Good morning
Reports are starting to come in from our travelers along with videos
Here is video of WMO – with all of the words
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Do22EvVdXs&feature=player_embedded
(thanks Michelle)
More news about that song with Ma$e – it is for an upcoming albbum that he is releasing with other big name artists. This should veeeery interesting.
Lovely professionally shot video from the wedding:

More to come as they rest up
TTYL
Good Morning. Wow- thanks Danip for the great video of Danny’s wedding! They make a great couple. It was interesting news about who Danny is collaborating with these days. Good for him. Have a good Wednesday everyone/

Danny also mentioned that SHF will be trying to get runners in the half marathon on April 28 in Nashville as well as a possible event prior to the Marathon. More details to come. We can support the runners if we want to help out Compassion Nashville
MJ has an article up about Jamar. She linked to this article in the New York Post.
http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/tv/speaking_up_DZ9O6hILSXlLbtweTMBZbM
The Post article has mention of Danny and a picture of Danny.
I don’t understand MJ’s headline and tweets about Jamar. She has posted that he has Aids. Jamar (as far as I know) has said that he has HIV. I don’t believe HIV and AIDS are the same thing from what I’ve read, so it seems her headline may be wrong.
Lovely wedding video. So happy for them both.
Welcome home travelers. Thank you for all the information.
Enjoy the day…
MJ has now changed her headline to HIV.
This was in her original headline and is in her tweet:
This is her new headline:
I see that someone replied to MJ’s tweet about the AIDS headline and corrected her.
“********The Voice – Jamar Rogers On Speaking Out on AIDS Diagnosis –> http://bit.ly/xFJyG6 (Only BFF Danny Gokey knew when he auditioned for Idol)
1 hour ago”
“********Tracey @mjsbigblog he doesn’t have AIDS though. He’s HIV+
15 minutes ago via web”

Paul’s credit on the video goes to Jan I just copied it over

Hmmm site + latency does not like my Kindle Fire. post above should read
Paula, Credit for the wedding video goes to Jan, I just brought it over this morning.
Article and wedding video at Taste of Country:
http://tasteofcountry.com/danny-gokey-wedding-video/
picked up by radio station:
“KSLI1280 KSLI1280

Here we go again (I hope) with another round of media attention. This is fun.
Posted at my favorite site:
It’s nice to see Danny getting another round of attention regarding his wedding.
So, is Jamar a contestant on the Voice? He seems like a really nice guy.
Yes.
Jamar tweeted a link to his audition.
Sophia’s Heart has a FB post up about the marathon
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sophias-Heart-Foundation/49133029269
.
Leyicet has set up a public FB page, and I saw someone mention her twitter may now be off private.
It appears she and Danny have a new family member according to this.
Cute, but I think he needs a better name
Taste of Country sent out another tweet.
Twitter: .
Kinda of a long name for a family member
thought it would be Go-key
Twitter: jevjos
Jamar is brave for saying that I hope he does well on the show.
Twitter: jannworth
I just watched Jamar’s audition for the Voice. I liked it, but I liked the friend he was to Danny during his most difficult time, even more….
Jamar’s past drug usage might be another window into why Danny wants to help former drug addicts at Compassion Nashville…. Just a thought.
By the way, did we mention that Danny went scuba diving in Cozumel? I was told a story by his companions that day that they all intended to go snorkeling, until Danny and Leyicet started speaking Spanish to their guide and somehow snorkeling became Danny’s first scuba diving event.
Danny said the instructions were minimal and the experience was more difficult than he expected. But I was told by someone holding a rope to the surface that he and Leyicet swam away. (But Danny reported to me that he was less comfortable with how to breath than L was….)
I’m sure little snippets will continue to surface as I go about my daily routines.
Twitter: jannworth
I loved this picture of Kat and Amanda “tebowing” with Danny at the Superbowl Party
http://twitpic.com/8hfqv1 I asked them to share it with us. So cute!
By the way, would you believe that Danny was treated to a huge slice of chocolate cake before our pizzas arrived? And he wouldn’t share?
Nasty comment left on My country. Don’t worry took care of it……

Hello there peeps. The budget meeting that I had to miss the cruise for happened today. Went fine. i was there two days straight w/o going home. I am so tired. I don.t expect you to care about this, I just want anyone who cares to know why I am not here. It’s not because I don’t care about Danny or you anymore.
Twitter: jannworth
And I hope it is OK that I share a link to Marcia’s facebook pictures from the cruise?

She’s so much faster than some of us…..
Twitter: jannworth
Kat Lee, I see we both commented on the Taste of Country comments….
BTW, I told my son that Danny was going to be on Ma$e’s next album and he was very happy….
There are some people that do want Danny to do music other than country. I want him to be on all radio stations
and tv shows and award shows and

Hi Josie. I know last week must have been a tuff one for you
G’ nite all.
Twitter: .
Good morning
See Jan, I knew more things would come to mind once you were rested.
I listened to Ma$e ‘ music the other day and this project with Danny is very different. Danny once told us that his new music would be edgy, wonder if this is what he meant
TTYL
Good Morning. Thanks again Jan for some more info about the cruise. I have never listened to Ma$e’s music before. Is he a rapper? I heard that scuba diving the first time can be kind of difficult, when you are not used to the breathing apparatus. Josie- I know what you mean by being busy. I have been really busy at work and unfortunately for me it is never ending. I guess it is job security right? I like the new kitten as the newest member of Danny’s family. It is an interesting name I will admit. Well, off to the gym. Have a good thursday all. The weekend is almost here.
AAHH Josie I care and I am glad everything went great. And I know how yucky budget meetings can be. You get some rest now.
Jan I tired to get into Marica’s pictures and could not get in. Dang !!!
GoodMorning everyone. Better get ready for work.. Have a great day everyone.
The Boot has Danny’s wedding video.
http://www.theboot.com/2012/02/09/danny-gokey-wedding-video/
(There are lots of tweets out–different sites picking up the link.)
This link may not go to Danny’s story for very long because the page changes as new articles come in, but for right now it works. It goes to the aol home music page. There, Danny is currently second on music news (under a story about Ozzy). A small but beautiful picture of Danny and Leyicet is shown. The story leads to The Boot article.

Good Morning Ihearties. Thank you Lurker the link is still there and working. Left a comment. Going to Cruise vicariously through Marcias pics now. TTYL Got my Gokey book this morning. Yayyyyyy.
Marcia link not working….Boooooooo

Another tweet from The Boot:
They are really promoting Danny’s video (on twitter). I think they like it!
Twitter: declan_PH
Hello everyone!!!
First time to watched the Danny & Leyicet’s wedding video.
Actually, I just finished. Congratulations to both of them. Doesn’t have internet in our home, I am now in my sister’s house because she feels sick. So, I go here with my mother.
Congratulations to DG’s Annual Cruise, hope it was a successful one. Sure that everyone went to attend had fun.
Josie, sorry to know that you didn’t able to attend the cruise.
Glad your meeting went fine. And there’s still 2013, 2014….. cruise 
God bless everyone!!!
Twitter: jannworth
sorry that Marcia’s pictures from the cruise don’t work. It may be she has set it for friends only, or I copied it wrong…. I will have pictures….
Twitter: Jusher64
Josie – WE CARE!!!!!
Hope everyone is doing well and I hope to catch up on everything this weekend.
KatLee- how’s the book? I need to order mine after payday on the 17th. Two of my recaps are in there and I’m super excited about reading everyone else’s!!!
I got my SHF necklace about three weeks ago and I love it. It’s adorable. Just wish I requested a “J” on the back. LOL!!!

@GwenSebastian I saw you when you opened for Danny Gokey in Meeker CO for the 4th! So happy you made it on the voice! http://pic.twitter.com/3rWssqWd

Another interview with Jamar in which he mentions Danny. The mention is more than halfway down the page. The interview is with several people. I skimmed down, picking out Jamar’s answers.
this is stupid but what book???? Is there a book on recaps and can I order one too. god I sound like a little kid begging for candy.
This is a country radio page. They write a few paragraphs to go with the video. They were very sweet to Danny.

Hi everyone-
Danny’s management must have sent that video around- keeping him in the public eye.
Hope all the cruisers are recuperating; I bet it is difficult to settle back into the swing of things, and also catch up
Kathy/Milw- talk to Toni- she is the master of “The Book”
So happy Jamar is getting another chance- I agree Jan-he was/is a very good supportive friend to Danny and also very persistent in his career! I missed his audition, was at work, but will hopefully catch him again; not sure how the Voice works.
“Danny also mentioned that SHF will be trying to get runners in the half marathon on April 28 in Nashville as well as a possible event prior to the Marathon”
Thanks to Michelle’s prodding and Asics mentoring, I’ve been training since December- slow but sure. I may not make good time, but will get across that finish line one way or another!!!
And hopefully raise some funds for a great cause while we are at it
Asics and I have a First Giving Page set up, and hope to have a certain third join us in the run April 28.

Heading to LaCrosse tomorrow to move my son’s things out of the dorm (it burned!) so a weekend away…hope everyone has a good one.
Thank you Pam. I will get in touch with Toni. When I was driving home Toni did come into my mind. Have a great weekend too.
Off-topic:
I hope this video does not embed. I want to post just the link. I don’t, however, know how to boss these links around. When the video wants to embed, it just does: no permission asked; no permission given.
I think this video is interesting. It shows the people working behind the scenes filming the last episode of House. In the episode, it seems there are only two people in the room. It appears time passes between interviews. The clip below shows the room full–very full–of people. Instead of one actor leaving and lots of time passing while another actor comes to the interview room, they have people kneeling on the floor ready to quickly move into the interview chair to keep filming moving fast.

Lurker,
I watched this episode Monday. It was one of my favorites. I was sad to hear that House will be having it’s last episode in May. I’m a fan of House and Huge Laurie. He along with the original cast will be missed…
I sure wished I lived closer to participate in the run. My daughter-in-law is a runner. She lives closer, but not close enough. It should be a fun day for a good cause.
Pam,
So sorry to hear about your son’s dorm. It burned! I remember those days with my kids.
Have a nice evening everyone..
Pam- good luck moving your son’s things out of his dorm. I wish you luck in training for the half marathon! I have a few friends who are runners. It sounds like a good event for SHF. I do hope Jamar does well on the voice. I give him credit for not quitting his dream.
Kathy in Milwaukee, I think there may be legal reasons why Toni doesn’t push sales of the book, but even though I’m a lawyer, I am not sure that I understand what the problem is. It’s a book of recaps, but also contains photos of Danny and band members taken by ihearties attending concerts. But Danny owns the rights to his own image. It’s a really complicated area of law. I think Toni got feedback — maybe from Danny’s management or then-label? — that made her want to keep things lowkey. (I don’t think it had anything to do with Danny himself.) As I said, I don’t understand, so you will have to talk to Toni.
The recaps are a different matter. We wrote ‘em so we own ‘em. I tried to make mine amusing (which wasn’t hard). I think I did around six recaps.
If there is any interest, I am perfectly happy to share my recaps on this site, for those who may not be able to get the book. (Blurb doesn’t deliver to other countries, for example.) Just let Steph or Erika know if you are interested, and I will give them my recaps. (I suspect that if enough ihearties expressed interest, they would post them.)
JJ, I will be interested in what you think of the other recaps when you get your copy of the book. I know I thoroughly enjoyed yours!
Jill and Ellen I loved your recaps.
They were great.
I also have two in there. I would also share them if they want. Ellen and Toni I was so excited, I’m sorry if I overstepped about the book. 
Finely catching up since the cruise. My daughters (Stacie and Kaylie) and I had so much fun on the cruise! They are already talking about going again next year!!! It was fun for me to hear Danny sing in person, have my picture taken with him for the 1st. time and to meet and talk to some of you! My girls enjoyed seeing Danny, but they really liked Matt.
