My inner fangirl was screaming so loud while Danny was singing ‘Back at One’ that was almost ridiculous! Man, that was awesome! I’ve been wanting to hear him singing that song since he mentioned it!

Back At One

What Hurts The Most

Thank you TandyMan93!

TeenMusic: Carrie Underwood “Plays On”

I know that this will be the third time I’ll post about this press conference with Carrie but it’s so nice to read people who know Danny personally talking about him…

TeenMusic: You mentioned that you vote. From this past season, do you have some favorites that you’d like to talk about now?
Carrie: I really like Chris [sic] Allen. He seemed really genuine and he was from my neck in the woods. I use to do a few shows here and there in Connelly, Arkansas. So it was cool to see not a hometown boy, because it was still a four hour drive, but from my neck of the woods. I love Danny Gokey, too. I thought he was just the sweetest person. I’ve gotten to know him a little bit from the show and he’s hanging out in Nashville now, so hopefully he’ll be done with his stuff and be on his way because I think he’s really sweet.

All together now: Awwwwwwww…

Grafton Christmas Celebration: Val’s Recap

Val wrote about her experience of going to the Grafton Christmas Celebration and Parade to see Danny Gokey on the comments here at iheartdannygokey.com and very graciously allowed me to post it. Val has met Danny on several occasions before as she tries to go as frequently as possible to Danny’s events. Anyway, it’s heartwarming. Enjoy!

Hello, everyone! Had a beautiful Danny Day! Went to the parade and met up with so many Gokey girls/guys. Yes, Danny was in the back of a pick-up truck, but it’s just a small town parade and it didn’t seem strange at all. I was able to run up to Danny and give him a candy cane (lol) and he remembered my name! yaaay! The cops didn’t like it, but I just had to get up close to D! He was looking wonderful, as usual!

Danny was at the end and after Danny went past, people started leaving, even tho Santa had not yet arrived (Santa was the last of the parade).

Then we went to pjgvet’s house for lunch. So much fun to meet Latrece, New Cindy, Jannika, NY ladies, and many others. We took group pics (to follow).

Danny event turned out to be a concert by the Grafton H.S. marching band, a speech by their most beloved citizen, and some other local people that nobody except the locals knew (nobody outside of Grafton knows anything about the place!). But it was touching that the school kids got together and sold purple hearts for SHF and presented Danny with a check for $750 on their behalf. He gave heartfelt thanks to those kids!

What else? D sang Stand by Me, then he left (it was just a teaser) and they introduced a bunch of other people who talked and talked while we squirmed around in our seats trying to be patient. He came out later and sand Best Days. Gorgeous voice! Oh yeah. Then he talked about how much It’s Only meant to him and he had everyone feelin it! After that, he did PYT and invited all the kids to join him to dance & sing along. So fun! But waaaaaaaaaay too short.

I wasn’t with the VIP’s (natch), so can’t comment on the behind-the-scenes action. Waiting to hear from the others on that!

BTW, they roped off the sections of the bleachers closest to the stage and we weren’t allowed to sit there, but some kids got up there later after things were underway. There was a sizeable crowd for such a small venue and it was really nice and intimate.

I sat next to Michelle & her kids & my mom, sis, niece dead-center in front of Danny about 14 rows back. We had to scramble to get those seats cuz it was unreserved seating and the first 4 rows were reserved for Danny’s family and the family of the honored citizen (Norbert something) of Grafton. Very small town stuff, but still really fun.

It really was awesome that those kids worked so hard to raise that kind of money. Danny mentioned that SHF had given 100 turkeys to families in Nashville, had fed 470 people Thanksgiving meals at a church in Milwaukee, and had contributed to the feeding of 1800 people in LA via Sophia’s Heart L.A. He informed people that he doesn’t receive any money from SHF and it’s all to help others. This was before he sang ‘It’s Only.”

Pretty awesome.

Oh, also, I chatted with his dad after the show. I complimented him on how great his son is and he said Danny’s always been the same caring person that he is today. Mr. Gokey was really proud of his son and thanked my mom for voting for Danny more than 400 times every Tues night on American Idol! lol So cute!

I bought the tix for my sis, mom, niece & myself as soon as they went on sale not even knowing that it would be possible to buy VIP tix. I just got the tix that were advertised for $15. The VIP tix were $75 and people found out about them because pjgvet contacted the Grafton Chamber of Commerce and enquired …it seemed that they did it as an afterthought once they realized that people would pay more for the opportunity to meet Danny after the concert. Everyone had the same general seating during the concert, but those with VIP tix got to go to a secret room after the concert to meet & greet & hug Danny! *tears rolling down her face*

But, keepin it real, I have had the good fortune of meeting Danny several times now, so it didn’t kill me! That’s why I just had to rush to say hi to him at the parade!
