..."Last Friday night JD appeared in the bar of a LA restaurant where he's quickly becoming a familiar face. I think he came by himself, but after a little while people started recognizing him and he had plenty of company... of the female kind. After a while, Tim Farris and Garry Beers showed up and joined his little party. There was a female performer singing in the lounge that night and right before her last set, she announced that they would have a special guest. Sure enough, JD took the mic and sang... a song I didn't recognize. But in any case, he TORE. IT. UP. People were coming out of the main dining rooms to see what was going on, people who had no idea who he was were commenting on how amazing he was.
Afterwards he was really nice and took a moment with anyone who approached him. The boy is hot! I had friends who had seen him perform during the tapings of the show and they all said how charismatic a performer he was. I am so so happy that I had the chance to see him perform in such an intimate setting, even if it was for only one song. He is one of the most gracious celebrities I've ever met...."
