SCROLL DOWN FOR THE LATEST NEWS! THIS IS A STICKY POST!

Good Morning!
One year ago, we saw Danny go back to Milwaukee on his American Idol hometown visit. This day will be forever known to us as Danny Gokey Day!
Don’t forget to vote for ‘My Best Days Are Ahead Of Me’ video on the right side links and for Danny on Country Weekly’s favorite male artist!
And keep requesting Danny to your radio station!



























Morning sleepyheads!
Thanks so much for the Idaho video Erika. Too darn funny when that duuuuude at the end of the video yells… Go—key! Sounds like he likes Danny. Especially, the way he follows it up with a discussion about what song is next. Love it.
Many thanks to Jan & Toni too. Great video guys! Sounds like you ran into some trouble with the guards. No recordings allowed. Booo! You two rock! Can’t wait to read those recaps.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Morning ladies~~ Glad you love that radio show!
Sorry I went to bed after that long post & didn’t read your replies…
LOL! Vickie, I would definitely give them lots of informations if I knew they were going to have that show!
Pam, I’m not sure when the album will be available in China, I don’t even know if it will be available in China… since we haven’t imported any of Carrie’s album…
Hey there Lulu!
That is too bad. Do you want me to send it to you?
Looks like the CMT 12 Pack voting is still down.
Twitter: .
Danny is still in the positive spin column up 34 on the rolling chart @ 1479 and #23.
Great news Danip!
Twitter: LuluGokey
Thank you Maryann! but I already have, let me count… 4 copies of Danny CD!
Good to know Danny’s spins is still increasing! Hope he can at least keep that for 2 more days.
Morning ihearties
Great recap Jan
. Thanks jan and Toni for the great videos. It’s kind of a bummer Danny only does 5 songs, but I’m sure that’s standard for an opening act. Danny is up spins again. Yay! Danny should hopefully have some good sales for the week. Nice that Danny is trying to help the flood victims in Tennessee. Have a good day everyone 
Gotcha Lulu! I was like oh no! Lulu needs to have the actual CD to enjoy.
Given that Danny isn’t doing a very long set, I think I am going to pass on the wicked scalpers. Not sure I can justify spending oodles of money to see him perform for twenty minutes.
It is a start though. He is going to get a lot of exposure from these concerts.
Can’t wait to hear what those two have been up too.
Twitter: kiady
Good morning all!
and for the million time i love seeing him wearing those plaid shirts, he looks really good wearing them!
Watched the videos at the wildhorse – loved his outfit, he looked SO gorgeous and sexy!! gah! – and at Utah – he really looks much younger and sweet when he shaves but i prefer the unshaved look
Have a Happy Danny Gokey Day everyone
Good morning iheaties,
Just went back and read last night’s thread. Thanks Jan for asking our questions. Was especially happy to hear that Danny was selling his CD at the concert and that there were lots of people in line for the signing holding his CD. (YAY more sales). I was also curious about the set list since I will be going to the concert next Sunday in MD. My least favorite song on the album is Be Somebody so wasn’t too thrilled he is singing that one as opposed to Crazy Not To or I Still believe but MBDAAOM and IWNSGB are my two favorites and I so loooooove his version of What Hurts the Most and also like Life on YA (which is a little more country than the others) I can’t stand listening to Rascal Flatts sing it anymore because Danny’s version is so much better. I wouldn’t be surprised if he tweeks his set based on where he is playing and the type of crowd. He said in an interview that he changes based on the crowd so that could happen. I know I am getting picky but Danny should wear a black t-shirt instead of the plaid shirt. He looks so good in black – I guess he didn’t get our memo telling him to wear black from now on lol. Anyway, sounds like he had a good show and made a good impression which is what it is all about – new fans hopefullly.
Glad to see MBDAAOM up in spins this morning on mediabase – keeping fingers crossed he is up in spins and audience by Sunday night.
Twitter: steph6449
I was surprised he has Be Somebody in his set also, would have guessed Get Away or maybe I Still Believe. Sounds like it was very successful, and with three or more dates a week on a regular basis that’s hopefully 20,000 or so extra peeps who can see Danny live and perhaps be impressed to buy his CD, listen to him on radio, or see other concerts.

We fans are here to support you! You’re an amazing and talented person with a great heart!
@dannygokey – And, thank you so much for staying after the show to sign autographs and taking pictures with us fans. We appreciate it!
@dannygokey – It was an honor meeting you.
aww to this one, who took her 7-yr-old daughter with her last night
Michaela told me it was the best Mommy/Daughter date yet.
{to question about seeing Danny perform?} we did
Awwww – thanks for sharing the great tweets Steph!
Have to go back and find the girl’s recap.
I am with Lizzy. Hate to say it, but Danny needs to market the goods. Nothing wrong with a nice tucked in fitted t-shirt and jeans to show off the assets
. My oh my, tsk. tsk. tsk.
I’m a little perplexed about that set list too. I think he should bring on the CNT and Get Away. I love those songs.
Not meaning to be a complainer. Hey! What’s the deal with the fella banging on that box?
Twitter: jannworth
I’m going to paste my mini recap from last night –since it was posted so late. We are awaiting our flight to Denver—yeah free internet!
So here’s a quick recap of the Salt Lake City Danny performance:
Danny sounded GREAT–his voice is in fine shape. The stage was small (it had Juianne’s weird set already —-a place for her to change behind curtains and some stairs and a bar overhead.–) but he worked it great.
The songs: Started with Life on Ya, next What Hurts the Most, Be Somebody, IWNSGB and finished MBDAAM—the crowd seemed to love his single the best. He had great applause. Being an opener is not the same as the star—people coming in, no fancy set, short number of songs. BUT Danny did a great job.
The ladies that I was sitting with (Toni and I both had aisle seats, two rows apart.) Thought he did great, in fact they asked me some questions about Danny during the intermission. Neither had seen him perform live. Sugarland’s performance and stage set was awesome. Jennifer Nettles is an amazing performer.
Danny was the only performer that asked for text donations for Nashville flood relief.
Toni did take a couple of videos and some great photos. I have a few photos of Danny.
Meet and Greet: Toni and I each received a Danny hug, a picture with Danny (that the Drummer took for us) and I got picture signed.
Next up: the items for sale and whatever else I think of.
Great Videos! Hey, I love “Somebody” one of my favorites. Anyway, he looks wonderful and sounds terrific! He is on his way to great things!!!!
Twitter: jannworth
And part 2:
Danny items for sale at the concert:
1. Two white shirts: black and white version of the armchair picture (oh, yeah…) and a cool ladies v-neck with the words Danny Gokey and chains hanging form the neckline.
2. His CD!! with a picture for autographing.
Post concert signing. Good long line, lots of people holding the picture and CD for signing. (Yeah! CD sales!) When we looked at his merchandise at the intermission on the second floor, they had sold out of the CDs. But they were replenished by show end.
The band: Greg was playing guitar, Mike (the drummer?) will not have a full drum set, but he still did great —he’s a really nice guy, steel guitar, Brandon, and I think another guy.
Danny seemed like he was having a good time. It must be an amazing experience for him. I just can’t get over how “rich” his voice sounded. Supposedly Julianne is suffering from a cold or strain (I overheard her meet and greet info—they said she wouldn’t be talking much.
We met some really nice people in SLC (and one that we kinda wish we would have passed on….but I won’t focus on that!)
We’ll try to draft a full recap, but we’re are sleep deprived (as usual) and on our way to Colorado Springs.
Jan
I watched all the videos and he does sound really great. I do like Be Somebody better live but still not one of my favorites. However, he needs to have a set that keeps the crowd going so it seems to work with the songs he chose. I figure he put in What Hurts the Most for a familiar song the crowd can sing along with. Life On Ya, Be Somebody and MBDAAOM are more uptempo and then the two ballads in What Hurts the Most and I Will Not Say Goodbye. I would just substitute Get Away for Be Somebody but maybe he has been getting a better crowd reaction with Be Somebody than Get Away in concerts so far, who knows why they choose the songs they choose.
I hope I get the outfit from the pre-concert for the ACM awards – hint hint Danny if you are reading this that would be at Merriweather in MD.
Thanks again Jan for the recap and looking forward to a more detailed report later. I use to live in Colorado Springs – it is a beautiful city with a great view of Pikes Peak. Is the concert in Colorado Springs – I just figured it would be in Denver when I heard Colorado. Anyway, have a great time.

Happy Danny Gokey Day!
Maryann,Lulu does have more than one copies of Danny’s CDs,and I think she also downed copies from iTunes.
Have seen the pictures from tour with sugarland.So Danny got his beard shaved?en looks kind of different.
Twitter: mrbingfordannyg
jannikas,nice little recap.I am sure you must have a great time as usual in Danny’s concerts.So glad Danny sells many CDs.
Twitter: steph6449
Lizzy, tonight is Colorado Springs (World Arena)
Only thing I can think of with Be Somebody vs. Get Away is Be Somebody is a shorter song if they gave Danny a tight time limit. Be Somebody does work pretty well in concert, one time I remember especially that a lot of the men in the audience were really getting into it.
Please All Danny fans Vote on GAC, CMT PURE 12 PACK & TOP 20– purchase Danny’s CD & Single today –Donate to SHF 4 the Community fundraiser! even if you are not able to attend the fundraiser, make a generous donation if you can for a great cause!!

Also Danny fans, Please request Danny’s song at your local radio station!! Have a great Day!!

They updated the mediabase chart again, Danny’s still gaining.
He’s almost at 1500 spins which is the highest I remember, and back over 4200 points
23 26 23 DANNY GOKEY My Best Days Are Ahe… 19/RCA 1496 1444 52 4225
And good for Danny to be pointing up again, 5 or 6 artists above him are currently in the negative for spins and/or points, including some I don’t remember seeing with a drop before: Martina, Tim McGraw, Lady A (all had some or continuous down days recently), Joe Nichols (still #1 but with a downpoint point total), Kenny Chesney, and Eric Church.
LBB is still down, too
Below is a review – Deseret News – from the last night’s concert I believe.
http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700030675/Sugarland-cranks-out-sweet-tunes-at-the-E-Center.html
The parade of TV reality star openers started with former American Idol finalist Danny Gokey. Gokey’s soulful voice soared on his own original songs during his 20 minute set. Songs like “Be Somebody,” “I Will Not Say Goodbye” written in honor of his wife who passed away just a few weeks before his Idol audition, and his single “My Best Days Are Ahead of Me” were technically sound and more soulful than his dull cover of Rascal Flatt’s “What Hurts The Most.”
They were not that complimentary of Julianne Hough and very complimentary of Sugarland. Guess they didn’t like What Hurts the Most.
Oops – sorry Owlki – just noticed you posted the above review. I checked this morning but not just now before I posted.
Twitter: steph6449
Lizzy, thanks. That was me just putting that up on the main page after seeing your post
Overall I thought it was very favorable for Danny even if they weren’t jumping out of their seats for WHTM.
.
Also here is our send-Erika-to-see-Danny link — we’re probably about 80% there on the gift fund, thanks again to all
Could still use a little help from those who may be considering participating–as always, any amounts large or small are greatly appreciated.
YAY Steph on the updated mediabase chart.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Steph, that’s not the highest spins he’s got, he once had 1497 spins last week. But he does has the highest audience impression so far. I just made a picture showing his spins from the beginning of this year until now, we can see clearly that it fluctuates quite a lot these days, so everyone please keep requesting!
http://hi.baidu.com/lulugokey/album/item/35821e1ef8e5b55af724e488.html
Tim has been dropping for 2 weeks to… He’s down 48 spins on last week’s published chart, and 27 spins down the week before. I think Lady A will go recurrent this week, but not sure what will happen to Tim since he doesn’t have a big drop… Martina has increasing spins on last week’s published chart so I think she could be safe this week.
Twitter: steph6449
I’m not going to guess who will go recurrent this week after I got quite confused the one week I thought for sure some heavy droppers would go recurrent, and then no one did!
Not sure if there is a minimum number of points down they look for, or just any amount could do it. If no one goes recurrent this week, at least there is no one who seems to be in imminent danger of passing Danny yet, and with some luck, perhaps he will accelerate up in points now that he’s moving in that direction. Both of the two songs above him did pick up a bunch of airplay after moving into the low 20s.
Maybe in a month I’ll feel safe to guess again
Twitter: steph6449
Lulu, I love your chart
Danny’s song went up a little to #67 on Itunes country songs and is about the same at #42 (has been fuctuating between high 30′s to low 50′s).
Will be interesting to see if his album sales go up this next week with 3 concerts and QVC. Right now Streetpulse has him -14% but they have not been all that reliable plus don’t know how they would get the concert sales info.
Meant to say his album is about the same.
Steph, I can’t really guess who is or isn’t going to go recurrent either. On Billboard, Danny should move up a spot to #23 even if nobody goes recurrent on mediabase because Zac Brown Band’s Highway 20 Ride stayed on Billboard another week but left mediabase. Danny may stay the same at #23 on mediabase. Tim McGraw’s song is down and has been all week but I think he was up last week so this would be his first week and the song is not at 20 weeks yet, same for Martina. I dont think there will be any movement on the chart this week but at least Danny can claim #23 on the Hot Country Songs on Billboard. I do think Billboard is what they use when they say how well a single charted.
Twitter: steph6449
Some of the countdown radio shows go by mediabase though. It’s just confusing
I thought Tim was starting to fall last week, but the amounts aren’t all that big.
Maryann-
I totally agree with you about Danny needing to show off his assets a little more.
I can’t believe it’s been exactly a year since Danny’s homecoming. I’ll never forget how happy I was for him that day, and his adorable, emotional reaction to seeing how famous he’d become when he stepped outside the Idol bubble for the first time in months. That was just the beginning–he must be used to huge crowds by now–and the crowds just keep getting bigger. Danny’s like wildfire–wait until his next single is out. OMG.
Beautiful day. Off to run errands.
Steph I guess I was talking about when all is said and done for bragging rights on how high his debut single charted. The number from Billboard should be the official number. I also get confused on the number of weeks it takes to go recurrent when you have less than 20 weeks because Billboard’s rules say one week without an increase in spins OR audience for songs over 20 weeks and two weeks without an increase for songs less than 20 weeks but people at music pulse always say 3 weeks for songs 20 weeks or less. The person who updates the Billboard prediction chart still has Danny down as a small loss in audience today so who knows what will happen.
Twitter: steph6449
Lizzy, don’t know how the industry sees it. To me, seems like one of those things where your peak placement at either mediabase and BBD would be accurate to list, as long as you state the context/source.
Hi iheart folks
Thank you, thank you to Jan and Toni for the great pics, vids and concert news from last night! Sounds like Danny did great and his voice was certainly spot on. They may tweak the set list as they see what works and what doesn’t. They may decide to drop a ballad (WHTM, even though he sounds great) in favor of an uptempo song since he only has a 5 song set. We’ll see. Being the opener is a tough job and I hope they decide to really “sell” his original music in his set. Glad to hear lots of cd’s being sold at the venues, too. He is on his way, and this is just the beginning
Spin numbers are looking good for this week. Let’s keep up the requesting.
Latrece, my forgetful self thanks you for the reminders to vote.
Lulu – the nerd in me just loves your chart
All ihearts going to the show tonight – have a blast! Can’t wait to hear all about it!
Twitter: steph6449
about to head off finally for some sight-seeing. just not a morning-person, lol!
was able to get thru the videos from last night (hotel not-so-high-speed internet kept buffering). danny does sound good and seemed very comfortable back in the big arena show format
that is the same person playing steel guitar and other instruments who was with Danny at the Wild Horse and some other dates. does anyone know who he is?
the only name I’ve seen for the steel guitar player was @fiddlindan who tweeted that he played for Danny when they went on AI9. doesn’t seem to be the same person as with Danny now, as he was tweeting yesterday about Easton Corbin. he lists Danny on his twitter bio though, aww
Touring/Session Musician….Fiddle, Mandolin, Guitar, Banjo, Pedal Steel….Gretchen Wilson, John Fogerty, Easton Corbin, Lonestar, Danny Gokey, etc…
and has Danny listed on his myspace as well
http://www.myspace.com/fiddlindan
Steph, glad to see his spins are continuously going up. I’m sure with the exposure this next week, he should get some decent sales. Someone said Julianne Hough had a cold or didn’t feel that well last night. I’m sure her voice was not that strong. I ddin’t realize she was only 21. Hopefully, she will feel better tonight, if she is performing again. I think Danny is really lucky to have such a strong and soulful voice. I know he tries to take care of his voice with drinking tea all day. The more he continues to interact with his fans, the better he will do overall. Word of mouth is huge in the music industry. I’m so happy for Danny
.
Hi everyone.
I am glad to see that Danny has an increase in spins today and is still holding onto the #23 spot on mediabase.
I am glad that Jan and Toni had a good time last night at the concert, I hope pjgvet, and the others who attend the concert tonight have fun as well.
I had posted some of the videos I saw on youtube from Danny’s concerts at mjs. No one commented on them, but maybe some of the Danny fans that lurk that site got to see them and enjoy them. I am glad that Danny is able to sell his CD on tour. Also Danny is going up on Amazon again.
Hi All Wonderful Ihearts,
What great videos/pics/recap!!! Thanks so much Jan and Toni you guys are awesome.
Hannele, LOOK, WE’VE GOT VIDEOS/PICS/RECAPS, FINALLY!
I’m sorry to hear that Julianne wasn’t feeling well. She is really young. She is such a great dancer, I haven’t really listened to her music, but she has to be pretty good.
Danny does look so young without all the extra hair on his face. I love watching his expressions when he sings. He feels the songs that he is singing and that’s why I think he would be really good at acting. His expressions and body language are so animated.
Pam/Steph Have a great time tonight. Tell Danny that all of his Ihearts love him.
FOGS,
The videos that you posted on MJ’s, are those the same videos that Erika posted here on Iheart? If not, then, can you post them here too?
VickieCarol
I looked and they are the same videos that are posted on this site, from the concerts in Idaho and Utah.
Oh, Okay, Thanks FOGS
Mj just put up a separate thread and posted the videos from the two concerts Danny has done on tour so far.
That’s great. I’ll go check it out. Thanks FOGS.
I see that someone on mj is hating on Danny. A couple of us were commenting on the thread that mj put up about his tour concerts about how much younger he looks shaved.
And a hater came in there and said he can shave all day but that won’t make him a good singer. And they said he was off key on every song and that he was licking his lips after every phrase during every song.
They must have been studying Danny intently to notice how many times he licked his lips lol. I think that overall Danny did a nice jobs with his performances on concerts, and that people just like to hate on him.
Twitter: .
The poster at MJ’s probably thought she was being witty, too bad it was a fail. I added my comments and also included the review posted above.
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Jan and Toni, thanks so much, you two are wonderful. I’m so glad that the security guard waited until the end of IWNSG to chastise you, love hearing him bring that song home, it’s so beautiful.
So great that Pam will be there too at the show tonight, it’s so fun to hear everyone’s reactions.
I was just checking youtube to see if anyone had loaded any of Julianne’s set b/c I am a little curious (didn’t see anything), and saw where someone had made what looks like a tribute to Nick Jonas using “Crazy Not To”, did you guys already notice that? This just amuses me, Danny’s voice singing lovingly to Nick Jonas, lol!
Twitter: jevjos
Tim’s not at 20 weeks yet, he was negative last week. If he’s still on then next week would be his last I think. Martina and Tim have been fluctuating for a while negative/positive monitored spins and have been very high on the total spins chart. Tim’s at -337 right now for total spins down, Martina’s been in the -100s all week. The pulse didn’t have them as quite ready to go but that they could go and not looking good to recover. It’ll be weird if no one leaves the chart this week. 3 of the top 4 are all negative right now, that’s a first I’ve seen that. I’m also surprised that LBB is negative and might end the week there, she definitely won’t be gone. I thought since some of the radio stations were overplaying the song that it was working well. I guess not. I’m confident Danny will be fine tomorrow night.
Hi guys. I wouldn’t be surprised when IWNSG comes out, that there will be videos out there using that song. It would be really nice if they used the video for some Hollywood movie
. Everyone who is going tonight- have a great time ! Looking forward to your reviews
. I have to laugh at all the haters on MJ’s site. Do they have any idea how many musical artists are off key when they sing live. It’s well known that Brittany Spears lip syncs because she can’t sing live at all. Danny has the luxury of having a powerful voice and he is by far the best artist I have heard live
.
Twitter: jevjos
The station in Madison that wasn’t playing it so much looks like they played it alot now, so it’s being played well on both. The station in Denver also looked like they up’d their spins as well.
Twitter: jevjos
This is Joe Nicols-video on the countdown. He talks about how he and Danny looked like. He says the salesman lied to him. It’s kinda of funny.
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Country-Countdown-USA/6802228127
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
I also meant to tell Lulu that I love your chart!
And Lizzy, I agree with you about the black T-shirt. You may have seen my post a day or two ago saying I thought that Danny should just throw out all his other shirts and have the black T-shirt as a signature look! Just kidding about that, he has a lot of nice shirts he looks great in, but the black T is my favorite. As I’ve mentioned before, the set of photos from Fremont Street in Las Vegas was my favorite that I’ve seen of Danny, and that’s what he was wearing. I agree that he looks great in black.
I was thinking about that reviewer not liking WHTM. Danny has been doing an audience participation thing with that song, and I think maybe that works better for his own shows in smaller venues than it does in a big concert venue. Danny’s so great at forming an emotional connection with the audience, and I think that’s very important for this song. I think maybe the disrupted flow of him stopping and starting as an interaction with the audience might be why the reviewer didn’t connect with Danny on this song as he or she did on the other songs. I know Danny successfully formed an emotional connection with the audience on that song on the Idol tour, and those were huge audiences. I was thinking, what changed?, I think the audience participation thing might be it. I know Danny has said he is always thinking about what works well and changing things up, so it could very well be that I’m wrong and it was just this one reviewer who was an anomaly.
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Cherie, Joe talked about that on Big D and Bubba too, I agree, he was funny about it!
Twitter: jevjos
I’m glad they both had a since of humor about that. It could be really embarrassing. I’m sure there’s more than one store that carries that jacket.
Josie, I was thinking about WHTM also. It will be interesting to see the next couple of reviews to see if it was just this one critic’s point of view. I think Danny sings it really well but I’m a little disappointed whenever he has the audience do the glory note. It may save him vocally a little bit though. I just feel that his original music is so strong that he should be able to have a really good 5 song set just with album cuts. If he wants to do an audience participation song (which he really excels at) I Still Believe works really well for that. Or, if he wants to stay with a familiar cover, Life Is a Hwy works great! Can’t wait to hear how it went tonight!
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Sigh, I keep forgetting stuff I meant to mention. Steph I had mentioned looking forward to hearing Pam’s reactions from the show in addition to Jan and Toni’s. I don’t know why I didn’t realize you were there too but of course I look forward to hearing your reactions as well. And any other fans who are there too, of course.
Aw, here’s a nice tweet from someone who looks like a young mom:
Saw Danny Gokey and Sugarland two nights ago in Nampa, ID. It was one of the greatest shows I've been to. Danny was just amazing!!!
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Milgokey, maybe he will try Life is a Highway, I really like that one too. I think audience participation is better for a high energy/party type song like that, than it is for an “emotional connection” type song like WHTM. If I got to tell him what to do (yes, I am the bossy big sister type sometimes
), I think I’d suggest that he do Crazy Not To instead of WHTM.
Haha – wouldn’t it be great if Danny would just do everything we want him to, lol! Not a chance of that happening, unless he ends up in Seattle sometime soon
Hi everyone-I`ve been watching the videos and I have to say Danny sounded better than ever-I just love his gift for connecting with the audience, whether it`s a big arena, or a more intimate setting-Thanks to Jan and Toni for braving the security guards, we appreciate it,I`m sure other International fans agree, we cherish every video of Danny, and we will return the favour when he tours here!! Have to mention that A.L. was on UK chat show this week, Jonathan Ross, the host, is very popular here-and quite a controversial interviewer- It was good that he showed clips of AI-and it was a really good interview-I know that we shouldn`t mention A.L. on here, but, I happen to think he and Danny got along well-and he`s talented in a different way to Danny, of course! Anyway,this time next year, it may well be Danny on UK T.V, can`t wait for that!
Twitter: jevjos
Maybe he’ll take requests, it’s worth a try?
I do think Life is a highway will work better than What Hurts the Most. It’s more of a high tempo dance song for the people that are more drunk. Not saying there all like that but the rowdy people might like the more uptempo ones. Just to get people into it more.
He should also do It’s only whenever he’s with Lady A, just because.
I was checking my DVR to record the American Idol Shop on QVC and I noticed they only have it scheduled for May 13th at 10:00 PM and May 18th at 10:00 PM I thought that there was mention of Danny being on QVC twice, the 10th and 18th, with Kris on the 13th. I don’t see anything scheduled for the 10th.
Twitter: jevjos
I do believe he’s going to go internationally in time but for now, he people seem to want him in the US. But it’s great if his cd is for sale abroad and his music on the radio .He’s the only one that hasn’t been abroad yet from last year maybe next year. I don’t think the US minds sharing him and his talent with the world.
Forget my last post – I just checked the article posted here and Danny is on the 13th and 25th and Kris is on the 18th – not sure why I thought Danny was on the 10th. Anyway, I have my DVR set up to record the series.
I agree that Life is a Highway may be a better song for Danny to sing at the concert. I’m sure he will tweek his set as time goes on. Can’t wait to hear from the Ihearties attending tonight. Who is there tonight??
Twitter: jevjos
Danny’s on the day before the finale. Maybe you DVR is confused or the programming was changed initially. I would just try to record it anyways with the dates and times that we got.
Twitter: .
That’s interesting Lizzy
I see in the slots they originally had the 18th and the 25th they now list as “by popular demand” maybe they are going to test interest after Dannys’ visit next week.
Twitter: jevjos
I think they are going to be adding some others to the line up as well. Who????
Anybody hear on how Kim’s visit did/went?
Twitter: .
Actually when you go to QVC they no longer have the show scheduled at all. I wonder what happened?
Twitter: jevjos
I saw that they have by Popular Demand in the schedule in his slots on the webpage, maybe just the title was changed? I can’t imagine it being canceled.

They still have the items for sale as well as Kim’s cd on the webpage, so that’s good. So if is wasn’t happening at all, I think those items would be gone. I’m guessing it’s just a change.

They have a customer service number on the web page if anyone wants to call them and find out. I’m not sure they’ll know about his program or anything like that. Just if anyone wants to know for sure.

I have sent them an email.

Good Evening Ladies!!!
pretty slow here today! nice recap Jan!!! we need pictures YAY!
hmm gotta comment on the post yesterday about a Filipino newspaper on Danny! Philippines is a whole nation of Dannyfans I gotta say YAY!!! it sure is!!!
I really wanna know how those Meet and Greets during Sugarland Concert really work, I mean, how long it lasts, do you fall in line, is there a time limit… something like that, or can you make a small conversation to Danny and something like that… Im really curious… I really hope Danny would go here to VA Beach, it says on the promo about Sugarland is only there are special guests and its not specified yet!!!’
Danny Gokey Day today!!! a whirlwind of ups and emotional events Danny went through this past year!!! Gotta watch it again!!!
Twitter: .
@dannygokey You should have more songs in your set than Julianne Hough- just saying!!!
I believe this is her last night, next week is Jake Owen.
Thanks for all the tweet reports ladies. Sounds like Danny did really well!

To Jan and Toni! if yall lurking, I just noticed on the IWNSG video on Idaho I think, on the background, just before the end of the song I heard a lady saying “no recording”??? so recording is prohibited on the concert??? Is this true? what happened?

Hey peeps,
I noticed yesterday that the American Idol Fan Shop shows weren’t scheduled on QVC programming anymore. I sent an e-mail yesterday asking about it but no answer yet. I hope it hasn’t been canceled. I wonder if the show with Kimberly did not get the return they were expecting… but, then again, they aired it at 2 am…
Twitter: .
People do say the strangest things on Twitter
#I saw Danny Gokey doing something somewhere on TV. I have no idea what it was or where I saw it. But I thought of you.

Erika, I also sent them an email, if I don’t get a response I will try calling them.
Twitter: jancute
hey Erika! hmm maybe if Danny and Kris will perform there, the audience output will be decent cuz as you know, Kimberly is a very “not so much” known Idol and its been a long time that he became famous… Hey I hope its not too late for me to donate for your trip here, I just need to manage my somethings here…
Twitter: jevjos
Danny and Kris will definitely have more of an effect than Kim. Maybe the guys should’ve went first. Considering if the return wasn’t what they expected, it was 2 in the morning as well. I can’t imagine there’s that many people watching it at 2am. If if would’ve been canceled though, I think the items would’ve been removed. I can’t imagine that the expectations were high for Kim.
Twitter: Owlki
That’s the thing, Gokeyguy… the shows with Danny and Kris are not appearing on QVC’s program guide anymore so we don’t know if they’re still going to be there or not… I watched the segment where Kimberly sings. Nice vocals. I really hope it hasn’t been canceled.
And thank you for intending to donate towards my trip.
It’s not too late, the girls are still raising funds.
Also watched Katherine McPhee’s duet with Zachary Levi (from Chuck) over at MJs. It’s funny because we’re having a Chuck marathon here at home, watching episodes after episodes. And then I saw that MJ had a video of him singing with Katherine (the only other time I saw her singing was when she appeared on CSI:NY). Also watched Carrie’s Undo It. She’s fierce indeed.
Twitter: jevjos
Since it’s the weekend they might not have people answer their emails 24X7, so you might not hear back until regular business hours.
Twitter: jancute
Erika, I really love to help you out and its time to give back to you, its the least we can do here at iheart! A shoutout to all ihearties, active or semi-active, to give generous donations!!! <3 I hope they wont cancel that program with Danny cuz I really want to watch it though…
They just need to think of the best time to air it so it will be effective for the audience!!!
Twitter: Owlki
Yeah, you’re probably right, Cherie.
Thanks, Gokeyguy.

Hey everybody, had a long work day.

That pic is so cute at the top, can’t believe it’s been a year since the introduction of DG Day.
He deserves all the good things that come his way; I so hoped he’d be the American Idol *sigh* I still can’t believe he’s not, grrrrrr. Uh oh, I hope I don’t sound bitter; do I sound bitter… I hope I don’t sound bitter…I’m not bitter…ok I’ll shush
good night all

This is very late and I am sure that this post may not be seen but here it is anyway. I did do video again tonight and they might be much better than the SLC ones. I do want to let everyone know that Danny during the M&G mentioned more than once how much he loves all the Iheart fans and all their support. Lizzie and Josie you got your wish since he was wearing a black t-shirt for tonight’s concert and he truly looked awesome. I just want to say that although Danny performs for 20 minutes it is still an amazing concert to be going to and definitely worth going as show of support for Danny and just think how large these audiences are and he will gain so many new fans. He also signs autographs after every show. Thank you all for the nice comments on the pictures and videos I am glad I could video it and share with everyone on iheart. We had a great time with everyone and it was a pleasure meeting Steph and we plan on doing some Colorado Springs sightseeing together tomorrow AM. Goodnight or actually Goodmorning. Toni
Hi Toni! Glad you enjoyed the shows! As you can see (or will if you check back tomorrow), someone is seeing your post! (Of course it helps being on the West Coast; not so late here.)
