mouser, ITA, harp in every song! Taylor looks great in the photo, and so does Twitter's son. Edited by tishlp, Jan 12 2009, 07:17 PM.
