Milwaukee November 11, 2009
Anybody got more details? All I've seen so far is "Riverside Theater" which is downtown. I'll be coming over from Madison for this show - wouldn't miss it, such an easy road trip.

I had such a great time at the show too! I am still in a DaveTrance and am currently in a state of withdrawal!! I had seats on the aisle which allowed me to move into the aisle a bit and look directly at David and I got eye contact and a smile at one point! I just love him!!! I too was annoyed by the person during Lie... so rude. I think the person was off to my left. I will be writing a recap sometime soon! Ava, good to see you and LeAnn I saw you off in the distance jamming to GRO!
Wondering about what time the Milwaukee show was over? Thanks!!
Glad everyone had an awesome time! How exciting to have seen them coming and going from the bus...WOW! Plus hanging out with GRO afterwards! Very cool
Great show! Thanks Steph, Patti, Hannah and Vicki for making it so great!
I agree that the Lie moment was ruined by the person who yelled out to him. Unfortunately she was on my side of the stage, so my video has her in it
Other than that, it was an incredible show! GRO were amazing, The Script were impressive and The Anthemic was simply perfection!! The crowd was great and we had a really stellar time!
Can't wait for two more shows next week!!

I agree Marge, that was really rude to whoever did it.
Had an awesome time last night! I was the one with the Hero Dave/The Anthemic poster. Afterward, when David was walking to the bus, he saw the poster and gave it the thumbs up. That really made my night! Got to hang out with GRO after the show. Just NICE guys. One of the best shows ever. The only bad thing was the 2 annoying drunk people next to me...but that's a whole other story!

I'd like to know what part of PLEASE BE SILENT during LIE that person did not get who just had to scream out. Hello?? It's his acapella moment. It would have been great to capture it w/o someone screaming IT WILL BE ALL RIGHT.
I'm just saying.

Just got home from Milwaukee. What an incredibly awesome show. I can't sleep. Got some good pics and video. Will upload tomorrow.
Got there early enuf to see DC get off the bus to go into the Riverside. I just stood back and watched. Thought I was gonna die.
Disappointing he didn't have the energy to meet his adoring fans after the show. He looked exhausted.
What's with the wrapped little finger?

Me and my friend should be getting to the veune by 2 if we're lucky. Hopefully we'll be able to scout out somewhere to have a *run in* with the boys. If not, we'll most likely just be hanging out around the main door. Hope to bump in to a few of you later!!
Sooo excited!!

I can't wait either BbyGirl680!!!! I plan on getting there around 5 or so...but can't say for sure because if I can get there earlier, I will...and then just wander around. Funny part is that alot of us will be there but I'm sure many of us have no idea who is who...cuz I know we can't all look like David Cook...lol. I would love to meet any of the band, but I think with their tight tour schedule it would be pure luck...but ya never know. It's my first DC concert so I am the last person who would be able to answer that question
Is anyone going to wait anywhere before the show to see if we can meet him? If so, where are you planning to go? And what time??
I would really LOVE a chance to meet him and take a picture, I just have no idea where to go or when! Thanks for any help anyone can give me!!!
Can't wait to see you all tonight!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!! So exciting!!!
kellie, you still looking for a ticket? I may have an extra (If my sister would get back ever get back to me!!) Contact me at XXX
I'll only be at this email until 1:00 today. Then heading to MILWAUKEE!!

Little Lies was on the setlist tonight and he replaced it with IJDIYAT. I'm bummed... probably means we won't get Yo Arms
wellseasonedCook, glad to hear you will be there! Sorry about the crutches and bronchitis... you poor thing! So, I'll make my same plea to you being in the first row... somehow get him to sing Silver or The Truth!!!! Oh yeah, and don't call me Blondie! LOL!
Hey everyone! I very recently found out that, through a series of miracles, I'm going to be able to make it to the Milwaukee show. I realize it's the eleventh hour here, but does anyone know anyone who has one extra amazing ticket?
I'm going to this one. Crutches and all. Broken leg, broken wrist and bronchitis. Rocking in the front row. Wouldn't miss this one so close to home.
I'll be there with multiple cameras!!! Tomorrow night at this time we'll be waiting for the show to start!

If I spot you Blondie, I'll just pretend I'm talking to some random David Cook fan that I've never met before. I won't blow your cover, I promise!
I'm bringing my camera as well. If they aren't checking purses or doing a body search, they can't be too concerned with cameras. Remember before the West Bend concert, they kept saying "No cameras" and we ended up using them anyways. So lets all bring our cameras and whip them out when GRO or The Script (whoever is up first) comes out. The more people with cameras, the less it will be for them to take them away.
1 day away...wow, time sure flies! See ya'll tomorrow....

Bummer....I was wrong! This photographer will be at the concert tonight in St. Louis. Sorry to get anyone's hopes up! I know mine were! But, I think he's only doing still photography not vidoeography! I want a DVD!!!
NewCookFan, LOL...you said "And I hope your cover won't be blown in case you end up in one of the shots". The only way my cover will be blown is if Ava or LeAnn come up to me and say "Hi Blondie" since I think those are the only two on this thread who know what I look like!
Wow Blondie811...maybe some of it will be used in some type of concert DVD release or something??? Thanks for the info. And I hope your cover won't be blown in case you end up in one of the shots (~smile~)
Marge1157, when my co-worker was there on Friday for the Seinfeld show, people were taking pictures even though it said on their tickets that photography and videotaping wasn't allowed. She got 2 really good pictures of Jerry. So I'm gonna bring my camera...just in case.
I'm finding that it's almost impossible to focus on work or anything today! Glad to hear that you guys feel the same
Did you guys see this on the Dwop thread?
@toddowyoung: @RachelParkerPix I'm photographing David Cook tomorrow night – thanks for the heads up, looking forward to it.
Apparently, Todd Owyoung is a professional concert photographer. Check out his website: ishootshows.com and his flickr gallery: flickr.com/photos/toddowyoung
I think this tweet from @toddowyoung was sent today...I wonder if that means our concert might be professionally photographed or videotaped? Is this a good thing? I think it is!!! Do you think this is related to one of the surprises?
One more day guys!! I can't wait for this show. XD

I would LOVE to hear Hunger Strike and TWIK. I'm really hoping to hear CBTM since he didn't do that at the Green Bay and that was the last show I attended.
NO CAMERA'S!!! GIVE ME A BREAK!!!! What are they thinking!!!! Why wouldn't camera's be allowed??? CR@P!!!

Does anyone sitting in the first or second row have a twitter? lol I am anxious to know the setlist before he plays in case he does a song I want to hear, and if you guys will be able to see it and twitter it I would love to be following you, LOL. Even if I can't hold my camera up and film it, I would like to even just turn it on and record the audio.
I'm dying to hear TWIK. If he does that I'm going to freak out majorly. Other than that I would love to hear Little Lies...which I've already heard once, but would LOVE to hear again (that was also one of my song goals lol). I've heard almost everything except Hot for Teacher, Til I'm Blue, My Last Request...and maybe a couple others lol. I haven't heard Permanent either, but there's no way lol. And I haven't heard Shattered Dreams, but he stopped doing it!

Can't wait till Wednesday. I have front row center balcony tickets and I'm going with my sister. I have 2 extra balcony, front row LFT seats 11 and 12 to sell. Will sell for face value plus fees. Let me know.
I would like to hear Life on the Moon, Yo arms and the mystery song.

I just called the Riverside and they said cameras are not allowed. They won't do searches, but if you are seen taking pictures, they will take them away. Also, he said posters should be allowed, that they've never really had any problems with them. I still plan on taking my camera in, though it will be hard to take pics since I'm right at the end of 4 row.

I'm so excited for Wednesday! Its so close! I'm really screwing myself academically to go to this show but it'll all be worth it. The things I do for just a few hours of pure happiness =)
2 days away and boy am I stressed out! But I'm super excited!
I'm hoping for "Yo' Arms", "MITB", "TIB", or "Anodyne" (I know THAT one won't happen, but who knows) They haven't done any MWK songs yet for the WI concerts, so I really really want to hear at least one live! I've kept hearing that there was a 'mystery' song being done during soundcheck, but as far as I knew, it wasn't familiar to anyone, some thought it may have even been one of those snippet songs. Either way, I hope we get it! Though "WOHWWS" did make it's 'debut' at Eau Claire. Either way, I'll love all the songs they do. I've NEVER been disappointed by the setlist.
I really hope posters and cameras are allowed. I'm making a poster for the concert and I REALLY want David to see it.
Not sure exactly what my plans are before the show. Probably will meet up with my DCO friend and her friend for dinner and maybe even do a little bar hopping...hopefully we'll run into Neal SOMEWHERE! LOL
See ya'll in 2 days!!!

So excited for this show!! I've got three this month, but this one is special since the boys are finally coming to my home town!!
As far as requests go, I would love to hear Yo Arms and Life on the Moon. LOTM is the only song from DCTR I haven't heard live yet. And I would lose it if they did "Make Me" or "Til I'm Blue" with Andy singing lead. I love that man's voice so much!!
What's everybody's plan for before the show? Are you all meeting up anywhere and what time are you getting to the venue?
Can't wait to see all you guys in only 2 days!! XD

I am so excited! I can’t wait! I will be laying kind of low for this concert since my hubby does not really know much of my DCO addiction or the existence of “Blondie”! I hope everyone has a great time! Anything anyone is hoping for? I really want IJDIYAT for a cover. I’ve heard HFT and Little Lies twice and I love, love, love Yo Arms! If not Yo Arms, then MITB is my second favorite cover. Other than that, I love everything they play. There’s rumor of a new song for the next album that might get thrown into a concert soon! That would be awesome! Ava and others in the front row, if you feel so inclined, feel free to use your proximity to try to get him to sing Silver or The Truth. He has sung each one (partially) at different concerts on request! Have you guys ever watched the youtube vids of Silver on 5/23? With his voice now, it sounds absolutely amazing live! I hope everyone has a great time!!!
I'll be there on Wednesday!!! So excited!!! My seat is very close to Pweller and even closer to Katie!! A co-worker was just at the Riverside this past Friday for the Seinfeld show. She said she took her camera and did get a couple of pictures of Jerry and that other people were taking pictures as well. She was in the balcony, 2nd row, LC...they could see just great! She said if Jerry would have walked to the very front of the stage, she wouldn't have been able to see him because of how the balcony was situated over that part of the stage. Nobody brought any signs and she didn't know if they would have been allowed or not. There were waitresses going through the balcony section for anyone who wanted to get drinks...not sure about the main floor or if they even do that when it's a concert.
I have 2 extra tickets on balcony 2nd row if anyone is still looking. The balcony is only about 35 ft from the stage, so those are pretty decent seats. Selling for face value + fees. Thanks.
I'm going to be there second row and I cannot wait.....SO ecstatic and I'm taking someone that hasn't seen him in concert yet...so that will be fun!!!
So, who will be there Wednesday?? I'm gonna have a hard time focusing at work.
We gotta keep this link at the top of the list.

CANNOT WAIT...
"This countdown
To the day of "the concert" has
slowly been eating away
it's a meltdown
it's a personal torture I
never saw coming my way
I try to breathe deep
I try to find sleep
I try holding on"
Only 4 days til I am in the presence of greatness!
