MY EYECANDY PHOTOS OF DAVID TOM
A DREAM COME TRUE
August 18, 2001
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
By Andrea (DavidTomFan)
Ever since I started this website, it of course has been a dream of mine to one day meet David Tom face to face, and today my dream finally came true! After weeks of antisipating this day, it finally came a reality!
I arrived at Jackson Square in Hamilton, Ontario really early, so I can mark my spot to see David. I came well prepared, brought my video camera, still camera, pictures of David in hoping I could get signed and of course a little something special for David - The Fanbook! Once I arrived at the mall, shortly after 9:30am and relized where his apperance was going to take place - inside a LEASE STORE in which was wasn't opened when I arrived, I along with a few other fans who arrived early as well, waited patiently outside.
Of course as the time went on, more and more fans arrived, and eventually there wasa huge crowd infront of the store, anxiously awaiting for the store to be open, so we can all mark our spot infront of the stage. I knew of course as soon as the doors opened, there would be a mad dash to the front of the stage, and of course I was right, so I settled for standing infront on the left hand side of the stage, and got everything all set up, ready for David's arrival!
The show started on time, and at 11:30am David was introduced as two security escorted him to the stage area, girls screaming of course! When he first walked on the stage and was in my view, I could not believe my eye. David Tom was a mear few feet away from me. All I could say was "OMG OMG OMG ..." I swear the
man is BEAUTIFUL in person. He is simply BEAUTIFUL
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!!!!! He had a whole two hours sleep since he arrived in Hamilton early that morning, but as David said .." I'm all good.." As he was drinking his morning coffee!!
The Q&A portion of the apperance started first. And
guess who was the LUCKY one who got to get their
question asked first? ME !! Lilona (Canadian agent)
came up to me first, since I of course had a question. So right then and there I knew that I picked the PERFECT SPOT to stand *grins*
Let me tell you , I was nervous, and when David's eyes
were on me, I was like thinking OMG! I had the mic, and
actually spoke rather clearly in the mic, with my
question. My question was about "future projects" How there was
a possible "movie" or a possible "play" in the works.
I just wanted to know what was the scoop with that. When David answer's he looks directly at you when he
is speaking to you - so all my eyes were on David the
whole time - we made EYE CONTACT - *hehe*

DAVID TOM COMES TO MY HOMETOWN
August 18, 2001
Written By Magda
On August 18, 2001 I, along with a lot of other
girls got to ask Young and the Restless' Billy Abbott,
David Tom questions as well take pictures with him and
get autographs. This time the fan encounter was
happening in my home town and I didn't need to travel
to see him. My friend and I got there nice and early
so we could be at the front of the stage. We read
the ad that it would be beside Canada Trust Bank, but
there were two Canada Trust Banks. So we saw other
girls waiting in front of one of them and so we joined
the line. We knew that Andrea (David Tom Online's
creator) would be there with the fan book. So we were
looking around and as stupid as we were she was right
in front of us (literally) and we didn't know it was
her right up until the last few minutes when we saw
the fan book.
Then the doors were opened and everyone ran in to be
at the front of the stage. My friend and I jetted it
as fast as we could. We were close because like
everyone else we pushed our way to the front. Then we
saw DT's agent come up on stage and we knew that he
was coming soon. As soon as DT’s agent was done doing
sound check on the microphones he came out and
everyone started to scream and snap pictures. It was
soo crowded. People were pushing really badly, but I
wasn’t about to give up my good spot.
People, asked
many questions regarding the storyline but of course
all he said is what we know already. I myself asked
him a question, my question to the hot soap star was
“What is your favourite Disney character?” and his
answer was "Goofy" It is soo exciting when he looks
at you, it makes you feel almost unworthy to be looked
at.
Anyways, after all the questions were asked I got
my autograph and waited to see his expression when
Andrea gave him the fan book, he looked so amazed that
someone would do something like that for him. He was
so happy. I snapped a few pictures and got in line for
the polaroids. Time flew by soo quickly and before I
knew he was gone, but I was very ancxious to see him
the very next day at Ontario Place. Overall this
appearance was more special then the other ones
because he actually came to my home town this time.
