Robert Pattinson & other Eclipse cast members, including Kristen Stewart, Nikki Reed (with Paris Latsis) & Elizabeth Reaser attended the Bobby Long show last night in Vancouver. I debated about posting any pics from this at all because of the intrusive nature of the paps.

If you want to, you can see more pics HERE via Breaking-Dawn Fr.

There is also a short video from Annechantal you can watch HERE of the frenzy as Rob & Kristen leave the show.

Malicious Mandy blogged about the night. She says Rob & Kristen were able to enjoy the show uninterrupted:

Rob, Kristen (both in ball caps) stayed mostly in back room watching from doorway. Kristen mostly sitting and Rob leaning in the doorway.

Noone bothered them or snapped their photo or invaded their privacy. I actually walked by them a few times to go outside for air or to the bathroom and they seemed to be enjoying themselves…

Then mayhem in sued when the show was over & they tried to leave, shockingly Kristen was called a *itch by a girl in the crowd:

Door opened and out came the crew…. it happened so fast I was in a daze…

Nikki, Paris, Liz hopped into furthest cab apparently, I wasn’t really paying attention because the cab in front of me had doors open.

Rob, Kristen and her manager hopped into that closest cab.

Manager in front seat.

Rob on right side and Kristen on left. Both crouched, covering faces, ball caps on.

I was shoved and someone stepped on my toe – it was chaos.

Lot’s of flashes, I’d guess 8 paparazzi but I can’t even be sure.

Lot’s of fans though…. one paparazzi was cursing all the fans cameras and flashes LOL “you guys and all these cameras”

BAHAHHAHAH – from a paprazzi this is amusing!

One girl (who I have seen around frequently, she dates one of the autograph hounds… and gets autographs herself) shouted that Kristen was a bitch!

I was so shocked!

Read her full report HERE.

Honestly I am disgusted by this. Some people have no class. Poor Kristen!

We received an email from Muriel who has started a French fanpage dedicated to Bobby Long. Her goal is to help spread the word in Europe about what a talented artist he is. She will be posting daily updates, pics, videos all about the amazing Bobby Long. Check it out HERE.

As handler for Stuffie Edward I have been authorized to release the following report

Stuffie Edward arrived on Friday after a very long flight from NH.  Shortly after arrival we were both interviewed for Reelz Channel in the spot for Cullen Boys Anonymous.  After that we moved to registration where we got our first views of how vast this convention was going to be.  Meeting some fantastic fans in the line around us we made some quick friends that we found several times during the convention.  We attended the welcome dinner with appearances from the Hillywood Show and Evil Iguanas along with a Becka and Bailey 2 of the TwiCon partners.  After that it was time to relax in the fantastic hotel room at the Sheraton Dallas.

After waking up early we were ready to go for the first day of convention events.  We were sadly not able to get in for 100 Monkeys autographs however we did go into the vendor hall and meet several event organizers and amazing vendors along with some fans that we met the first day waiting to register.  Attending the Webmasters panel was interesting.  Stuffie Edward commented about learning a great deal from both His Golden Eyes and Twilight Series Theories, also attending was Kaleb Nation and Twilight Moms.  We were in attendance at the CullenBoysAnonymous meet up room where several of his stuffie travel companions; namely another Stuffie Edward, Bella, Alice and Emmett; were up for raffle.  We met some great CBA’s including Kismet and were very popular.  We even had other convention gowers running down from the 37th floor for Cullen-sicles which were in high demand.  After dinner it was time for the 100 Monkeys concert featuring National Rifle and Mitch Hansen.  The openers were FANTASTIC and Stuffie Edward greatly enjoyed rocking out with the other Twihards.  When 100 Monkeys took the stage the yell was almost deafening.  The rocked with a short set featuring a CBA favorite The Monkey Song.  With the Bana-ger in the crowd and everyone dancing it was a wonderful show.

Early morning again on day 3 for pictures with Jackson, Q&A and Autograph signings.  While waiting we met more fans of Jasper/Jackson and of course paused for a photo op (Stuffie Edward can be such a ham).  Stuffie Edward declined to be photographed with Jackson as he wanted to give me my shining moment and we moved on to wait for Q&A.  Press pass got us at 2nd row on the right side of the stage and though short the panel was a lot of fun.  Meeting other press from several other fan sites and local press was a great education.  We were (as press) able to attend the meet and greet where we did get some photos of the cast interacting with their fans.  One CBA member had the night that made her TwiCon experience when she was able to meet Kellan and have him sit next to her.  After that was the Volturi Ball.  Stuffie Edward was in attendance however declined to be photographed again, this time because he was not in costume.  The masks and dresses of all attending were amazing.  We saw Marcus Foster, Bobby Long and Sam Bradley perform an acoustic set and were very impressed.  Personally since I had not seen them before I think I have some new CD’s to purchase.  There was an additional meet and greet table with all three that we attended and got some pictures however since the lack of costume Stuffie Edward did not appear again.  After that returning to our room for another 3 hours of sleep till the next day.

Sunday morning was the hectic check out and good byes and then coffee with Jackson event.  After a wonderful Q&A (thank you Jackson for the time it was great) the moderators told us to look and see if there was a star on the bottom of our chairs.  Stuffie Edward was that lucky recipient though he gave up that honor to CBA’s biggest Jackson fan Jess, upon which she got her Twilight book with a personalized autograph.  After that of course it was the sad time of saying goodbye to all our new friends and old ones alike, wishing all safe travel back home.

Personally I would like to add that working with Stuffie Edward is a great experience and a wonderful ice-breaker when you have no idea what to say.  Please let me know what you think of his interactions and what else you would like to see.

Daily Motion recently did an interview with Bobby Long and here is the video for that interview.

Singer/songwriter Bobby Long, co-writer of Let Me Sign, which was sung by Robert Pattinson on the Twilight soundtrack, was interviewed by Radar Online recently:

The Brit Pack, as fans have started calling the group of guys who all are friends with Rob, includes singer/songwriter Bobby, a 22-year-old shaggy haired hunk (aren’t they all?), Sam Bradley, Marcus Foster and Tom Sturridge. “I’m friends with these guys,” Bobby says, “and I’m just happy that we’re all doing what we want to do. It’s quite rare within a friendship group I think, where you can turn around and say I’m not where I want to be at the moment, I want to release albums and all that kind of stuff and I’m sure that stuff will come for me but you know at the very least all of us are doing what we love doing, whether it’s acting or music. It’s nice; it’s just nice being able to be in this group of friends where everybody feels I guess content with what they’re doing.”

To celebrate the release of the Twilight DVD in Germany Ashley Greene, Daniel Cudmore (Felix),  Charlie Bewely (Demetri),  and Bobby Long (co-writer of Let Me Sign, TW Soundtrack) attended a Twilight Fan Party at E-Werk,  Saturday afternoon. It looks like it was a  blast which is good because the German fans have had to wait all this time for the DVD.

Just Jared Jr and OMG Celebrity News have pics of the event.

The Land of Dreamers is calling on all fans of Bobby Long to help make today “Mockingbird Wednesday” on iTunes in honor of Bobby’s newly released single (and one of my faves) Being a Mockingbird. So download your copy today! If you haven’t heard this beautiful song before you must listen to it. For more on the talented Mr. Bobby Long check out his MySpace. You can also listen to our audio interview with him from the Waldorf Astoria HERE and read our report HERE. Read our very first interview with Bobby HERE.

The Examiner’s Amanda Bell has an article featuring Bobby Long’s interview with Click Music.

..discussing his influences, his work, and by delighting us with a live version of “The Bounty of Mary Jane,” Long finishes the interview with, he claims, nothing left to say.

Though we’ve already discussed some of the things Long tells us about in the interview (for instance, see here and here), it’s still really great, so you should check it out.

Long, who played with FLIPRON last week in London, will be returning to the U.S. to resume touring this summer

WOW! I can hardly write after reading this wonderfully in depth piece on Bobby Long & Sam Bradley by Amanda Bell, The Twilight Examiner. Not only did Amanda get to attend their Nashville concert, she got to hang out with them *dies* and has written the most amazing report about Sam and Bobby:

To say that success is not a head-dweller for Bobby Long and Sam Bradley would be an exceptional understatement. The continuity of personality between the performance artists that they are on-stage and the individuals that they are after all the work is through only goes to show that they are, above all else, genuine, intelligent, and compassionate people. Bringing their lovely voices and messages to their devoted audiences, the faces that Bobby Long and Sam Bradley present to their fans are the very same ones they carry at three o’clock in the morning strategy sessions with their hard-working team.

Here is the audio part of Christine C’s and my interview with the amazing Bobby Long at the Waldorf Astoria in NYC on the 14th of April. Please forgive my New York accent, it’s usually not so bad, I was nervous!

With his performance at the Lakeside Lounge on April 13th, Bobby Long officially launched his first US tour. Self-described as “shy” by nature, Long has found himself amidst an eager audience of Twilight devotees. However, having had the chance to meet this humble 22 year old, one can see that he has a wealth of talent which allows him to step out of the long shadow of friend Robert Pattinson and into his own well-deserved limelight.

Hailing from a musical family from England’s west country, Long relocated to London three years ago. A university student studying music and film, Long agreed to start his tour – after much persuading from manager Phil Taylor – during his Easter break from school. When asked about resuming his studies, it was clear that the success of the tour will determine his future path.

Meeting Long in person, one is struck by his physicality: impossibly tall, he habitually pushes his unruly brown hair from his hazel eyes, combing the locks with his fingers, only to repeat the action moments later. His hair provides a curtain, shielding him from the hungry eyes set upon him. “This does not come naturally for me,” he admits. When asked if being introspective on demand is outside his comfort zone, he says no. “I’m a very self-reflective person, so now I have an outlet to share my thoughts with others.”

Long’s affiliation with manager Phil Taylor began at an open mic night at Taylor’s nightclub in London. “Bobby blew me away with his voice,” said Taylor. It took some time, however, to get to this point. “In January I sat down with Bob and said ‘let’s get this going’.” Soon after, a US tour was organized. “I’ve got a huge map of places we want to visit,” exuded Taylor with a conspiratorial twinkle in his eye. Long has particular interest in certain locations for sentimental reasons: Birmingham, for its association with Martin Luther King, and Mobile, because it was mentioned in a Bob Dylan song. Taylor, however, shares a more practical tour consideration. “There’s a venue in Colorado Springs that offers the performer free homemade tagliatelle,” stated Taylor. “How can you beat that?”

Long’s whirlwind ride is just beginning. There are hopes for tour dates in Japan in January with Australia to follow. “I’m so thankful for everything,” the soft-spoken Long told us. “I still can’t believe this is happening to me. Everyone has been so wonderful and supportive and I’m so grateful.”.

So are we, Bobby Long, so are we.

Bobby Long Is Awesome!

The title pretty much sums up the last two days for me. I have to say I was completely blown away by Mr. Long. What a personality and wow…his music is totally awesome! Today Christine C. and I went to the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan for a press junket with Bobby. While we patiently waited in an adjacent suite to where Bobby was being interviewed by publications and websites, we were entertained and informed by his manager Phil Taylor. I don’t think Bobby could have better representation than Phil Taylor and Alyce Hartman, his publicist, and it really is easy to tell why. Bobby Long is a talent like we haven’t seen in a long time, and they believe in him as everyone who has gone to his shows. I have to admit I was a bit nervous about an interview with him and when I mentioned that to Bobby, he told me not to be or I’d make him nervous as well.

Bobby was so happy to talk about his American debut show at the Lakeside Lounge. He was happy with the turnout and trust me…we were all so happy to hear him play.
The past two nights have been all about the music and Bobby Long knows his music and he is passionate about it. My favorite song so far has to be “Dead and Done” and I am sure everyone has their own favorite.Tonight’s show at Arlene’s Grocery was superior to last night’s at the Lakeside Lounge only because the sound quality was far superior. We are anxiously awaiting a CD from the talented Mr. Bobby Long.

I would like to thank Phil Taylor and Alyce Hartman for so graciously inviting Christine C. and I to this special event. We are so appreciative to have such insight into Bobby’s career. I also met a few great people I would like to shout out to like Cyndi Lewis and Julie Wilson from In the Land of Dreamers- official fansite.
