Everyone going HAVE A BLAST !!
Send Dave our love !!

[cantpickaname 0]

Have a great time, everyone going!!

Aw. No VIP?? I'm sorry to hear that, especially if this is anyone's only concert.

[dudwalt 0]

VIP is back on --- at 10:45 p.m. last night, the powers that be negotiated an agreement with State Theatre and the VIP is now on schedule. I will be there.

[CookifiedTexan 0]

Yep :

@StateTheaterDC The David Cook VIP meet and greet will happen today. Sorry for the confusion. See you soon!


Always such a clusterfuck when Dave is involved

[Guest Guest]

That's great news... I'm glad it's back on!

[Guest Guest]

I'm happy for everyone going to this show that the VIP is back on! Have a great night.

I have never seen this amount of men at a Cook show. Groups of them with no dates to be seen. Interesting.

[Guest Guest]

I watched some of the CL ustream, and there are a ton of guys there... they were really rocking out to CL, and I hope they do the same for David.

By the way, the ustream for David will be HERE. Thanks to Khatoun for streaming... the sound was great for CL!

He's on now... amazing sound! And I love the tall guy ahead of Kathie (the streamer) who is bouncing around and obviously knows the words!

No denim shirt tonight... t-shirt!

Heh, Dave noticed the tall guy and was joking with him that the poor lady behind him can't see and needs a booster seat.

Jan go back to the ustream and watch the entire thing if you can. It was an awesome show tonight. The sound was perfect!

Thanks Barb.

Ok Viv Thank You XOXOXOOXOX

Watching now oh my god your right Viv Perfect Sound . Loving this .

[Guest Guest]

OMG! Watching stream now.... tall guy with the stripped shirt is craking me up, hahaha!!

Wonderful sound! Great show! Great crowd!

[Guest Guest]

Watching the stream now. Awesome sound. That's so cool that striped-shirt guy is so into it but man, the poor people behind him. He's huge.

[redsoxmom 0]

It was a great show!! David was in fine form, and the crowd was big, enthusiastic, and diverse. Lots of guys (a surprising number on their own), little girls, teen girls, twentysomething girls, mature ladies out, and couples. I will report more at some point sooner rather than later this weekend, but I need to get rolling in the AM stat to start preparations for houseguests and my menus for the week... including that turkey one on Thursday! Just wanted to check in!

[vsteph1 0]

redsoxmom So glad the show was good. How exciting about the guys not only being there, but it appears they enjoyed the show! The energy must have been awesome, because we could feel it in the ustream. Can't wait to hear more.

[dudwalt 0]

I was camera busted two minutes into the show. I am so disappointed. I didn't even have my big Nikon with me - I had my micro four thirds camera, but the lens is kind of big. I was busted in the balcony too! How silly is this? I only captured six pics and they were my test pics as I like to wait for the good white lighting to appear. The six pics are just OK. Normally I snap 500-1000 at a show and this evening I came away with six. The venue did not even announce a camera restriction. I so wish David's group would let the venues know of his preference as he doesn't seem to care about camera issues. There were lots of weird rules at this venue. I saw lots of guys really getting into David's music.

Needing some information! I understand that there was an after concert meet and greet at this show and I was wondering how one can get in on this. I know at the David/Gavin shows, you had to purchase a bundle for $45. Is this one similiar? Please help! Would love to know because I'm going to the KC concert next Friday!

Thanks in advance!

[Guest Guest]

Paper Heart by Justicelvr-love the Win your asses over one by one banter to start! Thanks!

[Guest Guest]

From DavidorDaughtry - banter about the woman dancing, "whatever, just don't flip us the bird," and the woman standing on something:

[dudwalt 0]

As I noted, I just got six "test" pics before I was ordered to put my camera away. I should start my testing when the white light appears on stage. Normally, I would not post these because I do not think they are worthy, nevertheless, this is all I have.

[Guest Guest]

Cindy, I think they were worth posting. Thanks!

[realiTVlover 0]

Cindy, that's a bummer about your camera. Usually, the only rule is no professional cameras. Even shows that have very loose rules, it seems David / his management are totally okay with non-professional cameras and videoing; they just only let people with press passes use professional ones. Which I get, because those cameras can be so big they obstruct other people's view. I don't know much about cameras but maybe it looked like a professional one?

Thanks for sharing what you got with us - they're lovely.

Now he's doing GTTG sans guitar?
I swear the show I went to is going to end up being one of very few that he wore the guitar every damn song. I'm PRAYING he'll drop the guitar for at least a song at Irving Plaza.

[Guest Guest]

Stacy, I'm hoping for at least one guitarless song at the Keswick show too.

Oh and I have to say I LOVE HIS BANTER!

I am not sure because I did not partake... but I saw a couple of ladies on the floor behind me who were holding tee shirts. I asked them, "Are they offering an after-show meet and greet tonight?" They said Yes, that with a $45 and up purchase you could participate. Good luck!

Cindy, your shots are terrific! I was on the floor, and I was looking around for someone with a really nice camera and a long lens. If I saw someone who fit that description I was going to go up and ask, "Cindy??"

[Guest Guest]

We did not do the aftershow M&G last night, but I checked it out. It is "Spend $45 on David's merch and you get the M&G wristband." You do not have to buy anything specific, just a minimum of $45 spent.

[Mrs.DavidCook 0]

Do think they'll do that at any other shows?

LOL! Only applicable if you saw me in the first two minutes of the show. Oh well... I am going to Keswick and hope the camera gods bless me.

[Guest Guest]

Cindy-Love your pictures! Andy looks great in the leather jacket!

I see Monty packed his famous Diet Coke shirt for tour.
