Town/City: Reading Birthdate: February 4, 1984 How Long Have You Been A Fan: Since about June of 1998 when everyone on my floor at tennis camp was dancing to IWY. I got really into it in February of 2000 when my friend gave me "Affirmation" for my birthday. The songs touched me and helped me deal with things that were going on in my life at that time. Have You Seen Him In Concert: Yup -- August 9, 2000 at Bethlehem Musikfest. And I plan on many more concerts in the future, particularly those with the team when we are FRONT ROW AND BACKSTAGE WITH DARREN HAYES!!!!!!! Have You Been Fortunate Enough To Meet Darren: We have become very close in my dreams, but we have not yet met in person. I dream very vividly, though. :-) Special Hobbies/Interests: Darrenizing, tennis, yoga, traveling, e-mailing, reading, writing, relaxing. Do You Have A Website: I don't have a personal Web site, but I manage the site for the teen newspaper with which I intern. Please visit it at http://voices.readingeagle.com and feel free to post on the Bulletin Boards! Anything You'd Like To Add: I used to think that people who felt so affected by music were crazy. But "knowing" Darren has changed my life. I love his music, I love what he is about, I love how he makes me think and want to be a good person who makes something of her life, and I love the friends I have made thanks to him. This *Hayesride* is a wild one, and I love it. I wouldn't give any of it up for anything. :-) Favorite Darren Picture:
