Sing at my Wedding... Please

Hey Taylor,

I wanted to see if you were going to be in the New York City area around May 30, 2010 and could spare a half hour of your time.

I am getting married that day and wanted to see if you would be able to perform Do I Make You Proud when I dance with my mother for the mother/son dance. It would be awesome if you could and make my wedding day even more memorable. I'm am very serious about this…

make a Rockn'Soul album

I Love your style. You may get burned out on Grease. I loved the show in Tucson while visiting there. But hopefully you'll get yourself in the studio and a few originals okay. But man, that Sam Cooke song you performed, i will never forget! Give us some more like Otis Redding, Donny Hathaway, and yes some classic Rod Stewart would be great. Hang in there and hope to see you in a live concert someday.

Hey Taylor, King Proehl here

Hey Taylor, not sure if you would remember me from the Gray Charles days, but I used to post to that site. I went by KingProehl on that and other related message boards. Mostly I posted songs I sang that had to deal with you and your Idol win. They were all silly songs, but I had a lot fun making them for the Soul Patrol fans. I can't believe they still show up

I just picked up your new DVD and I really enjoyed it. I wish I could have gotten a chance to see you perform live last time you… Continue

New Jersey Show?

Hi Taylor....any shows planned for the NJ or NY area this year? I'm a fan and my 82 yr old Mom's last wish in this world is to see you in person, but it's difficult for her to travel very far. (She's an avid reader and she was thrilled when I gave her your book for Christmas.) With a grin on her face, she tells us "I have one last hormone left and it's for Taylor Hicks!" :) You do bring her a lot of joy :)
