Noel Gallagher may have recently dismissed the band as "those fuckwits from Maroon 5", but even he would have to admit Adam Levine was seriously impressive in a recent fan encounter. Watch the video below.
We know that some of you out there might like to hate on Adam Levine from time to time, but you've got to hand it to him - this is pretty adorably sweet. The Maroon 5 frontman met one of his biggest fans, a 10-year-old boy with Down Syndrome, at his Washington, D.C. show on Monday night, and Levine's reaction to meeting him was priceless.
Christopher Warner is a child from Maryland who loves Maroon 5 and, up until this week, had never before seen the band play live. So his teachers helped him to make a video about how much he loves the band, which was then shipped off to Fox 5 and local radio station Hot 99.5. You can watch the video below.

When the radio station's Kane Show watched the video, they made arrangements so that Warner, his family and his teachers could go backstage to meet Levine and co. at their Washington, D.C. show at the Verizon Center.
The 10-year-old got so excited when he met his hero that he experienced a panic attack and took to the floor, with the rest of the band joining him. "Christopher was so overwhelmed he had a panic attack so @adamlevine @maroon5 @internjohnradio laid down to take a pic", Tweeted the radio show's host, Kane.
