Morning Hearties!
So we’ve seen the puppy, we’ve named the puppy and we have seen the puppy starring in his own educational film
. Now we want to do the same with the new single, excluding the education (cause we all know how that works) 
It’s up to you, Danny !
TTYL

Amen, Danip. Danny, you know what to do: Announce that single0 And all the wonderous things that come with it….. Good day, ihearties! Jan
Hello danip and jan.
The fozyy video
Looking forward the new single.
Josie.Just you know the translation of your recap is done.
Twitter: steph6449
I hope Danip’s magical powers get some hints out of Danny & co. about his single.
Danny should be on the road to his next two concert dates by Friday if not sometime tomorrow, so time to tell us something about the studio work already
.
Here’s our firstgiving link for today, over $5700 now & hoping to possibly hit $7000 for Sophia’s Heart by the time the campaign closes in about six weeks.

Good morning!
Aw, thanks for using my old picture Erika! That is from the AI S8 tour in Milwaukee. That seems so long ago
Steph, that was an interesting article on women
being more generous charitable givers, even at all income levels. I guess I won’t be irritated with my hubbie anymore (I have had to “launder” some contributions through my work account, lol!) since he is just giving in to his natural testosterone influence 
Danip, you are so funny! Sex education for fans, lol!
Good morning Jan and XLGokey.
Off to work
Omg. I can’t believe it Danip. Fozzy in his own education video already? I guess cupid really hit that puppy on Valentines Day and now he is feeling the
for everything. That was so funny in that video from Danny’s latest twitter pic or video.

Twitter: hopeandfaith_13
“What are you doin’, ya little nasty?” LOL @ the new video!!
Have a great day, ihearts!
Twitter: BLfolsom
Good morning all, I like the pic at the top of the page; the camera caught a good moment.
I’m looking forward to hearing something..anything about the new single – what could it be??
Going off to the gym, I’ll check you all out later
Danny needs to go into the fashion business and have a line of clothes in his name.
This thought came to me when I was reading an article at aol about Jessica Simpson taking in $710 million dollars from her line last year.
Twitter: pjgvet
Lurker, he still has not come out with his own line of glasses! I think he is just really busy establishing his music career and Sophias Heart.
Someday……….

Question to all of you ladies because I’m clueless when it comes to where to ask this question. I got tickets to Danny’s M&G this Friday at Mohegan Sun in CT. How many minutes does each person have with him? Is it a quick picture and you are off?
Thanks, all!
Thanks, too, to the great ladies that keep this website going. You are the best!
Jasmine64.Hello I am probably not the one who can solve your problem cause I never been to a M&G.But I do read a lot of recaps.I think you can take a picture and sometimes send a present.I guess it also depends on how many people showing on M&G.
Twitter: pjgvet
Jasmine, you get probably a minute or two with him since they do it generally 60 minutes before the show.
It is enough time to say Hi, get a hug if you want, get a picture with him. Mike usually takes the pic with a professional camera, they post on DGO and you download there
a small gain in sales;
Twitter: BLfolsom
Jasmine64, you’ll love the M&G. Danny is so personable and sweet; just be sure to try to rehearse what you want to say to him because when he looks straight into your eyes it can be a little
At least that’s what happens to me. 
Billie, I know I get that
Every time I see him I practice on what I am going to say and he looks at you and smiles then bam I do not remember a thing. Jasmine64 you will love meeting Danny and he will love meeting you. 
Twitter: tonicny
Welcome Jasmine and jst want to add I will also be at that M/G be sure to say Hello its always fun to meet other fans from the site and Billie you are so right no matter how many times one meets him one still feels like its the first time brain goes to mush and I end up calling ihearties asking what did I want to ask or tell him? LOL!
I finally got to see Fozzy latest video. Danny’s comments had me cracking up!
Twitter: pjgvet
Well Aaron Rodgers just tweeted 1 minute ago so I sent him Danny’s National Anthem link. We will see if he bites, lol!
Of course he doesn’t follow me
He may not read his tweets until later. But good thinking, Lurker, it is worth a try!
Twitter: DGdes
Hi everyone!
Pam, thanks for that NA tweet to Aaron Rodgers, I retweeted it! I watched the video again and I really am so proud of Danny!!! Hope we can hear a bit about his new single too. Can’t wait!
I miss Kathy(Phila),I hope she’s doing alright.
I’m off to work! Be back later (much later, i think when everyone’s asleep). Have a great rest of the day everyone!
OH SNAP!! Happy Birthday to me!! I love the picture for the discussion today! Thank you, Erika!!
Danny, if you’re reading this….that is the hat I want. So if you ever get tired of it, pass it over to me please.
Thank you. 
Des, I been wondering about Kathy (Phila) to. She always made me laugh.
I loved Brandon’s song he sang on the cruise, it was cute.
Twitter: pjgvet
Lori, isn’t that the hat they auctioned off at the cruise? Or no? I am not a hat expert, lol.
Happy Birthday again!

Anyone watching AI?
Twitter: .
See Pam, I can always count on you to see through my cryptic posts each morning
I am going to try to watch AI tonight but the drama may force me out.
Eveing all. Lori- Happy Birthday
. Jasmine64- Welcome to the site. I hope you have fun meeting danny! I’ve been kind of busy the last couple of days. I might watch a little of idol tonight. I’m going to have to watch Danny’s new video of fozzy. Pam- nice that you tweeted Aaron Rodgers. Hopefully, he will talk to danny. Well, off to watch idol. bbl
Good evening iheart!!
Happy Birthday Lori! I don’t use twitter, so I am glad to see you here at iheart so I can wish you that now

AI doesn’t come on out West for another 3 hours…let us know if it is worth tuning in, OK?
Where is Kathy(phila) ….wasn’t she on the cruise? Did she get lost at sea or miss the boat and is still in Mexico
You are missed Kathy….
BTW Danip if you come on again….you started my morning out with a smile with that first tweet of the day
Oh, I forgot to say…
Welcome Jasmine64!!
I agree with Paula, that was a good idea Pam to tweet Aaron Rodgers about the NA!
a trending tweet that I like:
Twitter: pjgvet
Asics that was Lurker’s idea to tweet Aaron the NA Danny sang at the rodeo. She doesn’t have twitter so I did it.
He hasn’t replied back, but maybe he doesn’t read tweets until later
Pam, no, that was not the hat that was auctioned on the cruise. That hat was an American Idol hat and I don’t remember ever seeing Danny wearing it. This hat (in the pic above) is the hat D was wearing when I first met him in K.C. It was my phone screensaver for the longest time.
http://twitpic.com/fw3ei
Aaron Rodgers is?
btw, Asics, thank you for the birthday wishes. I’ve had a good day. I’m glad I popped in here because I got to see D in my hat.
Lori it is your birthday? Happy birthday.
Twitter: .
Asics717
My pleasure !!!
xlgokey
He is the Packers quarterback
xlgokey, thank you!
I’ve had a good day. Danny dm’d me and I got a tweet song from Scott Baio. 
Oh sorry Lurker….that was a really good idea you had to tweet Aaron, and thank you Pam for following it up!
Leave it to the iheart team to come up with great ideas and then make them happen

Pam,
Will Aaron have to click on the link to know the tweet is about Danny singing the NA?
I don’t understand how twitter picks up the name. I don’t see Danny’s name in the tweet, but the tweet does appear in list of tweets about Danny Gokey.
Thanks for sending the link to Aaron.
asics,
I wish I had written about it earlier, but I’m still hoping Aaron will notice it and maybe RT it.
Twitter: tonicny
Lori, Happy Birthday its your 18th Birthday right!
Also Thank you for posting Brandon’s song was really waiting for that to be posted as mine turned out too dark to post.
Enjoy the rest of your day/night.

(for comparison to see if concerts this weekend generate any movement)

I don’t pay too much attention but the hat on the cruise and the one in the pic above look similar to me to the one Danny was wearing in one of the AI mentor shoots. Maybe with Jamie Fox without his glasses? And one of the early radio tour shows, he wore it again or something similar. Like that one a lot better than the train conductor hat
Though the pic Connie got with Danny giggling wearing the train conductor hat made me feel a little better about it
Twitter: jannworth
Is nice to see the birthday girl, check in–Happy day, Lori.
I miss all our “drop out” ihearties that use to post here, too. Hopefully they are still lurking.
If not, how did they kick the Danny addiction, and do I want to know how to do it???!
I wondered why Danny didn’t get more itunes promotion from his label when his songs and album first came out. (I better understood the situation later as I read more.)
It appears that itunes placement is maybe a bigger deal and more expensive than I had thought it would be. I know it helps artists to sell, but for itunes to feature them seems to me an easy thing for itunes to do. Easy or not, they must make such placement hard to get.
I was reading (at Idol Chatter) about the guy who won the Keith Urban contest. He won a lot of impressive stuff: recording with Keith, opening for Keith, working with respected people. He also won this:
Twitter: jannworth
On American Idol tonight, a group of young people sang Somebody to Love. It brings me back to Danny Gokey’s Season 8 Rainbow Coalition. Danny’s of course was the best.
Twitter: jannworth
And now they’re singing Danny’s Get Ready. Wow. Gokey memories coming at me.
Lurker.Whatever the reason is.The less promotion thing is always my pain.
Steph, the hat in the above pic and my twitpic are different than the hat that was auctioned on the cruise. That hat had a distinct American Idol logo on it. Believe me, I noticed it. Now, D may have worn it in the mentor episode w/ Jamie Foxx but I don’t remember that. All I know is this, the hat I want is the one from my twitpic….which is not the same hat as there is no logo.
Toni,
18. that’s rich.
jan.Get Ready? That I will see later.
Twitter: pjgvet
Only the greatest quarterback in the world

XLGokey, he is the Green Bay Packers Quarterback (Danny’s team from Wisconsin) who won the Superbowl (the ultimate in American sports)
He is a Danny fan. He only follows 20 people and Danny is one of them.
Maybe someone else on Twitter could also tweet Aaron- @aaronrodgers12 with the link http://ow.ly/3X44X and include @dannygokey if they want. I don’t want to spam him since I already did it once.
Lurker I think it showed up under Danny Gokey because his name is in the link title, perhaps?
Twitter: steph6449
I thought maybe they didn’t see a need for an iTunes banner for Danny since he was going to be on AI, and that did drive a ton of sales. But it would have been really nice to see it, for his singles especially…
Maybe next time
It’s been very quiet in Danny-land except for Fozzy updates. Maybe this is one of those quiet periods before the storm
Happy b’day Lori
Pam.Thank you.Did Danny send congratulations to Aaron Rodgers and packers on twitter? I bet Danny has his phone number and maybe he had called him.
Twitter: .
Well Steph I will try again in the morning, give the vibes a chance to soak in.
AI wasn’t too bad tonight althoughthey could have done the episode in an hour, which would have made it better
Well I’m out for the night as I try to install this stupid software for the 3rd time ..tech support finally got back to me, 5 days later. Customer service
TTYL
Twitter: jannworth
Pam, I retweeted your tweet to Aaron Rodgers when I got home from work.
Yes, its quiet here.
It’s interesting that we hear some of Danny’s songs on tonight’s episode of Idol. It makes me wonder how short the list of songs is that they get to choose from. I think they said the groups only had 20 songs to choose from.
Steph.Performing on AI and a banner on iTunes is all I want for Danny when his single is out.
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Hi everyone!
Happy Birthday Lori! I hope it is the start of a wonderful year for you!
That pic at the top of the page is so cute. Pam, the one I saw on your phone and said “aw that is so cute!” was from the same day, maybe?
XLGokey, I think it is very cool that my recap has been posted in Chinese! I love that.
Jasmine64, I am happy for you that you get to meet Danny this week! Try not to be too nervous, he really is so sweet and remember he wants you to enjoy that time with him. So take a deep breath and enjoy engaging with him for that minute or two. He will be happy to see you.
Twitter: steph6449
Forgot to say hello to Jasmine. Hope you will have a great time at the Mohegan Sun show

Interesting comment at mj’s from a poster who is taking some sort of entertainment industry class in LA. She’s a Kris fan so maybe she is just being protective about expectations to sell out venues of varying sizes, but the more general comments are interesting. Reminds me of the report from the Vermont fair, where Danny had (for him) a smaller crowd but the report was Wynonna had only 50-75 or some number thereabouts for her solo show.
On the specific example, I tend to agree though, not sure Crystal would be a very obvious concert draw. But may be wrong, depending on the situation. Her album is selling considerably better than I would have guessed from what she did on AI, how the voting turned out, and listening to samples from the album. Last I heard, Crystal really didn’t have a band of any regular sort.

Blogger with a nice comment on Danny’s AI group performance

Did any of the Idols from S9 do a CD release concert like Danny? Danny sold out Turner Hall –I think he could have filled the Riverside for his CD release party. We knew a 1000 was too small for Danny….
It’s only been 10 days and I’m going into concert withdraw…. a little news would help, Danny.
Twitter: steph6449
Jan, I remember hearing about David Cook having a CD release party. Not sure about others from AI8 or AI9…?
Or well, Michael Sarver did something in a mall, but not quite the same thing
Twitter: jannworth
Steph, I had to add this to the discussion of Crystal’s first paying concert at MJ’s
Twitter: BLfolsom
Wow, lot of Get Ready tonight. Such good memories of Danny and Jamar, nobody I really want to root for except Chris; I find he’s the one I’ll be mostly emotional invested in…but not nearly as much as Danny so far. By this time a few years ago I was in our guy…Signed, Sealed, Delivered
Twitter: BLfolsom
Jann, I’m headed over to twitter to see what you tweeted
Twitter: BLfolsom
Ah Jann, love IHITTGV
He kills it everytime. This years contestants seem a little stronger that last years bunch. Nothing I can put my finger on …yet, but still stronger.
Twitter: BLfolsom
Ok, I think everybody went to bed and I’m talking to myself.
Night all, see you tomorrow. ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz……………______________
Twitter: pjgvet
Josie, that is my picture at the top that you saw on my cell phone
It makes me smile for some reason; probably because I captured him in a candid moment.
And now knowing Lori covets that cap, lol!
I guess I started something at MJs, predicting Crystal would sell out her 500 venue. She was the runner up and is selling more than the winner so I would think she should be able to, but I guess we’ll see. It is her first concert too.
Good NIght all!
Twitter: BLfolsom
Ok, so I didn’t go to bed. Stayed up late watching all the old AI videos that Steph sent me.
Just reminded my why I’m such a fan of this gifted young man; beautiful heart, voice, and soul.
As I’ve said before; we are seeing a superstar being born right before our very eyes..and as Josie said, I’m so happy to be a very small part of that
Ok all, I really am going to
Night!
