Hello Dannyland! I read yesterday’s comments this morning and was so happy to see that Danny is climbing up the charts. However, when I went to check the iTunes Country top 100 chart I did not see Danny’s MBD there at all. I think it was Pam who listed Danny’s current status in different charts and Danny should have been 25th on the iTunes chart? Am I missing something and possibly looking at a wrong chart?
Looking forward to hear the news today, which I assume involve Danny upcoming tour schedule.
Have a lovely day!

Morning ladies~~~
Hi Hannele! Last time I check MBD was at #167 on country chart and can’t find it on the overall chart…
Is Danny going to be on FM 106.1 this morning announcing “big news”? I’ve been listening to it for an hour but didn’t hear Danny’s name at all… Am I listening to the right station?
I hope someone relay or post a link for Danny. Is there a link to hear Danny??
Hannele,
Were you looking for the song or the music video. Danny’s single MBD is #164 on the Itunes chart and the music video is #28.
Glad to see Danny at #38 today on mediabase. I haven’t seen the published chart for last week yet. I am hoping that Danny can stay in the top 40 this week but he has new songs from Reba, Tim McGraw, Craig Morgan and David Nail coming up close hehind him. Hopefully there will be enough songs going recurrent also this week Dierks Bentley, George Strait to keep him in the top 40.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Hey Latrece! Here’s the link to FM 106.1:
http://www.fm106.com/mediaplayer/?station=WMIL-FM&action=listenlive&channel_title=
But I hear nothing about it so far…
lulu I think the Milwaukee residents are listening to Danny from their personal tv or radio, but no one is not on ihrt maybe they will post what Danny says later. I guess since it’s aired in their city, they don’t have to come on ihrt!!
Hi everyone.
Danny is currently #37 on the 7 Day rolling chart on allaccess. He is up 125 spins for the week.
Twitter: karatemom34
Good morning everyone, Latrece I have the same link as lulu, I got it off their twitter!! I don’t hear anything about it yet, it’s supposed to be on at 7:10
Twitter: karatemom34
They just talked about having some concert news coming up!
Twitter: pjgvet
Morning guys!
I’m listening! They mentioned it, its coming.
Sorry about the iTunes info; I think she must have meant the music video was at #25 last night
FOGS, Danny is up 125 spins just from yesterday on the rolling? Or do you mean that is for the whole week…

OMG; they are never going to fit everyone in!
How long are we going to have to stand in the cold!
This is crazy

Pam is it that small of a place?
Twitter: pjgvet
Yeah Toni!
You don’t need to spend $$ on a hotel this time Toni! I will email you!
Twitter: karatemom34
Toni We’ll have to make sure we get there pretty early before
I am glad that Milwaukee fans will get to see Danny perform there for his CD release concert. I hope you guys have fun at that event.
Twitter: pjgvet
Thanks FOGS, I figured as much!
Cindy, not sure- but I don’t think it is that huge!
Knowing Milgokey people they will stand in line for a long time.
I work that day, but am done at 1pm.
Twitter: karatemom34
Be back in a bit

Its 7000 sq feet; not sure how that translates into seats
Cindy you are coming! I’m sure Jan will too
Twitter: tonicny
I just checked fare cost and I can use my free ticket and I can even work the day before there is a late flight. I just hope that his CD will be available in our area that week before. Yeah! these are the concerts to go to.
Twitter: karatemom34
Pam how early do you think they would get there to wait??
Twitter: karatemom34
Pam yes I want to come! I’ll start on my arrangements now!!
Twitter: tonicny
We will stand in line for as long as it takes. Got to call Jan. Off to work.

Exciting for the Milwaukee fans
MJ and Brian Mansfield have posted about Danny breaking into the top 40
http://mjsbigblog.com/monday-morning-mediabase-update-feb-1-7.htm/comment-page-1#comment-576430
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/idolchatter/post/2010/02/idol-airplay-kris-allen-adam-lambert-and-more/1?csp=34
Danny also moved up a few spots on Brian’s “Idol airplay” list across all genres.
Twitter: pjgvet
At his homecoming I waited in line for 2 or 3 hours (was a beautiful warm sunny day!). We weren’t the first; maybe about the 30th in line. But that was a Friday afternoon. This is a Saturday night, yikes!
Twitter: karatemom34
Pam Are we going to have to camp out the night before to be able to get in? lol
Twitter: Owlki
Sooo jealous of Milgokey peeps right now!
I updated the post with the audio of the announcement and link to the theater’s site. It’s pretty cool and they used the article Brian Mansfield wrote about the Grand Ole Opry debut… that one that mentions us!
Yay!
Pam, are you going? Can you buy a CD for me there and ask him to sign it? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease?
Twitter: pjgvet
Of course Erika! If I get in, you will get your signed CD!
Cindy, I have never been a winter camper; I am not THAT crazy!
Such great news this morning. If I were in the US I would have definitely gone to the coming out concert.
Luckily, somebody always records it, if not the whole thing then just bits, and we all can see what it was like. I bet that’s going to be a very moving and historic concert for him as well.
Luckily no. 2, slow day at work, so I was able to pummel in about 200 votes on CMT today thus far. Gotta go and vote more.
Twitter: steph6449
Saw this… one date when Danny and the others we’ve heard about won’t be there, it seems
Today, February 08, 2010, 34 minutes ago
They announced the Sugarland concert for ATL and Danny Gokey is NOT on the bill. Little Big Town is opening. Darn!!!!!
I wonder if they may be mixing in some changes to account for the dates that got cancelled last year. I think Little Big Town was one of the other acts in the tour packege which had Sugarland in 2009.
Twitter: pjgvet
Steph, I was hoping they would announce the tour plans now!
The suspense is too much!
Esp. since MIT teased us with that info last night- don’t really want to believe it and be disappointed.
Bosman, I’ve been working on CMT, but don’t quite have your nimble fingers, lol!
Twitter: steph6449
At least for now, Danny seems to have passed the corn song on the mediabase 7-day chart. Makes me happy for two reasons there
http://www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/insideradio/charts.asp?format=11&showtopn=1000&cutoff=1
Twitter: Owlki
Turner Ballroom Hall has no fixed seating and holds about 1,200 people. http://www.biztimes.com/news/2006/8/4/ballroom-enhancing
Twitter: Owlki
Thanks Pam!
I wish everyone that is going a wonderful, wonderful Danny time!
I have voted for Danny 20 times already this morning on CMT and of course I voted on GAC, we got to get Danny on the GAC list!! I wish there was a pool of 50,000 people voting in one day for Danny!! Cindy sweetheart thanks for keeping me informed, so now I just have to make arrangements!! if any MILWAUKEES can determine what would be the best time to arrive at the venue, it would be much appreciated!! The Milwaukeans are so blessed to have the pleasure of seeing a full concert of Danny in their State practically free. vote vote vote vote!! off to take care of business bye!! oh !! I really really apreciate the international fans for voting vigilantly for Danny, Thank you!!!
Brilliant idea for Danny’s concert in Milwaukee. Just think how many CD’s he will sell if buying the CD is admission to the concert – is that correct? I am getting excited about Danny’s first week sales, especially if he is also performing on Idol that week. I want his album to be #1 on the country charts sooo bad. I don’t care about the overall chart as much as the country chart because country media pay more attention to where they debut on the country chart. Less than a month away – hope everyone has put away money to buy his album the first week.
AND
Great news on the mediabase chart and Idol chatter blog from Brian with Danny at #38. Things are once again falling into place nicely for Mr. Gokey.
Morning all! So happy for you guys! Just saw the big news. You know what this means, don’t you?
I am near positive, this means you will be hearing the entire album start to finish. This is typically what is done at these shows.
I can’t even be jealous for you all. It is only fitting that Danny do this show close to home. Must say, I wondered if it would take place in Nashville or even NY, but love this hometown approach.
Congrats guys!
Yippee for that news too, Lizzy. Everything he touches is golden!
Twitter: Owlki
bedtime for me. 2 am is getting awfully close! nite, nite!
Twitter: pjgvet
Erika, thank you for that information! Wow, 1200 is not very big.
Latrece, your guess is as good as anyone here in Milwaukee! Like I said before, for his homecoming concert I waited in line a couple of hours before; although the hype is pretty big for homecomings I think. His Riverside talk event was only about half full, but we only knew about it a few days ahead and it was during the weeknight. He did have thousands of entries for that FM106 concert so I would expect similar for this……….
I wonder how much it will be advertised on Fox here? I’m sure it will be mentioned
Twitter: Owlki
Pam, Fox 6 wrote an article with date and time but I didn’t see any video of a news segment. Maybe closer to the date…
http://bit.ly/aVfnq8
Lizzy
I really like the idea of him doing the concert and having the admission be people buying his CD. I wish that he could have more concerts like this, it would be a nice way for him to sell some CD’s. And he’s only be gaining from it.
I know he has done a lot of free concerts for radio stations since the radio tour began and he benefitted by getting exposure/radio airplay from them. With this concert he will benefit by selling more CD’s.
As far as where he will debut on the Country albums chart, I’m not sure what will happen there. I think he will make at least Top 10 on the Country albums chart, and I think it would be really nice if he could make top 5. Anything better than Top 5 would be fantastic IMO.
Blake Shelton is releasing an EP that week, and he’s selling it for really cheap, and he’s more popular than Danny is.
I think that Billboard does factor in EP’s when they are ranking their album charts. Easton Corbin is also releasing his CD that week, and his song is #11 on the Country chart. Lady Antebellum and Taylor Swift could continue with strong sales that week, and could find themselves in the Top 5.
So I am not sure where Danny will land that week but hopefully he will make at least Top 10 country and maybe Top 5 or better.
Twitter: pjgvet
Oh Lizzy, IDK about that; Turner Hall only holds 1200 and I have a feeling all those people would have bought the CD anyway!
Thank goodness, I will have already bought the CD so I can listen to it without spoiling !
Maryann, I know isn’t it sweet <3 Danny is such a loyal guy. He has not (and never will) forget the awesome support Milwaukee has given him.
Twitter: steph6449
That’s a pretty ad running for that show in Milwaukee. I’m glad they aren’t using one of the old AI photos like you sometimes see. http://pabsttheater.org/gokey
I don’t know if that YT clip they have framed there is really his official video, however. It may be a faker
Danny’s official YT channel now has one running that’s connected through Vevo.
Twitter: steph6449
mj’s included the news about the release party in her Headlines
http://mjsbigblog.com/idol-headlines-for-020810.htm
Twitter: pjgvet
Ah, I see you must purchase your CD at the door! So there will certainly be extra sales involved =)
Twitter: steph6449
I wonder if they will have a children’s price on the CD to go to that show.
Otherwise just Danny’s extended family should rack up a lot of ticket sales

article about Danny in the Shepherd Express
http://www.expressmilwaukee.com/blog-4880-danny-gokey-to-play-record-release-concert-at-turn.html
Wonder why they didn’t put Danny in a bigger venue? It is going to be mayhem in Wilwaukee with everyone trying to get into that show! Didn’t he draw like 26,000 for his homecoming? Was that the crazy figure?
Then again, maybe that is what they are looking for… lots of publicity. Sounds a little unsafe though. I am going to pray you all get an unseasonably warm day that day for standing in line.
Somehow, I bet you get it.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Hi everyone! Big news for Danny: the debut of his CD! I am so happy for him. I can only imagine what it feels like for him to hear those words. Dreams do come true.
Once again, the date Danny will be in Milwaukee does not fit into my schedule. I will be in Wisconsin, but not Milwaukee! My father-in-law is turning 80 on March 8th and the party is on that Saturday. Ron is flying in to surprise him. I was disappointed when I heard the date of the concert, but then I realized that Danny will be around for a long, long time and I will have other opportunities to hear him sing in concert.
I know there will be lots of Ihearties and other fans flying from other parts of the country to see him. Hopefully everyone gets in!! I know it will be a joyful time for all.
Maryann
That’s a good idea about putting Danny in a bigger venue. I hope that all the Danny fans that want to get into the venue do.
I was looking at the wrong chart.. Great to hear that some of you Iheart ladies are going to see Danny in concert in Milwaukee. I do think that the venue is a bit small and what will happen if many people are left outside?
I can’t wait to be able to play Danny’s CD in proper stereo system. I’m going to savour the moment and prepare for it. I have noticed that my boyfriend is also looking forward to listen to Danny’s CD. I think I’m brainwashing him to become a real Danny Gokey fan. He has always loved Danny’s voice, but now he is actually asking for news on the concert schedule and the release date for the CD etc.
It’s great to be able to share all this with him.
Twitter: steph6449
Harrisburg PA station WRBT-FM added Danny’s song
Twitter: steph6449
was looking at that mediabase chart again. you can sort it different ways. if you look at who had the greatest movement upward in their points system last week, Danny is #18
http://www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/insideradio/charts.asp?PRINTMODE=N&OB=5
Twitter: pjgvet
I don’t get it Steph; that was the pop chart?
Perhaps anyone who doesn’t get in at the concert on March 6th, Danny will come outside and do an impromptu concert for you!!
wouldn’t put it past him!!
Long post about to come up!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Maryann and Hannele
I was a bit concerned about the venue size too, but when Danny had a free event at the Riverside theatre there were not very many people there (although, he did not sing and it was on a week day), so his management may be thinking that the number of people will be limited. They might also be taking into consideration many people will have already bought the CD and won’t want to buy it again, and those people with children may not want to pay for more than one cd, so they either won’t bring kids, which will mean less people, or won’t come at all. I think you also have to remember that even though Danny is from Milwaukee, his fan base is limited there, just as it is in any other city. I would guess that seating for 1200 people is NOT enough but I don’t think the crowd is going to be so overwhelming that a lot of people will leave upset because they didn’t get in. It may also help that since they have announced that it is a smaller venue, a number of people will stay home thinking that they won’t get in.
Good Day Ihearties!!
also can’t wait to hear the ‘tour’ news confirmed!
It’s been a while since I posted – I have only really just caught up with everything! I have been down a long dark road but slowly walking back up it –so ‘posting’ will be sporadic.
Good to hear Danny made Top 40 – yay!!
I bet you MilGokey peeps are excited about Danny’s concert on March 6th!!
Re Maryann’s comment about how she has a ‘feeling’ about Danny’s success. (BTW I agree!) I posted a long while ago about how I thought Danny’s career would take off and he would be the brightest star shining in Milwaukee – well now he will be the brightest star shining all over America and beyond!! I believe Shirl said she liked that comment, think it was way back last summer I posted that!!
Wow how things have just ‘grown’ for Danny over the past months – he is truly becoming established in the world of Country music. He is gaining more fans thanks to his appearances at radio stations and private concerts. I am hoping that once Adam has ‘done the rounds’ in theUK, Danny will be next!! Timing is everything in the world of music these days! I am not really interested in Adam (just not my taste in music) but I wish him success in his career.
Pam-I also emailed ‘Stormcountry’ Radio and thanked them for placing Danny on their ‘B’ list. Also mentioned about interviewing him so hope they pick up on that!!
Latrece – hey there girl! glad to see you enjoyed Toni’s video footage of that very attractive ‘mirror’ in the ‘Get Away’ song!! Ha!
Rachel – forgive me if I am wrong – but is it your birthday tomorrow? If so and I don’t get to post then: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Thanks for providing some lovely photos and that tour info’ re Danny, you are still our ‘photo’ detective’
Jan & Toni – just to say I loved your recap of your trip to see & meet Danny!! Sounds like you girls had great fun and it was certainly worth it!! Your video footage is great and it’s not bad quality at all!
Shirl – hope you enjoying your trip away and make sure you keep your copy of ‘Country Weekly’ safe so you can get Danny to sign it – when you get to meet him!
shame you won’t get to see her in her play though 
I know you will – just you wait & see!! Look what happened to our ‘Princess’ Stephanie
I love ‘Life On Ya’, ‘Get Away’ & ‘Be Somebody’ – all great upbeat songs with a cool rhythm!
I just have a feeling, this will be a cd that is played over and over, never skipping a track because each one is a ‘gem’ of a song.
I would love to see IWNSG as a lead song in a major movie – how fantastic would that be?! Then everyone will hear Danny’s amazing vocals and emotions that just pour out of him!!
Oh well – long post for first day ‘back’- sorry!! Skip it if you want
Peace out!!
Twitter: steph6449
for Jan, Toni, one of you asked about anywhere to send recaps for Danny’s concert at Nola’s.
This is one with a country music blog site. Probably for this would want to come from the viewpoint of a country fan as well as a Danny fan, and not too fangirly
Maybe just try something short with some pics and your video?
” Country Girl wants you to be a Tattle Tale! Have you been to a country concert lately? Run into a country artist while out on the town? We want to hear all about your country music news and entertainment. Email me at [email protected] ”
Someone had also mentioned Country Weekly, I think.
Twitter: steph6449
Pam, that was the mediabase country 7-day chart. you can sort it different ways. I was looking at the “Move” column which shows how many points a different artist went up or down during the 7-day period.
Danny was #18 by that view, which to me suggests his pace solidifying himself and moving up the charts accelerated noticeably this past week. He gained over 100 spins, which was more than a 25% increase.

poster named Connie D at mj’s just posted this in the Headlines thread
” PollstarPro is listing Turner Hall Ballroom with a capacity of 987. Very nice size for this event, I think.
I emailed the venue to verify the specific capacity for Danny’s show, and just got a reply: 987 ”
don’t remember her posting about Danny before
Twitter: pjgvet
Yes, another poster that is “too cool” for Danny. My husband couldn’t let that go, lol.
I must have a faulty link Steph- I get the pop chart for mediabase; but I will take your word that he is #18!
I still think the venue could be too small,but I suppose the management team know they are doing.. We were listening to Sugarland’s CD over the weekend and think that Danny and Sugarland are a good match for the concert tour. That female lead singer has a strong voice and puts a lot of passion in her singing and it would actually be fantastic to hear Danny sing with her at some point!
987? I think he could easily take on a venue with 3,000 – 5,000.
I was thinking the same thing, Hannele. I hope Danny does a duet or two with Jennifer while on tour. That would be so awesome.
Maryann, I totally agree with you. They should promote Danny’s home town concert in a big way and trust that people want to hear a concert full of new songs from Danny.
Maryann, if Danny ever does do a duet with somebody it has to be a singer who is as passionate about her singing/message as Danny is. I think this Jennifer definitely would be a great choice for a duet. Her voice doesn’t leave you “cold”.
I have no point of reference for what has been done for the psuedo winner and co/winner of Season 8, but can share what happened with David Cook.
He had a special CD blow-out celebration and concert at the Hard Rock Cafe in NY. I believe their venue capacity is around 600-700.
He sold copies of his album as an admission price, and he sang the entire album. Also, did autographs afterwords.
Dressed really flashy. It was a big publicity matter.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Julie I hope all is well with you and only continue to get better. If you get a chance and haven’t done so yet, watch the video tribute KnowVacancy put up on YouTube featuring Danny singing IWNSG with clips from the movie Dear John. It is beautiful and really does make you realize how perfect the song would be for a movie soundtrack. The moment I heard Danny sing the song, my first reaction was that it should be used in a movie.
I’m guessing when Danny guests on AI in March, he will be singing MBD but I sure wish he was singing IWNSG. The audience would be so moved by it and what would even be better, is millions of viewers would be exposed to the song and they would want to buy Danny’s whole album. Maybe they will let Danny sing 2 songs!!!
So glad to see Danny is moving up the charts at a steady pace.
I know nobody needs a reminder, but make sure to keep on voting on CMT!

I think you need to remember there is a signing after the concert so they need to limit due to time.
Hi Cheryl, I vote every day as soon as I log on my computer. I’m actually doing the same as Pam and resisting the need to listen to Danny’s new songs. I have only listened to one short clip of IWNSG. It’s only few more weeks before the CD is out and I will stay strong!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Just a random thought: I have always wished that someone would film Danny’s rise to stardom. It would be great to see a video of Danny on his radio tours and his show in Milwaukee so that we could see the making of a country star on film.
DC’s event wasn’t sponsored through a radio station. Perhaps, that is the difference. Makes me wonder if there is another premiere (yet to be announced) occurring on or darn near close to 3-2-1-0, that will be flasher and be in Nashville.
The matter of ticketing was handled differently too. People lined up at a nearby record store in the morning to make the CD purchase, then were given a wristband for admission into the show later.
Thanks Cheryl – I will look out for that YouTube clip when I get home from work, am leaving off very soon
thanks for asking how I am – yes I feel the storm is passing and calm seas may be ahead 
It’s been a while but I do read your Twitter and you make me smile!
Thank you acknowledging my post -sorry mispelt that!

Hannele I sure wish I had as much willpower as you and Pam. I know some other fans who haven’t heard ANY of his songs (other that MBD) because they want to be surprised. What a beautiful surprise it will be! I wish I could hear all 7 of the songs with fresh ears on March 2nd! I can’t wait to hear your reaction and the others when you hear the songs for the first time.
The more I think about it, something more is coming. There has to be a special event sponsored by his label on the release date. Hope it is stellar, and they make it really nice for him.
Not that Milwaukee isn’t great… you guys know what I am saying!
I hope they bring out some fellow country stars and media. Glitz it up. Dress him to the 9′s in Nashville! Maybe, stream his show!
Good for you, Julie. Was wondering where you had been.
Unfortunately it’s time for me to log off and leave for home. It’s nearly 7 pm and it takes me a hour to get home. It would be nice to stay and chat with you, but there isn’t much that I can do about the time difference.
Take care ladies!
Thanks Maryann – see my post at 11.04am – I mentioned you!!
Am about to go home so see you on the other side!!
Hi everyone, I`m earlier today! But had to come on and say HOW HAPPY I AM for all you MilGokey girls(and guys?)-It`s typical of Danny to debut his album in his hometown- I HOPE you all get in!Because it won`t just be local fans, will it? Cannot WAIT for the videos of this one!! Hope everyone is keeping well, I`m about to commence some alternative healing, had enough of conventional medicine-I still have sinusitis left over from the swine flu! We are about to commence a European onslaught, with the European site, more radio stations and MEDIA BLITZ-that`s newspapers, magazines and T.V.- Again, thank you for your support and remember to comment on the radio stations over here-IF you can fit it all in with voting and YOUR radio stations, oh, and LIFE, where does that fit in??
This is an exciting time, another chapter beginning-we should savour it-because it is yet another `transformation` for Danny- Just think, this time last year, he was still in AI!!
Julie! Hi, hope you are okay and that your family problems are easing, thankyou for taking the time to contact Storm Country Radio, we did, too!! See you when you come back later.

Hi Carole! I love you and all the international fans who are working so hard to promote Danny. He couldn’t have a more devoted fan base than everyone here and overseas!

Hmm, well that pattern with Sugarland tour just broke. Julianne Hough is announced as the supporting act with Vonda Shepard for the concert in Bakersfield. That’s in addition to the Santa Barbara date previously announced where it seems to be just Vonda advertised to date.
Does seem to be a mix and match sort of tour.

Hi everyone! Sorry to leave so abruptly Pam, I read your comment about not being a winter camper, I’m not either, but I will do it for Danny!! lol So excited he’ll be in MIlw one last time!! I popped in because I’ve been emailing and tweeting a radio station wncy from my area about putting MBD on their playlist and they emailed me back this morning and said they would forward my email to their music director for consideration!! So keep your fingers crossed that they will add MBD do their playlist!!
Hey latrece don’t know if you’re here but my sis and her hubby might come again with me!! She’s checking her schedule!!
hiya all,you are right julie tomorrow is my birthday i have one more day of only being 29 yikes lol

Danny just got an add from Dial Global (Hot Country)
Rachel, which radio station gave Danny the cake?
BTW, did you all notice how expertly Danny held that baby?
Twitter: steph6449
Had never heard of Dial Global. Appears it offers radio programming that satellite radio or maybe regular stations can use. Hot Country is apparently one of their shows.
http://www.dial-global.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=28
That Whitney who has the syndicated The Big Time show is one of their offerings also.
Twitter: steph6449
Another add for Danny today — WGTY-FM in York PA
Hey Rachel – cute,cute photo of Danny with that gorgeous baby!!
I couldn’t see the photo at your post at 12.54 though – am not on face book 
Wow so you will be the big 30 then – you don’t look your age – I thought you were only about 25-26
That’s a good point, Danielle about Danny needing time to sign CD’s after the concert. That is probably one of the reasons why the venue isn’t bigger.
Also I wonder if Danny’s CD will also be sold in The Opry shop, the day he’s signing them there?
Hi guys,
WOW….
It is only a couple of minutes ago I discovered that the CMT vote page accepts the “enter” keyboard key as the vote button in the Firefox browser. I do not know how IE and other browsers react, but this certainly speeds up the voting process exponentially as it obviates the need to go to the bottom of the page and click on the vote button. I do not know how IE behaves with this?
Mouse-scrolling takes so much time. So, mouse is needed only to open tabs and re-load them. Hitting on the “page down” key repeatedly gets you to Danny, once you mark his song, hit the enter and the vote is in.
Twitter: steph6449
Bosman, glad you are on the case about the votes
I’ll have to try that on my next voting session.
Thanks Bosman
Twitter: karatemom34
Hey Rachel I liked those pics!!! lol
Twitter: steph6449
Bosman’s trick works on IE. Playing with the technique a little more, you can also do Edit–>Find which keeps a little window at the top of the page. If you enter a term matching Danny’s entry, like “Gokey” you can click on that to bring yourself back to Danny’s entry quickly.
So just a few clicks and no scrolling. Hit the vote page, hit find, hit enter, then repeat however often you can stand
i believe a radio station in harrisburg ellen but it was at a warehouse of some sort.
lol that’s what they all say julie people think i’m like 13 eek i am not that young jeeze lol aw that sucks you shouldn’t see the pictures
lol cindy
i gave danny my number lol i told him i wanted a birthday call i doubt he will call me tho he will be to busy but that’s okay.
Yea, I am totally maniacal about voting today. This week will be crucial to get him as high as possible because passive fans are not yet voting for him. I have a feeling next week Carrie fans will vote only for Temporary Home. This week their vote might still be split between Casanova and Home so Danny has this chance NOW. We only have to vote 3 times more than we did last week.
If we could get him into the top 3, that could be considered as a significant thing. And on Friday the voting is closed, so Thursday is the last day for this week vote.
C’mon guys, less tweeting, more voting.
Hi Everyone….
Great news about Danny. I haven’t met him yet and would love to go to Turner Hall. Would be great to meet all of you as well after getting to know you on this site. A big factor will be the weather of course…you never know here is WI!! I know I could get there early, but if there’s a bad wind chill……. =( Too bad it isn’t being held at a larger place – They probably will need to turn away fans….
I agree with everyone who thinks IWNSG will be a hit…I feel it too!! Things are getting more exciting every day!!
Twitter: karatemom34
Coriellen How far away are you from danny’s event in milw?
Hi everyone! Had a rare chance to get online this afternoon to read all the latest, and I was anxious to hear the news that was due to break this morning.
Of course I’m green with envy that you Milgokey gals get to see/hear Danny again, but I think it’s wonderful that he is debuting his new album in his hometown…that’s only right, and good marketing. Plus you know he’s just gonna love all the love he’s gonna get!
I can’t fly into Milwaukee for the March 6 show because we will still be here in Florida. But like Cheryl said (and thanks for reminding me, Cheryl, LOL!) that Danny’s going to be around a long long time and there will be plenty of chances to see him in concert
Pam, thanks for explaining about MIT in answer to my question. With those initials, all I could think of was Massachusetts Institute of Technology! :\
Would also like to say how happy I am with how nicely Danny is moving on up the charts, with spins and reaching #38 in the Top 40. I cannot even put into words how thrilled I am for him that everything is falling so nicely into place and he is getting all the recognition and more importantly, all the love he so well deserves!!!!
Off to read the rest of the posts here….so BBL! Sending my love to all of you!!!!!
Hey! Can’t stay too long, about to go to class.
That’s awesome that Danny’s doing a homecoming concert next month! Lucky Milgokey gals!!! lol
Anyway, I’ll be back later. Deuces <3
eek my avatar didn’t come out well lol
that’s what it’s suppose to look like it is the cutest

Hi New Cindy – I live in Waukesha – where are you located??
steph, that tip with find is exceeeelleeeent. Way to go!
It literally serves the vote box to be clicked. I also keep several tabs open for quicker loading. While I vote on some, the others are loading.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Glad to hear Danny is performing at the Jeffrey Steele event. I tweeted Danny a week ago to ask him if he would be performing and he never responded. So glad that the answer is YES. I had a feeling that since he has sung 1t least 3 of Jeffrey’s songs, he might be asked to perform. I think these events at which other country musicians and insiders are attending are really important for Danny. It gives him exposure to and acceptance by the industry people, not to mention the new fans he gains when performing!
That event is in honor of a young man who lost his life. If Danny sings IWNSG he will have that entire audience in tears. They will be so moved by his performance, just like I am everytime I hear him sing it.
Hey Rach – maybe the Ihearties who are on Twitter can tweet him for you?
I hope so as you deserve to have something from him – it’s your birthday!!!
Carole – we always seem to miss each other
sorry you are still suffering with the after effects of swine flu 
so many people have had it in this area.
Kudos to all you ladies up at that time – I just cannot do it!!
I hope you make a full recovery soon though
I do try to send the odd email in support of Danny but it’s finding the time. Emails and some internet stuff at work are blocked and when I get home- it’s busy, busy, busy!!
It has been a crazy few weeks for me and I am taking it easy as I don’t want to get sick. I don’t get paid if I don’t turn up for work unfortunately!
I posted earlier re Adam and hope that once the heat is off him then maybe Danny will be promoted over here. Although if he is on tour this summer, then we won’t be seeing him over here just yet!!
Hope to speak later Carole, but I am usually in bed when you come on!
I notice when looking back at the days posts, you are here early hours UK time
Laters!
aw thank you julie
Twitter: steph6449
Cheryl, or wouldn’t it be wonderful for Danny to sing Tiny Life with Jeffrey Steele there at an event in honor of his song.
Though for all we know, possibly Jeffrey could have been a co-writer for IWNSB also. But I think Danny would be mentioning that, if it were the case.
Yes, Bosman, between your tip and that trick with the Find box, Danny voters are getting there as far as power-voting tricks
Haven’t figured out much with GAC though. My other home computer gave me the same message that I voted as I get on my laptop, even though it has a different ip. Maybe just the cable modem ip is visible externally. Even after I tried your trick to err, clear my modem, it still had the same ip.
I do have an account at my real estate office, maybe I can vote on one or more their machines next time I stop in. But it wouldn’t be every day. Not sure I could vote with my phone, something else to try.
Twitter: steph6449
*in honor of his son.
Steph, I can vote on GAC as many times as I want because when I disconnect and reconnect from the internet my provider gives me dynamic (new) IP address, but I do not do that. It was a hard temptation. But I know that would ruin everything Danny stands for. I do not want to sully his purity and innocence with my egoistic voting. So on GAC I just vote from home and from the office, so 2 votes per day. Well… maybe 3. :lowers his head in shame:
CMT on the other hand allows us as many votes as possible, so we are actually in a way encouraged to be as clever about it as possible.
Rachel, just in case I’m not online tomorrow, let me wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY right now! Hope you get a HB DM from Danny
Thanks to for the link to the pics from the Gettysburg station, I’d have been there if we weren’t here in FL. That gal really liked getting pics of Danny’s butt, and one real close-up of his crotch!
When I saw that, I burst out laughing and almost spewed a mouthful of coffee all over the keyboard 
Julie, so nice to see you on iheart today! I hope things are going well for you now!
Hey Shirl! Thanks – it’s good to be back!!
I am jealous I can’t see those facebook photo’s and now you have made me even more so 
Things are calming down a bit Shirl – so I am taking ‘time out’ as they say!
Rachel – I hope you are celebrating your special day tomorrow? Expect you will be having a few drinks??!!!!!
I am voting for Danny on the daily count and the CMT site – feel helpless I can’t request his song for all you guys!!
I said to Pam in an email and on here- I REALLY will have to move to the USA
Well I am off to have a shower and maybe an early night if I’m lucky
it’s 8.15pm here.
Have a great day all – be good!!
Twitter: steph6449
bosman, lol. I hadn’t decided whether I *would* do that for GAC if I found that I *could* do it. Since I can’t, did not have to find whether I could or could not resist temptation
After seeing that one artist I’d never heard of be voted into the top 15 on that GAC top 20 countdown, I have to think someone’s fans aren’t all that picky
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Hi Shirl I hope you are enjoying your time in Florida!!!!
I can’t see the pics that Rach linked but definately want to check them out since obviously there are some honey bun shots! I also look forward to seeing the picture of Danny holding the baby.

OMG I was just looking at the pictures of Danny on the airplane from the other day. He looks so hot. I love how he took pics with the pilot and flight attendant. Would I ever love to be that attendant, flying around the country with Danny!

Good Afternoon Gokeycyberland! Lots of Danny news today wow!!!
love the cute pics Rach! LOL!
Sorry Cheryl, where did you see those pics?
Btw, I just finished at home my big task for tomorrow at work, so I will be able to vote away the day. I am so devious! Of course, provided that no major drama happenz….

This was a picture from a while back and I thought it was strange – Iwondered what Danny was doing. The man in the picture DM’d me and told me hewas teasing Danny about coming in third on AI and Danny jokingly hung his head in shame! So cute!

Hi GokeyGuy! I was thinking something funny was going on with Danny in that picture! That’s why I asked the News guy what he was doing!!! LOL Maybe I should have left it to my imagination!
Cheryl, Danny in shame and that lady’s smile looking at him – hilarious.
I had a good laugh. How can someone not love Danny when he is always ready to make people feel better, he even laughs at his own expense.
Not many “celebrities” are so down to Earth as Danny.
Hehe I just remembered the cake fight with Allison and Danny’s face when Ryan brought him the bill. Agh, those were the good AI days!
Twitter: jancute
Cheryl – LOL! dont worry, very good observation though haha… Danny is such a child at heart, very adorable…
Hey Bosman, love the cakefight, even though its staged, but hey, cakefight on national tv is such a classact I should say! haha very funny that night, and when Ryan deliver the bill from Danny, Danny said “ME?!” haha? very innocent answer haha.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Love the cake fight. Danny has such a joyful spirit and he is so playful. I love that about him. He is a kid at heart!
Although Billboard’s top country songs chart won’t be out until Thursday – there is quite a bit of discussion on music pulse proboard and are quite a few songs close to breaking the top 40 with Tim McGraw’s new song Still, Martina McBride’s new song Wrong Baby Wrong, Reba’s new song and Craig Morgan’s new song. All these established artists will move up the chart much faster than a new artist like Danny. Does seem the consensus that Danny’s My Best Days will make the top 40 on Thursday’s chart. This poster has it at #39 for Billboard’s next issue date of February 20th.

Hi all,
first time posting on here for me, I know quite a few of you from twitter! I just wanted to stop by and say thanks for all support we have had in the campaign to get Danny played on radio in the UK. We have 4 stations playing him now and 3 of them have requested interviews. Their details have been passed on and we are awaiting news so fingers crossed – it will be fantastic if Sony allow him to do it. As Carole mentioned earlier, we are about to start campaigning on a bigger scale across Europe so will keep you posted. Danny has the best fans worldwide!!
Twitter: pjgvet
Aargh, Carrie Underwood is coming to Summerfest; what about Danny!!
This tour info is stressing me out, trying to arrange my work schedule!!
Did he only get the 3 adds today? Is that global one a good one?
And about the cake fight,
That’s why –
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain’t always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty haha
(I am glad he remained true to himself on his debut album and the producers allowed him to be himself)
On the other end of the spectrum, Danny can be so classy. I mean, can I say CRoCS! Now with his new look he is a debonair gentleman, yet a little rascal nonetheless.
Can this February be over so we get that album already????
In my native tongue – Bosnian – we have a saying when somebody can’t hardly wait, we, in literal translation, say – “I am waiting for it, I am like a cold sun” – feverish about it.
Hey! Back again. Got out of class early due to technical difficulties w/the projector showing the slides during the lecture. Oh well…lol
I meant to post earlier about Danny officially making the top 40 at #38!!! That’s awesome!!! So proud of him. He deserves it so much
I read that article that steph posted earlier about Danny doing a cd release concert in Milwaukee next month. Yeah, it was pretty snarky but at least they promoting it. Hard to believe that there are “stuck-on-stupid” haters in his hometown even, but Danny’s doing his thing and whether they like it or not, his “Milgokey” fans love him!!! So they’ll get over it, I’m sure 
Don’t really have too much to say about that b/c the stupid haters are boring now. They really are.
Pam, wow, I hate to “see” you so stressed. Try to relax. Everything will work out in the end. At least you’ll get to hear him live soon.
I can only dream about it. 
I know that we would bring down the sky for the people to see his artistry, but 3 adds is good – at least he is not losing any.
Twitter: pjgvet
I don’t think the Milwaukee snarky people are really haters; my theory is that Milwaukee has a little complex
We will never measure up to Chicago, New York, other big cities so the press sometimes just has to be snarky about anything “not cool”.
The Bo Deans and Violent Femmes were from Milwaukee and are “edgy”, “cool”. But ah, not Danny; so the oh so elite media has to be snarky to keep their “cool ” appearance.
Just my theory.
Cheryl, if you’re still on here, I have never heard of Burgettstown, PA….no idea where that is. Sugarland is coming to State College, PA, which is about 4 hours away. But nothing has been posted as to whether Danny will be with them there or not, and there isn’t even a date. I have been unable to find out anything about it.
Pam- good theory
Still, even snarky people annoy me. Most of the time 
Are you gonna go to the cd release concert on the 6th?
Btw, I finally got a chance to hear “Get Away” and “Life On Ya”. Both are good songs so far. Could barely hear “Get Away” from the video that I saw, but I got full intensity of the song completely. Great uptempo beat to it. If I had to choose a favorite, it would be “Life On Ya”. I got a good feeling and vibe from it. Have to listen to it a few more times to let it catch onto me so that’ll sink into my head, but I like it
I’m so ready to get this cd already!!! Need something new to put on both my mp3 and ipod shuffle, since now I know how to put songs on there…lol
Twitter: pjgvet
Lol Bosman!
The worry never stops. Here he made the top 40 and I am already worrying about him staying there
I wish I did not care so much! Just seems so odd some of these stations don’t add him; but maybe it is all in the karma “plan” so that he doesn’t bump too high one week and have trouble staying there.
I will take your advice and relax
Awww, Pam…don’t stress out over Summerfest, that could still happen
Hopefully you will get to go to the March 6 event in Milwaukee, so you’ll get to see Danny then 
Okey Gokey, peeps…I’m outta here for the right now but will try to visit again later tonight! Take care
Looks like Burgettstown, PA is a small town (a little over 1500) just west of Pittsburgh. So Burgettstown = Pittsburgh.
Danielle, I’m with you. I neither “get” nor do I like snark.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Pam I agree with your assessment about the media in Milwaukee. They may have a bit of a complex about being seen as less cosmopolitan than Chicago, NY, LA etc.. so they overcompensate by being critical about all things that might be seen as being midwest, small town and folksy. They apparently think Danny is not cospmopolitan enough for them. Truth is Danny is very supportive of the City of Milwaukee and has gone out of his way to promote it.
Danni, I think that haters were always boring. It is just a reflection of their boring lives and impotence to change things.
So in envy and jealousy they live, hoping and praying that Danny will become an “epic fail.” But they do not know that Danny will fail only if Danny wants to fail.
Helio the other day made one of the best analysis of Danny, when she said that he loves himself in that he is mentally strong and has achieved a high level of self-actualization.
What Helio said prompted me to remember the idolatry interview. When the host – Slezak or whatever his sarcasm highness is named – told Danny that producer Howard Benson said that Danny will never make a record, Danny replied “Since I do believe I’ma be successful, I am gonna take the necessary steps to become successful.”
Eight months later, we can all see that Danny is taking all the necessary steps. Work, work, work. He talked the talk, now he walks the walk. I am yet to see something about Danny that I do not like. All this about him is quite amazing.
Cheryl- Yes, Danny is very supportive of Milwaukee and has done a lot to promote it. Maybe I don’t fully understand the media there b/c whenever I read or watch some type of media from there about Danny, I always see them being very supportive of a hometown favorite, which is why I don’t see any need for other media outlets there to be snarky or whatever b/c they have to depending on what it is. Sorry, that’s just how I see it.
Twitter: .
Yes Ellen Burgettstown is on the only road that connects Ohio/WV/PA as I travel it everyday. While Burgettstown itself is a smal rural town it’s main attractraction is the Star Lake/Pepsi now Niagara ampitheatre with lots of lawn seating. They have been advertising this all day although they don’t mention Danny.
Twitter: jancute
Since Carrie is confirmed that she will be performing at the Summerfest, Is there any Danny performing too??? I think they said they are inviting him there right?
I love Life on Ya, at first, when I saw the title, I said, well I don’t know about that but when he sang it, the tune was cool and upbeat and love the lyrics. I thought it was a rap song haha but its not but very cool though.
So much for my early night!!
I just had to tell you all – Danny’s video for MBD is now available on UK ITUNES to buy!!
So I just bought it and played in FULL SCREEN on my Apple Mac Book!!
Woo woo!!
Sorry – just had to share!!
Hi Gokeyguy – I’m with you re ‘Life On Ya’

hey Julie! Yay! thats great news, so everybody on UK can buy Danny’s MBD! I bought mine a week ago and its so beautiful!!! Danny sure knows how to project to the camera YAY!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Danielle I think the publication that wrote that snarky article about Danny is one of those publications that tries it’s hardest to be edgy, so it just doesn’t view Danny as worthy enough for their praise. Here is the comment I wrote on their page (notice a got a bit snarky because I figure you get as good as you give)!

8 Feb. 2010 | 5:09 PM CST
I find it interesting on the same day you run an article about the Milwaukee Music Awards you choose to write a snarky article about Danny Gokey, the one Milwaukee musician who will surely bring national recognition to the City of Milwaukee. He may be the best thing Milwaukee has going for it, considering you have built a monument to Fonzie who’s only claim to fame is that he PLAYED a character who was from Milwaukee. Danny is the real deal. NONE of the other artists on your list of artists up for the Milwaukee Musicians Award have national recognition, nor, I suspect, will they ever reach the level of fame that Danny Gokey already has. Danny Gokey’s future is very bright indeed.
I realize that you believe you need to play with the “cool” kids from Chicago (my hometown), New York, and LA, somehow believing that if you sound cosmopolitan enough you will “be like them”. To that end, you find it necessary to praise only those homegrown musicians who have some perceived edginess to them and dismiss those who have a midwestern, folksy bent to their artistry.
Let me suggest it’s okay to be who you are: a hip publication in a mid-size city writing about the great talent your city has to offer. No doubt many of those on the award list AND Danny Gokey, whose star is rising and is well on his way to becoming a major country artist, are all worthy of your attention and praise
Twitter: jancute
Danny said he will be guesting on AI this season… Im really having a hard time to choose from MBD or IWNSG for him to perform… Its so hard cuz I really really really love those songs… uggh!!
Julie “life on Ya” is really a cool song. I remember Danny saying his CD has many songs that make your head like yeah!(bangging) haha…
I remember reading a post from Toni who said that Danny did a shout out to IHRT but the quality was so bad, it couldn’t be seen. So she posted what Danny said and I think he mentioned about the issues with international fans trying to buy his music were being ‘looked into’. Well the man from Milwaukee came through!!!
I am just so pleased I was able to buy his video and yes Gokeyguy, Danny does know how to project to the camera!!
I am going to bed now – for real! It’s now 11.20pm and I have work in the morning!
Nice to speak with you Gokeyguy – been a while! Take care and until next time –

Cheryl- good comment to that article. Honestly, I don’t think too many people, who are fans of Danny, will pay attention to that anyway(the article, that is). But if they feel they way that they do about him, then why even try to promote his show and his single on their site or whatever. I get that critics/reviewers aren’t gonna like everything that he does and they have a right to their opinions of that. I just don’t think that it helps in anyway for that certain publication to be snarky b/c it’s the “cool” thing to do b/c Danny isn’t up on their level of “edginess”.
Regardless, Danny’s going to be very well received at home by the people and fans that love him so that’s all that matters to me

New Cindy I will be very disappointed if Danny does not play at Summerfest. It may be that he will be on tour at the time with Sugarland, but fingers crossed that Danny will be available and asked to perform.
Twitter: jancute
Steph – satellite tours huh? hmm maybe alot of Dannyvideos for tomorrow like the clorox thing. YAY!
night Julie! nice chatting with you! <3
Hey New Cindy! nice to see you here again! hey, Danny and Carrie at the same place? In Milgokey?! wow! thats really a treat! YAY! I mean, of course the organizers wants to pack the summerfest grounds again right? well bring Mr. Danny Gokey out again YAY! what is that again? like 26 thousand?? well thats a very awesome audience turnout for a fairly amount of space I suppose YAY! <3
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Danielle You are right. As long as there are thousands of fans that love Danny and appreciate his talent, it does not matter what that publication says. Like you said, most people have probably not even read it and for those who have it still translates as promotion for the show!!!
Now you can see why I don’t go on the hater sites. I used to get very riled up, like i did after I read that article, and I would feel the need to respond to every criticism. I finally realized, as you clearly have, that not everyone is going to agree. Some people just find it pleasant to write the nastiest of things and there is no way I, or anyone else is going to change their minds. So, I do stay away from them.
Notice how I was compelled to respond to that article? I would probably been better off not even reading it. Out of site out of mind, or something like that!
Okay, I’m get going. I’ll be back on later. Deuces <3
Twitter: jancute
Danni, Cheryl – Don’t mind those critics, they are so critical to Danny anyways and Danny just pass them by but still analyzing whether that article is a good constructive one or just one of the nonsense critism again.Even though it came from Milgokey town, its just a small tiny number… No worries ok?
Gokeyguy- I’m not worried, boo
Critics don’t bother me. Only the ones that don’t what they’re talking about 
lol
Be back later
Twitter: karatemom34
I hope so Cheryl!! I’m sure if it’s at all possible for him he would want to do it!!
Catching up on all the news, great to hear all that is happening with Danny. Interesting tho, I just figured when he went to visit all these stations they would start playing his song right away. Guess I do not understand….I agree with the one comment I am so glad to have had the opportunity to seen him in one of these close up visits. I do not think later we will ever get the chance to do that again. Really loved meeting him up close along with the band……
That is why I send out a shout to Jan, I am so glad you went to see Danny and thanks for sharing your time and thoughts when you were with Danny. Bet you are still flying high. Who was that who tried to get a close up the back side of Danny or was I imaging things lol you girls….
Think the venue in Milwaukee is a good idea, it will sure to be packed, that would be a very good thing. Cannot think of a more perfect place to celebrate his first album coming out but in Milwaukee where the most people EVER to come out for an AI in that shows history was in Milwaukee. Great job Milwaukee now do it again for Danny J. and make Danny repeat his words “this is unbelievable” ……..
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Steph Do you think that promotion of the Clorox flu campaign was considered a Satellite Tour? Did Danny do something similar today, only perhaps for radio audiences to promote his CD? Or maybe even for TV audiences in markets across the country? At first I thought a Satellite tour meant it was being done on Satellite Radio like Sirius Radio and that it would be broadcast on their stations to those who subscribe. But, now I guess it might be more like what he did with Clorox.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Hi Sharon I agree with you on the venue in Milwaukee. I think it is perfect because you want it to be packed and if it was too large and not sold out, the story would be that he didn’t fill a room. This way the report will be that the room was filled to capacity and people were turned away. It’s much better if it is perceived that way!
Twitter: steph6449
Cheryl, no expert but that ran through my mind also. That today/tomorrow could be something like what we saw when Danny did the thing in NYC with remote hookups for the Clorox campaign. Just funny not to see some reports of what the interviews today were, assuming they ran live someplace.
As far as Danny on tour, just casually reading about other country artists when visiting sites for Danny tidbits, a lot of them do still visit smaller clubs on a fairly regular basis in addition to doing larger tours. If Danny is rotating in and out of the Sugarland tour, and that tour could be paced somewhat gently to allow for Jennifer Nettles to not overtax her voice — would not amaze me if he fits in some other dates along the way.
Both small ones. And larger, if he can go to Summerfest, the CMA Fest in June and any others. The ACM Awards show is sometime in April, it would be fabulous for Danny if he could be involved somehow with that. Maybe as a presenter, since his album will just be out and he’s one of the new members.
Twitter: steph6449
Eek, more snow coming… last I saw it was supposed to be minor here tomorrow, now they’re claiming another foot or more possibly
Uh-oh, may need to venture to the grocery store
Hi Cheryl, I am also thinking not to give any opportunities to anyone who might want to say negatives things the crowd issue will not be one of them at least.
steph i hope you are right about other country artists doing smaller clubs gives me hope actually, that would be Danny too. Got this big thought in my head Danny would take off with his career and all the up close stuff he does now would be gone. But, as I think about it Danny would not be that way. sigh….
I forgot to mention I listened to my satillite radio most of the day and I did not hear anything about Danny nor was he on. I would of told ya…figure it has been happening but will air on another day.

This is one example of an established country star doing a club tour — Gretchen Wilson, who we’ve talked about a lot as her current single has been pacing pretty close to Danny’s.

Happy birthday to be, Rachel! Seriously, I don’t worry about birthdays anymore. I’m having so much fun with my adult children, husband, family, girl friends and this Gokey addiction!
Julie, nice to see your long post from earlier today AND Sharon, yes, Toni and I were flying high after being invited to meet Danny after the Nola concert. I’m glad you guys got the “gist” of our excitement from my recap.
Hi Jan (Gokeyguy)–you and Danielle–I really think “Life on Ya” will be a popular song for Danny. But there’s so many good ones. Each new one, I play over and over! Even the folgers commericial!
Cheryl, thanks for re-posting the Danny jet pics. I had missed those. I thought it was sweet that Ivan and Danny were sitting side by side in an empty plane!
Rachel–And the baby picture–it melts my heart whenever I see Danny with a baby. He is so natural with little ones. Somehow it just pulls on my heart strings to see that. Ellen, I agree, you can tell that Danny knows his way around a baby!!
It reminds me of the quick flash of a baby in the future scenes of MBD video. He needs to be a daddy someday. Jan
Twitter: steph6449
lol, some Kris fans freaking out on twitter at a report (unconfirmed) that Kris may tour as a supporting act with the Jonas Brothers.
have to doubt it, but how extremely uncool would that be to swallow for the Kradison crowd.
Hi everyone! – just catching up on everything going on today.
Steph – I just snort-giggled over the Jonas Bro/Kris tour. That would be a tween’s dream.
Rachel – love the Danny + baby picture. He just looks so happy that way
And Happy Birthday to you (*singing*)
Jan – thanks to you and Toni for the great recap of your NY Danny adventure the other day. We all wish we could have been there with you.
Congrats to Danny on the charts and adds news today. This is getting hard to keep up with, and will only get worse, I mean way, way better!!
Now, Milwaukee concert. I am trying to keep myself together. I share Pam’s concern that the venue may be too small. But, keep telling myself everything will work out the way it is supposed to. Just can’t believe I may FINALLY (sorry, didn’t mean to shout) get to hear that gorgeous voice in person. I wish you could all come, too
I think that Jordin did some shows with the Jonas Brothers. I don’t really think that Kris touring with the Jonas Brothers would be a good fit, even though it would probably make a lot of the tween fans happy.
Twitter: steph6449
The Jonas Bros probably sell a ton of tickets, Kris could do worse I suppose from a business standpoint. I just think it would be funny as his fans are so insistent he’s a true “artiste” vs. the Disney type artists who are supposedly all shallow & commercial. Not to mention what the Adam fans in the kradam community would have to say about it.
Probably just a twitter rumor, but still makes me laugh.
Twitter: steph6449
Plus could you imagine the non-teenie Kradison fans venturing to a JoBros concert to see Kris? Lol.
They would need a massive infusion of something to counteract the effect on their cool points, not to mention possibly disguises. Lol.
Steph – Counteract the effect on cool points! You’re still making me snort-giggle!!
Cheryl (re your 6:15 p.m. post): I didn’t find your post to that Milwaukee publication to be snarky in the least. Just tellin’ it like you see it. And very well-reasoned. Loved you giving them permission to be who they are! I thought it was very restrained, but pointed. But not snarky!
JulieUK, I know you won’t see this right now — you’ve got to bed. But maybe you’ll lurk and see it at a later date.
Anyway, just wanted to say how happy I am to see you here. Also, am estatic for you that you were able to get Danny’s video! Hope real life is going better for you.
Lol steph.
I actually saw at least a couple of people on Twitter, (probably tweens)act like they were excited about the thought of Kris touring with the Jonas Brothers. I do have to wonder about the older ones who constantly talk about how great of an artist Kris is, would think about that, if it were true. I don’t think that they would be too happy about him opening for the Jonas Brothers.
ok, I’m working on a little investigating. Josh Thompson is another new artist who just happens to be from the Milwaukee area also (Cedarburg, I think). His single is Beer on the Table. I just looked and FM106 (WMIL) added the song back in July when it first went for adds. The song has been getting pretty steady adds since then and is now #17 on the chart. So that’s about 6 months or so to climb the charts.
His album drops in two weeks and there will be a cd release party here at a 500 seat venue. It works the same as Danny, buy the cd at the door and get in, autographs after the show. Do you suppose Danny’s label is thinking an extra 500 capacity will be enough for Danny (over Josh)?
Danip, so does that mean you are from the greater Pittsburgh area? And are you looking at the Burgettstown concert as the most convenient one to attend, if you are planning to go?
Twitter: steph6449
Sugarland however gives Danny & his fans a definite boost in cool points
Steph, not more snow!
Definitely get to the grocery store while you can!
Twitter: steph6449
Ellen, looks like it. According to tv weather guys, it will visit Cheryl and Rachel first, and then be heading my way.
Will try to pick up a few things in the morning. Not too bad if I can’t but I’m running out of dog food. Of course she might like that if I don’t get any, as I’d probably have to make her some rice & chicken to eat, lol.
Weather predictions aren’t always accurate. I hope that in your case, Steph, they are way overestimating any additional snow.
Twitter: steph6449
from girlygirl at mj’s. guess I wasn’t underestimating the consternation, ha.
” Okay, my reaction to the following rumor (and it is just a rumor), is this: F*** no!
JonasDomination
#A rumored tour openers include : Joey Page, Steve Rushton, Kris Allen, and 78violet ( Aly and AJ ) . about 2 hours ago from web
Why in god’s name would Kris tour with the JoBros? How many of Kris’s fans over the age of 18 would go anywhere NEAR a JoBros concert??? BAD IDEA BAD BAD BAD “
Twitter: steph6449
aww
@dannygokey heard your song on county radio in LA right now! Almost crashed cuz I was screaming my head off! So happy for you!
I am feeling so much better with Sugarland.
Steph – are you running out of places to put the snow? The banks must be getting awfully high…
Twitter: tonicny
Hi! I have been working on uploading all the videos I have of the concert at Nola’s just waiting for the upload on YT to be done. The videos have been converted to a smaller size and they are still of good quality. It is probably going to take a couple of hours yet. I also reposted Get Away on YU already which is the original video. I got some help tonight it is amazing once you learn how to do something…
Thank you Toni!! The sound is so much better. Really loving every song on this cd. Had to lol at Danny’s almost wardrobe malfunction. What a save!
Twitter: steph6449
Toni, thank you! I already found the YT of Get Away ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp9TTuBevY8 ) , much clearer audio to make out the lyrics of what it’s about.
But I see that your special close-up shot was not sacrificed — if anything, it is more evident with the smaller video frame
It’s kind of a driving, getting away from things song I guess? I still can’t quite get all the words but from what I can hear, it reminds me a little of the type of song that some other artists sing where they get out of town to get away from things and drink a lotta beer, lol.
Twitter: .
Ellen, no I live in Ohio but work in Pittsburgh, it’s about an hour away. I am definitely thinking about the show as it is only 40 min away, but I will have to go by myself.
Twitter: tonicny
Steph, yes it is more evident maybe I shouldn’t have I am starting to feel weird about might take it off of YT, its not really a very nice thing to do.
Twitter: .
Well I’m off to bed as I have to go back to work tomorrow, they want us an hour early
and we are expected to get another 5-10″ of snow tomorrow..OH JOY!!!
Goodnight everyone..see you tomorrow.
Twitter: steph6449
Toni, lol. I’m not sure a casual viewer would pick up that it was intentional in that part. Esp as the camera goes a little off ‘target’ and pans to the crowd before you come back to Danny from the more conventional viewpoint.
If you were going to do anything, maybe just clip it off before the almost-wardrobe malfunction after the song stops.
.
kradam fan I think, nice that they are helping us with broadcast reports for Danny’s video
DANNY GOKEY ON MY TV
I MUST REPEAT..DANNY GOKEY ON MY TELEVISION
AND I’M STILL WATCHING IT…..
{in reply to an Adam fan} HEHE. I WATCHED HIS VIDEO.
.
tonight is the night of that Idols for Haiti concert in Nashville with some of the less high-profile folks. apparently Anoop is there
Anoop is here! Now where is @dannygokey? Amazing show so far!
6 minutes ago from txt
.
Ellen, yeah, it’s already pretty high already where I shoveled out what I could yesterday and Saturday. Not sure what I’ll do with another foot plus. But in general will just hunker down at home watching the snow as long as no power outages. Thankfully those are very rare where I am. Saw local tv station had a graphic up just now saying 14-20″ coming. Hopefully they are just over-hyping it.
Being stuck at home is good for Danny though. Lots of extra time to vote at CMT.com
thank you,jannikas and milgokey fan
you’re right danny is great with kids i hope he finds someone in his future to have kids with.
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Hi everyone! I haven’t seen this discussed before, but I may have missed it. There’s an online form on GAC to request a video. You can send in a request once a day. I assume if they get lots of requests that they will play his video more often, so I think it’s worth putting it on the to-do list.
http://online.scrippsnetworks.com/gac/gac_video/request.asp
About Kris, if that’s true about the Jonas Brothers, it could be worse. At least he doesn’t have to tour with Justin Bieber!
I love the photo of Danny with the baby, that’s so cute! It will be nice when he has one of his own one day.
what part danip?
were suppose to get 6-7 inches of snow eek
IDOLS FOR HAITI tonight! at 9pm central time .Tv http://www.ustream.tv!
feliciabarton @anoopdesai @rickybraddy @brentkeith @feliciabarton @alexwtrugs all in the same room!!! woo hoo!
to bad danny couldn’t go to that.
Twitter: steph6449
It might be good for the less visible Idols to not have someone who’s signed already on stage?
Wonder if Anoop is singing. Seems like this would have been a good chance for Michael to get some Nashville visibility, a little surprised he didn’t find a way to go.
Rachel, danip — good luck with the snow. Just checked in, and my office has already announced it’s closed tomorrow. Guessing that means we’ll be out on Weds if not Thursday as well since the additional snow is supposed to run from tomorrow late afternoon through the day Weds. It’s been at least ten years since I can remember our offices being completely closed more than one or two days due to snow.
Twitter: jannworth
After updating my apple software for Itunes (is it so slow on everyone’s computer, for goodness sake?) I finally was able to purchase Danny’s video. Its just gorgeous to see on full screen. Lovin’ it….
Toni, I’ll have to go out to Youtube and see how all your hard work paid off! Toni, don’t be self conscience about panning over Danny’s cute butt. Its nothing compared to the ladies that took crotch shots at some of the radio tours!
And once again, I have to say to all that may have missed it, you have to go to the Danny and baby picture that Rachel posted. Its simply precious. Precious, I say! Jan
Twitter: steph6449
that girl is still tweeting, lol
LOL, I WAS WATCHING MUSIC VIDS. AND BAM. GOKEY. AND YESS. WHO DATT!
)) LOVE MY BOYS
…DID I REALLY JUST REWIND MY TV BACK TO DANIEL J GOKESTER?
.
family conflict in a Kris fan’s household
LOL I’m just quoting him. I need to divorce him, he liked Gokey. Also Adam and Anoop but that’s not worth divorce.
I thought you meant good luck finding the station playing new Kenny song but you meant good luck with husband’s Gokeyism
Hey, Steph, I can only imagine the amount of snow you are still getting. I had the TV on the weather channel and they had some film of people shoveling snow off of their roofs. My heart goes out to you.
brent keith is the one who organized it steph,atleast they called it off and you don’t have to drive in it.
Twitter: pjgvet
Good evening everyone!
I am just cracking up at the Jonas Brothers news. I wonder if that is really true or just a rumor that a devilishly evil Adam fan started, lol. OMG, the thought of it just kills me- should we ask Silver at TWOP? ROFLMAO
We are getting 9-15″ snow by the lake here tomorrow. I guess I can’t complain compared to you Eastie peoples pile!
Pretty quiet on the Danny front today; must be saving those “satellite tours” until later.
Am I imagining things or was Windmills actually defending Danny here to someone questioning his sales??
“I just checked and My Best Days is at #171 on the i-Tunes Top 200 Country Songs chart. I don’t know how that compares to where he has been in recent weeks. Matt Kennon is the only guy around where Danny is on the airplay charts who’s doing a lot better on i-Tunes Country (he’s at #61 on i-Tunes Top 200 Country Songs). Making the Mediabase top 40 will help Danny because in a few weeks he’ll get some weekend countdown spins.”
Has hell frozen over with all the snow, lol? Or the Jonas brothers………. Or the Kradisson fan who keeps rewinding Danny’s video………..
Twitter: steph6449
Pam, lol. I saw that with windmills, ha.
That JoBros rumor came from a JoBros-related twitter. I noticed it as someone was tweeting asking mj about it, and she was saying surely not. Not sure if it’s true, but it made my evening reading that. Maybe Adam could tour with Justin B or Miley, just to make our fun complete
Nothing really meant against the JoBros–it just would be a riot to see that pairing given how arrogant many of the Kradison fans have been about Danny because he’s not edgy or cool enough for them. [ Go Sugarland! Who are just full of country cool points. ]
.
I see someone tweeting this again, that VH1 may have played MBD?
@DANNYGOKEY Yep VH1 played it
That could make sense, as I’m not sure that Kris fan would have been watching CMT or GAC. Interesting, as RCA hasn’t pushed Danny at all to AC or HAC stations that we’ve heard.
danny has been dming people pam lol he dmed jenny and michelle he joined they’re chat on meebo lol
Twitter: steph6449
If any of you have a minute, there are people posting ugly comments at the ‘official’ (which may or may not be) copy of MBD video on YT. Might not hurt to push them down.
Twitter: pjgvet
MIT said you can nominate videos to VH1 and that she did! I wonder if that is the fruit of her labor?
“I Want To See Danny Gokey On VH1′s Top 20 Countdown Next (I Hope) Lady Antebellum & Taylor Swift Are Already A Few Country/Pop Artists There, Right Now & Carrie Underwood Is Expected To Make A Debut Impact Next, Soon !!! Kris Allen, Adam Lambert & Daughtry Are On There Right Now, Let’s Vote For Danny On VH1 Top 20 Countdown Too !!! You Can Submit Danny If He Isn’t Listed Too BTW !!! ENTER Him As A “WILDCARD” Selection & SUBMIT !!! You Can Only ENTER 1 “WILDCARD” Selection !!! The MORE Fans ENTER Danny As A “WILDCARD” Selection, The BETTER His Chances Of ADVANCING Into The VH1 Top 20 Countdown SOONER !!! I’m Heading Over There Now !!!
”
Twitter: pjgvet
Do you think that is really him Rachel? I know he DM people; but I find it hard to believe he would join a chat. It could easily be an imposter (I have chatted with those two myself at Meebo before!)
danny dmed them and asked what they’re names were on meebo pam i have no idea.
Twitter: steph6449
Interesting. I guess we’d really be tormenting the Kradam fans if we got Danny on the VH1 countdown, ha.
Pam, oh for sure — soooo tempting to go into the Kris forum at TWOP and ask Silver about that tour rumor. If only we weren’t such nice Danny fans…
.
Reading posts at mj’s, pretty sure windmills must be female. Was getting pretty detailed in the analysis of Carrie’s outfit from yesterday, lol. And that would match up with how gaga she seemed to be about Chris Young last month.
Twitter: pjgvet
I hope he isn’t really doing that Rach. I think that can cause hard feelings amongst fans. The skeptic in me just finds it hard to believe he would even have time right now.
Someone did send a false DM from Danny once; you can fake the page I guess- I don’t know how.
And if he should be chatting anywhere, lol , it should be iheart!
Twitter: pjgvet
I guess you are right, Steph; I had always thought Windmills was male- although maybe they have a crush on Carrie and thus the outfit discussion? Or gay…..
Oh, please, do it- go into the Kris forum and pose that question, lol!!!!!
Twitter: steph6449
Who here has a TWOP account they never ever want to use again, lol.
Pam, well, that’s another theory that occurred to me
But female seems more likely.

true pam he should lol i just saw jenny and michelle ask him if he wanted to chat with the gokey scouts because katied hasn’t been on twitter in awhile and that’s why i saw them saw danny made them happy lol and then i saw them tell him they’re meebo names he could of just said hi and left but who knows.
jeebus alot of typos i meant say not saw lol
i have chatted with a fake danny got my hopes down lol
but i don’t think he chatted with them he just asked for they’re names then again who knows lol.
Twitter: pjgvet
Yeah, Rach, remember the Dream Center chat when everyone thought it was Michael? LOl
lol yes i do pam that’s where i talked to the fake danny when he said he met ‘katy wilson’ and she gave him nice presents and was a nice girl i knew it wasn’t him.
people got michael’s son’s birthday and his mixed up lol i have the same birthday as his son’s
it’s officially my birthday i am no longer 29 yikes lol

happy birthday Rachel
What I’ve seen matches MIT for the most part, but a couple of exceptions. Most of these can be found at the megaticket.com site or Sugarland’s FB, except the one we heard about today near Pittsburgh (came from a radio station or other local area promo?)
from Sugarland FB
May 6 Idaho with Julianne
May 7 Utah with Julianne
May 8 Colorado Springs with Julianne
May 14 Pittsburgh area with Jake
May 15 Philadelphia/Camden with Jake (not Danny solo)
May 23 Hartford CT with Jake (not Danny solo)
[ June 10-13 CMA Festival in Nashville would be here if any of these acts go ]
June 13 Rochester NY area with Luke
June 16 – haven’t seen it yet
June 17 Sioux Falls SD with Luke
June 23 – haven’t seen it yet
The megaticket.com site is starting to announce more dates and artists. Don’t see any extra Danny news. Luke will be with Sugarland on June 5th, could be Danny is part of that and it’s just not included yet.
Sugarland’s tour starts April 23rd. That’s probably just after the week that has the ACM Awards and Brooks & Dunn thing in Las Vegas? Would be lovely if Danny could join in somehow with either of those.
thank you steph
Twitter: pjgvet
I remember Def? saying they started touring in April so……..
So those are not solo dates then; I thought that would be a little odd. But intriguing.
Anxious for the official announcement and dates to come out! He said ‘soon’, but we all remember what ‘soon’ means for Danny after all the signing news/lack of!
Happy Birthday Rachel!
Thanks again to Toni for a better quality Get away video. That one reminded me of Lee Ryan – Turn Your Car Around. I have no idea why:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqW2NnQPq80
Danny could make a great video with Get Away. Some country flair in it. And those falsettos?!?! Ahaam!!!
Have a terrible headache and getting ready for work. Done most of the work last night here at home, so it is CMT vote away Tuesday on my plate.
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Happy Birthday Rachel!
Pam, I am so happy for you and the others who will get to see Danny in Milwaukee right after his album launches. That will be a special performance!
bosman, you are amazing with the CMT votes! I think you could probably vote Danny to #1 all by yourself with the way you’re going! But don’t worry, we will help.
thank you bosman,thank you josie
Twitter: steph6449
Josie, lol. I thought you were going to say the other 9 or 19 of us online Danny fans could take the week off since bosman has been on the case
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
steph, that’s funny! When we were joking about that on mjs the other day, I almost said that I have the warehouse rented to put all the CDs of Danny’s that I’m going to buy, and that I am doing bicep curls to build up my muscles so that I can carry them all to the checkout counter. But I thought that might be pushing it.
