Danny has been working hard and non-stop to get radio stations to add “My Best Days Are Ahead Of Me” to their playlist. We can help him with it!

Once radio stations add a song to their playlist, fans can help move it up the charts by requesting it so that it gets played more. So let’s get Danny’s single all the way to the top! Let’s request it!

Radio stations DON’T like to get bombarded by fans, but they DO like to hear from their local listeners. Below is a list of country radio stations.

If your local station is GREEN on the list, that means that they have added “My Best Days Are Ahead Of Me” to their playlist, so contact them and request Danny’s music!

It’s important to call stations in which you’re in the listening area. Apparently, radio stations consider phone calls to be the most influencing type of contact, but some of them also have online capability to make requests, twitter or facebook (you can find out the details about your station by checking out their site).

First of all, ask if you can request a song on that phone number. Some radio stations have a specific phone number for requests or specific hours when they take them. Be nice. When contacting your station, please DO NOT “spam” them. Once a day is more than enough. We don’t want them to get tired of you.

Also, don’t talk about “spins” and “adds”, those are “industry words” that fans don’t typically use. Just request the song, let them know how much you like it, dedicate it to someone… you may even mention that you saw him on American Idol or the music video on GAC or CMT Pure (talking about it, VOTE for Danny’s video! Use the buttons on the right side to go to GAC and CMT Pure!). * Now Danny’s video is on CMT Top 20 Countdown as well! Vote for that too! *

If your station is RED or YELLOW on the list, that means that it still doesn’t have Danny’s single on its playlist. DON’T GIVE UP! Contact them to let them know how much you want to listen to “My Best Days Are Ahead Of Me” playing on your radio! Show interest! The same rules apply, though… DO NOT “spam”!

Danny asked us to tell you all that he loves you, to thank each and every one of you for requesting his music on the radio and for all the support. It’s been making a huge and positive impact!

He’s a phenomenal talent… an amazing soul… a beautiful human being. He deserves all the success! Let’s get him to the top!

The list is on .pdf format. You need Acrobat Reader to see it. You can search for your station using the ‘Find’ box or the binocular, zoom in and out using the + and – buttons, save the list to your computer or print it.

GREEN: Stations that have added MBD on their playlist.
RED: Stations that have not added MBD on their playlist yet. Their spins (number of times a song is played) count towards charts.
YELLOW: Stations that have not added MBD on their playlist yet. Their spins don’t count towards charts but them playing the single helps to promote it.

@JosieInSeattle, many thanks for your humongous help!

Danny, thanks for checking it out and for the feedback!
