Goodmorning Gokey girls: he sounds nice!!
This is Danny singing Maria Maria in Tampa 7/28: The whole song
Good Morning Gokey Girls,
Just watched the videos from Tampa…Don’t know why Danny said
it was he worst preformance…Thought he looked great and
sounded good to me…Maybe it was the sunburn talking..Glad
he has another day off..Give him time to rest his voice
and for the sunburn to ease some more..Love that DJG..
Yay!! our sweet Danny gets to rest this morning!! I haven’t heard of any bad reviews from Tampa for Danny!!
Karen maybe his energy level was low from the sunburn and he felt like he didn’t do his best.
Well I am going to go and review some of the other videos, will be back!!!

Hey Ms. Latrece,
Wonder where you were this AM…
So glad Danny has another day off, gives him chance to rest
his voice even more…
Haven’t seen any bad reviews from Tampa about Danny…Only
from Danny himself…Think he’s to hard on him self..
Cheryl,
If you’re here..Helio posted some nice pictures of Danny last
night after you went to bed…You better go take a look…
Will put a smile on your face..
OOOOh!!! those pictures of Danny’s abds in the plaid shirt was deliciousssss!!! MY MY! I just obtained X-ray vision!!
Karen—looking at all those pictures that Helio posted of danny is FINGER LICKIN GOOD!!

Good Morning Ladies:
Anybody hear how Danny did last night in Ft. Launderdale (Sunrise, FL)? I was wondering about his voice?
Michelle,
Haven’t heard anything yet…Hopefully with the day off
he’ll have much needed rest..And will be in super top form
for the 31st. show…
Twitter was really quiet after the show. I think I read some fans were waiting out in the rain after the concert. I doubt they would sign autographs in the rain!
Latrece,
Helio said she had alot of pictures…maybe some more that
we haven’t seen..
Are you off today??
Still worried about Deb. I DM’d her and sent her a tweet, but nothing.
Karen I am going to work today in the next couple of hours so I am going to be gettin ready to leave in a few!!
Michelle — I asked Ceryl about deb about a week ago because I Had not heard from her lately, she told me that she was on twitter. I know now no one has heard from on this or twitter lately!!
Michelle,
Sent her one too…Seems like one time she said she was
going to be in Fla with her sister during the FLA. tour..
maybe she is there…Do you remember that?
Michelle — do you know if they were Danny or Adam fans waiting yesterday in the rain??? I had not heard of any reviews from last night!!
I heard that Danny did a pre-concert meet and Greet yesterday in sunrise florida, do you know anything about that??
Do you think Deb is on vacation or out town visiting?? Usually the gokey girls would let someone know if they are not going to be on this site for a while!!
Woah, I’m not use to being the first one to comment on the Good Morning blog. I’m east coast time so I guess it is still a little early for most of the Gokey Girls. I’m actually glad there is a break from the concert today. Danny can rest his voice and I can get ready for my visit to the midwest on Saturday. Don’t expect too much happening today in Idol-land but you never know. Have a great day!!!
Latrece
You have a good day today…Don’t work to hard…
Okay, you must all think I’m nuts with my last post. Not sure why I thought I was the first comment – should have known better with this group lol. I also think it may have been the affects of Danny’s sunburn for his Tampa performance. The sun can really zap your energy. Guess he won’t do that again although in his interview he said he had the BEST time at the beach so I guess it was worth it to him. I hope someone else besides Howard Cohen writes a review for the show last night because he was a Danny hater from the get go.
Lizzy,
That’s OK…
Don’t know much about Howard Cohen if that’s the case…
then we need alot of positive reviews…
hello gokey girls.
i love reading the article danny set being the most tender moment. im so happy for danny for getting great reviews. he really deserves them.
Just checking in. Of course, He was LOVED in Tampa. Stephanie and me were there. I gotta leave for the day, but hopefully tonight/tomorrow I’ll post about the Tampa show.
You girls have a great day and be lifting Danny up.
Let’s ride this wave.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Good Morning! You know I love those pictures that Helio posted last night! We obviously are on the same wavelength when it comes to Danny, because as you know the “Heart On” pic and the “Full Frontal Tunmmy and Chain” pic were on my gravatar for a while turning all the ladies on everytime I posted!
Hope Danny is doing well today and enjoys his day off in Atlants. Hotlanta is a fun city, but hopefully Danny will be taking care of his voice and sunburn.
Michelle I sent Deb a DM and have not heard back from her. You triggered a memory – I do remember that she did say something about being in FL while Danny was on tour there, so hopefully she is there enjoying the sun and not getting burned like Danny did!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Has anybody seen any videos or read any reviews from last night’s show? Last night was the first night I didn’t hear Danny’s performance. I was a little sad knowing that he was singing and I wasn’t hearing him – even if it is on Rickey’s lousy sounding cellcasts. I hope he will have a cellcast in Atlanta tomorrow, although Friday night is date night and I can’t blow my husband off on date night to stay home and listen to Danny! I’ll have to convince ron to make it a short date!
Cheryl,
Was hoping you saw those pictures…Still haven’t heard
anything about last night’s show…You can always tell
Ron you have a headache…that seems to work for me…

From the nasty Howard Cohen at Miami Herald:
• Danny Gokey worked his widower angle once again with schmaltzy reads of Rascal Flatts tunes. The good news is he sang them well enough, moved with more agility than he displayed on TV and everyone knew his set was soon to give way to Adam’s.
Ok, that wasn’t sooo bad from a hater was it??? Sorry if I offended anyone by posting but just had to let u know it wasn’t that bad. He was meaner to Lil and Anoop. Of course Adam was the greatest, blah, blah.
Saw a couple tweets from fans saying he was great last night.
pjgvet, if thats the worst that this howard guy say, then danny must have been great. howard just cant accept the fact that danny is so great. well he did admit that danny sang well but cannot really praise him that much because howard has this hater issue. well i think howard is just bitter that danny is doing so fine
Twitter: Upsnodowns
PJGVet I think Howard Cohen’s review proves that when Danny is in Milwaukee and gets huge applause and screaming after his set, the haters like Cohen are going to say it was for Adam not Danny. Even though they know Milwaukee adores Danny they will say that the applause was for Adam. I think it was extremely unfair of Cohen to say the reason there was applause after Danny’s set was a because of Adam.
Happy Danny Day all! Still gawking at those photos Helio posted. Not only does she have an arsenal of Danny photos, she is also mega talented writer.
Thanks pjgvet
That wasn’t so bad…At least he thought he sang well enough
and glad tweets thought he was great…
Does he kinda like Adam a little bit?? LOL
Gokey Girls,
Let’s all remember our campaign to get AmyB. backstage passes
to Danny’s concert in Charlotte Aug. 1st…
Hello ladies
pjgvet, thanks for posting Hoyward’s review. It just proves that even the haters can’t say anything bad about Danny’s performance, they can’t deny his wonderful voice and ability to capture the audience… Howard downplays his review with Danny because he probably doesn’t want to admit to himself (and to the rest of his readers) that he had been wrong about Danny.
Keep on shinning Danny
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Trish I agree I think Danny is just fine. The Howard Cohen’s of the world just can’t accept that they were wrong the entire season and so they continue to bash Danny to try to justify all their early criticism. Whatever person is reviewing Danny, I always look back at their AI Season 8 reviews because 9 out of 10 times they will stick with whatever they wrote about a particular idol during the competition. Human nature dictates that once a person commits to a belief or an idea they rarely change their opinion, because they have difficulty accepting that they are wrong. That is why I won’t read some of that stuff. Danny could win 10 Grammy’s and Howard Cohen would say the Grammy voters were wrong!
Cheryl,
It’s tragic that people continue to bash Danny when they
Know how talented he is. and are afraid to admit they made
a mistake..What’s wrong with these people??
G’morning, ladies! Just checking in here quickly before I have to leave again. Remember to tweet Danny about backstage passes for our Amy for Saturday night!
Glad Danny has the day/night off to rest and relax and get some sun, hopefully with suntan lotion this time. And that would be a good idea for anybody getting a goodie bag together for him…..suntan lotion!
Before I leave, just wanted to say that was pretty much an underhanded begrudging “compliment” Howard Cohen gave Danny on doing well last night. But where does he and a few other reviewers/critics get off on saying Danny works the widower issue?! They are not listening! Danny’s brief inspirational message is ONLY to have hope, keep faith, and realize your dreams!
Gah, it makes me so nervous to see tweets to Danny with my name in them! I almost feel bad for asking. I will love it though if I get some! Thank you again to all!
Twitter: karenmary17
Good Morning Gals! I have a new gravatar I had to show you all. CHECK OUT HIS DAMN TRICEP! HMMMMMMM! I hope the pic it up and ready when I post this. Holy Lord that boy has been working out!
kay17, love your gravatar. wow!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Kay17 MmmmmmmmmmmmHmmmm! Those guns have been loaded and reloaded! They get better by the minute!
Twitter: karenmary17
I stole it from someone’s FB photo album…. If you haven’t become Danny’s ‘friend’ on FB yet. Do it! Anyone that posts pic of him and tags him… those albums come to you! So many amazing shots of all the idols come to you that way!
Kay17
How are you doing??
What can I say about that gravatar!! That is one fine picture
Danny’s got it going with the “guns” Would sure love to know
how they feel….
Kay17
How do you go about doing that?? I want to be Danny’s friend…
Twitter: karenmary17
Karen, do you have a FB account? If you do, just search for Danny. He has 2 accounts. This pic is from Daniel J. Gokey (there is also a Daniel Jay Gokey). Just ask him to be your friend. He will accept. There ya go!
I’m doing better every day. I got up at 6:30 am & walked the dog, took Sara to cello, grocery shopped, got spare ribs in the slow cooker and sent all the kids to their rooms for fighting. Then layed down to rest… After about an hour on my feet my back hurts quite a bit. It’s only been 10 days. Got to be patient!
Morning Ladies! How is everyone today?
So on fb is Danny’s page the one with the pic of him and sophia?
Twitter: karenmary17
Stephanie, no. His FB account (both of them) just has him alone. The one that I get the most from is “Daniel J. Gokey”. It is him at the AI auditions with his mouth open and you can see his tongue. lol. Not my favorite.
Does anyone know if Danny has an “official” fansite? I wonder what he does with his backstage passes for every show? I know Michael and Megan were giving some away, but I haven’t heard of any from Danny.
Also, I checked out they are selling backstage passes on some of the broker sites for $3,000 + each, you have to buy 2. – Ouch!!!
Kay thanks! yah that was the other one that showed up.
Cheryl/Karen – no word from Deb. I checked her twitter page and her last tweet was Sunday, July 26th. Maybe she’s on vacation??
She mentioned possibly going to the show with her sister in FL, but then I thought she decided to go to the show in Minneapolis.
Maybe Danny contacted her to write a song for his album and she can’t say anything?
I would be surprised if she went to the show in FL and didn’t let any of know she was going. She would have wanted to try and meet Danny while she was down there.
Sarah’s Tampa Review (She’s an Adam fan):
As for the applause-o-meter – from what I could hear, I’d say top honors go to Adam, with Danny and Kris tying for 2nd. They got a lot of cheers, and they were loud, but I’d say the difference is that there were points in both of their sets where the audience just sat down and was quiet, and then cheered at the end of the song. For Adam, it was much more frenzied – from start to finish, people were up on their feet, cheering, swaying, dancing, jumping (*blush* – sorry little girl next to me that I accidentally elbowed a couple times.), in general just NOT being calm or collected or quiet. As I think I described it last night – it was pretty much pandemonium. Allison, Matt, and Anoop got a lot of cheers too, but it was another level down from Kris and Danny. But everyone was loved on by the crowd for sure, and we were a pretty vocal and active crowd all night.
Danny
It surprised me to read that Danny felt that the Tampa show was his worst show, vocally, because I thought he sounded better live than he ever sounded on the show. There was some strain, but overall, his voice sounded good. For me, “P.Y.T.” is his strongest number… everyone was up and dancing and singing along. Like Matt, that kind of waned by the end of his set, mostly because he closes with the two ballads. But people still seemed to love him and cheered louder for him than any of the previous performers, so he’s doing something right, I guess. Just not my cup o’ tea. And I did not catch any hip thrusting. Thank God. Comment from my friend at the end of his set: “So, really, I’m cheering because this is over and ADAM is next!”
Twitter: karenmary17
Michelle, I haven’t heard of an ‘official fansite’ yet. I know there is no way I’ll be going backstage for $3000 a pop. I can’t believe many people could afford that, especially now. That is more than most established artists charge. That seems really high!
Twitter: pjgvet
Glad you guys weren’t upset about me posting the Cohen review; just wanted to show that even a bad hater can’t say he sucked!!! And I agree, Shirl, it was actually a compliment, considering the source. I did have to laugh, that instead of acknowledging the standing O I heard Danny got, he said it was because they were excited about Adam coming! Ha! Even at MJ’s someone said they said the standing O was for Danny.
Milwaukee people we will have to scream loud and long at the BEGINNING of Danny’s set!
Twitter: karenmary17
How many Milwaukee people are here?
Lizzy – thanks for the recaps. The Adam fans are getting “softer” with their Danny comments. Or they are realizing just how great Danny is.
I am in a joking mood today, sent out a funny tweet to Danny with a picture of his guns – check it out. LOL, I asked if this picture was @dannygokey or Mr. Twitter Universe – LOL!!
We needs some laughs from those jokesters! Everything has gotten serious all of a sudden!! No more funny bubble tweets – what’s up with that?
Beth’s Tampa review (another Adam fan) I swear I will try and find some Danny fans reviews but they just don’t seem to post them where I can find them.
Danny- He had a lot of fans there. His twitter says he felt his voice wasn’t up to par. I always have found it raspy, so I didn’t notice anything. What about those Dancing with the Stars rumors? He sure was throwing in some moves. I thought he did a good job.
kay17 – there wasn’t even ANY backstage passes for sale in Milwaukee. I am sure with all of the family and friends in Milwaukee, those will be hard to come by.
kay17 – I know of me, pjgvet and vc – all from Milwaukee.
Twitter: karenmary17
Michelle, You’d think that some of the others would have extras…. Scott, Megan, Anoop? Any of those. Unless Danny took them all
Twitter: karenmary17
vc is my sister
kay17 – yes but there seems to be some sensitivity about asking other idols for their passes to see another idol!! Gues that’s kind of a no no.
Twitter: pjgvet
Michelle, VC, Jen and me are going to Milgokey show, I think. About 6 other Gokey Gang also WhyAnnie from GokeyGang was at Tampa. As soon as she posts her review at the Cave I will cut and paste here too.
pjgvet, thanks! I knew you were going with some other gokey gang people, I just wasnt’ sure where they were all from. I think you mentioned before someone was flying in and were going to be meeting them for the first time!! How fun!! I am bringing my kids, so I hope the show stays more pg rated!!
Twitter: karenmary17
vc is going with me and my honey girl, sara. My little gift to my ladies!
Kay17
Don’t have fb account..Will get one..Thanks..
Don’t over due…take it easy…hasn’t even been two weeks
yet..
kay17 – we should get Sara and my daughter together. But I know you guys are on the other side of the arena from us.
Steph….
Glad you changed your gravatar…Love this one…That
cupcake one made me have thoughts that I shouldn’t be
having…..
Twitter: karenmary17
Michelle, how old is your girl? Sara would love that. Maybe we could try to meet b4 to see the Idols when they get here. (as long as I’m ready to be up and out that long). That would be fun.
Karen yah this is actually one of the pics that I took the other night.
so I’m uploading all of my photos to my fb account
I am from Milwaukee. Yikes my boss just walked in my office and I had this sight up. Thank god she is a Danny fan. For Danny Day she went into our controllers office and told him that we were all heading out to summerfest grounds to see Danny and if he had a problem with it to bad.
Back to work Yuck : (
Twitter: karenmary17
Stephanie, don’t forget to tag ‘Daniel J. Gokey’. Then we can see you photos! (unless you don’t want all of Danny’s “friends” to see them….)
Twitter: karenmary17
Hi Kathy, welcome! Say ‘hi’ to your boss!
pjgvet – I think there is about 20,000 other GokeyGirls going to the show!! LOL!! I am thinking it will be mostly Danny fans there, but you never know!
kay17 – her birthday is actually 4 days before the concert, she is turning 5. Maybe DJG can give her a birthday hug!! She’s to young to be on twitter – LOL!!
Kay oh i will!
My daughter was listening to the live version of “Hero” this morning and she said “Mom, Danny looks like he is trying so hard, how come he didn’t win?” I just laughed, but inside we all wanted him to win!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Kay17 You need to take it easy, although being a mother it’s difficult to do. You don’t want to take a step backwards in your recovery and you want to be at 100% for the show!
Steph I love that new gravatar and you took that picture which makes it even better. Danny’s guns are smokin hot on that pic!
Twitter: pjgvet
Michelle-
I think u;r right about 20,000 Gokey Girls, lol. Well, at least more than half that!
I am going with one friend; everyone else are people I’ve only met on the internet, lol.
Cheryl Isn’t he? wow! yah I found out how to take the videos that I too and trun them into pics! so now I just trippled what I hd of him!
Twitter: karenmary17
Cheryl, I’m not overdoing it ( I think). I’m wondering what Danny’s been doing to get those arms. The mic must be mighty heavy….
yay! all of my pics are uploaded on fb!
Steph
You took that picture?? You did a great job…Looking
forward to seeing all the pictures and videos you took.
Karen yah I took the videos that I took and went frame by frame and turned them into photos! I’m trying to upload them here, but im not sure how to do it.
To all of the Milwaukee people…are we making this an all day event or ??? Let me know so I can adjust my work schedule accordingly.
Twitter: pjgvet
Jen-
I’m not sure; I am trying to see if I can get any inside info from a DJ about when they are coming in, etc. Someone said they think they will prob. arrive Thurs. eve. I’m off all day, but I know some aren’t so don’t really know plans yet- I would imagine some of us will be hanging outside during the day to hope for a meet.
Steph
Wonder what Danny is doing in Atlanta? Touring the city
with the rest of the idols? Eating at all the good rest…
rehearsing?? Would really love to know….Hope he does
rest his voice..
Karen,
I sent you a tweet this morning and you didn’t reply so I resent it then sent another one. I just saw that you sent me one wondering why I haven’t gotten back, so you haven’t seen any of my tweets. So I just sent you a DM. What is going on with Twitter?
Anyway, Hey Gokey Girls, I’ve been trying to catch up, it isn’t easy. You guys have a lot to say, ha.
pjgvet…I’ll plan on taking the day off
Karen I hope he gets some rest too! I was glad to hear that he loved relaxing in Tampa though.
so for anyone who is going to the other conerts and plans on waiting out by the buses…I would bring not only water, umbrella, chair, and sunscreen; I would also bring one of those fan water spritzer thingys…trust me you will want and need it!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph Is it true that if someone wants to go to the buses after the show to meet the idols, they have to leave the show early, like during Kris’s performance?
well it all depends on where you are and where they go. For me, it would have been good for me to have left early. depending on how badly you want to watch the last few numbers, you may want to leave early. I don’t know why they had them go out front for the meet n greet in Tampa, but if you want a good spot it may be a good idea.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Danny wiht Kris’s mom
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l112/taylortriumphs/210hpq9.jpg
I’m really starting to think that I should have brought another camera. Looking at the other pics that some people took mine are kinda blurry and grainy. lol! but you can still see him
MJ had a Q&A session with Brian Mansfield, USA Today and Richard Rushfield. I only read it today and there were some interesting tidbits about Danny’s possible record deal from Mr. Mansfield.
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/idolchatter/post/2009/07/idol-chatter-meets-idol-tracker-the-chat/1?csp=34
[Comment From beth5343]
Of the Season 8 contestants that aren’t signed yet, who do you think has the best shot at a successful career
12:30 RichardRushfield: Brian you are the industry expert-
12:31 Brian Mansfield: Well, Danny, obviously, but only if he can figure out what he wants to do and it happens to be the same thing that his audience wants to hear from him. That’s far from a given.
12:31 [Comment From Stacy]
What do you want to see more of on Idol: Contestants like Danny, (with a natural ability but no formal training/ experience) Kris, (who may not be as powerful of singers but are talented musicians/ artists) or Adam, (Someone who’s been doing this for a long time, to the point of “Why hasn’t anyone signed theis guy already?)
How late is too late for a Danny Gokey record deal? We’ve been hearing about the possibilities for two months now, do you think it will happen?
1:26 Brian Mansfield: I don’t think there’s a danger to the market. Maybe a danger to the Idols. I wouldn’t be surprised if it went off the air at the end of the new round of contracts. It might be awfully hard to keep giving people raises. You know it’s not going to get bigger ratings than it has now. But I hope it’s around longer.
1:27 RichardRushfield: There is always a deal out there to be had- its just a question of what kinda of deal and how big
1:27 Brian Mansfield: He’s talking to the people in town he needs to talk to. If they don’t announce before Aug. 19 (is that right?), it won’t be a big deal. But once it’s done, he needs to get his butt moving.
1:28 Brian Mansfield: But he’ll probably be coming to Nashville, and they know how to get stuff done quickly here.
1:28 [Comment From mmb]
why do you think 19 did not sign Danny…after all the praise and hype by the judges, it is surprising
1:28 RichardRushfield: I’ll leave that to brian but i think danny is obvious than allison what the niche is
1:28 Brian Mansfield: It might actually be pretty complicated, and I don’t know that they’re done with him. I could see some kind of partnership with a company that has better ties to the market where his audience is.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph if your pictures look anything like your gravatar then they are very clear. Can’t wait to see them all.
Thanks for the info on leaving early. My friend is not going to want to miss Kris and I don’t want to miss Danny singing DSB with the group. So, I don’t know what my chances are of meeting Danny.
Cheryl well like I said, depending on where you are,if you hurry after the show then you may have a chance. most of the people who left early in Tampa were Adam fans, they left right after his set (and he never showed! lol!) but I would still try, you never know.
Hi GGs! Thanks for those great pics from yesterday, Helio and Kay17, your new gravi rox, sistah!
I am free all day on 8/28 and am going to try to figure out a way to meet Danny!!! I’d love to meet up with other GGs on that day! Jen, Michelle, Kathy, Pam, Karen (aka Kay17)…who else?? We’ll be a force to be reckoned with!!
Hey, Michelle, Ivan did return my email right away and said it should be another 3 weeks or so until the two SHF sites are merged and he hoped and prayed that all of the glitches concerning donations, credit cards, etc. will be worked out. It was such a nice email and he was happy that I remembered he had played bass guitar on Danny Day at Summerfest. He has a really great website and you can listen to his music. SMOKIN!!!
Stephanie, you asked about Danny’s Facebook account. His real account is Daniel J. Gokey. It is the one with the pic of him and Sophia. The other account is from a fan. Amy verified this for me months ago because I wanted to be sure I’d be on the right account to ask Danny to friend me. I had to wait about a month but he finally added me as a friend.
Sorry, in case anyone didn’t know the person I was referencing in my earlier post, Ivan Santiago is Danny’s bro-in-law. He is also the VP of SHF.
I was referring to his myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/ivansantiagomusic
Check it out! Couldn’t you just see Danny teaming up with him and Carlos Santana???!!! Aiiii Dios Mio!!
thanks Shirl!
someone plz try this link, it’s one of my pics from my fb.
http://www.facebook.com/s.php?q=Daniel+J.+Gokey&k=100000020&init=ffs#/photo.php?pid=30573777&id=1060794552
How do ya’ll ask Danny to be your freind on FB?
next to the account it will say request as friend or something like that.
Lizzy, thanks for the Mansfield-Rushfield article!
Stephanie, love your gravatar….can’t wait to see your other pics!
never mind abou the link
Steph
I pulled that link up..but I couldn’t see the picture
will try again..
ok im gonna try something else
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/album.php?aid=2028723&id=1060794552
Karen, make sure you’re on the FB page Daniel J. Gokey with the pic of him and Sophia. There’s a place on the site where you can send a request to him, asking him to add you as a friend. Might take awhile for him to respond but he will, eventually.
Lizzy
Thanks for the interview about Danny..
All I want to know is when Danny will be signed???
forgive all of my weird posts, I’m trying to reconfigure my ablum so that everyone can view it.
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/album.php?aid=2028723&id=1060794552
Thanks Shirl…Try to get on that one…
BAH! this aint workin!
Shirl
Went to Facebook Did not see a picture of Sophia and Danny.
Saw all pictures of Danny by himself..Did I do something
wrong??
Ok so I guess if yall have fb you can click on the link then view the album. Until i can find another way of getting them on here (im not that technically inclined LOL!) this is how you can view them.
I meant click the link, sign in, then view the album.
Steph
Did see all your pictures…Loved you in purple…All the
pictures were great…Thought you did a real good job…
Danny is so hot…… ;0 ;0
Karen thanks! glad it worked!
VickieCarol
Glad to see you back..

Wish I Could get rid of the graininess of some of the pics though. kinda bugs me lol!
Steph
From your picture…Danny will be sorry he missed you..
Stephanie, that last link worked just fine! You got some really good pics….dramatic! Nice! Thanks for sharing!
Karen, scroll back up to the top of the page, then on the left under BLOGROLL, click on DANNY’S FACEBOOK. That will take you to the correct page.
Karen LOL! thanks! maybe someone should show him! lol! just kiddin!
I loved the 2 pics where he took his glasses off! I went back and looked at them and was like…man! he DOES look like RDJ!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I can’t get on facebook at work. I don’t have a facebook page. Is it hard to set up? Can I set it up without putting all kinds of personal stuff on the page, Like pictures and stories and backgrounds and all of that? Is it possible to just sign up and then try to get on Danny’s page as a friend? I already spend way to much time on the computer without have to set up some kind of clever facebook page!

Cheryl, FB is soooo easy. And once you become Danny’s ‘friend’ any pictures on that site that have ‘tagged’ him will automatically go to your FB page. That’s how I snagged my gravatar. *naughty*
Twitter: karenmary17
Cheryl, let me rephrase that last post. Not only will you get the pictures that tag Danny, you get any pics in that album. You get to see anything they put there.

Kay17 Once I sign up do I have to design a page? Or can I just have my name on the page with no personal information?
Twitter: karenmary17
Cheryl, you can do as little or as much as you like. It’s all up to you. You can make a totally fake one if you wish. I used a fake one so I could go on the FB American Idol site and defend Danny without getting flak or having all my friends see my Idol addiction. So I have 2 sites.

Stephanie, did I steal my gravatar from you? The lady that put that pic up was a Stephanie, too! Sorry if it was yours. I just had to have that TRICEP!!!!
Kay no that wasnt me lol! I wish it were though!

I am going to sign up for Facebook tonight when I get home just so I can be Danny’s friend because I am already one of his favorites, now I can be one of his favortie friends!!!

I still gotta gripe about his hair, and it’s especially evident in that pic you posted the link to, Cheryl. It stands straight up on top! It’s like 3 inches long and stands straight up, no styling at all! Don’t think he took your hints to get it styled
Cheryl I wanna wrap my arms around danny kikethat! Lol!
Oops meant like that lol!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Stephanie I would love to wrap my arms around him and feel his muscles in his abs and his nice strong back. I bet he feels good!
Shirl The hair has gotta go. I may have to be more blunt in my tweets. I might have to ask if he has considered firing his stylist.
WHOA Stephanie!! Hot pics on your facebook account! You have a great camera and a great eye, too!! Thanks for sharing them!
The pics with you and Matt and you and KRis were really good, too. Next time there’ll be some of you and Danny!!
Those arms of his on your gravatar are making me dizzzy from wanting to squeeeeeeze them! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Shirl Or, maybe tweet him a link to a before picture and an after picture and explain to him that he’s hot in the after picture but hotter in the before picture because of the hair.
Cheryl that’s like saying I bet ice cream tastes yummy! Lol!
hugs from him are probably the best ever!

Cheryl! That’s one of my favorite pics of Danny, on your gravatar! LOVED his hair that night on the show!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Danny’s pants are nice and tight in those pics. Allison can’t keep her hands off of him. I would be touching him constantly if I were up on that stage with him.
What is up with Megan’s hair. Bride of Frankenstein! Those idols need to get together and pay for a new stylist!

Danny is yummy

Cheryl, I just tried to check out the two Dallison pics (don’t stop believing)that you just posted, but it says they were deleted or moved!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
VC Very weird. They have also been deleted from the site where I found them. Whoever the pictures belonged to must have wanted to block them.
Vc I am keeping space in that folder empty for those pics of me and danny. Lol! And I WILL get them! Lol!
Cheryl, that pic is so cute! I just love they way Danny’s eye squint like that when he smiles! Its just too adorable!!!! I can’t bear it! I’m a sucker for a nice smile. And that there is…WOAH!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph He is cute when he smiles. Funny how his eyes get all squinty, because he actually has very big eyes. Megan once said she loves how Danny squints when he smiles and that he is adorable.
Cheryl yah I don’t know why but his smile makes my heart beat faster! Haha!
WTH is up with Twitter? I haven’t been able to get on there since this afternoon, and still can’t! Anyone else having a problem???
Uh….I’m seeing a serious pic of Danny on Cheryl’s gravatar. THAT is the one that is one of my very favorite pics of him, so if it’s changed, it hasn’t shown up yet.

Hahaha! That video was so funny! It actually made me feel a bit better about not making it to the front the other night. Even if I did get a spot my encounter with him would have been like 2.5 seconds! Maybe its better this way, I mean I still wanna meet him, but maybe I will when things aren’t so crazy! Lol! Last thing said about it!

Review from the cave from a Sunrise concert attender:
Hey all! Just wanted to share my Danny experience with anyone who may be interested. The show was great! Pretty much everyone was fantastic.
The crowd faves, judging by my less than perfect applause meter, were Anoop, Matt, Allison, Danny, Kris (not necessarily in that order) but the clear winner was Adam. People would scream when anything Adam would flash on the screens (his eyes, nailpolish, spikes, whatever) even before the show started. When he came out to perform, the entire arena was on their feet. He was also great. Though I do think that what helped was the level of special effects that he got. Starlight by Muse and Mad World were almost psychedelic. Plus its hard to keep a crowd sitting during the wailing guitar riffs of Whole Lotta Love.
I’m not going to review all the idols because I think by now we all know what they are singing etc. so it would just be my opinion of their performance. I will confess that I didn’t see much of Kris’ =( cause I was busy planning my escape route to see Danny!
Anyway, now for D A N N Y!!
He was WONDERFUL ! He had on a red button up shirt, jeans, that chain on his jeans that he wears and combat boots!! YUM! The started screaming when he came out and he went right into PYT. Then Maria Maria and his dancing!!! I loved it he was sooooo good!!!! They showed his feet in the boots on the screens and he was hot hot hot! And the way he was dancing with the mikestand sooo cool and suave. Awkward and clumsy??? NOT AT ALL!! He was more like a gazelle! More screaming! Then WHTM – great of course. Then what’s been termed “preaching” by um…others. I thought it was fantastic, eloquent, not at all preachy just positive. It showed a very compassionate person and it was well received and he responded by saying that he gets that reaction (a good one) because everyone in their life has something they are dealing with and to not let anything crush your dreams. Then he dedicated My Wish to the audience. Of course I was all choked up!
His voice was suffering (it definitely was bothering him the whole set) and toward the middle of the song he was really straining. He couldn’t get some the notes at the end and was pointing toward his throat. Still amazing! How much do I love that man!
Blah blah blah- My exit!
I left during Don’t Stop Believing (at the suggestion of one of the Gang– sorry don’t remember who but thank you=D) and went outside to wait with the rest of the gathering crowd for them to come out. I was at the front of fenced off area (which is good because at 4’11’’ any further back and I would have a bird’s eye view of ppl’s spinal column.
It had to be nearly and hour and half or more and let me just say that the humidity was like 100%!!! People were sticking to me! Everything was sticking to me! I had to peel out of my jeans like a banana when I got home! Really it was kinda gross! But all for Danny!!
Before anyone came out a spontaneous chant of Danny! Danny! started. Adam fans, not to be outdone by Danny fans, countered with an even louder chanting of Adam Adam! That happened a few times.
Scott came out, then Kris (he is so petite! And I can say that at my height!), then Matt. Danny was last – no one else came out.
When Danny came out, I believe he received the biggest reaction. More than Kris. He started out all the way on the other side from where I was. The girls next to me were also Danny fans so at the count of 3 we all screamed WE LOVE YOU DANNY really loudly. He was signing autographs and turned to look at us. I was dying! All I could manage to do was wave frantically! Making his way over closer closer. OMG he’s right next to me I had to attempt saying something. So he is signing my Danny picture and I said “I LOVE YOU DANNY! CAN I HAVE A HUG OR I WONT BE ABLE TO SLEEP TONIGHT!” He looked at me dead in the eyes and I locked eyes with him for a few seconds (how I had the strength to hold myself up IDK!! I was shaking like a leaf) LOCKED EYES!!! Even my sister said after “he looked right in your eyes!!” ahhhhhhhhhh!!! Then he (said “awww” I think) opened his arms to give me a hug. I grabbed him and latched on (HEHE) and nuzzled my face by his neck under his chin!!!! It was the BEST HUG EVER!!!! Then he had to continue on his way =(((
I wish I had more time. He was really being rushed it was after midnight.
I LOVE DANNY!!
[image] Danny!
PS I forgot to mention, maybe i felt it was implied, he is GORGEOUS!!!!! and the booty!!!! i had a lot time to look at it as i was waiting for him to get to me [image] — let me just say you could write sonnets about it!!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
PJGvet Thanks so much for sharing that review. I loved it! Just reading it made me feel as if I was right there next to her about to get my hug from Danny!
He sure knows how to drive em crazy. And he doesn’t even try! Now if that’s not starpower then I don’t know what is!
Pam, thanks so much for sharing that story with us. Always so much fun to read someone’s comments about the concert and getting to meet Danny. It never gets old! I can only imagine how good he would feel close up in a nice full body hug!
Shirl probably like the biggest security blanket in the world! You are full protected! ;-D
Hey PJG, You saved me the trouble of posting the review lol.
The review is great but I am a little worried about Danny’s voice. I’m sure he is getting the required care for it but I still worry. Danny always gives 110% for his fans. He hasn’t tweeted today has he? He ususally tweets every day and especially on his day off.
Lizzy I haven’t seen any tweets from him yet. Hopefully he’s sleeping and resting his voice.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph I finally joined facebook and saw your pictures of Danny. OMG they are wonderful! I love the two where he had his glasses off. I love hiim with glasses, but we haven’t seen any pictures of him lately without them, so it wa really nice to see them. He is so hot!! Thanks for sharing the pics!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Sorry for the bad typing!

Video of fan meeting/getting hug in Sunrise

Lizzy-
We always have the same ideas, lol!
I am hoping Danny is so quiet today because either
-He’s sleeping/resting and recovering or
-Meeting with someone about record labels on his day off!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Rachel and PJGvet Love the fan hugs. Here is another one from July 13.
pjgvet – thanks for the fan video, you can tell they were excited with all of the OMG, OMG, OMG!!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
WHTM in Sunrise
pjgvet – thank you for that recap from the fan at Sunrise! All I can say is you can just feel the excitement for Danny in every fan review, encounter, picture, etc. I feel it building each concert. Fantastic for him.
Where in the world is Danny Gokey today, well somewhere in hiding in Atlanta. Hopefully, resting, getting a massage and relaxing in his bed!!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
My Wish in Sunrise
Do you know in many upscale hotel, you can get a full body massage right in your room. Do we have any massage therapists in the group???? Would you like to volunteer anyone?? LOL!!
I am still waiting for my laughs today!
Shirl – I was having a problem with twitter earlier – so frustrating! Tweets were missing, I was going back in time, so strange! But it seems to be working for me now.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I am not having any problems with twitter! Was hoping Danny would tweet today. Hope he is resting his voice. It did sound like his voice was strained on WHTM in Sunrise.
I have a video of my wish from my concert but I don’t know how to upload it.
Twitter: pjgvet
Didn’t watch WHTM yet but My Wish sounded great; if this is what he sounds like when his voice is hoarse; I can’t wait to see him!
Twitter: pjgvet
My apologies if someone already posted this from MJ’s but I don’t remember seeing it:
Even though I didn’t like Danny that much on the show, I really, really enjoyed him. I loved “P.Y.T.,” probably because I’ve been listening to Michael Jackson non-stop- I would have to say that was my favorite song after all of Adam’s. Now I know what the judges were talking about when they simply told Danny “This is a singing competition and you can sing.” I really liked his speech too- if Adam had gone through something hard and said a speech like that, people would be eating it up, so I don’t know why some people call it preachy.”
Cheryl welcome to fb! Lol!
WOW!!! That fan recap was just amazing and I know exactly what she means. Danny LOCKED eyes with me for both of my hugs and the second time he said, “It’s you again?!” with a big smile as I swooped in for another hug. Can you tell I’m reliving my dannylovemoments AGAIN?? Are you guys sick of it yet?? I just swear to God in Heaven that Danny J Gokey is SUCH a lover, SUCH a sweetie, SUCH an AMAZING HUGGER!! No el-fako superficial, barely touch torso hugs from him! uh=uh…no siree! Full-on body hugs with those loaded guns wrapped around you…!!! Oh…gonna go get some ice water!
Vc uber jealous! Haha!
pjgvet
Thanks for the recap from the Sunrise Concert…Love when
they are such big fans…Sounds like she really enjoyed
Danny….Also thank you for the fan video,,They really
get excited..Don’t blame I would be to…
Cheryl
Hate to sound like a broken record…But we are just going
to have to do something about Danny’s hair….Think you
are going to have to get a little rough with our him..
Has anyone noticed, all of the Idols are pretty quiet today on Twitter…
Karen what if I took some styling gel in my hand and ran it through his hair, kinda make it look a little messy?
Jen actually everyone is quiet everywhere today it seems.
Ok, just read Danny’s horoscope from Shepherd Express (Milwaukee weekly paper) Taurus (of course, he’s STRONG LIKE BULL! LOL)
You’re primed to cancel a jinx in the coming days. You could help someone (maybe even yourself) escape a bewitchment and you might be able to soothe a wound that has been festering. In fact, I’m playing with the fantasy that you are now THE LIVING EMBODIMENT (my caps) of a LUCKY CHARM!! (the charm part is most certainly correct) At no other time in recent memory have you had so much power to reverse the effects of perverse karma bad habits and just plain negative vibes. (haters, beware)! Your hands and eyes are charged with good medicine. Other parts of you are, too
which means sexual healing could be in the works (well, maybe that part only applies to the people he touches cuz I can’t speak for Danny’s readiness for that, but I know when he touches, there is plenty of HEALING going on!) But as you embark on your mission to cure everyone you love, remember the first law of the SOUL doctor (good moniker for Danny): “Physician, heal thyself.”
Interesting, huh? I don’t normally look for my horoscope, much less Danny’s but I’m procrastinating on organizing my house before a friend from Norway appears on Monday! AAAAYYY! Where to start! It’s a clutterfest here!
Steph
That’s your job for sure…Can I help you?? What if we were
lucky enough to get that close to him…?? Come to think of
it that just might do the trick…Instead of sticking
straight up, kind of have it messed a little.. I’d love
to run my finders through his hair..
Regarding Milwaukee show, here is the response I received from Mayor Barrett’s office regarding making August 28, 2009 American Idol Day in Milwaukee…
Jennifer,
My name is Alexis and I work for Mayor Barrett.
I want to thank you for contacting us regarding the upcoming American Idol tour. I am going to look into the possibility of this happening and will get back to you when a decision is made.
Again, thank you for your suggestions and I will be in touch.
Best regards,
Alexis Peterson
Office of Mayor Tom Barrett
[email protected]
Cross your fingers guys, we could be the only place where the Idols have their own day when they are in town (unless someone else knows of another city that did this)
Vc that’s very interesting.
VC
Interesting! Strong like a bull, would sure like to find
out…You already know, already having the pleasure of being
hugged twice by Mr. Gokey..
VC
Forgot to ask you, when Danny hugged you…Was his “guns”
as big as they are now??
Jen, that would be SO COOL! Could you post Barrett’s email again for me? I live in Milw and just didnt’ get around to contacting his office.
Thanks so much for that great idea and moving forward on it!
Could you imagine a big parade with all of the top 10 parading around Milwaukee??? Playing beach volleyball at Bradford Beach? Beer sampling at Lakefront Brewery? Barbeque at MY HOUSE!!!
Jen,
Will be keeping fingers crossed….AI Day..Know the idols
would really appreciate it.
Jen that is awesome! I really hope they do that for them!
Karen sure you can help! Lol! I’ve always imagined doing that anyways! I bet he has soft hair! But you guys who still have a chane to get to him should totally suggest that! I’m just the dreamer and the scheamer now! Hahaha!
VC
For Barbeque at your house, you are only inviting Danny
right?
Karen, tho I know he is strong as a bull from the hugs, I’d like to know first-hand about some of his other strengths!
About his guns, I couldn’t see them, they were undercover, probably so people wouldn’t pass out on the spot when they saw them! After all, there’s nothing more titilating than BIG LOADED GUNS on public display! LOL
All I know is that he gave massively huge hugs, real hugs, hugs with CONVICTION! Hugs with FEELING. Oh, yes, sister. We were FEELING THE LOVE!! Oh, to feel it again!!
Karen, need you ask??
I am NOT good at sharing!! What kind of vittles do you think I should serve up??
Knock Knock…anybody home? So quiet tonight!
Steph
Unfortunetly I’m not able to go to the Duluth show..So I

won’t ever be able to feel how soft his hair is…Maybe
when his album comes out and he goes on tour promoting
it..He’ll come to Atlanta again or Savannah, will definetly
be there..How I would love to be able to get a hug from
him…I’d settle for a DM…You’re lucky, he called you
“SWEETIE”….
VC
Anything with a little “SPICE”… YOU!!
Where is everybody tonight???
jen, how awesome is that!! Please keep us updated!
Karen yah it made me cry! All this talk about his awesome hug has got me craving really bad not gonna lie! lol! Who knows, maybe we were meant to meet him in a more relaxed atmosphere? Bc I would GLADLY wait til all of this madness was over if I knew that were true! As you can tell I’m one of those dreamers that he keeps talking about @ the concert! Haha ;-D
Jen, nice response from the Mayor’s office, and good luck with your project!
vc, I can STILL remember way back when you first told us all about that luncheon in Milwaukee that you attended with your niece, and how you got to hug Danny TWICE! Weren’t you the little dickens that got a hug from him, then ran to the last table in the group, so you could get another hug from him as he came around to each table???
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I’m here!
Steph Would care if I use one of your pics as a gravatar at some point?
How come it is so quiet in here tonight?
Karen I will have to get rough with Danny about his hair. I will send a less subtle tweet to him.
Maybe the idols aren’t tweeting because Twitter isn’t working too well tonight. I was able to get on about an hour ago and saw people complaining about the site, and now I can’t get on again. Could be the site is overloaded again.
Awww, Karen. I’m so sorry you can’t see Danny. I’m sure he’d love having you ruffle through his hair a little…and put yourself squarely between those big guns of his for a massive hugfest! And you do deserve that, Miss #1 Poster on this site! We know you are REALLY FEELING THE LOVE!!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Jen I love the idea of Milwaukee having Idol Tour Day. It would really show the nation and the idols how wonderful the city is and how they can show the love not just to Danny but to all the idols!
Cheryl no not all!
me gravitar es su gravitar! Enjoy!

A dream is a wish your heart makes when you’re fast asleep. In dreams you will lose your heartache whatever you wish for you keep. Have faith in your dreams and someday, your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is greiving, if you keep on believeing, the dreams that you wish will come true!
Yeah, Shirl, that was me. I get quite sneaky when it comes to my dannylovin!
Steph, I SWEAR, you are gonna feel the love yourself one day soon! I know Danny is not going to forget about not being able to meet you, SWEETIE!
Hey all! I just wanted to come in and say hi! That was my Danny review from Sunrise that pjgvet posted!! I wanted to come see what I wrote LOL- I’m glad you all liked it! I still cant stop talking about it and am still giddy! I have been reading some of the comments here and just wanted to say:
THE GUNS: when he came out to meet n greet they were one of the 1st things I noticed! they were just popping out all over!
THE BOOTY: I um.. ahem… whew… need a glass of water!
THE HAIR: honestly the man is so fine…it doesnt matter- it looked good to me
THE EYELOCK: *THUD*
Plus he is sweet and funny, compassionate and kind-hearted, can sing and dance. What doesn’t he have? Sadly, me. =( — LOL
If Danny could have seen Stephanie in that purple shirt she
wore to the concert..Danny would have gotten to her some
how..Made the bus late or whatever..
Stephanie
Now you are a poet…You’re a jack of all trades..
Karen that’s what I was thinking. Bc the ladie I was standing next to said she heard michael say that he n danny had to put their stuff up first. But when they got on the bus it drove off. I don’t think they realiZed how late thay were.
http://dannygokey-star.com/ Don’t forget to check this site out now and then. It’s so well organized, with a separate category for each night of the tour, where that night’s pics and videos from the fans can be found.
Karen well actyally I cheated on that one. That’s the song from Disney’s Cinderella. But I use that as my theme song haha!
Steph
Do you still have the poster you made?? Why don’t you put
your purple shirt and hold the poster…Do a bubble tweet
to Danny…Then he would see what he missed..
Steph
You’re a sneak…I really thought you made that up!!!
Cheryl – I saw your tweet about his hair. Love the picture you sent him! Not much action on twitter from the idols today. I hope he is o.k.
vc…I would send e-mail directly to [email protected], since she is the one who responded to me. Has ANYONE found audio clips of Danny singing My Wish or Maria Maria. Can’t find them anywhere
Good night everyone!
Amy B – needs to bubble tweet Danny for BS passes. Yes maam! Also, what’s the plan for Amy, are you going to be tweeting during the show?
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph I thought the words to that song sounded familiar! You are a big Disney fan like Danny and Matt aren’t you?
Shirl
I went to that site…Love that!! Who did that??
Karen I wish the stuff that I write was that good lol! I mean I do write some, I’m at the amature level lol!
Sorry, Karen, I just can’t forget the hair. He looks like a chia pet in this pic. Reminds me of a porcupine! I love me some Danny like crazy but I want him to look like he did on the show!!!!
Cheryl,
I’m listening to YASB now…Just want to reach through
that computer and grab me some Danny…
No one has volunteered to be Danny’s massage therapist!! C’mon ladies!!! I just have this vision of him sitting in his hotel room getting a fully body massage, resting, and sleeping!!! I am not sure why, but that’s just what I think he is doing right now.
Cheryl yah I am!
actully two of my nicknames are Disney and Cinderella! Lol!
Twitter: pjgvet
Jen-
That was such a good idea to contact the Mayor’s office! I also emailed when you told us to, but didn’t get a response.
I actually think there is a good chance they might do it, considering all they did for Danny last time.
Everyone else who lives in Milwaukee email too!
I vote for tour of the Lakefront Brewery (I know the guy who owns it, tee hee, inside contact!?), pictures by the Calatrava Art Museum, and sunset dinner out on one of those cruise ships on Lake Michigan!
Michelle I had already called dibs on being his post-massage cuddle buddy lol! I think Latrece mentioned the massage.
Karen, her name is Patti. That’s all I remember. She designs websites for a living. She loves Danny and designed her site in honor of him. I sent her an email months ago to tell her how much I liked the site. She emailed me back to thank me, she’s very nice.
Cheryl, that pic you posted on twitter with Danny in the purple shirt is really my all time favorite GORGEOUS DANNY pic. There are others that are my fave HOTTT Danny pics, but that one, with the hint of the big guns and that sexy smile and full head of thick hair just waiting to be tousled…ahhh!
Karen, I think that idea for Steph to do a bubble tweet is excellent! Steph, GO FOR IT!! Danny would LOVE THAT!!
Michelle, I will gladly volunteer to serve Danny as bodyguard, masseuse, chauffeur, whatever he needs and/or desires!! Signed sealed delivered, I’m HIS!!!!
Stephanie, gotta add my opinion on your poem about dreams….it’s a keeper!
Why don’t all of us get together and we can all massage
Danny..?? Everybody has a certain part to massage…?
Michelle, have you noticed Latrece isn’t on here tonight??? Betcha any money she’s with Danny in GA giving him that massage we’ve all been gabbing about! She’s a sneaky one, that Latrece!
Pam, yes, a dinner cruise on the lake or river would be amazing!
Why not any and all send emails? You don’t have to be from here …but could say you WOULD be here spending your hard-earned cash IF there were an Idols Day in Milwaukee!!! Nothing like a little extra revenue to get the political wheels a’turnin!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Jen and VC and all the Milwaukee gang – I sent this email to [email protected]
Please consider making August 28th American Idol Day, much the way the city celebrated Danny Gokey Day. I think it would be a wonderful way for the City of Milwaukee to not only honor Danny again, but to open their hearts to all of the Idols and show them what a wonderful city Milwaukee is and how wonderful the people of Milwaukee are. Danny Gokey has a big heart and I think he would be thrilled and proud if his hometown showed his fellow idols how big the city’s heart is!
Karen, I’m gonna keep it G-rated. I volunteer to massage his lips with my mouth!
Haha! I would be so nervous I wouldn’t know waht to say!
Shirl,
Patti did an excellant job…I listened to the music while
reading it…How often do you go there???
Very nice, Cheryl. The heartfelt part is especially good. Gotta get something written to her myself now.
Gonna sign off for tonight. A very good night to all Gokey Girls near and far!! And to Danny
Cheryl has been very subtle and direct regarding the hair scenario. I don’t think he’s checking twitter today though, and tomorrow he will have so many to read, don’t know he will get through them all.
Steph
All you have to do, is get all dolled up..put your purple
shirt on hold up the sign…Say, “Danny this is what you
missed”…You can do that!!
I will email Mayor Barrett’s office tomorrow. I just checked the tour schedule and the idols will be coming from Detroit 8/26 and will have a day off in Milwaukee before the 8/28 show. We could see some sightings and touring around on their day off. Wouldn’t it be funny to run into one of them walking around the city!!
Goodnight VC–sleep well
Shirl,
You got the good part to masssage…I’m not doing his feet….
Shirl – I think you are right. Latrece dissappeared into the night and so did Danny!!! Woaaaaaa… he did need some TLC and a nurse!!
Karen, I kinda forget to go there since, sad to say, she’s not really in the community like Amy’s site, IDF, GG and some of the other more popular sites. Tonight was the first I visited the site since before the tour, actually.
Even if no one seems to pay much attention to her site, she is really dedicated in keeping it up to date and current. I feel loyal to where I am right now so kind of hate to “advertise” it anywhere, but I did mention it on Twitter as just a regular public tweet.
Karen, I don’t see anybody else jumping in here to take dibs on a favorite part of Danny to massage, so I’d say it’s pretty good pickin’s right now (hint, hint, hint)

Cheryl-
Nice email! Way to subtly get what you want!
Good Night all. Hope we get a tweet from DAnny tommorrow and hope he feels better.
You guys can do the massagin I’m not very good @ that! Lol! I’m the perfect size to squeeze!
Shirl,
I’m like you…I don’t want to go to any other site, I’m
happy here. But she did a good job..
Steph,
You saw my suggestion on the bubbletweet and what I told
you to do….GO FOR IT… VC is right..Danny would love it
Looks like Shirl, Stephanie and I will have to take care of
Danny….
So I think I might say to Danny that I wanted to give him a voice and face to the name that he heard all day.

Steph Definately do a bubble tweet. Danny will love it!
Karen You better not be trying to steal the body part that I already had dibs on! I want to massage the best part of him! You can all fight over the back, legs, arms, feet, chest, lips while I’m gettin’ busy with the part of him that gets busy!
Karen we will do such an awesome job giving him some TLC he just might keep us on call! Lol!

Steph that’s perfect. You should tell him that you thought he might want to meet the mystery girl that everyone was tweeting him about.

Steph and hold up one of your gifts that you brought him. Maybe the Aladdin gift
I will take the 6 pack abs, thank you!
Stephanie – great idea – bubble tweet from the “sweetie” from Tampa that had to watch the tour bus drive away without a hug!!! You deserve something special for that dedication!
I just hope he would see it! Lol!
Cheryl – you are one of Danny’s favorites, you should do a bubble tweet from the fans on this site. I don’t have web cam and I don’t think I want one!! LOL!!
Stephanie – you know the old saying, if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again! If you don’t get a response on your bubble tweet – send him another one.
Also, try to send it when you know he might be on his computer, late at night, first thing in the am. etc. Just a thought.
Cheryl – those links you posted of Danny/Allsion during Don’t stop believing don’t work any more. I wanted to see the famous picture of Megan’s hair and I can’t find it! Everyone was talking it about it and I would love to see it.

Michelle I don’t have a web cam either. I don’t evern have a digital camera. I buy those throw away cameras at Walgreens!!!
Michelle Good idea, just don’t wanna sound like a stalker. Lol!
Cheryl and I are about the same when it comes to all the latest in technology! Disposable cameras, no webcam, no Blackberry, etc!
Stephanie, I also think you should do a bubble tweet to Danny, and hold up your sign and wear your purple!
I’m going to bed. I’ll let Karen and Cheryl decide what to do about a love train and a tunnel of love! And with that, I am outta here for now, will catch y’all on the flip side!
Stephanie – not to worry, we are all one step away from stalker status – LOL!!
You should see all of the tweets Danny is getting tonight, I think all of his tweeps are wondering what’s up since it’s been over 24 hours since his last tweet!
I think the majoity rules! as soon as I get the opportunity I will try to do a bubble tweet to danny!

Michelle I noticed Danny has been getting lots of tweets. Half of them are from me!!!!! I miss him.

Steph I changed my gravatar to one of your Danny pics!
awesome!
Cheryl,
New gravatar…Love it…Think I found one that I really
love, so I’m sticking with it for awhile
Good night Shirl
Steph
When can we expect your bubbletweet??
as soon as I can figure it out and get the guts! lol! don’t worry I will do it soon. and not the Danny version of soon! hahaha!
Michelle
Never did hear from you about what part you want to
massage on Danny..Don’t wait to long the good parts might
be all gone..
LOL LOL LOL!!!!! this conversation we’ve been having about Danny’s special massage is cracking me up!!!!! I love it!
So you like that Steph…??
Guess I’ll say goodnight…Talk with you tomorrow..Hope
you have sweet dreams of Danny..

Danny’s hair…Love Danny to death but please that style
